Personally, I have done the Beachbody Shakeology Cleanse three times over the course of a year. Always after completing a round of P90X or Insanity.
What makes this cleanse different from all the others is that you’re filling yourself with nutrients that your body needs.
It’s not a total starvation cleanse and you’re not keeping away nutrition from your body.
I recently, completed a 3 day Shakeology cleanse that lasted from May 29 to May 31. Here are some numbers:
- Day 1: 159 lbs, waist: 32.25 inches
- Day 3: 151 lbs, waist: 31.75 inches
On average, people lose 5 to 11 lbs by the time they finish the Shakeology Cleanse.
As you can see, I lost 8 pounds and feel great! Now I’m ready to hit my next workout hard.

When should I do the Shakeology 3 day cleanse?
People do cleanses for a number of reasons, but the most popular reasons are to lose weight, and/or to “cleanse” your body of toxins and the junk that collects in our bodies over time.
Here are examples of when people decided to do the 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse:
- After coming home from a vacation where they were eating lots of junk and drinking lots of alcohol.
- Before a wedding to lose a few pounds quickly.
- To relieve bloating and from feeling lethargic.
- After the holidays.
- And several people have completed the 3 day Shakeology Cleanse before starting a fitness program or to help break through a weight loss plateau.
Why and when a cleanse is done varies from person to person, but the one fact that remains is that if you’re going to do the Shakeology 3 day cleanse and you want to see results, you MUST stick with it and follow the regimen exactly as it’s laid out.
Is the weight you lose during the Beachbody Shakeology cleanse fat?
The straight and direct answer is no.
You will lose SOME fat because your calorie intake is lowered during the cleanse, but the majority of weight loss will come from water weight as the toxins flush out, plus whatever else has been stuck inside your colon for who knows how long.
Like many other cleanses, the Shakeology 3 day cleanse is designed to help cleanse your body of all the toxins that have built up over time. Some people will see and feel a huge difference and some not so much. It all depends on how healthy you are now.
Will I be going to the bathroom a lot during the Shakeology cleanse?
If this is your first time using Shakeology, you may feel a higher cleansing effect than others because Shakeology will bring back your digestive system to how it should be.
The nutrients found in Shakeology will make you regular and help you develop the healthiest digestive system ever… For some people, gas can be a common concern while drinking Shakeology.
With that said, drinking Shakeology can take a while to get used to. It’s often recommended for those new to Shakeology to only take 1/2 a scoop a day until they feel comfortable going to a full scoop (normally a week or two of taking it everyday).
Regular Shakeology users may notice little to no difference in this area because their digestive system has already been regulated.
However, during the Shakeology 3 day cleanse, you may feel yourself going to the bathroom more often than normal. This is ok and is expected because it helps eliminate toxins from your body.
Will I be hungry during the Beachbody Shakeology cleanse?
Shakeology is very filling, especially if you’re taking it three times a day.
The majority of the time, hunger happens because your body is asking for nutrients. Not because it’s hungry but because you’re lacking something your body needs. This is solved with Shakeology because of how nutrient dense it has.
Plus you will be consuming other foods and drinks according to how the cleanse is set up (plenty of water, fruit, salad, green tea and one lean protein at dinnertime).
Some Shakeology Cleanse reviews stated having a greater difficult time during the first day then the second and third.
Are there any problems that might happen during the Shakeology 3 Day cleanse?
There shouldn’t be any problems while doing the Beachbody 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse.
The Shakeology Cleanse was designed to be as safe as possible and to benefit you the most. It was researched and tested for max results.
The only problems that can occur are outside forces. By that I mean your friends or family trying to get you to stop your cleanse in order to go out to eat. It’s not going to be easy to say no to food but stick to the program and you will get the results 🙂
