3 Day Refresh

On February 18, 2016 I started the Beachbody Product, 3 Day Refresh.  I’m not going to lie; those 3 days were TOUGH!  I considered giving up, but realized that wasn’t an option anymore!  I had started this thing and I was going to see it through.  It was ONLY THREE DAYS!  I knew I could do it!  The most difficult things were eating according to the plan and drinking those darn drinks!  I take that back; the drinks were the absolute hardest! 

Allow me to break down the details of the 3 Day Refresh.  Start your day right with a big glass of filtered water!  Breakfast: Shakeology with a fruit option.  You’re allowed to drink some morning tea if you desire.  Mid-morning: Fiber Sweep (this is the tough one).  Lunch: Vanilla Fresh Shake with fruit, veggies, and a healthy fat option.  Afternoon snack: veggie and a healthy fat.  Have another cup of tea.  Dinner: Vanilla Fresh Shake, one serving from the dinner recipes list, and an optional organic veggie broth.  Want more tea?  Go ahead. 

PRODUCT DETAILS:
Shakeology is packed with superfoods that your body craves!!!


          I used my shaker cup that came with my kit to make my shakeo… big mistake.  While it still tastes good, blending it with water AND ice is SOOOOO much better!  It took me a while to have my taste buds acclimate to the refined taste, but it is so good to me now.  I expected it to be sweeter than it is, but like that I can add fruit without it being OVERLY sweet. 

Fiber Sweep gently and naturally eliminates waste from your digestive system with its patent-pending blend of whole ground flax, chia, and psyllium seed husks. Psyllium can help lower cholesterol, support healthy blood sugar levels, and may even reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, as part of a healthy diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol.                Again, I found this drink to be very difficult to swallow… literally.  I also used my shaker cup the first time which made it kind of clumpy and harder to handle.  My second day it was easier to handle and I credit that to blending it and CHUGGING it!  By the third day I got it down so quick that it didn’t bother me at all. 

Vanilla Fresh Shake is a protein-rich formula that helps curb your hunger with more than 20 grams of wholesome plant-based protein, 22 essential vitamins and minerals, probiotics for digestive health, and a patented potato protein extract clinically tested to satisfy your appetite.
          This shake is quite different from shakeology.  While both of them are packed with nutrition, I think I initially liked this shake better.  ONCE AGAIN, I used my shaker cup the first time and it was alright, but once I put it in the blender with a couple pieces of ice… it was A-mazing!!! 

Overall, I enjoyed the 3 Day Refresh!  It helped jump start my weight loss and helped me see how important it was to eat specific to the plan.  You will find my results below that I am very proud of. 
Was it worth it?  Absolutely!!!  Would I do it again?  I’ve already placed an order for my second one and will start it within the next month… I’ll share why I’m waiting for a specific time in an upcoming post.  If you’re interested in this Beachbody product, I invite you to check out my website: teambeachbody.com.  If you have any additional questions, please leave them in the comments below!
