3 Day Shakeology Cleanse Review

I will preface by saying that I love Shakeology and have been using it as my everyday breakfast for about 6 months.  It truly is the best tasting shake I have ever tried (Chocolate flavor anyways).  Most shakes taste "chalky" and have an aftertaste, Shakeology doesn't.  It is a great way for me to get all my nutrients in one easy to make shake.

Now on to the Cleanse review.

I recently completed the 3 day Shakeology Cleanse.  In just 3 days I lost 9 lbs.  It was probably the easiest cleanse I have ever done, and I have done a few.  I once did one that required you to take a bunch of pills with every meal and drink nasty tasting teas all the time.  Not to mention you were in the bathroom every 10 minutes.  I did another one that was 21 days long and all you could eat was fruits and vegetables.  It was really tough because I absolutely despise vegetables.

The Shakeology cleanse is by far the easiest one I have done to date.  You simply have 3 shakes, 2 cups of Green tea, a salad for Dinner with Chicken or White Fish and a Low fat salad dressing.  You are also allowed one or two pieces of fruit for snacks during the day.  You do this for 3 days and you will see results.

Day 1:

My first day was pretty straightforward.  I had a Chocolate Shake for Breakfast, mixed with water and ice and a cup of Green Tea.  The same for Lunch.  A banana for a snack in the afternon.  Dinner was a Spinach salad (i'm not a fan of lettuce so I substitute spinach in my salads)  with Tilapia and a low fat French dressing.  I then had a third shake a couple hours before bed.

Day 2:

Day 2 my meal plan was a carbon copy of Day 1 (if it ain't broke don't Fix it right?).  Day 2 I struggled a little bit.  I was hungry, not starving.  But, the worst part was that I had a very dull headache from mid morning into the evening.  I assume it was from my lack of caffeine, and the toxins leaving the body.  That's the point of a cleanse after all.

Day 3:

Day 3 I felt great.  I followed the same meal plan only switching up my shake at lunch with the Greenberry flavor.  And, I ended up feeling so full after my dinner salad that I actually skipped my 3rd shake on day 3.

Results:

9 pounds lost

Finally under 250 lbs. again

Increased energy

I feel full with smaller portions

Mud Run for Fun

If you have been thinking of doing a Mud Run, put on your Nike's and Just Do It.  I completed my first Mud Run last year (2011) in June.  It was a Warrior Dash Event.  I have to tell you that I have never had more fun running in my entire life.  I loved it so much that I signed up for the next Warrior Dash in my area that was 2 months later in August.

The courses are challenging but, even if you are not in great shape you will be able to finish.  There are many longer Mud Runs such as the Tough Mudder and Spartan Race that are very intense and offer longer courses (usually around 10-13 miles)  There are also many other runs that are right around 3 miles and very manageable.  The Warrior Dash is a great one.

If you are looking for a Mud Run, Check out the Indian Mud Run in Coshocton Ohio.  It is a new event for 2012.  It was organized as a grass roots effort to raise money for the local parks, and as a result all of the money raised will go directly to the Parks.  It will be a great time.  I plan on strapping on my GoPro video camera and recording my run.  I plan on posting it here for you to enjoy.
