The Results Are In For 3 Day Refresh

I told you all I would share my results from doing the refresh with you today :-) So here they are!

Before and After Photos and Stats:

Before 3 Day Refresh

After 3 Day Refresh

Total weight lost: 3.1 pounds.
Total inches lost: 1 1/2 inches.

Not as amazing results as some and not quite what I was hoping for, which was 5 pounds and 3 inches... But, for 3 days with little exercise I think it was worth it! (I'm secretly telling myself I just didn't completely blow it during the holidays, so I didn't need to 'refresh' as others ;-)

What I liked about the program: It was very structured with specific drinks and a VERY specific eating plan. I found the structure to be helpful, and didn't find myself cheating at all! I liked that it was very short term, anyone can do anything for 3 days! I also liked that it really jump started me into 21 Day Fix, and that after following the eating plan from refresh 21 DF eating plan seems glorious ;-)

What I struggled with: Drinking so many shakes, by day three I was tired of drinking down 4 things a day, and am happy to be back to just Shakeology. The fiber sweep was hard for me to drink, as I'm a texture person and it is super gritty. BUT I found a trick, if I shook it up, plugged my nose and chugged the whole thing without letting go, it was ok. By day 3 I had this drinking of the Fiber Sweep down, and could definitely do it again!

Overall I do feel better, like I have a clean slate to start this new year off on. I would definitely do it again after a holiday or vacation which included lots of indulging... Because I won't lie, I still love to eat and will never give up my sweets forever :-)

I would love to chat with you more about the 3 Day Refresh if you are interested! There are some great packages that include the refresh, a workout and Shakeology or 3 Day Refresh and Shakeology.

Off to finish making a healthy pulled chicken lunch with sweet potato fries! Happy Friday everyone!
