Post 4th of July 3 Day Refresh & Clean Eating Support/Accountability Group

This last week Monday - Wednesday I committed to the 3 Day Refresh and got amazing results! I was down 3.5 pounds, felt amazing, had more energy, and was totally back on track after a couple of weeks indulging on vacation and just being plain lazy.

I know that the 4th of July has hit and a lot of you spent the entire weekend eating tons of goodies. I'll admit it, I totally had some treats on the 4th but since I did the refresh at the beginning of the week I knew that I didn't want to hurt all of my bad work and it was really easy for me to get back on track. The week before that, NO WAY! I was totally off track and didn't know how to get back. I was having some pretty fierce cravings.

I know how easy it is to back slide and get off track of your clean and healthy eating - Because I've been there. It only takes a couple of times drinking with friends, going out for ice cream, going out to dinners, birthday parties, ect. and before you know it your pants don't fit right, your sluggish, have lack of energy, and are bloated.

Honestly, you can workout and workout and workout but it's not going to make it go away. Anyone can workout but nutrition is really where the results are.

So, this is exactly why I'm excited about the next challenge group I'm opening up just for those of you who are ready to spend 30 days with me and get back on track.

So here is the deal - My next challenge Group opens up July 14th! In this group we are committed to 30 days of clean eating and Shakeology but are kicking off  the challenge off with the 3-Day Refresh to get back on track!! 

What is the Refresh:

The 3- Day Refresh consists of 3 daily shakes, a fiber drink, plenty of filtered water, plus a wide variety of fresh fruits, veggies, and healthy fats though out the day to keep fueling your body and increasing your metabolism.

What you will eat and drink during the 3- Day Refresh:

1. Wake up- Drink 8-12 oz filtered water

2. Breakfast (within an hour of waking up)- Shakeology + fruit (from the list provided)

*Option for Green Tea

3. Mid-morning- FIBER SWEEP (digestive health drink)

4. Lunch- Vanilla FRESH (high protein, hunger-satisfying shake) + options from the fruit, veggie, and healthy fat list

5. Afternoon snack- From the fruit, veggie, or juice option list

*Option for Green Tea

6. Dinner- Vanilla FRESH + a meal from dinner recipe list

*Option for Green Tea

What is the Vanilla FRESH shake?

A high protein vanilla shake not only helps satisfy your hunger though out the day, but delivers essential nutrition your body needs for healthy weight loss.

This is also a perfect source of fiber, and it is DAIRY FREE and SOY FREE!

Nutrition Facts for Vanilla FRESH:

Plant protein - 20 gm

22 essential vitamins and minerals

Probiotics to promote digestive and immune health

Clinically tested potato protein extract to help curb hunger

No artificial flavors, color, preservatives, or sweeteners

What is the FIBER SWEEP DRINK?

A blend of soluble and insoluble fibers that gently and naturally eliminates waste from your digestive system, while supporting healthy intestinal flora.

- It is created from whole-ground flax, chia, and psyllium seed husks, FIBER SWEEP is an excellent source of fiber for digestive health

-Wholesome psyllium fiber can help naturally lower cholesterol and support healthy good sugar levels as a part of a healthy diet

-Since this plan is low in saturated fat and cholesterol, psyllium fiber husk may help reduce the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD).

- Flax and Chia are sources of healthy omega-3 fatty acids

3 Day Refresh Fiber Sweep

- Since it's Summer and a lot of you are going on vacation at some point this month I am going to spend a whole week in our challenge group going over vacation tips, traveling rules, and how to enjoy your summer vacations while having a healthy balance and not feeling deprived. So it doesn't matter if you are traveling during this challenge, you can still join us and not feel guilty!! 

Healthy living is all about BALANCE! I want to teach you this!!

3 Day Refresh Results 

We will start with the 3 Day Refresh then 30 days of replacing 1 meal a day with Shakeology, healthy eating and any exercise of your choice.  It does not have to be a Beachbody Fitness Program, although I encourage you to do some form of physical activity for 30 minutes a day 5 days a week!  :)  (21 Day Fix, P90X3, Chalean Extreme, Piyo, T25).

Each day you will log into the group for your tip of the day, daily motivation, inspiration and accountability. I will share recipes along with ways to handle late night munchies, sugar cravings, emotional eating, temptations and more.  You will be accountable each day to report with the group your food and your workouts!  

At the end of the 30 days we will measure our progress, submit our results and in 30 days you will have kicked bad habits, introduced new healthy habits and be on your way to creating life long health and wellness for you and your family!

Challenge Group Transformation Stories

Today is normally when I post a Monday Meal Plan and I still Plan on doing that but really wanted to share a few transformation stories that really stuck out to me over these last few months. If you keep up with my blog and Facebook page you know that I run monthly challenge groups through closed Facebook Groups. In the group we assign accountability partners, create menu plans together, and set goals.

The people in my challenge group, WHEN DEDICATED, and follow everything that is given to them get amazing results. I'm always so humbled, excited, and blessed to share the results of the ones that don't mind. I'm able to share with you a little piece of the results that come out of these challenge groups.

In this post I would like to share the results of these three challengers and give you a little inside peak of what we share in these challenge groups. It's more then just another accountability group. We dig deep into the reason that each person is joining and how they will feel once accomplishing their goals.

Ashley came to me 4 months ago looking to feel better, have more energy, and gain back her health. She's a busy momma and needing something to get her back on track. This challenge group works perfect because she can workout from home and replace one meal a day with Shakeology. This makes everything so much easier because it's one meal she doesn't even have to think about but gives her the nutrients her body needs. She never gave up and joined challenge after challenge. In 4 months she is showing amazing results. These type of transformations truly inspire me. Insanity, clean eating, and Shakeology. 

"I am pretty excited about my results so far and can't wait to continue getting better. I love being part of a group that has a common goal. Whenever I'm struggling throughout the day I just go to the group and see that everyone has the same struggles."

Megan continues to go strong in my challenge groups and her results are amazing!! She isn't giving up and doesn't plan on slowing down. She wrote an amazing blog post about her journey.

Check it out here

 "I reached out to Marlena. She helped save my life.  I'm still in a challenge group. Still going strong, and still not giving up. I'm doing ChaLEAN extreme, T25, and walking 3 miles(at least) 4-7 days a week. 

I was asked again to write my goals out and I set them so low, because a part of me thought I would quit. I started the challenge at about 220lbs.( the heaviest I had ever been) I now weigh about 205lbs. My one week goal was to not quit, and I didn't even slow down!"

Missy joined my challenge group with TurboFire and has been rocking it since day one. She always checks in with the group sharing her recipes, her run time, and how many calories she has burned. She has been crazy motivated since day one and even just completed the 3 day Shakeology cleanse loosing 3lbs in 3 days. Jump started her journey and is continuing with T-25. I love watching her journey and love how open she is with sharing it. She is going to do amazing things! 

I truly love having the opportunity to run these challenge groups because I get to witness and be apart of these type of transformations each and everyday. I don't do anything special but inspire others to reach their goals!! Together we are better and together it's SO much easier!!! 

If you are looking to join my challenge groups please don't be scared or in fear of coming to me!! I love what I do and open up my heart to all who are ready to make the change. I run challenges every month and as long as I continue results and transformations will be produced. Not because of me but because the people who join and are ready to use everything I give them and make it happen.
