Well that brings me to the 3-Day Refresh!
First off, it's just 3 days. Even a chronic failure like me can do something for 3 days!
I'm starting to make changes in my diet and adding in exercise and I know it takes time to see results but darn it, I want to see something NOW. I want that push to keep going another week. Knowing I was headed into a new 3-day commitment to clean eating found myself binge eating and wanting lots of those treats I've been eating too much of. I needed something to help me refocus on my goals and set myself up to rocket up my results for the next 30 days.
That's what the 3-day refresh did for me. Since it's all about getting good fruits and veggies in along with protein I was able to give myself a break from sugar and carbs to get my body adjusted to my clean eating plan for the next 30 days, and beyond.
The first day went good. I had a Shakeology for breakfast along with 12 frozen strawberries. Mid-afternoon I had a fiber rich drink called Fiber Sweep. Lunch was a veggie based protein drink along with a serving of fruit, vegetables and a healthy fat- carrots and guacamole was my go-to for this. Afternoon snack was another serving of vegetables and healthy fats. Dinner was another protein drink and a plate of vegetables and a healthy fat. Green tea and low-sodium vegetable broth were also incorporated throughout the day. And water, half your body weight in water. Ex; 150lbs = 75oz of water.
I can tell you that dinner had me FULL. I usually had to space it out a little because I was so full.
Throughout the process I wasn't starved and because you're eating every few hours you're constantly getting fuel for your body. Everything is nutrient loaded and the focus is on clean, veggie treats.
Now my results!
As you can see I lost 5 pounds and 2" off my hips! I was really impressed how my lumps and bumps were a lot smoother. The spillage over the top of my waist band was a lot less and my pants were loose.
And all this was after 3 days!
Just the jump start I needed to get through my next month of workouts and eating clean.
If you're ready to get some results now with fruits and veggies and protein that will leave you feeling full and energetic as you're working on your fitness or maybe to get back on track after a vacation contact me for additional info. I'd love to be your support through the first 3-days of your new lifestyle.
