7 day clean eating challenge invitation and challenge group posts
Quick tips on running this group: I post the meal plan on Friday night or Saturday morning for everyone to get their grocery shopping done. I post day 1’s meal plan on Sunday morning and then day 2’s meal plan on Monday morning. The reason why I break it up is so that everyone stays ENGAGED in the group. The only requirement to join is that they check in daily because you are providing a free meal plan with a shopping list. So just make sure to post each meal plan the day before so that they can be prepped and ready to go

Please comment below "i'm in" if you want to join us....again this is absolutely FREE but you are required to check in daily with the group to stay involved-and of course you have to eat clean lol. Excited! <3

**CHECK IN** (SATURDAY POST)
Hey everyone!!! Time to get all geared up and ready to go!!!
Please CHECK IN AND COMMENT BELOW so I KNOW you have seen the shopping list and the first day of the meal plan!! I will be posting day 2's meal plan on Monday morning so that you have it for Tuesday! You MUST check in daily with the group to STAY in the group. Please check in below!!
ALSO, PLEASE TAKE BEFORE PICTURES AND MEASUREMENTS!! YOU WILL WANT THEM I PROMISE! The last group lost an average of 4-7 lbs and 1-2 inches off their waist and love handles. More importantly everyone FELT better and had more energy. You might experience a few headaches the first couple of days since you will be weaning off processed foods and caffeine, soda, excess sugar and all that good stuff so drink a TON of water...divide your body weight in 2 and that should be how many ounces you should aim to drink every day!
Please post any questions you have below as well!! Excited to get started!!
****POST THE DAY 1 MEAL PLAN AND SHOPPING LIST***
POST #3 ( SUNDAY POST)
***CHECK IN***
Remember to TAKE YOUR BEFORE PICTURES AND MEASUREMENTS TODAY!!! I want you to be able to see what clean eating can do for how you feel and your body as well. Take front/side/back pics and measure chest/waist/love handle area/hips/thighs.
Also....write down how you FEEL in general..have you been sluggish or tired or just not feeling all that well? These are good things to write down so that you can compare how you FEEL after these 7 days are up cause a lot of your results will come mentally and internally and emotionally and not just physically. There are things called "non scale victories" so pay attention to those as well!
Also, I’ve had a couple people interested but if anyone else wants to purchase a 7 day jump start kit for $35 let me know...It will come with 7 days worth of shakeology which is my addiction and my secret weapon when it comes to nutrition. I'm sending out some soon to people who messaged me and were interested so I figured I would open it up to you guys as well. I have about 3-5 more kits available so feel free to message me.
***PLEASE LET US KNOW….WHO HAS DONE ALL OF THEIR SHOPPING AND IS READY TO GO?!?! POST BELOW!

DAY 2 CHECK IN
How are you feeling so far? Satisfied? Tired? Energetic? Make mental notes of how you're feeling more than anything else...eating clean foods will help SO much with your over all energy and health, and energy will probably be one of the first things you notice...losing a little weight/inches is just a pretty awesome BONUS. DON'T be discouraged these first few days though if you are detoxing from caffeine, or a strictly American diet full of bread/fast food etc. That is completely normal and should be gone by day 2-3

DAY 4-DESSERT POST
Quick tip- Not Eating ENOUGH!
I want to take a minute to talk about not eating enough! I know a TON of women who suffer with this whether it is in fear of gaining weight, or just not making time to eat, it is more dangerous than most people think.
When you have a calorie deficit that is too low, it causes a lot of bad metabolic changes. Some include:
1. Slowing your thyroid production (responsible for fat, carb and protein metabolism)
2. Decreases muscle mass (muscle BURNS fat)
3. Lowers testosterone (important for women also, for putting on muscle- this will NOT make you "bulky"
4. Decreases leptin (regulates energy)
5. Body stores fat in starvation mode in fear of not getting another meal
So remember it is not about decreasing what you eat but rather increasing the GOOD foods to get your metabolism fired up!
Ok guys.....don't fall over lol and don't go grab any junky sweets....this is a CLEAN TREAT which it's one of my favorites! It's made with CAROB not cocoa but you can use cocoa powder as well!
It's so easy to make...I personally love having treats more often but I like to make them healthy so that I CAN have them more often and fit them into my meal plan without feeling guilty....clean eating is AWESOME and not hard at all if you just find out what works for you

Happy Weekend, friends!
Weekends are times meant for family and friends, and enjoying yourself. AND they are also the toughest for staying on track with your healthy lifestyle. But it's SO important to stay strong these next couple days, and realize that you have all worked SO HARD all week, so this is no time to throw in the towel and let all that hard work go to waste! Remember WHY you started, and WHY you want this so badly, and then those little temptations won't matter one bit. Be strong, stay on course, and BE PROUD on Monday when you know you accomplished something amazing! I'm proud of you all!

BUUTTT it's not the last day you are going to eat clean because you learned SOOOO MUCH during this week so you know exactly what to be eating moving forward and you are going to go out there and inspire your family and friends to do the same i just know it right?!
Anyways, the NEXT PHASE of this program is a 21 day challenge which is a step up from just this first group. This is where you will push yourself to become the BEST VERSION of yourself by incorporating a specific fitness regimen as well as following another meal plan. It starts on (insert date). So you will follow an exact workout plan and an exact meal plan so it’s going to take the guess work out…plus it’s only 30 minute workouts so EVERYONE has time for that! Please comment below “I’m in” and I will send over more details!!
Again I am so proud of everyone...this has been one of my favorite groups!! Let’s finish up the last day STRONG!!
