BodyKey Review: Does it Work?
Brooke July 2, - 1: That seems high should it be at — ? A serving of Shakeology counts as 1 red container in the 21 Day Fix portion approach diet. If I drink the whole smoothie does it have to be substituted for any other cups besides the red? Alisha July 22, - 5: I am doing 21 day fix in the AM and p90x in the evening! You should always consult your primary care physician prior to starting any new fitness, nutrition or weight loss regime.
You have the chocolate shake mix, the vanilla shake mix, and a product called Sletrokor that the company claims will increase the effectiveness of the meal replacement shakes. Garcinia cambogia is fruit that grows in Southeast Asia. The gel from the aloe plant is often used as a topical treatment for sunburn and other skin conditions. However, they do provide healthy recipes you can use to change the flavor of your shakes while still using the base flavors. You can find several 18 shake recipes on the official website.
Many of the recipes make two cups worth of shake, and can be prepared in 10 minutes or less, using ingredients like ice, milk, applesauce, bananas, and natural sweetener. Each bag contains only 16 servings, so you need two bags to make it through the month at one shake per day.
Yes, there is a day money back guarantee. If you are unhappy with the product, you can receive a refund within 30 days of delivery. Any remaining items in the order must be sealed and unused. In order to get a refund, you need to give the company your name, order ID, and delivery address. One of the bigger questions surrounding such an expensive meal replacement shake. Some people love the taste of the plain shakes, while others need to utilize the recipes to stomach them.
The chocolate flavor seems to be favored over the vanilla option. Some 18 Shake diet reviews say they have gotten great results with the program. We want to take a minute to look at some of the other options out there, as well as a side-by-side comparison to some popular competitors. It contains 20 vitamins and minerals and only has one gram of fat — and no sugar.
Both of these shakes are among the most popular meal replacement options available on the market today. One serving of Shakeology has calories, so obviously 18 Shake wins in that category. Shakeology has 17 grams of protein, but their protein comes from pea protein, which is a vegan source. Both shakes use whey protein. But Shakeology wins for the variety of protein they offer. But, it contains twice as many calories, four times the sugar, only 9 grams of protein, and only 8 grams of fiber.
IdealShape comes in 15 flavors and is more affordable. Chocolate coconut, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, banana cream pie, chocolate peanut butter, cookies n cream, vanilla chai, mint chocolate, eggnog, mocha, salted caramel, chocolate cream pie, superfood blend dark chocolate stevia sweetened, orange cream, cinnamon bun, key lime, and vanilla superfood blend stevia sweetened.
It uses a different hunger blocker. Where 18 Shake uses Fibersol, IdealShake uses Slendesta — but 18 Shake contains more protein, less sugar, and fewer calories. Slendesta is a potato protein extract.
Herbalife has a bit smaller portion size, at 25g compared to the It contains less protein — only nine grams. It also contains less fiber, at only 9 grams, but this is a hefty fiber dose compared to many other competing shakes.
One container of Herbalife contains 30 servings. Not only is Herbalife more affordable, but offers a ton of flavors on top of it, making this our choice out of the two. Isagenix has a bigger variety of flavor options, like: Pumpkin Spice is a seasonal flavor, with other seasonal flavors released accordingly. Isagenix has several types of shakes.
They have one that uses whey protein like the 18 Shake, but they also have a dairy free range that use plant based proteins. The dairy free shakes are also soy and gluten free.
With that bigger portion size comes more calories, but if we cut them down to the same size roughly, Isagenix still has more sugar, more fat, and less fiber. The protein content is about the same. It is also free of soy, sugar, and gluten, contains 15g of high quality plant-based proteins, and is naturally sweetened.
Hi Salma, I currently workout in the evening and have found a whole food meal after works best. I used to do optimim nutrition whey protein after my workouts, but I feel like my body does better with whole foods now. In reference to the shakes, I have a half s bag of protein shake mix, Curves brand. How does that compare? Hi Candy, Sorry I could not find any information with the marcos or ingredients for that brand. It says in book you can switch out a yellow three times a week for 16 oz of unsweetened almond milk.
How come on shakeology recipes 4 oz counts as a yellow? Does adding almond milk to your shakes just make it creamier? Almond milk does make the texture creamier than water would. How do you meal prep? I was planning on prepping snack and lunches for the whole week? But wondering if cut washed fruits and veggies would stay fresh? Also same with cooked meat? I do not have any problems with anything going bad, but I would imagine some fruits or vegetables would not last as long as others.
Cooked meats should stay good for days. Hi Lanna, No white rice is not allowed. White rice is processed, it does not contain the same amount of nutritional value as brown rice does.
Can I subsitite non fat flavored Greek yogurt it has about two more grams of sugar than plain. Also with oatmeal is that also plain oatmeal only? Hi Nicole, Flavored yogurt is not allowed, they often artificial sweeteners. Plain rolled oats or steel cut oats, you can add your own berries or spices, but no instant oatmeals with the flavorings are allowed. This is really useful—thanks! Or will that be a detriment to my overall progress? You really should count the containers as they are meant to be.
It kind of goes against the point of the diet program if you are going to counts yellows as red. The 21 Day Fix wants you eating a balanced diet. While benas, lentils, quinoa are high sources of vegetarian protein they are also dense on carbs, that is why they are yellows.
What about green tea? Hello, I recently got the 21 day fix. Will I still get results by lowering my calorie bracket? I have a lapband and physically can not eat the amount of food it says I should eat. Hi Mallory, Do the best that you can do. Here are a couple tips — try to keep the ratio of containers as even as possible, alternate the containers you do eat over the week so you still get the balancing of the diet. I would use a tsp of olive oil and about a cup of mixed vegetables and some all purpose seasoning.
Do the veggies that you enjoy most or have on hand. I am a caffeine junkie…. Hi Marsha, Yes, on the tea with stevia. No, on the diet sodas, those contain articial sweeteners that you want to be avoiding. What kind of dressing can be used? Hi Angie, The eating plan comes with 5 recipes for dressings, mostly olive oil based. Here are the names of the dressings so you can get an idea, — balsamic vinaigrette, creamy herb dressing, lemon tarragon vinaigrette, dijon vinaigrette, and asian citrus vinaigrette.
Hi Dawn, The containers come with the program, base, deluxe or challenge pack. Check out my review from the sidebar for more information. Bethany, Are there any other vegetables or substitutes for the vegetables listed on the plan? Hi Emi, The vegetables in the fix diet are a good place for you to start. They are listed in order of most nutritious. So I guess my question is this all of the colored containers. You pack with the food you can eat.
Is this for the whole day breakfast lunch and dinner or is this for one meal at a time? Just need a lil help. Hi Lacie Jo, You match you calorie tarrget that corresponds with your calorie level.
So if it says, 3 green containers for example that means you get to fill the green container upto three times throughout the day. You could do two greens for lunch and one for dinner, or any way you like.
I have a few questions, can you provide me with the link to purchase the 21 Day fix challenge Pack, and in addition to the challenge pack I would like to order a extra set of containers to keep at work. How do I calculate my calorie intake per day. I would like to use your meal plan but how do I adjust it if my calorie per day intake is different then yours.
Is the 21 day fix ok for children to do as well? Yes, you can add on additional containers. The eating plan shows you how to calculate your calorie level, simply multiply your weight by 11, add for calorie burn, and subtract to get your calorie target.
You can use my meal plan as guide and just add in containers where needed, if I had two you could have three. Children should have parental consent as well as parental guidance for the program, I would also consult with a doctor too. Thanks to you and all the others that have posted great questions and comments.
I am currently waiting on my 21 Day Fix package and I did order the one that includes the Shakeology Chocolate and am beyond anxious to start already. My aunt is already on her 3rd week and has gotten excellent results using Shakeology. I do think the price is a bit expensive but if it will help me more, then I will do the sacrifice and continue ordering it.
What do you think? Is 18 Shake comparable to Shakeology? Thanks in advance for your response Bethany. Hi Melissa, I took a quick look.
My first impressions is it is just a cheap knock off. Frankly, it is not really even that cheap, the servings per container is so low. The amount of calories in the shake is also low because it does not really seem to contain very much. Not much I can really say, but I would stay away. It could be a company simply trying to piggy back off another. Exactly what I thought but figured someone with more experience needed to confirm my sentiments. Should I halve the water then?
Also, is this enough to have after working out first thing, or should I add peanut butter to it? Hi Lisa, I would double check the bag serving size, it should read one scoop is a serving. I always like to mix something, but you can try it both ways and see if you have more or less energy during your workout. This is extremely helpful! I am starting my 21 Day Fix tomorrow and really loved the meal planning guide as well as your take on flexibility and shakeology.
I will definitely be looking at your page for inspiration!! But, the 21 Day Fix diet is based around whole foods, eating multiple meals a day, so yes I believe it would be.
Also, if we already have an exercise regimen is that ok? Do we still need to do the videos? Would that be allowed, at all? Your website is so helpful, thank you! Hi Micah, PB2 is not listed under any of the approved food categories. The videos are not meant to be combined with another program. Again, the creamer is not listed, you would have to check into the nutritonal value on the label for what it exactly contains. You do not want stuff with added sugars. I am very interested in the 21 day fix but I have a few questions.
Is it extremely important to do the videos as well?? I run on the opposite days I am not at the gym. After the 21 days is up, where do you go from there? Start right back over?
Thank you so much, your site is so helpful!!! Mi Micah, I would not do both your gym routine and the 21 Day Fix workouts, one or the other. After 21 days of the fix, I have seen people continue the next day picking up where they have left off, take a 1 week break before beginning again, and move onto to a different program entirelym and tnow that the 21 Day Fix Extreme program has been released this is another option. I can already see the inches coming off.
I jave done work outs in the pass. But I would just eye things I would eat. I love this plan because it tell you what to eat and how much to eat. My husband and I have been doing the 21 Day Fix for a few days now and its going well but because of his hectic schedule, sometimes he cant sit down and eat the whole foods we have packed or planned on.
So my first question is, could he use the shakeology twice in one day? I am not sure if there is anything against using the shake more than once a day. Is it bad to not feed your body after your work out? Or do you have any suggestions? Any advise would be appreciated. Instead, you could try drinking a recovery shake or a fast-digesting protein shake like whey — both will help you recover more quickly, and you can find both on Beachbody. I hope this helps, but please let me know if you have any other questions.
Keep up the good work! Hello — just reviewing your site and I have a Q. I am assuming it means weight — but how much weight — in regards to bread wg.
Much thanks, Kathi Hodge. Hi Lori, No, the container system is meant to get you eating a balanced diet by ratio. If you did that you would be changing the ratio of macronutrients. The containers are not the same calorie amount either, so you would end up consuming to many or not enough calories. Hi Mara, During the summer I grill both. During the winter, I will pan fry steak on each side for a couple of minutes and then broil in the oven flipping every two minutes until cooked through.
Pork tenderlon during the winter is baked in the oven or slow cooked in the crock pot. Just a quick question…when you say you pan fry your steak and then broil, what are you cooking the meat in? Do you have to use a container for oil or something? Also, is that the same with the veggies?
Should they all be steamed only? Any help you could give would be great: Hi Courtney, I use a cast iron skillet to brown and then broil. I use a tsp of coconut oil to fry in and yes you count it. Veggies can be cooked any way you like them.
Hi Maysa, the best time to exercise is whenever you will be most likely to actually exercise and less likely to find an excuse not to. The best time is when you can most easily make the time to exercise and schedule it into your day. I am not looking to lose weight is this not the right program for me? Hi Kerri, you can do a hybrid program combining the two programs. Results will include overall toning and shaping, as well as increased strength, flexibility, and endurance.
There is quite a variety to choose from. I am in the daily caloric range. My question is how do I meet that goal per day with six meals? When I wrote out a sample meal plan for one day, I still did not have enough containers filled as recommended. Hi Kiara, you just need to eat more than one of select color containers at at your planned meals until you meet your daily requirements.
The good news is that you have a couple options. For example, add one or two fruits or even one fat to your Shakeology to make it not just a red, but a red, a purple or two, and a spoonful. Thanks for all the information!!! I know you said IdealShape is not comparable to Shakeology nutritionally…. But if I was to still use it I have two huge containers left!!
What about the Isagenix Lsalean Meal replacement shakes? From what I have read they are very similar to Shakeology so could they be infused with the 21 day fix as a red?? Maybe, yellow and red container, limiting to three times a week. Hi Bethany, Thank you for the time you put into this eating plan. It is such a help! Shakeology uses whey protein, Bodykey uses soy protein.
I would rather drink whey every day. Bodykey also uses stevia. Shaekology uses non-GMO fructose and stevia. The sodium count in Bodykey is mg, while Shakeology is mg — that is a substantial difference. And, Shakeology uses Himalayan salt, which is a naturally harvested salt with its own set of health benefits. Negligible amount, but not a great thing to see on a health food shake. Shakeology is a true health food shake and contains a huge list of superfoods, which all have their own unqiue health benefits to make you feel better than ever.
There are no superfoods in Bodykey, although they have some probiotics in there. I am weird when it comes to daily supplements, so I would definitely opt for Shakeology over Bodykey because I happen to like their ingredient list better.
Bodykey does have a lot of vitamins and minerals on their list, but for me, sugar alcohol as a second ingredient is not very impressive for a so-called healthy, meal replacement shake.
I know from my own experience that Shakeology helps me feel good, recover more quickly, and stay on track — I drink it every morning with my frozen fruit and love it. Then had surgery and just ordered the 21 day fix to get back into working out. What do you suggest?
Thanks for your time: Yes, I think using the containers with any program is a wonderful idea. As for the second round with containers, it is probably a combination of both. In a second round you will be in better shape so you can push harder during the workouts too. Hi, I am on the calorie plan- started out really well- eating the container amounts of food- losing what I hoped I would. Is it not a good idea to cut out those containers- of course that would put me below for the day- any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Slow and steady is the way to keep the weight off for good. The first week I lost 5 pounds I want to lose 15 and am in the calorie range. Second week and into 3rd have only lost another 2. Would like to know what you would advise? Hi, I would recommend eating the amount of calories that the eating guide says. Eating below calories a day is never recommended as it is not enough calories to support your internal organ to function properly.
I am started 21 day fix and I loved your meal plan. I was just wondering if you had recipes for the food? I have a problem getting my protein in and enjoy the taste and recipes you can do with P28 products!
Ive also seen some recipes that use PB2 which I also have on hand, how would that be counted?? The Fix diet wants you eating certain whole foods for the most part. Will I fail on this diet. I would never have a plate with steamed vegetables on it! Hi Kelly, Corn is not a vegetable it is a complex carbohydrate. Do you like veggies raw or roasted, there are a lot of vegetables that I do not like steamed, that I enjoy roasted with olive oil.
Maybe, this is something you could experiment with. I am wondering about the grey box you have. Are there portions for these things as well? I am unsure about how to incorporate them into their plans. Hi Heather, The grey box is the teaspoon foods from the 21 Day Fix portion approach eating plan. Honey, is that considered a yellow or a teaspoon? Also how long should we wait between 1st and 2nd or subsequent rounds of the 21 days or can we just continue seamlessly?
Ah, this brings to question: When I complete the 21 day fix, if during that time I weigh and lost say 5 lbs, do I have to readjust the calorie fix?
Yes, you would need to adjust your calorie level to your new weight for continued weight loss. Can you tell me how the Almond Breeze Coconut Milk, unsweetened can fit into the diet? Is it considered a protein or a carb? There are only 45 calories per cup so I am not sure where it would fit in.
I see in your blog the question about what color container coconut milk is. Your shopping list shows it in Blue but your responses are Yellow. Hi Tonya, This post should be used as a companion to the eating plan the program comes with. The eating plan goes into much more detail than I could ever cover. The blue is for canned coconut milk. The yellow is for carton, but there is a weekly limit on these.
So if you make your shake with unsweetened almond milk does this count as one yellow carb for the almond milk and one red protein for the shake? How much almond milk counts as a yellow? How can you lose the weight at eating calories at a higher amount than what we have always be taught? For example 56 yes old and eat calories… Thank you. Hi, If you are consuming between calories a day and burning a day, you would lose about one pound a week. And, you are right, the marketing propaganda has made weight lose a much more complex situation than it should be.
If I am pounds how many calories do I need to burn a day to lose weight? The above comment confused me. Hi Dianna, A calorie deficit a day through diet, ecerise, or diet and exercise to cause about a 1 pound loss of fat over the course of a week. You have to take into account your metabolism and activity level, not only your body weight to create a daily calorie estimate. The program does include the simple equation you need an I will be writing a blog post shortly about it.
I just ordered the program. Based on my weight I will be in the lowest calorie bracket but my husband will be in the highest calorie bracket. Suggestions on how to make food for both of us at the same time with such a big difference in portions for things? Hi Bethany, I have learned a lot from your blog! Just one question though, would I be able to use a little Stevia or raw sugar maybe a teaspoon or so in my morning coffee?
THanks for all the info. Im starting the program tomorrow. Wondering if is ok if i work out first thing in the morning then drink the shakeology shake? In other words is it ok to work out on an empty stomach? I had gastric bypass 15 months ago…94 lbs gone. Can eat whatever I like now,….. BUT, protein for most important nutrition factor. Will this work for me? I hope this helps! Hi, loving your blog, really informative.
Just a couple of questions — when measuring the rice has it been cooked first? And is cows milk semi skimmed allowed and if so what category does it fit in and how many fl oz can you have?
Rice is measured out after cooking. I want to try the 21 day fix my only problem is I have had restrictive weight loss surgery and I know I will not be able to eat as many of the containers I am supposed to do you think this program could still work for me? That being said, Nicole how far out from surgery are you? If you are still within a year out I would suggest that you just stick with the meal plan that your surgeon has given you.
I ask because I will not have time to be making separate meals for everyone with 2 under age 2! Hi Nat, most of the recipes will have serving sizes, so a recipe would use say three containers per serving. You would eat your serving size and mark down the containers.
In your example, if a recipe used only 1 red and two greens, I would double, triple, etc the recipe so it makes enough to serve your family. Hope that makes sense. You would count the mustard greens as green and turnip as yellow. I have tried Shakeology and live it and have noticed a difference in my energy and overall health. However , it can get costly so I have been trying Fitmiss Deliight … What are your thoughts?
Shakeology also keeps your digestive system regular, which also helps heighten energy levels. I currently do PiYo and I have a shake every morning. I do 8oz of unsweetened vanilla coconut almond milk and slightly less than one scoop of shakeology. I have the Arbonne shakes and do not want them to go to waste, how does it compare to the Shakeology? I am really interested in the 21 day fix plan.
I am in the calorie range. But, I read a comment from you previously that said if you want to lose, eat less….. I am trying to lose weight so should I down to the next level of calorie range?
I do workout daily if that makes a difference. Hi Christina, I rephrased my previous comment, that was not my intent for it to be taken that way. You are good at the calorie range for weight loss. The diet plan goes into more depth about the cxlore ranges for different goals. While looking at the different information available online about calorie intake, I noticed that my target caloric intake is over calories higher than calories a day.
Am I going to feel starved out on this program? Is there anyway to adjust the calories a day? HI Aj, If you calorie target to maintain your current body weight is calories, calories would be a good starting place for weight loss. And, yes you can adjust the number of calories once you get a feel for the program. But, first it would best to use the program as it is designed before tweaking it to meet your needs. I understand that shakeo counts as a protein but should one use the protein grams on the back of the bag?
Or is shakeo already counted as a red? Hi Dee, a scoop counts as a red container. You are right a scoop would not fit in a red, but that is what it is counted as. Just one of those things. So much great info!
Hi Jennifer, that is tough. But you can make it work. Here are a few ideas. Try not to eat large meals on the nights you work, keep healthy snacks handy if possible, prepare what you are going to eat before your shifts start, go light on carbs and higher in protein and healthy fats. And, be sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water through out the night. Hi Sky, it is going to be hard to follow without the containers or workouts. But, do your best, stick to a whole food diet and you will be headed in the right direction.
I have purchased the 21 day fix with shakeology. I work 12 hour shifts,making a fully balanced meal plan a bit difficult. Are there any suggestions to bes divide up the 5 meals throughout my day? Hi Cyndi, You use the containers tp portion your meals or snacks. Protein is red, berries are purple. Hi Joann, It will work, you just need to stick with it and if you have to make adjustments until it does work.
Hi Sarah, your results will be different. But, I mean if you eat a piece of cake everyday durring the program your results would be different too. I have a question about family meals. I stay home with my 2 young boys and want them eating healthier, but I have no idea where to start as far as caloric intake, portions with them, etc. Is there a resource you know of that has reliable information for how to calculate their daily needs?
Do you think I need to be as strict with them as far as portion sizes? Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated! Hi Meghan, You should not have to restrict the portions.
Hi I just ordered 21 day fix. Unfortunately Shakeology is very expensive but I do have a nutribullet and make my own kale shakes will that work for the moment? If not what can I use? You will have to break down the ingredients in the kale shake down to what they would count as in the containers.
Going to try the 21 Day Fx Challenge Pack glad to here the pack contains Shakeology too, looking forward to posting back here on my results. Particularly referring to ingredients and the expense. Just a suggestion I have really. Why not point out that when u order the challenge pack it includes the Shakeology?
Even my joints feel better!! Hi Danielle, Glad to hear Shakeology is working so well for you, I got my botfriend to start drinking it too and he said the same thing as you, that his joints felt better and were not cracking as much.
With the different colour containers and foods for each container, do you decide on what to eat for each meal? Basically you create you own recipe? Hi Danielle, Yes the 21 Say Fix is flexible in that it wants you to be able to eat what you enjoy.
So you get to be creative, and it does come with a fex basic recipes to get you going. Hi Kathy, black coffee is best. Splenda is artificial sweetener and is not recommended.
A tsp of organic coconut oil is what I recommend to people. I would just need some clarification on the serving for this program…. Great website— thank you. Hi Rose, yes it is a cooked cup, so half a yellow dry, will come out to a full yellow when cooked. I start the program on Monday October 13 and I purchased shakeology but the individual bags does that count as one scoop like if I would have the container??
Hi Gaby, yes the individual bag servings are a red container. They have had issues in the past for the following controversies:. The company has faced much criticism from customers, as well as through several high profile lawsuits. For the best results with meal replacement shakes diet our experts recommend to use it at least 5 months. Save your money buying a few bags of meal replacement product.
Any product sold by a multilevel marketing company will often be flooded with fake reviews. This is because sellers of these brands known they will earn a commission if they sell more products. Here are some verified reviews from real customers of BodyKey:. Many concerns were expressed about the taste, quality, and lack of weight loss properties. There was also a lack of appetite suppression from people. Overall, the only certified reviews about this shake were negative. There are better brands that have only natural ingredients, and a well rounded nutritional profile.
The very best shake out of goes by the name of 18Shake. This meal replacement has a blend of 2 forms of whey protein for healthy amino acids, as well as proper appetite suppression.
This shake is so well reviewed, that the company backs it up with a day money back guarantee. Thank you for the post! My friend don not like BodyKey their shake is shabby. My friend had a bad reaction to this cheap pill with upset digestive system and had an issue with a shipment. Never take supplement unless medico recomends this product! Leave this field empty.

bodykey review: does it work?
brooke july 2, - 1: that seems high should it be at — ? a serving of shakeology counts as 1 red container in the 21 day fix portion approach diet. if i drink the whole smoothie does it have to be substituted for any other cups besides the red? alisha july 22, - 5: i am doing 21 day fix in the am and p90x in the evening! you should always consult your primary care physician prior to starting any new fitness, nutrition or weight loss regime.
you have the chocolate shake mix, the vanilla shake mix, and a product called sletrokor that the company claims will increase the effectiveness of the meal replacement shakes. garcinia cambogia is fruit that grows in southeast asia. the gel from the aloe plant is often used as a topical treatment for sunburn and other skin conditions. however, they do provide healthy recipes you can use to change the flavor of your shakes while still using the base flavors. you can find several 18 shake recipes on the official website.
many of the recipes make two cups worth of shake, and can be prepared in 10 minutes or less, using ingredients like ice, milk, applesauce, bananas, and natural sweetener. each bag contains only 16 servings, so you need two bags to make it through the month at one shake per day.
yes, there is a day money back guarantee. if you are unhappy with the product, you can receive a refund within 30 days of delivery. any remaining items in the order must be sealed and unused. in order to get a refund, you need to give the company your name, order id, and delivery address. one of the bigger questions surrounding such an expensive meal replacement shake. some people love the taste of the plain shakes, while others need to utilize the recipes to stomach them.
the chocolate flavor seems to be favored over the vanilla option. some 18 shake diet reviews say they have gotten great results with the program. we want to take a minute to look at some of the other options out there, as well as a side-by-side comparison to some popular competitors. it contains 20 vitamins and minerals and only has one gram of fat — and no sugar.
both of these shakes are among the most popular meal replacement options available on the market today. one serving of shakeology has calories, so obviously 18 shake wins in that category. shakeology has 17 grams of protein, but their protein comes from pea protein, which is a vegan source. both shakes use whey protein. but shakeology wins for the variety of protein they offer. but, it contains twice as many calories, four times the sugar, only 9 grams of protein, and only 8 grams of fiber.
idealshape comes in 15 flavors and is more affordable. chocolate coconut, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, banana cream pie, chocolate peanut butter, cookies n cream, vanilla chai, mint chocolate, eggnog, mocha, salted caramel, chocolate cream pie, superfood blend dark chocolate stevia sweetened, orange cream, cinnamon bun, key lime, and vanilla superfood blend stevia sweetened.
it uses a different hunger blocker. where 18 shake uses fibersol, idealshake uses slendesta — but 18 shake contains more protein, less sugar, and fewer calories. slendesta is a potato protein extract.
herbalife has a bit smaller portion size, at 25g compared to the it contains less protein — only nine grams. it also contains less fiber, at only 9 grams, but this is a hefty fiber dose compared to many other competing shakes.
one container of herbalife contains 30 servings. not only is herbalife more affordable, but offers a ton of flavors on top of it, making this our choice out of the two. isagenix has a bigger variety of flavor options, like: pumpkin spice is a seasonal flavor, with other seasonal flavors released accordingly. isagenix has several types of shakes.
they have one that uses whey protein like the 18 shake, but they also have a dairy free range that use plant based proteins. the dairy free shakes are also soy and gluten free.
with that bigger portion size comes more calories, but if we cut them down to the same size roughly, isagenix still has more sugar, more fat, and less fiber. the protein content is about the same. it is also free of soy, sugar, and gluten, contains 15g of high quality plant-based proteins, and is naturally sweetened.
hi salma, i currently workout in the evening and have found a whole food meal after works best. i used to do optimim nutrition whey protein after my workouts, but i feel like my body does better with whole foods now. in reference to the shakes, i have a half s bag of protein shake mix, curves brand. how does that compare? hi candy, sorry i could not find any information with the marcos or ingredients for that brand. it says in book you can switch out a yellow three times a week for 16 oz of unsweetened almond milk.
how come on shakeology recipes 4 oz counts as a yellow? does adding almond milk to your shakes just make it creamier? almond milk does make the texture creamier than water would. how do you meal prep? i was planning on prepping snack and lunches for the whole week? but wondering if cut washed fruits and veggies would stay fresh? also same with cooked meat? i do not have any problems with anything going bad, but i would imagine some fruits or vegetables would not last as long as others.
cooked meats should stay good for days. hi lanna, no white rice is not allowed. white rice is processed, it does not contain the same amount of nutritional value as brown rice does.
can i subsitite non fat flavored greek yogurt it has about two more grams of sugar than plain. also with oatmeal is that also plain oatmeal only? hi nicole, flavored yogurt is not allowed, they often artificial sweeteners. plain rolled oats or steel cut oats, you can add your own berries or spices, but no instant oatmeals with the flavorings are allowed. this is really useful—thanks! or will that be a detriment to my overall progress? you really should count the containers as they are meant to be.
it kind of goes against the point of the diet program if you are going to counts yellows as red. the 21 day fix wants you eating a balanced diet. while benas, lentils, quinoa are high sources of vegetarian protein they are also dense on carbs, that is why they are yellows.
what about green tea? hello, i recently got the 21 day fix. will i still get results by lowering my calorie bracket? i have a lapband and physically can not eat the amount of food it says i should eat. hi mallory, do the best that you can do. here are a couple tips — try to keep the ratio of containers as even as possible, alternate the containers you do eat over the week so you still get the balancing of the diet. i would use a tsp of olive oil and about a cup of mixed vegetables and some all purpose seasoning.
do the veggies that you enjoy most or have on hand. i am a caffeine junkie…. hi marsha, yes, on the tea with stevia. no, on the diet sodas, those contain articial sweeteners that you want to be avoiding. what kind of dressing can be used? hi angie, the eating plan comes with 5 recipes for dressings, mostly olive oil based. here are the names of the dressings so you can get an idea, — balsamic vinaigrette, creamy herb dressing, lemon tarragon vinaigrette, dijon vinaigrette, and asian citrus vinaigrette.
hi dawn, the containers come with the program, base, deluxe or challenge pack. check out my review from the sidebar for more information. bethany, are there any other vegetables or substitutes for the vegetables listed on the plan? hi emi, the vegetables in the fix diet are a good place for you to start. they are listed in order of most nutritious. so i guess my question is this all of the colored containers. you pack with the food you can eat.
is this for the whole day breakfast lunch and dinner or is this for one meal at a time? just need a lil help. hi lacie jo, you match you calorie tarrget that corresponds with your calorie level.
so if it says, 3 green containers for example that means you get to fill the green container upto three times throughout the day. you could do two greens for lunch and one for dinner, or any way you like.
i have a few questions, can you provide me with the link to purchase the 21 day fix challenge pack, and in addition to the challenge pack i would like to order a extra set of containers to keep at work. how do i calculate my calorie intake per day. i would like to use your meal plan but how do i adjust it if my calorie per day intake is different then yours.
is the 21 day fix ok for children to do as well? yes, you can add on additional containers. the eating plan shows you how to calculate your calorie level, simply multiply your weight by 11, add for calorie burn, and subtract to get your calorie target.
you can use my meal plan as guide and just add in containers where needed, if i had two you could have three. children should have parental consent as well as parental guidance for the program, i would also consult with a doctor too. thanks to you and all the others that have posted great questions and comments.
i am currently waiting on my 21 day fix package and i did order the one that includes the shakeology chocolate and am beyond anxious to start already. my aunt is already on her 3rd week and has gotten excellent results using shakeology. i do think the price is a bit expensive but if it will help me more, then i will do the sacrifice and continue ordering it.
what do you think? is 18 shake comparable to shakeology? thanks in advance for your response bethany. hi melissa, i took a quick look.
my first impressions is it is just a cheap knock off. frankly, it is not really even that cheap, the servings per container is so low. the amount of calories in the shake is also low because it does not really seem to contain very much. not much i can really say, but i would stay away. it could be a company simply trying to piggy back off another. exactly what i thought but figured someone with more experience needed to confirm my sentiments. should i halve the water then?
also, is this enough to have after working out first thing, or should i add peanut butter to it? hi lisa, i would double check the bag serving size, it should read one scoop is a serving. i always like to mix something, but you can try it both ways and see if you have more or less energy during your workout. this is extremely helpful! i am starting my 21 day fix tomorrow and really loved the meal planning guide as well as your take on flexibility and shakeology.
i will definitely be looking at your page for inspiration!! but, the 21 day fix diet is based around whole foods, eating multiple meals a day, so yes i believe it would be.
also, if we already have an exercise regimen is that ok? do we still need to do the videos? would that be allowed, at all? your website is so helpful, thank you! hi micah, pb2 is not listed under any of the approved food categories. the videos are not meant to be combined with another program. again, the creamer is not listed, you would have to check into the nutritonal value on the label for what it exactly contains. you do not want stuff with added sugars. i am very interested in the 21 day fix but i have a few questions.
is it extremely important to do the videos as well?? i run on the opposite days i am not at the gym. after the 21 days is up, where do you go from there? start right back over?
thank you so much, your site is so helpful!!! mi micah, i would not do both your gym routine and the 21 day fix workouts, one or the other. after 21 days of the fix, i have seen people continue the next day picking up where they have left off, take a 1 week break before beginning again, and move onto to a different program entirelym and tnow that the 21 day fix extreme program has been released this is another option. i can already see the inches coming off.
i jave done work outs in the pass. but i would just eye things i would eat. i love this plan because it tell you what to eat and how much to eat. my husband and i have been doing the 21 day fix for a few days now and its going well but because of his hectic schedule, sometimes he cant sit down and eat the whole foods we have packed or planned on.
so my first question is, could he use the shakeology twice in one day? i am not sure if there is anything against using the shake more than once a day. is it bad to not feed your body after your work out? or do you have any suggestions? any advise would be appreciated. instead, you could try drinking a recovery shake or a fast-digesting protein shake like whey — both will help you recover more quickly, and you can find both on beachbody. i hope this helps, but please let me know if you have any other questions.
keep up the good work! hello — just reviewing your site and i have a q. i am assuming it means weight — but how much weight — in regards to bread wg.
much thanks, kathi hodge. hi lori, no, the container system is meant to get you eating a balanced diet by ratio. if you did that you would be changing the ratio of macronutrients. the containers are not the same calorie amount either, so you would end up consuming to many or not enough calories. hi mara, during the summer i grill both. during the winter, i will pan fry steak on each side for a couple of minutes and then broil in the oven flipping every two minutes until cooked through.
pork tenderlon during the winter is baked in the oven or slow cooked in the crock pot. just a quick question…when you say you pan fry your steak and then broil, what are you cooking the meat in? do you have to use a container for oil or something? also, is that the same with the veggies?
should they all be steamed only? any help you could give would be great: hi courtney, i use a cast iron skillet to brown and then broil. i use a tsp of coconut oil to fry in and yes you count it. veggies can be cooked any way you like them.
hi maysa, the best time to exercise is whenever you will be most likely to actually exercise and less likely to find an excuse not to. the best time is when you can most easily make the time to exercise and schedule it into your day. i am not looking to lose weight is this not the right program for me? hi kerri, you can do a hybrid program combining the two programs. results will include overall toning and shaping, as well as increased strength, flexibility, and endurance.
there is quite a variety to choose from. i am in the daily caloric range. my question is how do i meet that goal per day with six meals? when i wrote out a sample meal plan for one day, i still did not have enough containers filled as recommended. hi kiara, you just need to eat more than one of select color containers at at your planned meals until you meet your daily requirements.
the good news is that you have a couple options. for example, add one or two fruits or even one fat to your shakeology to make it not just a red, but a red, a purple or two, and a spoonful. thanks for all the information!!! i know you said idealshape is not comparable to shakeology nutritionally…. but if i was to still use it i have two huge containers left!!
what about the isagenix lsalean meal replacement shakes? from what i have read they are very similar to shakeology so could they be infused with the 21 day fix as a red?? maybe, yellow and red container, limiting to three times a week. hi bethany, thank you for the time you put into this eating plan. it is such a help! shakeology uses whey protein, bodykey uses soy protein.
i would rather drink whey every day. bodykey also uses stevia. shaekology uses non-gmo fructose and stevia. the sodium count in bodykey is mg, while shakeology is mg — that is a substantial difference. and, shakeology uses himalayan salt, which is a naturally harvested salt with its own set of health benefits. negligible amount, but not a great thing to see on a health food shake. shakeology is a true health food shake and contains a huge list of superfoods, which all have their own unqiue health benefits to make you feel better than ever.
there are no superfoods in bodykey, although they have some probiotics in there. i am weird when it comes to daily supplements, so i would definitely opt for shakeology over bodykey because i happen to like their ingredient list better.
bodykey does have a lot of vitamins and minerals on their list, but for me, sugar alcohol as a second ingredient is not very impressive for a so-called healthy, meal replacement shake.
i know from my own experience that shakeology helps me feel good, recover more quickly, and stay on track — i drink it every morning with my frozen fruit and love it. then had surgery and just ordered the 21 day fix to get back into working out. what do you suggest?
thanks for your time: yes, i think using the containers with any program is a wonderful idea. as for the second round with containers, it is probably a combination of both. in a second round you will be in better shape so you can push harder during the workouts too. hi, i am on the calorie plan- started out really well- eating the container amounts of food- losing what i hoped i would. is it not a good idea to cut out those containers- of course that would put me below for the day- any suggestions would be most appreciated.
slow and steady is the way to keep the weight off for good. the first week i lost 5 pounds i want to lose 15 and am in the calorie range. second week and into 3rd have only lost another 2. would like to know what you would advise? hi, i would recommend eating the amount of calories that the eating guide says. eating below calories a day is never recommended as it is not enough calories to support your internal organ to function properly.
i am started 21 day fix and i loved your meal plan. i was just wondering if you had recipes for the food? i have a problem getting my protein in and enjoy the taste and recipes you can do with p28 products!
ive also seen some recipes that use pb2 which i also have on hand, how would that be counted?? the fix diet wants you eating certain whole foods for the most part. will i fail on this diet. i would never have a plate with steamed vegetables on it! hi kelly, corn is not a vegetable it is a complex carbohydrate. do you like veggies raw or roasted, there are a lot of vegetables that i do not like steamed, that i enjoy roasted with olive oil.
maybe, this is something you could experiment with. i am wondering about the grey box you have. are there portions for these things as well? i am unsure about how to incorporate them into their plans. hi heather, the grey box is the teaspoon foods from the 21 day fix portion approach eating plan. honey, is that considered a yellow or a teaspoon? also how long should we wait between 1st and 2nd or subsequent rounds of the 21 days or can we just continue seamlessly?
ah, this brings to question: when i complete the 21 day fix, if during that time i weigh and lost say 5 lbs, do i have to readjust the calorie fix?
yes, you would need to adjust your calorie level to your new weight for continued weight loss. can you tell me how the almond breeze coconut milk, unsweetened can fit into the diet? is it considered a protein or a carb? there are only 45 calories per cup so i am not sure where it would fit in.
i see in your blog the question about what color container coconut milk is. your shopping list shows it in blue but your responses are yellow. hi tonya, this post should be used as a companion to the eating plan the program comes with. the eating plan goes into much more detail than i could ever cover. the blue is for canned coconut milk. the yellow is for carton, but there is a weekly limit on these.
so if you make your shake with unsweetened almond milk does this count as one yellow carb for the almond milk and one red protein for the shake? how much almond milk counts as a yellow? how can you lose the weight at eating calories at a higher amount than what we have always be taught? for example 56 yes old and eat calories… thank you. hi, if you are consuming between calories a day and burning a day, you would lose about one pound a week. and, you are right, the marketing propaganda has made weight lose a much more complex situation than it should be.
if i am pounds how many calories do i need to burn a day to lose weight? the above comment confused me. hi dianna, a calorie deficit a day through diet, ecerise, or diet and exercise to cause about a 1 pound loss of fat over the course of a week. you have to take into account your metabolism and activity level, not only your body weight to create a daily calorie estimate. the program does include the simple equation you need an i will be writing a blog post shortly about it.
i just ordered the program. based on my weight i will be in the lowest calorie bracket but my husband will be in the highest calorie bracket. suggestions on how to make food for both of us at the same time with such a big difference in portions for things? hi bethany, i have learned a lot from your blog! just one question though, would i be able to use a little stevia or raw sugar maybe a teaspoon or so in my morning coffee?
thanks for all the info. im starting the program tomorrow. wondering if is ok if i work out first thing in the morning then drink the shakeology shake? in other words is it ok to work out on an empty stomach? i had gastric bypass 15 months ago…94 lbs gone. can eat whatever i like now,….. but, protein for most important nutrition factor. will this work for me? i hope this helps! hi, loving your blog, really informative.
just a couple of questions — when measuring the rice has it been cooked first? and is cows milk semi skimmed allowed and if so what category does it fit in and how many fl oz can you have?
rice is measured out after cooking. i want to try the 21 day fix my only problem is i have had restrictive weight loss surgery and i know i will not be able to eat as many of the containers i am supposed to do you think this program could still work for me? that being said, nicole how far out from surgery are you? if you are still within a year out i would suggest that you just stick with the meal plan that your surgeon has given you.
i ask because i will not have time to be making separate meals for everyone with 2 under age 2! hi nat, most of the recipes will have serving sizes, so a recipe would use say three containers per serving. you would eat your serving size and mark down the containers.
in your example, if a recipe used only 1 red and two greens, i would double, triple, etc the recipe so it makes enough to serve your family. hope that makes sense. you would count the mustard greens as green and turnip as yellow. i have tried shakeology and live it and have noticed a difference in my energy and overall health. however , it can get costly so i have been trying fitmiss deliight … what are your thoughts?
shakeology also keeps your digestive system regular, which also helps heighten energy levels. i currently do piyo and i have a shake every morning. i do 8oz of unsweetened vanilla coconut almond milk and slightly less than one scoop of shakeology. i have the arbonne shakes and do not want them to go to waste, how does it compare to the shakeology? i am really interested in the 21 day fix plan.
i am in the calorie range. but, i read a comment from you previously that said if you want to lose, eat less….. i am trying to lose weight so should i down to the next level of calorie range?
i do workout daily if that makes a difference. hi christina, i rephrased my previous comment, that was not my intent for it to be taken that way. you are good at the calorie range for weight loss. the diet plan goes into more depth about the cxlore ranges for different goals. while looking at the different information available online about calorie intake, i noticed that my target caloric intake is over calories higher than calories a day.
am i going to feel starved out on this program? is there anyway to adjust the calories a day? hi aj, if you calorie target to maintain your current body weight is calories, calories would be a good starting place for weight loss. and, yes you can adjust the number of calories once you get a feel for the program. but, first it would best to use the program as it is designed before tweaking it to meet your needs. i understand that shakeo counts as a protein but should one use the protein grams on the back of the bag?
or is shakeo already counted as a red? hi dee, a scoop counts as a red container. you are right a scoop would not fit in a red, but that is what it is counted as. just one of those things. so much great info!
hi jennifer, that is tough. but you can make it work. here are a few ideas. try not to eat large meals on the nights you work, keep healthy snacks handy if possible, prepare what you are going to eat before your shifts start, go light on carbs and higher in protein and healthy fats. and, be sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water through out the night. hi sky, it is going to be hard to follow without the containers or workouts. but, do your best, stick to a whole food diet and you will be headed in the right direction.
i have purchased the 21 day fix with shakeology. i work 12 hour shifts,making a fully balanced meal plan a bit difficult. are there any suggestions to bes divide up the 5 meals throughout my day? hi cyndi, you use the containers tp portion your meals or snacks. protein is red, berries are purple. hi joann, it will work, you just need to stick with it and if you have to make adjustments until it does work.
hi sarah, your results will be different. but, i mean if you eat a piece of cake everyday durring the program your results would be different too. i have a question about family meals. i stay home with my 2 young boys and want them eating healthier, but i have no idea where to start as far as caloric intake, portions with them, etc. is there a resource you know of that has reliable information for how to calculate their daily needs?
do you think i need to be as strict with them as far as portion sizes? any advice you have would be greatly appreciated! hi meghan, you should not have to restrict the portions.
hi i just ordered 21 day fix. unfortunately shakeology is very expensive but i do have a nutribullet and make my own kale shakes will that work for the moment? if not what can i use? you will have to break down the ingredients in the kale shake down to what they would count as in the containers.
going to try the 21 day fx challenge pack glad to here the pack contains shakeology too, looking forward to posting back here on my results. particularly referring to ingredients and the expense. just a suggestion i have really. why not point out that when u order the challenge pack it includes the shakeology?
even my joints feel better!! hi danielle, glad to hear shakeology is working so well for you, i got my botfriend to start drinking it too and he said the same thing as you, that his joints felt better and were not cracking as much.
with the different colour containers and foods for each container, do you decide on what to eat for each meal? basically you create you own recipe? hi danielle, yes the 21 say fix is flexible in that it wants you to be able to eat what you enjoy.
so you get to be creative, and it does come with a fex basic recipes to get you going. hi kathy, black coffee is best. splenda is artificial sweetener and is not recommended.
a tsp of organic coconut oil is what i recommend to people. i would just need some clarification on the serving for this program…. great website— thank you. hi rose, yes it is a cooked cup, so half a yellow dry, will come out to a full yellow when cooked. i start the program on monday october 13 and i purchased shakeology but the individual bags does that count as one scoop like if i would have the container??
hi gaby, yes the individual bag servings are a red container. they have had issues in the past for the following controversies:. the company has faced much criticism from customers, as well as through several high profile lawsuits. for the best results with meal replacement shakes diet our experts recommend to use it at least 5 months. save your money buying a few bags of meal replacement product.
any product sold by a multilevel marketing company will often be flooded with fake reviews. this is because sellers of these brands known they will earn a commission if they sell more products. here are some verified reviews from real customers of bodykey:. many concerns were expressed about the taste, quality, and lack of weight loss properties. there was also a lack of appetite suppression from people. overall, the only certified reviews about this shake were negative. there are better brands that have only natural ingredients, and a well rounded nutritional profile.
the very best shake out of goes by the name of 18shake. this meal replacement has a blend of 2 forms of whey protein for healthy amino acids, as well as proper appetite suppression.
this shake is so well reviewed, that the company backs it up with a day money back guarantee. thank you for the post! my friend don not like bodykey their shake is shabby. my friend had a bad reaction to this cheap pill with upset digestive system and had an issue with a shipment. never take supplement unless medico recomends this product! leave this field empty. the information provided within this site is strictly for the purposes of information only and is not a replacement or substitute for professional advice, doctors visit or treatment.

The visitors took the lead through Harry Bunn’s smart finish before Ched Evans equalised after the break. Luke Hyam then put Blues back in front before Evans again levelled, this time from the spot.
And after the full-time whistle had been blown, Bond spoke to the press to give his thoughts on what he described as a “fair result” between the two sides.
The second-half was hard, in some ways, to watch. I thought we did really well in the first-half, played really well and deserved to be in front. Second-half, credit to Fleetwood, they come out and put us under pressure.
We weren’t as composed as I would have liked us to be on the ball. In truth we weren’t dominating the ball like I would have liked us to have done so, in the end, we weren’t playing as I like us to play.
Then we got ourselves in front with 10 minutes to go and then concede a penalty which, in fairness, looks like it certainly was a penalty. So overall, probably a fair result.
100%, we would have taken a point before the game. We don’t want to approach games in a negative way, but in reality, we probably would have taken a point before the game.
It’s disappointing when you’ve been in front twice [not to win] and the lads feel that really, but we’ve got to look at the positives.
I thought we made it really difficult for them to break us down and I thought we looked a threat. The two ends of the field that are most important, given the circumstances and the situation we find ourselves in with a lack of firepower.
I thought we created good opportunities for ourselves and might have scored a goal or two more on another day. I thought we looked resolute and compact, and I thought we were difficult for Fleetwood to break us down.
Powell: "It’s a great feeling for everyone, especially our supporters"
Chris Powell was full of praise for his Blues players who came from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 with promotion-chasing Portsmouth at Roots Hall.
Chris Powell continued his unbeaten run since becoming Blues boss as Southend recorded another 3-1 home win, this time against Portsmouth.

and I thought if there is a way to do this in apache. Of course I tried the above code but I'm definitely no expert at this. Does anybody know how to do it?
Thank you for your answer, I've just tried but it doesn't redirect from https://www. to https://mydomain before it fail in the SSL handshake. I guess it can not be done.
Most SSL providers allow "non-www" and "www" to work on a default SSL certificate purchased. Is this not the case with your certificate, or are you attempting to redirect between different domain names?
I purchased a multidomain certificate and didn't know that choosing mydomain.com doesn't cover www.mydomain.com. They need $25/domain to cover all the www versions. So I wanted to redirect the traffic from www to non www through https but I suppose this is not going to happen because of the the ssl handshake taking place before the redirects.. I'm not sure if a reverse proxy in the front could help.

thank you for your answer, i've just tried but it doesn't redirect from https://www. to https://mydomain before it fail in the ssl handshake. i guess it can not be done.
most ssl providers allow "non-www" and "www" to work on a default ssl certificate purchased. is this not the case with your certificate, or are you attempting to redirect between different domain names?
i purchased a multidomain certificate and didn't know that choosing mydomain.com doesn't cover www.mydomain.com. they need $25/domain to cover all the www versions. so i wanted to redirect the traffic from www to non www through https but i suppose this is not going to happen because of the the ssl handshake taking place before the redirects.. i'm not sure if a reverse proxy in the front could help.

Many on the left delighted at the prospect of Donald Trump's presidential run two weeks ago. His unique blend of megalomania and unabashed political ignorance spell obvious trouble for a Republican Party trying to evolve in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election.
But there are already signs that the effects of Trump's madness reach beyond the Republican primary. Consider that the most notable remarks he made during his kickoff speech were about how Mexico is flooding the U.S. with criminals and rapists. Instead of discussing immigration policy for the past few weeks, the media has largely been covering responses from people who apparently have to persuade the American public that Mexico is, in fact, not composed entirely of criminals and rapists. TV networks such as Univision and NBC Universal are also beginning to sever ties with him because they've been forced to reflect on collaborating with someone who thinks that Mexicans are criminals and rapists.
Trump's self-immolation is funny, but it's also a kind of tragedy. Every moment spent having to fend off outrageous statements about the immigrant population is a moment not spent addressing something that truly matters, and immigration is a massive policy domain that merits loads of attention.
If we were to have a rational debate about how the U.S. treats its undocumented immigrants, there is an angle on the policy that 2016 candidates are unlikely to touch but should absolutely consider: the "bed mandate."
The bed mandate is a law that requires the U.S. to keep 34,000 immigrants incarcerated every day, regardless of whether such a high number makes any policy sense. The rule represents a perfect storm of xenophobia, the prison-industrial complex and America's exceptional fondness for solving all of its social challenges by throwing someone in a jail cell. And there's no good reason for it to exist.
The rule: In 2009, the now-deceased West Virginia Sen. Robert Byrd slipped a quota into the Homeland Security Department's annual spending bill requiring that Immigration and Customs Enforcement "maintain a level of not less than 34,000 detention beds" at all times.
The mandate was arbitrary and unprecedented, although it wasn't entirely surprising coming from Byrd, who outgrew his staunch support for the Ku Klux Klan and racial segregation but never seemed to lose his anxiety about undocumented immigrants. According to Robert Morgenthau, the former district attorney of New York County, "No other federal or state agency is required by law to detain a specific number of people without any regard to whether the quota makes sense from a law-enforcement perspective."
The bed mandate fetishizes the idea of incarceration as an indicator of seriousness about immigration enforcement, and discards any consideration about effectiveness. It keeps the number of people who must be kept in detention the same regardless of the flow of undocumented immigrants into the country, which plunged in the aftermath of the recession. It keeps the number the same regardless of trends in whether immigration authorities consider immigrants a threat to the public or likely to avoid the legal system. And it keeps the number the same despite the availability of more cost-effective and less intrusive measures, such as electronic ankle monitors.
Morgenthau points out that the quota is particularly troubling in light of the fact that plenty of immigration detainees don't end up being deported. Plenty of them end up "languishing for months — sometimes even years — in detention facilities" before they're ever formally considered worthy of conviction. Many end up staying in the U.S.
Since the 2008 elections, Corrections Corp., Geo and Management and Training Corp., the three biggest prison operators, have donated at least $132,500 to the campaigns of members of congressional subcommittees that appropriate money to [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] and determine how much is spent on incarceration, according to the data from the Center for Responsive Politics, a Washington-based nonprofit group that tracks campaign spending."
At the moment, it's clear that the main people who stand to lose from dropping the arbitrary quota is the for-profit prison industry. Dropping the bed mandate is only one small piece of the immigration puzzle, but it's low-hanging fruit as a policy objective and a good example to set for a country in the midst of some serious soul-searching on the moral and financial costs of mass incarceration.

The Mamas and The Papas - Golden Era Vol. 2 mono?
In my search for M&P mono vinyl, I came across this on ebay (CATALOGUE NO: SL50O2) on Stateside in MONO. Are these true mono mixes or just fold-downs?
Re: The Mamas and The Papas - Golden Era Vol. 2 mono?
Well, that record contains at least one song ("Nothing's Too Good For My Little Girl") that is not known to have a dedicated mono mix. Gut feeling says fold-down, but I do not know for certain.
Are there any other The Mamas and The Papas compilation LP's that have true mono mixes on them...aside from "Farewell to The First Golden Era". This is the only one I've ever heard of having actual mono mixes...(and not fold downs).

The company has always believed in the concept of sustainability, committing itself to the development and innovation of products that ensure the highest level of respect for the environment and for people.
The goal is to supply high quality equipment that allows the carrying out of plant protection treatments aimed at the conformation of vegetation thanks to the adaptation of distribution heads.
Our mission is full customer satisfaction: considerable saving of water, time reduction and more timely intervention are the advantages of CIMA’s low volume pneumatic.
These are the values that have distinguished us for over 40 years.
CIMA SpA was founded in 1974 by the willingness to develop an innovative technique for crop protection.
The Valle Versa, in the heart of the Oltrepo’ Pavese noted for the quality of its vineyards and wines, is an adequate terrain to welcome the new operative principle (defined as Low Volume) which the production of pneumatic sprayers and dusters is based on.
The special needs of various Italian situations and the possibility to provide quality interventions that are more efficient and economically more advantageous, while respecting the ecological balance of the environment, have initiated the industrial progress of the company.
The positive response from the European viticulture market was immediate, the French one in particular: this has given us the opportunity to come into contact with situations and growing techniques different from the domestic ones, giving us the push for the design and development of personalised solutions.
The flexibility to design quality products tailored to the needs of the end user, has enabled the company to create successful solutions even for the treatment of crops that are different to vines.
The strength from matured experience and thanks to the initiatives of its leadership, at the beginning of the 1980s CIMA took its first steps outside of the European market, initially exporting to South Africa, which has warmly welcomed the innovative equipment: then requests from the United States of America, Australia and New Zealand followed.
The foreign market has allowed us to broaden our knowledge on diverse conditions and crops; thanks to the specialisation and the exchange of information with clients in the area, as well as the information and experience acquired during the experimentation and field trials, the R&D staff is always able to develop and offer the right product according to every client’s needs.
In 2000 the company made significant investments in the construction of the new headquarters, introducing ultra-modern machinery: every mechanical part is manufactured inside the factory to ensure the total Made in Italy supply chain.
In the last decade, thanks to the conclusion of important trade agreements with countries such as India, Kenya and Egypt, export represents 85% of sales.
CIMA SpA is already working for the future: as always, commitment and energy are dedicated to the carrying out of products that are constantly at the forefront of respecting the environment.

In April 2017, a fire broke out in UW-Milwaukee’s Peck School of the Arts’ Mainstage Theatre causing significant damage to the theater seats, scene shop, backstage space, and lighting system. Clearwing Systems Integration was contracted to reconstruct the rigging and lighting systems, renewing just a portion of the $5.7 million of damage throughout the building.
The rigging system in UWM’s Mainstage space was original to the building with authentic and vintage parts from when the space first opened over 50 years ago. The install included counterweight linesets for moving scenery up and down over the stage, masking curtains to block the audience’s view of backstage, and a grand drape to complement the theater decor. These updates provide a new sense of comfort and security in the educational space.
Rigging components were provided by H&H Specialties, a distinguished national supplier of stage rigging equipment; drapes by Bellatex, a leading manufacturer in stage drapery; and a fire safety curtain by Thermotex, designed to contain fire and provide separation between audience and stage in the case of a fire in the future.
The lighting portion consists of new dimmers, house lights, architectural control, and system networking by Electronic Theatre Control out of Middleton, WI. The new system is capable of controlling both older-style incandescent stage fixtures, as well as new technology like LEDs, moving lights, and effects projectors. Because it is based on network infrastructure, the lighting control is flexible and allows for expandability as the needs of the University and its productions change over time.
