Curious about the 21 Day Fix?

Many of you have heard or seen something about the 21 Day Fix. If you haven't, here is a quick synopsis. A LOT of people are doing the 21 Day Fix program. It is an AMAZING program. There is an emphasis to eat healthy as well as working out. They go hand in hand.  This was designed by Autumn Calabrese, a celebrity fitness trainer. Utilizing a container system to help you measure out how much food you should be eating. 21 Day Fix teaches clean eating and portion control. Because of how this program is set up, you can maintain this long term and not just for a crash diet.  The containers are very deceiving though, it does not look like a lot of food inside the containers.  When you put in on your plate, you can see that you will not be going hungry.

Here are a few tips that will help you get down to business quickly and help you meal plan more efficiently.

1. When you get the system, read the book. Make sure you are reading the book from cover to cover. Read it twice. Keep reading the book until you are familiar with the program. This will help you be so much more successful and reach your goals more efficiently.

2. Plan a weeks worth of meals. I plan my meals a week in advance. This helps when shopping to avoid the dreaded cart full of items you didn't actually need.  When I first started the 21 Day Fix, I planned a weeks worth of 21DF approved meals and just repeated them for all three weeks.

3. Stick to the plan. Make sure to stick to the eating guide, especially the first time. I carried the book with me everywhere to make sure I was eating clean for the first two rounds I completed. Everything I ate was written down. After you get the hang of it, you are able to ease up on how strict you follow the program. Nowadays, I am able to eyeball ingredients and figure container portions in my head.

4. Plan dinners first. Dinner most of the time uses the most containers for me. Once I plan dinner, I can plan the rest of the meals around it.  Some people eat the same thing for breakfast every day. If you are like me, that gets boring quickly. Planning helps me to make sure I am utilizing the program to the fullest.  Shakeology is a great option for breakfast on the go! After you figure out your three meals, planning snacks is a breeze.

5. Find recipes you enjoy.  You will not be successful if you do not enjoy what you eat. Cardboard is not tasty, your food should be. Pinterest has so many different 21 Day Fix recipes? Pinterest can be you new best friend. A simple google search can bring up recipes as well. Watch the ingredient lists though, when in doubt leave it out.

6. Success is multiplied with support. When you have a support system, you are more able to reach and achieve goals. My Beachbody team has an amazing Facebook group, with lots of motivational stories from others, recipes and tips to help you succeed with the system. This support group is free with your program and was created to help you reach your goals. Family is a great support system when they are able to help you stick to your goals.
