My 8th Day GoodBelly 12 Day challenge update was more or less identical to the first: I’m still loving the products (minus the strawberry flavor), and my stomach hasn’t felt this ‘calm’ in a looooong time.  Two thumbs up for GoodBelly!

So, Sunday the 24th of April, concluded my 12 day challenge!  And I’m in loooove.  Especially with the quart-sized portions (partially because they pack more for the money…yes I’m a penny-pinchin’ grad student), which I had in now my second favorite flavor: Pomegranate Blackberry.

(Okay…So I haven’t done that for real…yet )

My overall consensus?  Flavors: Mango still takes the cake…as it probably always will in my book, but the Pomegranate Blackberry is tasty!  I loved the BigShots, because I could pack them with me, but I loved the quart because I could take as much/little as I wanted.  I’ve also been thinking about incorporating a bit into my morning smoothies…  I’ll let you know how it goes!

I love the fact that GoodBelly is a way to incorporate probiotics into my diet without having to take a pill, or eat soy yogurt.  Because as much as I love soy yogurt, sometimes I just am not in the mood.  I also love the variety of flavors, the fact that there are to-go packets.  Oooo!  I also love that they JUST released some new products into the line, including GoodBelly Coconut Water!

Eeee!  I can’t wait to try it!
