**Full Disclosure: This is a sponsored post as part of the Shaklee Corporation blogger program. I have received free products, online support and incentives for participating. My opinions are my own.
People following the weight-loss portion of the Shaklee 180™ Program can expect to lose 1-2 pounds per week.
After being selected as a Shaklee blogger, I was SUPER excited! I couldn’t wait to see what kind of changes would occur with the help of Shaklee180 products.
I’ve been using the Shaklee 180 Turnaround Kit for about 30 days So far, I’ve lost 5.8 pounds and 1 inch off my waist!
My thoughts on Shaklee180:
- I didn’t like that I moved from eating {mostly} well-balanced meals to using shakes & meal replacement bars. I felt like I was being taught how to drink shakes & eat meal bars, but not how to feed myself (and my family) good-for-me foods.
- I am still trying to get used to the shakes and bars.
- The shakes started off pretty chalky to me but now that I use almond milk and leave out the yogurt, they aren’t as chalky. In the beginning, I liked the first few bites of the bars, but then they seemed heavy (kind of like I was chewing for a LONG time).
- I experience MAJOR heartburn when I eat a bar or drink a shake. I don’t know what’s causing it or how to make it stop.
- The energizing smoothies are very easy to make and you can make a zillion flavors.
- I love that the meal replacement bars are easy to take with me. I always have one in my purse just in case we don’t get home before lunchtime.
I am trying to push through the taste because I feel like (in the long run) Shaklee180 will work to help me lose weight. I’ve been working out at home with some YouTube videos, and next week I am adding a once-a-week kickboxing class to my routine!

Does the Shaklee 180 program seem like something you’d try?
I agree with you on shakes and bars. To me that is not a meal. Well balanced meals are real food. I do like having health bars for on-the-go snacks though! Congrats on the weight loss though!
Keep up the great work sis!!!!
Congrats on the beginning of your journey! Weight-loss is a journey unlike any other!! Beings I’m a rather ‘boring’ kind of person I only get the chocolate flavor in the smoothies and I mix it with Chocolate Silk Light and it’s delicious!! I have not done the full 180, only the Lean & Fit and I’ve lost a total of 8 lbs in 6 wks! I feel great, my clothes fit better, and when I look in the mirror I’m liking what I see now!! Keep up the wonderful work, you’re looking fabulous! You can never go wrong when it comes to Shaklee!! It’s not just taking the weight off, it’s learning to keep it off and Shaklee teaches you that with this program.
I’ve heard of Shaklee, but am not really familiar with this weightloss program. I hope you continue to have success on this program. I look forward to reading your future posts. Thanks for sharing.
I really hope your body gets used to the program soon. In one week you’ve already lost almost 6 lbs – that’s fantastic! I appreciate all your initial thoughts on the program as it really helps set the tone for reasonable expectations.
Thank you! I’ve seen so many others that have adjusted to it so well and started to doubt myself. But, seeing those almost 6 pounds come off was a motivator! I will definitely keep at it!
Thanks for your honesty. I wonder about the heartburn, I’ll have to ask about that. Have you tried adding a small salad to your bar at lunch, that might help you or eating an apple along with the smoothee or bar? Just a thought. I hope ti gets better for you and that you meet your goals. I am here to cheer you on, support you and offer you an assistance I can! I know you can do this! So glad to have you part of the Shaklee 180 Blogger Program!
