I just won a Facebook workout challenge and won a weeks worth of shakology shakes. Seems to have too much sugar to be an ip alternative. Anyone ever drink these?

I have drank them in the past. I don't know how they compare to IP. If you won a single weeks worth, it's only 7 packets . . . maybe sell on E-bay! Then use the money to purchase something you know is IP approved

That's a great idea pinky!

You could use them on IP but they would have to be counted as a restricted item due to the carb count and the calories - sugar content is accounted for in the carbs, so you want to make sure you are looking at the calories, carbs AND protein when comparing to IP.

Now, whether you want a shake as your restricted for the day is up to you....personally I prefer having a "treat" for my restricted, but that's just me

I was given one to try and they are yummy, and I used it in maintenance because of the high counts. Cheaper to just do a real smoothie in maintenance though. I wouldn't bother selling them but just use one once in a while as a restricted when travelling or keep in your car for emergencies only - better than eating totally off plan.
