3 Day Refresh Update!!!

Hey Everyone!!  I am so excited to share my results with you!  I've been wanting to try this cleanse ever since it was launched last year.  The timing was never right for me.  But think about it, is there really a "right" and "perfect" time for a new routine. Probably not!  I had to turn down a lunch out and multiple delicious dinners, but I wanted to see this all the way through!!  I wasn't THAT bad and I wanted to finish these three days with a success while sticking with the program 100% the entire time.
I have NEVER EVER stuck to an eating program 100%!!  Yep, I said it...Yikes!!  There has always been a little bit of the kids food or a little (sometimes big) cheat here and there.  This time I was determined and I'm excited to say, there were no bites of food and no sips of drinks that were not allowed.

I choose to start on Monday to avoid temptations at home.
I prepped all my Monday food on Sunday night, so I was ready to go on Monday.
I brought my 3 Day Refresh booklet to work and referred to it throughout the day to make sure I was staying on track.
I was nervous of just how "effective" the fiber sweep was going to be. It's not bad at all!!
Lunch was my favorite!  Probably because it was the biggest meal!  And I could finish it with my fruit so it felt like I was having dessert.
I opted-in for the 1 cup organic vegetable broth for dinner.  It made dinner feel more like a full meal and I normally drank my shake last since it was sweet.
I rounded out my evenings with another cup of herbal tea that relaxed me just enough for bed.
I will definitely do the Refresh again!!


Day 1
Breakfast: Shakeology with 1/2 banana blended together
AM tea: Peach Tea
Late AM: Fiber Sweep
Lunch: Vanilla Fresh Shake with Carrots, hummus and 1 cup cantaloupe
PM Snack: Celery and almond butter
Late PM Tea: Peach Tea
Dinner: Vanilla Fresh Shake with cinnamon, Coconut Steamed Veggies and 1 cup of organic vegetable broth with italian herb seasoning (salt-free)
Before Bed: Peach Tea



Day 2
Breakfast: Shakeology with 12 Strawberries blended together
AM tea: Peach Tea
Late AM: Fiber Sweep
Lunch: Vanilla Fresh Shake with Carrots, hummus and Strawberries (it must of been the fruit of the day!)
PM Snack: Celery and almond butter
Late PM Tea: Peach Tea
Dinner: Vanilla Fresh Shake with cinnamon, Roasted asparagus and 1 cup of organic vegetable broth with italian herb seasoning (salt-free)
Before Bed: Peach Tea
I sacrificed this AMAZING club sandwich on day 2! 



Day 3:
Breakfast: Shakeology with pure vanilla extract and cinnamon and a half an apple on the side
AM tea: I forgot it at home when we went to the Zoo (so sad!)
Leaving the Zoo: Fiber Sweep (packed my water and packet to shake up in the car on the way home)
Lunch: Vanilla Fresh Shake (with a little lime juice) with tomatoes, hummus and a half a banana
PM Snack: Celery with almond butter (the almond butter was rich with a touch of sweetness that I love!)
PM Tea: Peach Tea
Dinner: Roasted Asparagus with almonds and 1 cup of organic vegetable broth
Before Bed: Peach tea



I drank a ton of water; at least one 16 oz glass between each meal/drink.  And I had to pee all the time.

Last week, day after day, I woke up feeling nauseous and with a headache.  Today, I woke up feeling GREAT!!  No nausea and no headache!!  I've been five days without caffeine and will begin buying caffeine free coffee from now on.  I drink it because of the flavor instead of the caffeine anyway.

My FINAL RESULTS are:::

POUNDS LOST:: 4.8 lbs!!!
INCHES LOST::  4 inches!!!  (one off my waist alone!!)



Thanks for listening in to my story and letting me share it with you!! :)

She Ate What??

Paleo, clean eating, raw vegan, grass-fed, no hormones, etc. : We all see the up and coming new philosophies of eating healthy and along with that, you'll see some pretty crazy combinations too.  Today was perusing Pinterest (the death trap of the mind and time), I saw "Chia Pudding?!" What??  I haven't had pudding in FOREVER and now it's a "healthy" thing?! I remembered my boss had mentioned something to me about it a few weeks ago, so I figured I'd check out the recipe and see just how crazy it was.  Well call ME CRAZY because I had all of the ingredients on hand. I mixed it up and a couple hours later, I tried it. It was REALLY GOOD! It will definitely be added to my clean treats!! Here's the recipe:: Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Pudding 3/4 cup Almond/Coconut milk (you can use your milk of choice here) 3-4 tbsp of chia seeds (I recommend 3 until you decide that you want it thicker) 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 tbsp PB2 (if using natural nut butter

Creating Momentum: Day 1 of the 3 Day Quick Fix

So here goes nothing. Yesterday I prepped everything that I'll be eating for the next three days!  It was exciting. And nerve-wrecking all at the same time. I didn't like that I indulged yesterday more than normal just because I knew I would have those things for THREE DAYS!  Really Nicole, come on!!  I know I still have a LOT of mental work to do to help me get to where I want to be. That's why I'm trying out the three day quick fix to see how my body reacts to it and how I mentally handle being on a restrictive diet. During a competition prep, there can be cheat meals and other foods added in to your regime;  however for the 3 Day Quick Fix, protein and veggies rule.  I will be making one modification to the plan because I can't go three days without Shakeology. It's my nutritional supplement and "pick-me-up everyday!" Because it is considered a "red," during meal two I will be drinking my shake in place of the other protein listed along wi

Monday MOMENTUM:: Where should you start??

One of the biggest questions that people have when wanting to get healthy, loose weight or change their lifestyle is normally:: where do I start?? Some like to go cold turkey with a lifestyle change. And sometimes people can keep this up while others will fall back into the same old habits with little chance of recovering.  One thing that I have tried to stick with this year that has been different than my weightloss journey in the past is making small changes. Small changes will add up and before you know it, your lifestyle will be rapidly changing.  This year, it was when I really felt GOOD inside, that I wanted to consistently change my lifestyle. In the beginning, it really is like a detox!!  Think about how much processed food(like) junk you are consuming!!!  You wouldn't put maple syrup in a car and expect it to work like gasoline?!!!  It's  the same thing with our bodies. They weren't/aren't made to be given tons of chemicals that look like food.  Here are some o
