3 Day Refresh Results


About a month ago, my husband and I did the 3 Day Refresh..and YES I am just now blogging about it!



I just want to start by being completely honest and tell you that I avoided doing this like the plague! I hate the thought of doing a "cleanse." I was terrified that I would get headaches, feel sick, and I hate the thought of someone telling me what I can and can't eat. One of our friends did the 3 Day Refresh and got amazing results, so my husband and I thought we needed to jump on this bandwagon and check it out! 

Andrew and I eat pretty clean the majority of the time, but I could tell a couple of our food choices that we had been making recently were catching up with us. We had the bloat, we were lacking energy, and our poo needed some change! We also just came back from a week of summer camp with our high schoolers, and let's just say camp food isn't the cleanest. During summer camp, we made the healthiest choices that we could, but it's hard when you aren't preparing the food yourself. I drank my Shakeology every day, so I was getting my superfoods in, but following the 80/20 rule was really hard.


And of course, the 3 Day Refresh worked!! We both felt great after the three days and surprisingly we had no headaches, grumpy attitudes, or starvation. Andrew and I loved that we felt a lot better than we did even before we went to summer camp!


Over the course of the three days, I lost 3 lbs!! I wasn't too concerned about losing weight more than getting back on track and feeling better. I loved having my energy back and not craving sugars or carbs. The biggest surprise was when I got out of bed the third morning and my bloat was completely gone!! My belly was the smallest it had been in years. It was such an awesome feeling knowing that it was working!!



On the 4th day, my husband weighed in and we were both astonished by what the scale had said, that he did a couple double takes!! Andrew lost TEN POUNDS IN JUST THREE DAYS!! How crazy is that? Let's just say we are super big fans of the 3 Day Refresh now and you will most likely see us doing it again.


What is this 3 Day Refresh? It is a 3 day cleanse that helps you regain control of your food choices, kickstart your weight loss, and help give your body get a clean start it needs to continue making healthy lifestyle choices.

It has specially formulated shakes, easy-to-prepare clean meal recipes, and healthy snacks that have been scientifically designed to help detoxify your body and dramatically improve the way you feel—without starving.
Why should you do the Refresh?
  • You need a break from unhealthy eating.
  • You used to eat okay but have recently made some bad habits and need a new fresh start.
  • You want to jumpstart healthy eating habits for a new workout program.
  • You need to quickly lose a few pounds for an upcoming event.
  • You’ve never been a healthy eater, but are ready to kick-start better nutrition for the first time.
  • You want your clothes to fit better.
  • You want more energy.
  • You’ve tried liquid fasts or other fad diets and they simply don’t work.

What does a day look like while refreshing?

Water, lots and lots of water!  In addition to the water, you drink in your shakes and teas, we recommend you drink at least half your body weight in ounces of water each day. (even off the refresh!)
  • Breakfast:  Shakeology, plus one fruit option
  • Morning Tea:  1 cup of unsweetened herbal or green tea
  • Late Morning:  Fiber Sweep, a digestive health drink
  • Lunch: Vanilla Fresh shake, plus 1 option from the fruit list, 1 option from the vegetable list, and 1 option from the healthy fats list
  • Afternoon snack: 1 option from the vegetable list, and 1 option from the healthy fats list
  • Afternoon tea: 1 cup of unsweetened herbal tea (caffeine free)

Sweet Potato & Apple Casserole

Image
This is one of my all-time favorite dishes that I have created. It's a dish that I'll make for dinner to go with some pork chops or I'll make it around the holidays to take to parties for dessert. This is a great fall dish but can be cooked all year-round for multiple occasions. Try it as a dessert or a side and let me know what your family thinks!  Ingredients: 2-3 medium sweet potatoes 3-5 apples (I used gold delicious once and it was surprisingly good!) 1 tbs olive oil 1 tbs lemon juice 2 tbs cinnamon 1 tsp nutmeg 1 cup of walnuts/pecans --topping and optional Directions: 1. Preheat oven at 350F. Peel the sweet potato and place it in the microwave with water to steam it. Then cut it up into cubes. 2. Wash and cut apples into cubes, sometimes I take the peeling off and sometimes I don't. This is usually a personal preference, so if you don't like the apple peeling, feel free to take it off. 3. Put apples and sweet potatoes in a bowl to mix wi

Healthy General Tso Chinese

Ever want Chinese but don’t want the guilt and bloat of ordering the buffet or an overloaded to-go order? My husband and I LOVE Chinese food but really don’t like the discomfort it brought to our bellies once we started eating healthier. When we lived in Fort Thomas, KY in the winter of 2016-2017, we CRAVED Chinese almost every day so we needed to find a healthier solution or we were going to reap the consequences of all the sodium, refined carbs, and high calories. We also needed something quick and easy to meal prep for lunches during the week. After lots of researching and trying different recipes, I found a great way to make this favorite Chinese dish at your home with friends and family. I looked online for recipes to make it homemade but never found anything that I liked or that wouldn’t cost an arm and a leg to make. I have made homemade sesame seed chicken, but it turned out too salty and I didn’t want that to happen also. So when shopping at Kroger, I found a Genera

Favorite Oatmeal

Image
I absolutely love Oatmeal, which is crazy because if you asked me five years ago, I wouldn’t touch the stuff. I had no clue what I was missing out. Oatmeal is a great lean carb that gives your body energy to do normal day activities or even more energy to workout. Carbs are great for your body, just make sure you eat the good ones, not the bad ones. I love old fashioned rolled oats, they are easy to make and turn out every time. I love my oats thick without any water or milk left in them. When you make them, you can make them runny by adding more liquid to them.  When following the Fix Portion containers, I usually use two carbs for oatmeal in the morning. It helps provide the energy needed for the day after a good workout!  Favorite Oatmeal 1 cup of old-fashioned rolled oats 2 cups of water Dash of salt to taste Optional Toppings - tbsp. of PB - tbsp. of chocolate chips - dash of cinnamon to taste - 1 cup of fruit Boil 2 cups of water in a medium sa
