This program is only 3 days long. I figured I could do anything for 3 days, right!?
The refresh is a fast, clean break. A way to drop a few pounds in a hurry (in a healthy way) or break some bad habits.
The 3-day refresh consists of three daily shakes, 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 strong.
But for me, I was trying to find 3 days with not to much on my calendar.
My friend Maria Paulerico is a coach with Beachbody, I love her instagrams she had been encouraging me to try the program. There was a facebook group and everyone was uber encouraging. Everyone shares what they are eating and feeling. I found the facebook group really really helpful. It provide inspiration and some laughs.
3-Day Refresh Nutrition Plan
- Wake-up: You’ll drink 8-12 oz of water.
- Breakfast: Shakeology with a Fruit option (list in the book )(This was the best part)
- Mid-Morning: Fiber Sweep (This was the worst part)
- Lunch: Vanilla Fresh plus Fruit option. One Vegetable Option. One Healthy Fats Option. I choose Cucumbers, Hummus and 12 Strawberries
- Afternoon Snack: Vegetable and Healthy Fat or Juice Option. I stuck with the cucumber and hummus
- Dinner: Vanilla Fresh. Dinner Recipe. I choose Kale and Pine Nuts
But there are many more choices. Check out some of the 3 Day Refresh Recipes.
I chose to eat the same things for each of the three days. I was never hungry, It was easy to follow. I could have done it longer. I wish I did it longer. Nothing feels as good as losing weight and being in control
I lost 3.6lbs and 2 inches on my waist in only 3 Days
I would do it again.
