Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 11

We have made it past the half way point as today is Day 11 in the Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge! I decided to try something new today and it ended up tasting like I was drinking Lemon Meringue Pie and it was AMAZING! I truly love the French Vanilla Formula 1 shake mix since you could literally come up with a new shake everyday.  So here is what I did:

2 Scoops French Vanilla Formula 1
1 Tablespoon Lemon Pudding Mix
8oz Milk
6 Ice Cubes

Blend the above together and you have yourself a drinkable breakfast pie, what better way to start the day (I promise I am happier than I look, really not a morning person!)!

Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 10

Today is day 10 of the Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge and today I tried something different.  I have been trying to cut back on coffee and it hasn't been too bad.  In fact, I don't drink coffee for the caffeine as most do, I just love the taste of coffee.....from regular brewed coffee, to coffee milk and coffee ice cream.  So today, I made a coffee shake.  Now Herbalife has a coffee shake, Cafe Latte, but I decided to take my French Vanilla shake mix and add a single serving of Folgers Instant Coffee into it.  Here is the recipe:

2 Scoops French Vanilla Formula 1
1 Single Serve Instant Coffee Granules
6 Ice Cubes
8oz Non-Fat Milk

All of the above went into the nutri ninja and it was DELISH!  I will obviously adding this to my favorite list! Happy Hump Day All!

Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 8

Here we go, its Day 8 and the start of week two of the Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge! No better way to start the week than with a snow storm causing you to work from home on the couch with a corgi and a nice fruity shake for breakfast to get you thinking of the warmer days ahead (hopefully sooner rather than later)!

So far today (10:15am) I have checked breakfast, a conference call, some emails and shoveling off my list and I think today is going to turn out to be a very productive snow day!

Today's Breakfast Shake:

2 Scoops Orange Cream Formula 1
1 Tablespoon Banana Pudding
1 Tablespoon Coconut (a little extra to top it with)
6-8 Ice Cubes
8oz Milk

Today's Lunch Shake:

1 Scoop Orange Cream Formula 1
1 Scoops French Vanilla Formula 1
1 Tablespoon Banana Pudding
1/4 Cup Fresh Pineapple
6-8 Ice Cubes
8oz Milk

Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 6

The weekend is finally here! It is Saturday and Day 6 of the Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge.  Today I decided to take a drive and head to New Life Nutrition in Seekonk for my shake. I am starting to get my mom on track with the Herbalife products so had her come along for the ride as well (not to mention there is plenty of shopping in the area too). We arrived and had a tough choice of the many shake options they offer, you can check out some of the options here. We both decided to go with the peach tea with mango aloe and then my mom had the Pumpkin Pie Shake and I had the Pistachio Cheesecake shake.

Both were delicious but my mom def found her new go to shake and I will be putting in an order for some tea and aloe soon!

Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 5

Day 5 of the Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge started with the same orange banana shake as Day 4.  I did give the Orange Liftoff a try today as well to get this long, cold, snowy day started.  Some key benefits (from the Herbalife site) of Liftoff include:

Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 4

We are now on day 4 of the Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge and today I went back to my favorite shake flavor......Orange Cream.  I did mix it up a bit and made an Orange banana shake for breakfast which basically tasted like a nutritional Orange Julius and made me think of warm summer days during this miserable rainy morning.  So here is how I did it:

2 Scoops Orange Cream Formula 1 

1 Tablespoon Banana Pudding Mix

6-8 Ice Cubes

8 oz Fat Free Milk

As always, it all goes into the Nutri Ninja and breakfast is served! 

Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 3

So today is day 3 of our Herbalife 21 day shake challenge and let me tell you it has been a busy one. Before I started adding Herbalife to my diet, days like today would cause me to either skip meals or grab a bagel at dunks.  I was in a rush this morning and threw together the same pistachio shake as Monday (one of my favorites).

I then grabbed a chocolate coconut protein bar and some shake mix for lunch.  To mix things up a bit, I decided to make a pistachio mug cake for lunch and it was delish!

I always have some fruit in the office so I had an apple and an orange as well as the protein bar for snacks throughout the day. Here's to hump day!

Herbalife 21 Day Shake Challenge - Day 1

I have been using Herbalife formula 1 shake mix for the past few months as a meal replacement.  I started using it to assist in losing a few pounds.  I did great at first and then, like everyone, fell off track around the holidays. I haven't tracked my progress closely but have lost at least 6 inches and 7 lbs when I did track it throughout a 21 day period.

Starting today, I am participating in a 21 day shake challenge with other herbalifers.  Throughout this challenge I will be posting a photo of my shake daily and decided to share different recipes I use along the way here.  From time to time I will also post about my progress as I have taken day one measurements and will check my results on day 21 as well.

So today's shake was a Pistachio Shake:

2 scoops of French Vanilla Formula 1
1 Tablespoon of Instant Pistachio Pudding Mix
8oz of Non-Fat Milk
6 Ice Cubes
A Dash of Cinnamon

I like to put it all in my Nutri-Ninja to make sure everything is blended well.  Its a quick, easy and most importantly nutritional breakfast on the go.

Stay tuned for more recipes to come in the next 21 days!
