Finally!! An easy plan put together just for you to help you drop a few pounds (going on vacation, wedding, or an important event), if you want to break some bad habits, or if you totally fell off the wagon and you want a fresh start to your healthy regimen! 

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

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:

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.

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

When should you start the 3-Day Refresh?
Many people start the Refresh on Friday morning so they can stay focused and disciplined through the weekend- while others may prefer to follow this during the week to avoid temptation of weekend activities. 
This is totally YOUR CALL of how and when you want to start this.  Bottom line- you want results and to make this a healthy lifestyle, it should be a good time when you decide they day YOU WANT TO COMMIT!

What to expect while on the Refresh:
This is NOT a starvation diet or an all-liquid diet, although it is low in calories (approx. 900 a day). You should not feel starved since it is packed with fiber and protein and you are nourishing your body properly. 

About the FIBER:
If you are not use to having lots of fiber in your regimen, I recommend you eat a large salad daily and a few servings of fresh veggies for the week up until your Refresh.  If you are not use to all the fiber and overload your body with fiber, you may feel uncomfortable gassy and bloating.  This is also a sign of your body cleaning itself up, which is what it is meant to do.  After you do this Refresh, you will want to increase your fiber levels in general (which is part of a healthy nutrition regimen).  
Fiber promotes satiety, helps balance blood sugar, and thus energy levels, promotes cardiovascular health, and keeps your digestive tract more regular.  It of course also helps you stay healthy and helps you lose weight! 

Water:
It is recommended that you drink tons of water, especially if you want the fiber to do its job right! How you know you get the right amount of water is by taking your weight / 2 and that number is how many ounces of water you should intake every day.
Example: My weight is 130.... 130/2= 65.... 65 ounces is what I need every day (not including your water for your shakes).
*Some people will drink 1 gallon to help maximize their result, which is an approach I personally used and love! It also helps you feel fuller and know the difference between hunger vs. boredom. 

Exercise:
During the 3-Day Refresh, it is recommended that you incorporate MILD to MODERATE exercise. This is because the 3 -Day Refresh will use your energy more effectively to help cleanse your system if you are not, at the same time, taxing it with the effort of repairing muscle after an intense workout.

So now you have it! A simple plan, for fast results! I am so excited this plan is out because this is perfect for so many people out there looking for results the natural way without putting chemicals and toxins in their body!

21 DAY FIX- Learn Portion Control and Self Control

One of the biggest issues with people not being able to reach their health and fitness goals is lack of control... both portion control and self control.. We go out to eat at restaurants and most places have fried, greasy, and food loaded with butter, plus are loaded on your plate and enough for a family to eat. But, since its sitting in front of us, why waste it right? Lets finish it all! NO, this is the problem... we need to find the strong in us and focus on what and how much we are eating so we know when to stop.  We are full before we even realize, so when we continue eating, those calories add up fast.

We also have a huge issues with emotional eating. We eat when we are sad, happy, mad, scared, etc. but that affects us in so many ways both mentally and physically. Snacking is sometimes taken to a new level and by learning how to eat properly and how to "snack right", our bodies can make some amazing changes!
What will you do to reach your goals?

A little commitment and effort can get you a long way!  What I do is 1:1 online coaching every single day to help you stay accountable and motivated to help you reach your overall health and fitness goals!

Autumn Calabrese is your personal trainer:
Autumn Calabrese is a celebrity fitness trainer, busy mom, and national-level bikini
competitor. She came up with the idea of a portion-control container system
after watching a client eat an entire 1,300-calorie salad in one sitting because it
was “healthy.” Autumn realized that supersized portions were hurting her clients’
weight-loss success because they were eating too much without knowing it. So she
developed portion-control containers to help people see how simple it is to eat the
right amounts and lose weight easily. And as a single mother, Autumn understands
how hard it can be to fit exercise and healthy eating into a jam-packed schedule.
So she created short but effective workouts that take only 30 minutes a day, along
with a simple eating plan that doesn’t require you to spend hours in the kitchen.

This is one meal you NO longer have to prep or worry about! If you skip a meal, I suggest incorporating Shakeology once a day in place of the meal usually skipped.. I personally use it for either breakfast, lunch, or even my 2nd meal in between breakfast and lunch.  It works great for me and keeps me full longer :)

I cannot forget the BRAND SPANKIN NEW FLAVOR that came out!! We officially have STRAWBERRY available, and also comes in a box of packets with not 2, but 3 flavors!!!

I know there are many shakes out there and people are jumping from diet shake to diet shake.. As you see above, this is NOT a diet shake or weight loss shake.. this is specifically a health shake and with all the benefits it gives you will then aid in weight loss.  I do not focus on how many grams of fat, sugar, or carbs are in it, but what is in the shake and how it will help your health and wellness and help you achieve your goals with a LONG TERM effect!

Want to join my CHALLENGE GROUP??
Join my closed group on face book where I coach you and give you health and fitness tips, recipes, meal plans, and provide you with the support you need to follow through with your fitness goals!

I post every morning and throughout the day to help you stay on track, but you as a challenger would be required to check in at least 1 time daily to report how your day went... So if you did your daily workout, drank your shake, and rate your food from 1-5, 5 being the best and 1 being the worst.. You also can share what you ate so I can give you feedback and advice or maybe other healthy choices if you need assistance with clean eating.

In the Challenge Group, we also do before and after pictures and measurements to help you keep track of your progress.  Although you may think the scale is important, your inches lost and physical appearance are more important, along with your change in health, energy levels, cravings, etc.  I help you with thinking in a different way, along with building the self confidence you may have never had at one point in time.


If you are skeptical on if this will work for you , I want you to take a moment and think about what has, what has not, and what is or is not working for you.  If what you are doing is not working for you now, what will hurt to try something new for 21 days?? The worst that can happen is your in the same spot you were at this very moment, but I can assure you, if you follow the tips and tools I give you, you will make some amazing changes!

I focus on living a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle and gear away from the diet scene.. If you are interested in joining my 21 DAY FIX challenge starting Feb 17th, please fill out this application below to get a spot in my group and I will get back to you ASAP :)
