I completed a 10 day smoothie plan!! Here's what happened....

The idea of a smoothie plan was really daunting in the beginning. Agreeing to ten days of little to no solid foods was scary but I was at a point of my school semester where I was burning out, going through some emotional lows, and personal changes in my life and part of me almost welcomed the goal. Ten days, no meal prep needed, making every smoothie with my NutriBullet (Which I absolutely love and HIGHLY recommend every single adult/college student gets).  It's great for smoothies on the go and comes with travel cups that really came in handy when I had to prep my smoothies early for the day.
  • So why did I do it? 
    • Digestively, I wasn't feeling my best and I really wanted a reset 
    • I was absolutely okay with not meal prepping for two weeks 
    • I had gotten into some habits relying on processed foods that I wanted to kick 
    • Just because...I wanted too

  • What plan did I follow?
    • Jason Vales SUPER Blend Me program (you can get the app for about $1...its that easy) 
    • Consists of:
      • 3 smoothies a day 
      • 2 hunger SOS as needed (pieces or fruit/ protein bar) 
        • I opted to stick to the fruit option....protein bars would have been too tempting for me


  • What was it like during my cleanse? 
    • NOT bad honestly...
    • I didn't feel that hungry 
    • Socially things were tricky-> really I didn't mind being around food but when you are with ppl you care about food is just usually a part of that
    • I was in digestive BLISS - the best I've ever felt
    • Emotionally I felt pretty happy and inspired
    • Physically - my long distance run of the week suffered (I made it 6 of 10 miles successfully but felt extremely dizzy)
      • This is something I expected might happen.....Jason talks about it in his videos. So it was absolutely okay. 

  • What happened after?
    • I successfully changed my eating habits! I no longer have the issues I did with processed snack foods 
    • I feel better digestively overall
