MY STORY BEGINS HERE:
I like to think of myself as a pretty clean eater.
Sure, I love pizza, cookies and the occasional Taco Bell, but for the most part, I make my meals and I eat foods from the outer sections of the grocery store aka fruits, veggies, and meats.
I like to spiralize noodles instead of have pasta. I seriously do love vegetables and could eat them almost all day (especially steamed or sauté), and I make 'nice' cream instead of binge on ice cream because I truly know I feel a lot better without artificial sweeteners, preservatives, and extra processed foods.
But again...I like pizza, cookies and the occasional Taco Bell. I'm human.
Well after a little too much of those extra cheats in my life, I had started to feel really nauseous. It was just a little here and there, truly not much, but my stomach was truly upset with me. "YAY, I'm pregnant again!" was my initial thought, but 4 tests proved me wrong :( So then I thought, oh nausea, here come my cycle, but nope, that wasn't it!
I realized it really was my little cheats here and there creeping in that left me feeling sick. I had let my 90/10 rule of eat clean 90% of the time, indulge 10% move more towards a 70/30 and that's just not something my body can handle.
So I decided to give the 3 Day Refresh a try.
I actually didn't do this to lose weight, although it's a great tool for helping with that. I just did the 3 Day Refresh to feel better. All in all, I lost 1.5 lbs and 1.5 inches in my bloated belly.
Here's a video breakdown of my thoughts and feelings of the VERY FIRST TIME I did the 3 Day Refresh - cleaning up my body - process.
f you are interested in giving this a try, let's chat, see if this is right for you, or find something that may work even better for your goals. Helping people is what I do, I share what I'm doing, my experiences, and my knowledge to help you find something that could work for you. It may be a Beachbody program, it may not. I've tried a lot of programs within Beachbody and lots of them outside of Beachbody. I'll recommend to you what could be best, and have helped may people find the perfect one for them. From those that want to join our accountability groups, to those that just want a little information to get them going solo, it's what I love doing and I'm here to help :)
The easiest way to catch me is on Facebook
Next would be email - [email protected]
Next after that would be here via the blog at the Contact Me section
Here's my breakdown day by day
DAY 1
Thoughts
HOLY S**T THIS F***ING SUCKS!!!!
I'M SO HUNGRY
I hate today
Hey, I'm not nauseous
Hmm, it's now 7pm and I actually feel okay
Alright, that wasn't so bad...I'm just a bit of a baby
Meals
***Lots of water - I mean like over 100 oz***
Cafe Latte Shakeology, 10oz Water, 2/3 C frozen blueberries
Chai tea to hold me over
Fiber Sweep with cinnamon added - mixed just enough water for pudding consistency (LOVED IT!)
Vanilla Fresh, 10oz water, 1/2 C frozen grapes
2 carrots cut up (it called for 1/2 a large but screw that), 1.5 t almond butter
1 G containers (1cup) Spaghetti squash with 1 t coconut oil
Chai tea
Coconut steamed veggies - broccoli, carrots, cale and coconut oil + salt free seasonings
Vanilla Fresh with cinnamon made into pudding consistency = dessert YUM
1/2 C Beef Broth, it calls for veggie broth, but we had beef so that's just what I went with
Workout
Walking around the mall with 2 of my mom friends and our kiddos - we did 2 or 3 laps, can't remember
DAY 2
Thoughts
I feel amazing this morning
I have energy
I mean A LOT of energy
I'm a freaking rockstar, this is awesome!
I'm not even crazy hungry
Meals
***Lots of water - I mean like over 100 oz***
Vegan Chocolat Shakeology, 10oz Water, 1 drop mint extract
1/2 banana
Chai tea
Fiber Sweep with cinnamon added - mixed just enough water for pudding consistency
2 carrots cut up, 1.5 t almond butter

1 cup cucumbers and 2 T hummus
Chai tea
Coconut steamed veggies - broccoli, carrots, cale and coconut oil + salt free seasonings
Vanilla Fresh with cinnamon made into pudding consistency
1/2 C Beef Broth
Workout
Body pump with a friend - I had 1/2 my carrots before and 1/2 after class followed by my Vanilla Fresh AM meal
4 Mile Hike with the Hike it Baby group
note, I was not going to workout, but had been asked to do these events and I was feeling good, so I did them....I do not recommend this. I think if I had done one, not the other, I would have been better off :)
DAY 3
Thoughts
I feel pretty great this morning
I have good energy, but not as much as yesterday
I totally over did it yesterday
I'm a little bit hungrier today
Meals
***Lots of water - I mean like over 100 oz***
Exact same as Day 2 only an apple instead of a banana in the morning
I may have cheated and had part of my daughters PB, Banana Tortilla Wrap Up ;)
Workout
Walking around the park and from store to store in an outdoor shopping area with the little one.
All in all, would I do it again? Absolutely. If I'm feeling as nauseous as I had been, then I know I need to make a clean and quick break of the extra trigger foods.
Having the fiber sweep to help clear out my digestive system and help get my intestines healthier along with my loved Shakeology full of superfoods to nourish my body, and the Vanilla Fresh protein to help stabilize me throughout the day, these tools were fantastic at getting me back on track.
I have some friends that do it once a month as a 'tune' up, others that do it seasonally to help cleanse when needed, and some that just need it at the beginning of their journey.
Update I have done this 4 times now and these were my holiday 2018 Results
