Thank you for the tips my friend this plan is a fantastic idea ๐

I never tried a ‘green’smoothie before. I think adding some colorful berries into the mix will make it less intimidating. I’ve got to give it a try. Can you taste the spinach at all?
@Erica
You can mildly taste the ‘green’ of the spinach, but the sweetness of the berries and carrot juice really counters subdues its flavour. For those that I’ve made the spinach based smoothies for, their reaction is positive – a feeling of drinking something healthy, but delicious. I drink it so often, I don’t even notice the spinach anymore. I also make it with kale – and that is more noticeable. I think baby spinach leaves is a great way to get some more greens but not compromise on taste! ๐
I liek to think that I eat clean every day (: I do eat a lot a lot of veggies and mostly gluten-free and real, whole foods anyway, but don’t like to think of it as a diet or restrict the amoutn I eat! I think I would be very hungry on the 3 day plan ๐ but I like your tips on the ginger tea and meditation, sth I’ve been trying to do more often!
This doesn’t sound like no detox diet! Usually they are all “only liquids”. I much appreciate a girl who eats clean and detoxes her body in the right way! Joanne and I might be doing this pre-wedding!
@Shu Han
I agree with you Shu Han, clean eating everyday is definitely the way to go! The detox is about giving your digestive system a rest and filling your body with superfoods, plenty of water, and most of all rest. On this detox (which I don’t consider a diet, but a nutrition boost!), I had no meat, eggs, or sugars (maple syrup, honey…). The overall effect was a feeling of being more energized and lighter on my feet! ๐ I also limited food intake, to ease digestion and focused on taking it easy, doing light exercise, and meditation.
@Catherine Lemieux
Thanks Catherine! That would be a great pre-wedding plan ๐ After some of the stress we’ve faced this past month, a time out like this, focusing on rest and energy-filled foods, really made me feel amazing!
Loving this whole plan! thanks for posting it with great tips too ๐
after my vacations i’m gonna do this. i will need a serious detox ๐
These look perfect. I am excited to try some of these recipes. Thanks for providing some inspiration to detox.
@Guru Uru
You’re welcome lovely! It’s always nice to read your warm and friendly comments xo
@Jessica Duchin I’m happy you’re inspired! ๐
@ Emily – Thanks for the tips on the spinach. Good to know that the taste isn’t overwhelming. I like spinach, but I wasn’t sure how I’d like it in a smoothie. Now, I think I’ll give it a try. A bonus about your smoothie is that it isn’t that awful green color a lot of green smoothies can be. Less intimidating that way. ๐
And kale… I never thought of that one. I’ll see how I like the spinach smoothie and then may have to give the kale a try. I’ll keep you posted on my smoothie adventure ๐
I really, really, REALLY need to do this!
I saw this on Fit and Fabulous and really should try it… Thanks for sharing

I just shared this with a friend! I think this is the best detox I’ve seen yet. I can only imagine how great you feel after eating like this for 3 days.
Thanks for the great post and tips!
The smoothies look amazing, and the recipes delicious, my type of food! I think I could totally do this, all sounds so good!
The Berries + Spinach Superfood Smoothie sounds so delicious, I can’t wait to try it out.
I am just about to create an account on Pinterest. ( I am always behind the times!)
I will come straight back here to pin these amazing pictures.

Oh how I wish I had the grit to do this 3 day Detox Plan. To tell the truth, I think I could find the willpower to eat/drink it, but I need someone else to do the shopping and preparing.
I did share it on my facebook page though.
Stopping in from SITS!
I want to try this Detox Plan so bad! But I could only spend two days at home, and those are my Saturdays and Sundays. I know this wouldn’t be successful if I were to do it in the office. Well, I’ll still bookmark this blog and try to find three days at home. Thanks for sharing this!
What is perpetuo?
Can we drink coffee? I have all the food and am ready to go, there is just no mention if we can drink coffee or not.
@The Vermettes It’s really up to you and how you would like your detox to go. On this plan, I drank only lemon water and decaf green tea. I would personally recommend zero caffeine to give your body a break. Enjoy! ๐
@Lisa Payton It’s a variation of the BASIL plant. Fresh basil will do the trick if you can’t find pesto perpetuo. Thanks for stopping by! ๐
My girlfriend and I did your cleanse last week. We both last some weight. My girlfriend, who is very disciplined in her eating and working out said she hasnt seen the scale go down in over a year and she lost 3 pounds. What I loved about it was the way I felt, even 3 or 4 days after. I felt full of energy! I work with children so by 1 or 2 in the afternoon I am normally spent. Some days I even managed to get a work out in.
So thanks! We both learned a lot!
Hi i just finished your 3day smothie detox and I loved it!!!! they were delicious and I didn’t feel hungry at all!!! Now I will start 3day healthy eating detox plan. Thanks to you, smothies will be included in my everyday diet. Thanks for great tips and delicious recipes!!!
That’s WONDERFUL Paulina! So glad that you enjoyed it and are adding healthy smoothies to your everyday living – fantastic ๐
It sounds great but just wondering how many calories are there in each day? Thanks
Dear Mary, so glad you think so! I made this plan with the goal of detoxing the body by consuming clean, whole plant-based foods – no calorie restrictions. I personally lost 5 pounds, even though the goal was simply to intake lots of healthy foods that we’re easier to digest and easier on the system overall. Most people feel that after the 3 days, there is a great energy boost and the desire to keep consuming delicious smoothies everyday!! Enjoy!
