My Most Common Questions on Products

I wanted to do a quick blog about the most common questions I get :-)  This will be a short and sweet blog, and be sure to check out my Facebook page From Skinnyfat to Fit for my July special!!

Is the 3-Day Refresh good for those that are already skinny?  My answer is YES!!  The 3-Day Refresh is NOT about losing weight only, your body will let go of what it needs to let go naturally, and most of it will be waste.  What the 3-Day Refresh does, is get rid of toxins in our bodies and also helps with cravings, and to cut the bad habits we may have picked up on vacation.  The 3-Day Refresh is also a good starting point for people that are ready to jump start their new workout regiment, or those that find themselves hitting a plateau.  I had some bloating from too much Vegas, and I've been bloat free since doing the cleanse.  I lost 4 pounds, but have since gained one back.

I just started drinking Shakeology, why am I bloated?  Shakeology is made of a ton of fruits and veggies, and sometimes our bodies are not use to having all that goodness in us.  Fruits and veggies can cause bloating, but after a week or so, it usually goes away.  If it doesn't try switching to the Vegan based Shakeology, as your system may be sensitive to the Whey based protein.  85% of the time, it's just our bodies getting use to the idea of being healthier, and the pro and pre-biotics are basically doing their jobs......yes, like I said, some bloating may occur in the first week or so.

Is Focus T25 okay for skinny people?  Yes, Focus T25 is perfect for skinny people, all the programs are :-)  IF you're scared to lose weight, up your caloric intake.....UP IT!!!  Don't be afraid!  You'll gain lean, mean muscle and become healthier.  Keep in mind, just because people are skinny, doesn't mean they are healthy ;-)  And if your skinny fat like I was, all of these programs will tone you up :-)  Especially the mid section!

I'm a fussy eater, is 21 Day Fix right for me?  Well, this question is hard to answer, because it really depends on how fussy you are.  If there are some meats, fruits and veggies that you like, then yes, it can be made to suit your needs.  If you don't like anything but fried food....then there might be a problem!!  If anyone has any questions regarding this, feel free to PM me on my Facebook page From Skinnyfat to Fit or email me!!  I would be happy to go over the 21 Day Fix and figure out if it would work for you!

Is P90X3 for skinny people?  See the answer that I gave for T25 :-)  But if you don't fee like re-reading it, yes.....P90X3 is okay for skinny people to do!!  Just make sure you up your caloric intake, and make sure it's with healthy foods and not empty calories!

Can Shakeology still be used if you don't need to lose weight?  Of course it can!!  Not everyone needs to lose weight, BUT everyone needs to be healthy, right?  I rarely use Shakeology as a meal supplement, I use it mostly after a workout or a snack.  It's my "fast food" for the days I need something to shake and go.  You can also pack it with calories if you choose to by adding yogurt or peanut butter or some health fats.

I'm already at my goal weight, should I continue the 21 Day Fix?  Absolutely!!  If you like the plan, stick with it, but make sure you calculate your maintenance intake.  21 Day Fix is not only something that can be used to lose weight, BUT it can be used to GAIN weight or even maintain it.  What I love about the 21 Day Fix, is it teaches us how to EAT HEALTHY, how to make our meals proportioned and balanced.  It teaches us to not cheat ourselves of healthy fats, carbs and things we may decided to skip out on because we deemed them as not good to have.  If you feel you want to move on from the workouts and do something else, you can still follow the system.

SOOOO there you have it, some of the most asked about questions this month so far.  

And a small thought for the day......I find it funny how most people don't give it a SECOND thought about buying hydroxy cut or that stuff you shake on your meals, HCG or all the 1000000 other unhealthy and unnatural, quick fix band aid products that are on the market, but they fuss and think that Shakeology and workout programs are scams????  HAHAHHAA  Gotta love our backwards thinking!!  There is NOTHING like 100% on target nutrition and working out to feel healthy and BE HEALTHY FOR REAL........
