Shakelogy 3 Day Cleanse

I've heard so many great things about Shakeology & I'm excited to try it for myself! I am such a sugar addict and don't love my veggies, so I'm going to do a 3 day cleanse to jump start my system and eliminate the carbs from my system. Here's a look at what it entails, I'll share the results as I go along. (Now if only the UPS man would come so I could get started!!!)

SHAKEOLOGY CLEANSE ESSENTIALS
  • 3 Shakeology shakes per day
  • 2 cups of green tea per day (I'm going to skip this, I don't like green tea)
  • 1 or 2 pieces of fruit per day (optional)
  • 1 salad for dinner-can include fish or poultry
  • No dairy or extra sugars (this includes almond and soy milk)!

    • Don't do it in the middle and advanced workout program like P90X or Insanity
