Following the Standard Schedule
It may be easiest for you to replace breakfast and lunch as it’s quick and easy to have a shake on the run before work and during work and that way you can sit down to dinner with your family or friends. Of if you work shifts, or prefer to have your main meal at lunch then this is okay too. Whatever suits you best!
In addition to your two shakes, you also have a healthy morning and afternoon snack (100-120 cal each) and your one main whole foods meal (400 – 600 cal). That’s five meals you get to have on an Isagenix Shake Day!
The IsaLean shakes are delicious and they will keep you full for longer. What surprises most people on an Isagenix Shake Day is how full and satisfied they feel. The IsaLean shakes have 240 cal so around 1100 – 1300 cal are consumed per day on this plan, keeping your body nourished and feeling sustained.
Snack Ideas: 100 – 120 Calories
Enjoy a 100 – 120 calorie snack in the mid-morning and mid-afternoon. A combination of healthy fats, carbohydrates and protein is recommended to satisfy hunger and keep you full for longer.

How And When To Customise Your Shake Day
It’s not necessarily a one-size-fits all when it comes to the daily energy requirements of a person. Activity level, gender, and body size can each greatly influence a person’s calorie requirements, creating the need for more food.
For example, men typically have larger frames and more muscle mass to support than women. A 6-foot man of average weight and activity level could require upwards of 2,700 calories just to maintain weight, while a 6-foot, 7-inch tall man might easily require more than 3,500 calories. And regardless of body size or gender, a person who is extremely active or works a physically demanding job will also have higher energy requirements.
A person requiring 3,000 calories per day put on a regimen providing just 1,500 calories likely wouldn’t stay on it long. It would lead to hunger and fatigue. The best plan is the one that cuts calories by the minimum amount needed to produce fat loss, or around 500 calories below what is needed to maintain weight.
If you find comfort in the one-size-fits-all instructions offered by the 30-Day System, the idea of modifying your Shake Day may be a little intimidating at first. But don’t worry! We’ve put together a step-by-step guide that will not only help you to determine whether you need to modify your Shake Day, but will also show you how to customize your Shake Day to ensure weight-loss success.
