  • 3 Day Refresh and a Favorite Recipe

    3 Day Refresh

    My “team-player” of a husband and I just finished up our 3 Day Refresh challenge and I wanted to fill YOU in on all of it!  If you’ve never heard of it, it’s a 3 day cleanse to reboot your system, pave the way for some new healthy habits, try new food combinations and just let your body REST.  There are a lot of healthy fats and proteins incorporated so you feel satiated and full most of the time.  Most 😉

    Here’s the deal.  I like to eat.  I enjoy food.  You’ll never hear me say I forgot to eat or catch me not thinking about my next meal.  It’s who I am.  Luckily, I’ve learned how to eat CLEAN with portion control thanks to my fit tribe and favorite trainers.  I have taught myself to enjoy kale, salads and use way less condiments and cheese.

    So, to do a three day cleanse like this is not my STYLE.  I come from a background of binging on sugar, snacking too late at night, fast food a few times a week and using food to cover up what I was really feeling.  I used it to cope. 

    I know that is NOT healthy but it’s what I fall back on most when I lose my footing on my journey. Once in awhile, I stop…re-evaluate things, take a break and just say “no” for a bit.


    The highlights:

    Matt lost 9 lbs and 5 inches around his midsection!!

    I didn’t lose weight but an inch off my waist and feel lighter, TIGHTER 💪🏻and more energized!  On our team we focus on Non-Scale Victories so I’m NOT sad one bit!  

    In the past when I’ve completed this 3 day cleanse, I’ve lost up to 5 lbs!  3-5 lbs is normal for most women to lose.

    We loved the nine different dinner options and veggie combinations.  I was REALLY happy with the fruit allowance, too.  We did it over the weekend so it was nice to see how much self-control we truly possessed when we put our mind to something.  



    Also, lots of walking and sleep!  Hence the name of the 3 day cleanse { REFRESH } Our little date walks were nice since the kids were sleeping over with Grandma and Grandpa.  You will want to do yoga, light exercise and/or walking only.  On 900 calories, strenuous workouts would make you feel really light headed and weak.

    This is PERFECT for you if you need a break from all the toxins and craziness of life.  If you are headed on vacay or just coming home and need to kick start your bod! It’s also good to have something spelled out for you so you don’t have to think or map it out yourself!

    Before I go, I’d love to SHARE the dinner I ate all three nights and still have a few times a week.
