People have been asking me about Beachbody’s 2-Day Quick product lately and until recently I hadn’t tried it. Now that I am finishing my 2 day fast, I can give an honest review of this product.

I’m usually pretty skeptical when it comes to any type of fast weight loss product, but after seeing the success of Beachbody’s workout programs, I decided to give it a try. More for ridding my body of toxins than for the weight loss factor. The 2 day fast arrived at my door along with instructions on how to best use it.

It comes in 2 small packages and advises you to start your fast on the weekend when you are not expending a lot of energy at work. You have 2 flavors to choose from: vanilla and chocolate. I chose the chocolate and it had a decent flavor. You will take 1 tablespoon and add 8 ounces of water which you will need to stir vigorously or you could use a blender to get rid of any lumps.

You will do this shake 3 times a day replacing your meals and you will also drink an 8 oz glass of water a couple of hours between each of your shakes. The first day, around lunch time, I was starving, but after having the second shake, it seemed to get rid of some of the hunger cravings.

Before going to bed at night, I was thinking about how hungry I would be the next morning, but when I woke up I didn’t notice any cravings. I finished my second day on the shake and could feel my energy starting to wane.

With the Beachbody 2-Day Fast I managed to lose 5 pounds which surprised me and I even started to feel less sluggish and bloated when I started eating again. It was more mental I think as far as being able to go 2 days without eating, but it was a learning experience that I think I’ll continue every other month just to get rid of the toxins in my body.
