ReplyDeleteHi Beth! :D heheh
DeleteI already have T25 and have been following your 5 day meal plan (substituting a whey protetin powder for Shakeology) and doing T25 this week and I'm already seeing results! Thank you! But, now I need a plan to follow going forward. I have ordered Shakeology so I'll be able to have shakes for breakfast but I really need something to follow. Do you have any suggestions?
