Results are in-3 Day Refresh!

So after eating CRAP for just a few days, I found myself needing to get started with the 3 Day Refresh. I love how it always gets me on the right track to eating better and I always FEEL better. The RESULTS are in and I lost 6.0 pounds. I am doing something that makes me uncomfortable and showing my weight. One thing, I've learned in the last year is not to be a slave to the scale. In fact, I've gained weight since using Beachbody programs regularly. But I'm not upset by it because what I've gained is muscle and I haven't felt this good about the shape I'm in awhile. My clothes fit great and I feel great! 

Day 1-Day 1 of 3 Day Refresh-SO excited to start the refresh. I love the way I feel after doing and love the sleep that I get. I don’t do it to lose weight but that’s an added plus. I like to do the refresh about every 5-6 weeks, to get me back on track. A few bad meals and some unwise choices get me off track easy. Day 1 for breakfast I had a vegan chocolate shake with ½ frozen banana. Then mid morning I had a cup of green tea. An hour later I had a fiber sweep, ugh I forgot had yucky it tastes. You definitely have to chug it! For lunch I had a spinach salad with olive oil, vanilla fresh shake and a small apple. Snack was celery and homemade hummus. Dinner was a vanilla fresh and sautéed veggies. I was a little hungry tonight so I also had the vegetable broth. 

Day 2- On Day 2 I had a chocolate vegan shake with frozen cherries. It’s my favorite recipe. So I used my fruit option in my shake. I had a green tea, and then an hour later I had my fiber sweep. I packed my lunch and snacks because I was leaving for work. For lunch I had a spinach salad with olive oil, it’s so good. Along with my vanilla fresh shake and a small apple. After work I headed to a softball game so I took my vanilla fresh shake along with the sautéed veggies. I didn’t get hungry while at the game. I did miss eating sunflower seeds, as I always do this at ball games.

Day 3-Today is my last day of 3 Day Refresh. I had a great day. I had a vegan chocolate shake for Breakfast along with some berries (strawberries and blackberries). It was good. Then I had a mid morning cup of tea. So mid morning I had a fiber sweep, and today it wasn’t’ too bad. For lunch, (I had to take it with me as I was visiting schools), I had a vanilla fresh, a small apple and a spinach salad with olive oil. I found myself drinking a lot of water between meals. As a snack I had carrots and hummus. It was homemade hummus very good!  Dinner was steamed green beans and some roasted asparagus with slivered almonds. I was definitely satisfied.

Tips I have I have for you about 3 Day Refresh:

1. Make sure you look ahead and prepare. Some of my meals I repeated because it was easier when prepping and shopping.

2. When drinking the fiber sweep, drink immediately after mixing.

3. Drink lots of water, if not you could get a headache.

4. Set a timer to make sure you wait at least an hour between meals. 

5. I did find I needed the vegetable broth the first night. 

6. You CAN do without coffee for three days, I did.
