My (non juice fast) 3 Day Cleanse ((updated)) RESULTS ARE IN! **At the bottom**

So, my life has been so insanely crazy busy lately that I've not been able to do a juice fast but I still need a cleanse, especially after my birthday celebration, right?

I don't know if I'm the only one but man, the cravings have been hitting me HARD lately.

So anyway, I got myself the 3 Day Refresh for my birthday (today!). I won't be starting the 3 day cleanse today....I probably won't even get the package until Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. But I am so excited!




Okay, okay.

So what IS the 3 Day Refresh, exactly?
It is a scientifically designed program that helps you fast-track your weight loss, kick-start healthy eating, and get a clean break from bad nutrition habits.
The 3-Day Refresh is a simple, straightforward program that will help cleanse your body and improve the way you feel—without starving yourself. Unlike juice cleanses or liquid fasts which tend
to be high in sugar and low in protein (leaving you feeling weak, hungry, and sluggish), this easy-to-follow program helps support your metabolism while nourishing your vital organs.

For 3 days you’ll follow a program of 3 shakes a day, a fiber drink, plenty of filtered water, plus a wide array of fresh fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats throughout the day to keep your energy and metabolism going.

So, I'm going to be cleansing WHILE eating so that I don't experience those terrible detox symptoms! I'm really, REALLY pumped about that!

What's different about this than other cleanses?
As I found out the hard way after losing my hair, juice cleanses and other popular short-term cleanses provide incomplete nutrition promoting muscle loss instead of fat loss and can cause a rebound due to the lack of adequate protein, low fiber, and/or high sugar levels. Many juice cleanses range from $50–$70 per day, while this 3-day program is only $23 per day for the Complete Kit.
Here is what to expect:
The 3-Day Refresh is a low-calorie program (about 900 calories a day) but because the shakes and fresh food selections are high in protein and fiber, they will help keep you satiated throughout the day.
  • Because this program is packed with fiber, if you don’t already have a diet that’s high in fruits, veggies, and whole grains, it’s a good idea to prepare for the 3-Day Refresh by eating a large salad and/or a few servings of fresh veggies throughout the week leading up to it.
  • If you get a little gas or bloating, this is a sign that you need to up your fiber levels in general. Fiber promotes satiety, balances blood sugar, promotes cardiovascular health, and keeps your digestive tract functioning.
  • If gas is an issue, we’ve highlighted the “low gas-producing” options in the veggie list and dinner recipes in the menu guide.
  • It’s also incredibly important to stay hydrated during the 3-Day Refresh. Water is the body’s lubricant and is required for every major process. It keeps your digestion flowing, flushes out toxins, keeps your system balanced, and helps control hunger. We recommend drinking half your body weight in ounces every day. So, if you weigh 150 pounds, you should be drinking at least 75 ounces of filtered water every day.
I am just so excited! I have a two different friends who have lost just over 6 lbs in the 3 days! Trust me, I could stand to lose 6 lbs.

And what happens during the cleanse?
For 3 days you’ll have a superfood-packed Shakeology shake for breakfast along with a fruit option; a Fiber Sweep digestive health drink later in the morning; a satisfying, high-protein Vanilla Fresh shake for lunch, accompanied by fresh fruit, vegetables, and healthy fat options throughout the afternoon. For dinner, you’ll have another Vanilla Fresh shake along with your choice from a list of delicious, easy-to-prepare dinner recipes. You can also have tea twice a day and as much filtered water as you like (we suggest you drink AT LEAST half your body weight in ounces per day).

The part I am most excited about is that you don't have to go through a miserable detox to start feeling better! So we can start this WHENEVER!

I was BLOWN AWAY!

I had a lot of water weight, obviously. I do NOT think it's normal to lose 11 lbs in 3 days.

  • I started off thinking that I was going to have a hard time with the hunger (I think everyone is!!) but the truth is, I had a hard time getting in all of the food and shakes. I was NOT hungry!
  • I did get a little tired that first day, but that could have been because I didn't get a good night's sleep the night before.
  • After the first day, I woke up with a LOT MORE energy than I normally do! It felt GREAT! I had a terrific 2nd day.
  • And on the third day, I kept forgetting that it was really already the 3rd day! I wasn't counting down the hours until I could eat something other than fruit or veggies!
I think we can all use a little reality check in our lives from time to time. Actually, I think it's HEALTHY to have a reality check from time to time.

The truth is I've been slacking with my diet. I've been very successful at coaching other people and telling them what to eat and what not to eat. Why don't I follow my own advice?!?! I don't know. But this showed me that a ton of that weight was from all of the poor eating leading up to the cleanse.

I am SO GLAD that I decided to do the 3 Day Refresh!!!
