Shakeology Cleanse Day One Review:


Spending a week in the Leelanau Peninsula with my family means a week of yummy food, delicious beer, and fun in the sun. In order to reset my clean eating habits, I decided to try the Shakeology 3 Day Cleanse. I started my cleanse this morning. Upon waking I had a cup of Candy Cane Lane Peppermint Green Tea (I didn't have plain green tea) then followed that up with a serving of chocolate Shakeology. For my mid-morning snack I had a medium Granny Smith apple. I had another Shakeo for lunch, then had a baby spinach salad with 1 tbsp. of each: carrot, celery, red bell pepper, light raspberry vinaigrette, 4 ounces of 99% lean turkey meat and a cup of Green Tea (I got some at Meijer) for dinner. I ended my day with another Shakeo for my evening snack. I'm not going to lie, I'm pretty hungry. I think this is partially because I just got done eating wayyyyy too much food for a week, obviously part of it is because of the low caloric intake today. I did complete Burn Intervals today from ChaLEAN Extreme this morning. My energy level felt fine and I was able to push hard throughout the whole workout. Throughout the day, my energy level has slightly gone down, but nothing major. I haven't felt shaky and I don't have a headache. One key thing to remember to do when doing the Shakeology Cleanse is to drink a lot of water. I have had a ton of water today and feel very hydrated, something I didn't feel all week up north. My total caloric intake today was 696 calories and I burned 554 doing Burn Intervals and Ab Burner. Since the cleanse has such a low caloric intake, it isn't recommended to do it for more than three days. My goals of the cleanse are to reset my clean eating habits, reduce cravings for junk food, detox my system, and get rid of the vacation bloat. More to come tomorrow....
