June three day refresh

So I decided I needed a good cleanse/detox! I had been sleeping pretty bad lately...hard falling asleep...waking up for odd hours during the night...so thought what the heck...let's try this again!!! I waited until I was done with the my Body Beast/Insanity hybrid. I finished that on June 4th (a Saturday)...started the refresh June 5th and ended today June 7th!!
So what is it?


What's included in the package:
〰 3 days worth of shakeology, fiber sweep, and a vanilla refresh!
〰 program guide
〰 guide to maintain once done
〰 me as your coach supporting you (while doing it at the same time).

Detox yourself...cleanse yourself...feel refreshed...lose weight....all while enjoying superfoods and real food...

 
So I started my day with water...

I would make sure to have this as soon as I woke up and walked down the stairs...


I then would have my Shakeology. I went with vegan chocolate for my refresh. Now here is a tip to share..I decided to mix my one fruit in the shake. I went with 1/2 of a medium banana. Now tip one..you will not have anything to eat until lunch. It was hard for me not to have anything to eat until about Noon...the last time I ate something was around 5 pm the previous nights. So if you think you are going to miss "eating" something...don't mix the fruit in your shake! I did it for all three days...mixing the fruit with shake..but just wanted to share :)


Next up was the optional cup of green tea. I did this all three days in the am only. By the time the afternoon and evening optional ones came around...in all honesty I wasnt in the mood for the cup of tea. So totally up to you if you do it!
Next up is the fun part..the fiber sweep!!! One time I put it in a bottle and shook it!! Not as good!! Do not do this!! LOL! I had to because we were out on Sunday but wanted to gag...and it's bad tasting enough on it's own. LOL!! I recommend putting it in your blender with your water...pour it in a cup and chug as fast as you can!!!! Really the worst part of the whole deal if you ask me!!! Not sugar coating it...hahaha!! But just chug and get it done!
Lunch time!!! I made mine the same for all three days!! I had red pepper and hummus!! So delicious.




Now with your lunch also comes the vanilla refresh! For some reason I didn't take a picture of it at lunch time. Now for lunch you are allowed a fruit..at dinner you are not! 
You will notice that there are two different plates for lunch. The first day I put my fruit (strawberries) into the shake. I personally did not like the consistency of the shake with the fruit in it. So I switched it up and had the blueberries on the side for my lunch the last two days.  It was so yummy to get to the food by this point of the day!!!

Snack time!! Yes I got five baby carrots and hummus!! I kept the snack the same for the past three days! Simple and yummy!




You can also throw in a tea between snack and dinner...I was not in the mood for it on the last two days. I just drank a lot of water.

Next up was dinner...
Love this salad. The recipe for it is in the program guide. Ate this all three days. The best part of doing the refresh during the summer...the produce and fruit is so yummy this time of year!
You also get a vanilla shake during dinner. You cannot add fruit to it. I added cinnamon to my lunch and dinner shake. I also put it in the blender to get it the consistency that I enjoy! 

Again you get a tea..but I just drank more water!

That's a wrap:
 
Let me tell you..keep your self busy while doing the refresh! On sunday we had a family fun day...shopping at three different stores...the boys were at lunch (torture)...more shopping..hanging up new pictures we just bought!! Busy was our word of the day. I was so busy that I got off track for the time suggestions in the program guide. Now Monday was a LLOOONNNGGG day!!! I was miserable! I was so hungry all day long and only thought of food..haahah!! I knew today (Tuesday) I wanted to be strong...so I kept myself busy with the kids...cleaned out their closets..organized..cleaned the floors. I felt so much better all day long. So something to think about is keep yourself busy!
Definitely feeling less of a bloat...sleep was awesome the past few day...I dont have a scale at home so not for sure if I lost any weight..but I'll try to find something to go by! Hahah!!! I'll share my after pictures tomorrow!! I think that this is something that I'll do about every other month...something similar just to detox myself. I notice the difference!! 
Hope that this helps and if you have any questions let me know!
