Just thought I would share something that made me feel rewarded. We have one of those fancier scales with an app that tells you a lot about your body. ( If not everyone knows, I did my cleanse on Saturday/sunday/monday to make myself more available to watch my 22 month granddaughter Tues-Fri this week. ) When I got on the scale this morning I saw that I had reduced my metabolic age by 2 yrs! A lot of other numbers improved too so I’m happy I completed my quest in The Glow Up! I found that the warm drinks provided rewards and the juices were more satisfying. So combined them through out the day. Only 1 day left so remind yourself that you got this!!!

Greetings Glow Up Family! This is my personal recipe (and pic)💚 You should be eating lighter meals over the next few days leading up to the 3-Day juice cleanse and this is the perfect recipe. Enjoy and if you prepare this soup, please share your experience and pics!
