Back from Europe

Well, the hubs and I just spent a glorious 14 days in Europe. First we enjoyed the Swiss Alps, then we went on to Florence, Rome, Pompeii and Positano. While the trip was AMAZING, I have to admit, I'm a little carbbed out (is that even a word??). We had pizza and pasta every day, along with gelato and usually some type of pastry. It was delicious of course, but we are ready to debloat and get some fruits and veggies in our systems. Instead of eating completely like rabbits over the next few days, we decided to do a 3-day Shakeology cleanse :)

What does this consist of? Well, we drink 3 shakes a day, and have a salad. This is not something long term by any means- not enough calories! But for a short period of time, adding in 3 shakes is like supplementing an additional 15 plates of salad EACH DAY! Talk about some nutrients. Yesterday went well and surprisingly, I wasn't even hungry. My 3 shakes filled me up and the salad (I threw on blueberries and some chicken) was delicious. I felt a little headachy, and realized I probably didn't drink enough water for all the fiber I was consuming, so I won't make that mistake today.

Many people question why Shakeology. I hear that it's too expensive, or it doesn't work. I for one can vouch for it. Before I was ever a coach, I drank the shakes daily. Was I paid to do so? No. I drank it because it keeps me healthy (haven't been sick once this year!), and keeps my digestive system on track. So, I will keep everyone updated on the 3 day cleanse and how it goes :)
