I love Beachbody. I mean, I'm a coach and I will sing the praises of Beachbody programs and products forever and ever. Beachbody programs have made fitness a way of life for me in a way that I never imagined.
But...I'm not a big fan of cleanses. Or detoxes. Or whatever you want to call them. They just scream "quick fix" or "gimmick" to me. They aren't sustainable. I am a firm believer in eating right and moving your body is what gets results, not starving yourself or restricting. Heck, I like to CHEW food.
But I am still going to do the 3 Day Refresh. Starting January 7 (as long as it gets here by then!).
Why?
I am coming off a month of deeply stressful personal issues that have taught me two things:
1.) I stress eat.
2.) I stress eat A LOT.
And the result of that? Well, I couldn't tell you in numbers because I absolutely refuse to step foot on a scale right now, but I will say this: my jeans are tighter, my face is rounder, and I feel just....blah.
Blah is never good, friends. After all that work I was putting in with Focus: T25 and seeing results (!!!) I let it all go to crap. Bummer.
What is making me reconsider my stance on the 3 Day Refresh are the following points:
- I can still EAT during the Refresh
- I am going to need a little help re-establishing my old healthy eating habits after a solid month of eating everything and anything I wanted.
- I'm going in knowing full well that the 3 Day Refresh is NOT sustainable, nor is it meant to be--but it will get me started on the right foot again..
- I trust Beachbody and stand behind their products.
- People have been asking me about it, and I am unable to give a fair assessment of the quality/value of the program.
So, what exactly is the 3 Day Refresh?
Simply put, it's a scientifically designed program that helps you fast-track weight loss, kick-start healthy eating, and get a clean break from bad nutrition habits.
I know, it sounds like a lot of shiny buzzwords--but I am going to give it a whirl and come out on the other side of 72 hours hopefully feeling rejuvenated, motivated, and feeling less blah.
January is going to be a big transition month for me. I am blessed and grateful for fresh starts and second chances going into 2016, and this is just going to be a part of that.
I'll be checking in each day of the 3 Day Refresh here, on Facebook and Instagram if you'd like to follow along!
Happy New Year!
