The Cleansing Plan
The plan consists of 3 Shakeology Shakes* a day (every 3-4 hours) with a salad in the evening. You must drink at least 8 glasses of water per day (the more the better). You also must get some form of cardio for at least 30 minutes per day. (more cardio the better) Remember to record your weight and measurements prior to starting!
What you will need:
3 SHAKEOLOGY Shakes per day (blended with water and ice – no milk, almond milk or soy milk)
2 cups of green tea per day (Triple Leaf Detox Tea is good choice but any decaf green tea will work)
3 pieces of fruit per day (Apple, pear, orange, banana, etc – if you are working out – if not try to go with 1 per day)
1 salad for dinner per day (lettuce, veggies, lean protein)
4 oz lean protein for your salad per day (WHITE poultry or fish)
Only Low Fat Dressings
Very important – you can not have any milk with this. No soy, rice, or almond milk. NO DAIRY. Also, avoid extra sugars.

Shakeology 3-Day Cleanse FAQ
Here are the answers to some of the most commonly asked questions:
1. How many calories per day?
800 to 1,100 calories per day
2. How often can I do the Shakeology 3-Day Cleanse?
Ideally, you should do it once per quarter (every 3 months)
As the seasons change, before starting a new workout program or when you feel you need help breaking through a plateau.
3. Should/Can I still do my workouts during the cleanse?
It depends on the individual. You’ll have less energy than normal, so consider doing it during a recovery week. Try not to do in the middle of P90X® or INSANITY®
4. Can I do a 1-day or a 2-day cleanse instead of a 3-day?
Yes! Some people will see results with one or two days. I would recommend against continuing the cleanse for more than three days.
5. Should/Can I take other Beachbody® supplements during the Cleanse?
You cannot use the Results and Recovery Formula™ as there is too much sugar/calories – Supplements like Omega-3 and multivitamins are not necessary, but won’t hurt either.
