I decided to kick off my Team Beachbody program with the 3-Day Refresh. It is a three day program where you drink four shake mixes a day and fill in with limited fruits and vegetables. I would say it would be easiest to do over a weekend as you need to eat or drink something on a scheduled basis. The shakes are tasty but will admit I will be happy to see the fiber shake go away after today.
My first concern was that I would be hungry. Overall, that has not been the case. I actually couldn't finish all the food the first day. I will admit that I was a bit hungry last night but could have had a cup of herbal tea to curb the feeling. I think the reason I was hungry yesterday is I got in 15,000 steps and an hour of Zumba.
I am now on day three and will be switching over to the 21-Day Fix portion of the program tomorrow. At that point I will get more of a selection of food and just one shake a day (if I so choose). While the program suggests eating all meals at home for the three days I have had two meals out (it is new years weekend). The thing you have to do is go in with a plan and stick to it. I knew I could have a very simple green salad (no cheese, bread, etc.) and vinegar with a 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil (there are other options). I packed a small container in my purse just in case but both restaurants had oil and vinegar.
So I'm guess you are wondering about the results. Yes, I have lost weight the last couple of days. I am well aware that some of it may be water weight but have to say I am feeling better already (probably from cutting out the bad food choices from my diet).
As I move forward I am trying to keep the following in mind:
