Shakeology 3 day Cleanse Information

The Shakeology cleanse is not like the Master Cleanse and it is not like fasting. It’s a nutrient dense way of eating for three days (max) that allows your body to run through a “wash cycle” of sorts. The clean, simple, easy to digest food allows the body to process any waste and the fiber in the salad and shakes act like a towel in your system for a squeaky clean start to your diet or to break a plateau. This is a performance cleanse, so it’s meant to still allow the individual the energy and nutrition to still workout and function.



You get around 800-1200 calories a day (depending on fruit intake) if you follow the plan, so you won’t be a zombie for three days. At the same time, there are not enough carbs to fuel an intense workout so only do this cleanse on recovery weeks/days. The cleanse can also be modified to 1 or 2 days to fit your liking or schedule.

The basics are as follows:
3 Shakeology Shakes a day
You’ll need 9 servings so you can split an order of Shakelogy (24-30 servings) between 3 people for only $40 each instead of the full price.
2 Cups of Green Tea a Day (Triple Leaf Detox Tea is a good one, but my local store didn’t have it so I just got a decaf green tea)
1+ piece of fruit a day (optional, to fit your calorie needs)
1 big leafy salad for dinner (with only white grilled protein in salad)
NO DAIRY (or almond, soy, or rice milk) and NO EXTRA SUGARS
Only Low Fat Dressings.
You can put your 2 snacks before/after any of the MAJOR MEALS – Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

So each day of the cleanse would look something like this:

WAKE-UP:
1 cup of green tea (Triple Leaf Detox Tea is a good one)

BREAKFAST:
1 scoop Shakeology with water and ice (140 calories)
½ cup of fruit (60-90 calories) OPTIONAL

SNACK:
1 piece of fruit (85 calories)
- Apple, pear, orange, banana mango, etc

LUNCH:
1 scoop Shakeology with water and ice (140 calories)

MID-DAY:
1 cup of green tea

SNACK:
(either snack here or after dinner one or the other)
1 scoop Shakeology with water and ice (140 calories)

DINNER:
Salad with grilled white fish or poultry (340 calories)

You want a piece of pie?

So, I was thinking.  Yeah, I know what am I doing thinking?  I may strain something!  I did it and here's what I came up with.

You all know how passionate I am about being a Beachbody coach right?  I 110% love love love everyone I have met.  I love love love the opportunity to reach out and help others.  I love love love how I have grown as a person with this business.  The accountability that comes with being a coach has helped me maintain my fitness goals.  And of course I can't deny, it's freaking awesome that I get paid for this when it doesn't really feel like work.  Did I say I love it?

So, here's what got me scratching my head.  Why wouldn't any of YOU want to be a part of this?  At the end of last year Beachbody waived all sign up fees!  It was AMAZING to watch people sign up and start their business going.  One of my girls who did it has made success club!  I know that means nothing to most of you but she got in the biz free, has LOW monthly business fees (14.95/month) and has done AMAZING with her business.  Makes a mentor proud!

I want you to think about it.  You can watch a couple of videos I have posted, email me with questions talk to your family and friends.  Whatever your process is, just think about it.  Then, if you decide to take the plunge into this opportunity, I will reimburse your start up fee (39.95).  I will be clear and say I get no "bonus" or anything if you sign, I am just that serious about wanting you on my team.  All you have to do in return is sign up for Shakeology on Home Direct (HD).  It's a steal when you're a coach at 25% off and with HD you get FREE shipping every month!!  And then commit to starting a fitness program and FINISHING it!  Get some friends in on it for added accountability and fun!  Hey, if you get Insanity by April 11th you can join me and another coach in that for even MORE fun! 

I will offer the reimbursement through April 1st.  So, watch a few of these videos when you have time.  Contact me with any questions.  Sign up as a coach with me.  Get yourself on Shakeology HD.  Get yourself set in a workout program.  And I'll give you your 39.95 back, AND I am your biz mentor so we will work together to reach any financial/personal goals you have.
