The 3-Day Refresh Challenge

Last month at Coach Summit in Las Vegas, Beachbody knocked the socks off of all of us coaches by announcing an amazing new product: 3-Day Refresh. With the gasps and cheers from the audience, I am certain that this one was kept under lock and key until the big announcement - I hadn't even heard a whisper of a rumor about it! They were available to coaches at Summit prior to their release to the public so I scooped one up, of course. And since I can't be cleansing while growing a human, I asked my favorite "test subject" to try it out for me. This person is blatantly honest so I knew I'd be getting a good review!

The top questions I am getting about the 3-Day Refresh are (1) how does it work and (2) what does it come with? Good questions, right! Here are the answers:

What exactly is the 3-Day Refresh? 
The 3-Day Refresh is a brand new program that is scientifically designed to help jump-start weight loss, kick sugar cravings to the curb, and start new healthy eating habits. The program comes with a full nutrition plan, all of the shakes and drink mixes you need, and a recipe guide. On the program you drink three shakes, one fiber drink, and eat vegan - no meat, no dairy. You actually get 2 "veggie options," 2 "fruit options," 2 "healthy fat options," 3 herbal teas, and a light dinner in addition to the shakes!


Shakeology
Shakeology is a once-a-day meal replacement shake that is used as a daily dose of dense nutrition for hundreds of thousands of people! It is packed with over 70 superfood ingredients and provides a balanced meal. It's purpose is to not only support weight loss, but to also improve your body's overall organ function, maximize energy, and maintain healthy blood sugar levels. Shakeology is eaten for breakfast on the 3-Day Refresh!
Vanilla Fresh
This brand new protein shake is unique to the 3-Day Refresh program. You have a Vanilla Fresh shake for lunch and dinner on this plan! This shake is designed to curb hunger AND provide proper nutrition to maintain a healthy, normal energy level! It has 20 grams of plant-based protein and 22 essential vitamins and minerals as well as probiotics to help with digestion. It also has a potato protein extract that has shown clinical effectiveness in satisfying your appetite!

Fiber Sweep
Fiber Sweep is a powder that you mix with water and drink once a day on the Refresh. It sounds scary but it really isn't bad! It is a mix of whole ground flax, chia, and psyllium seed husks. Combined, these ingredients help with cholesterol, blood sugar, and can even help lower the risk of heart disease!


When this program was first announced I was somewhat hesitant. I am not a big fan of those fancy, $50 a day juice cleanses that leave you starved and without any energy. I had faith that Beachbody wouldn't create a product that would leave people feeling that way but I also wanted to try it before I promoted it. As I said earlier, I had a test subject try it out for me since I am far too pregnant to be cleansing!

My "test subject" (thanks, honey!) started his Refresh last Sunday. Over the course of the next three days he lost a total of 8.2 POUNDS!!! He also said he:

  • never actually felt hungry; he was more anxious about not getting to eat what and when he wanted
  • focused more on his water intake than ever and that water helped to suppress hunger
  • loved having hot veggies and hot dinner
  • recommends using savory spices to make it 
  • slept very well
  • had a caffeine-withdrawal headache 
  • was fearful about the "digestion" that was going to go on but surprised to find he did not spend any more time than usual going to the bathroom
  • felt the low gas options were beneficial and worked
In the week that has followed, my tester said he feels more excited and willing to work out in the week that has followed. He also said that he has an overall healthier feeling which makes it easier to want to continue eating well! The day after doing the Refresh he had 5 pieces of Anthony's Pizza (a well-deserved and yummy reward!) for dinner along with a normal day of eating and he only had a 2 lb gain. Since then he has re-lost that two pounds and has maintained the 8 pound loss! 

Here are some other pictures of real Refresh results from others on my team:




In order to properly introduce this cleanse to our challengers with a BANG our team has decided to run a Refresh Your Life Challenge!!!

Here is how the group will work: we will be opening up a closed, private accountability group on Facebook. It will last 10 days. Participants will commit to the group and order their 3-Day Refresh Challenge Pack prior to starting. That will include both the refresh and a full MONTH of Shakeology! On Monday, July 21st, we will kick off the group and start out with the cleanse. We will follow the comprehensive guide and support each other throughout. Then, on Thursday morning we will transition to a post-cleanse way of life! Each day participants will continue to drink their Shakeology. In addition, for the next 7 days group leaders are going to be providing a workout for each day AND a long-term clean eating meal plan! This group is going to change some LIVES!


I would love to help YOU through the Refresh Your Life Challenge!
