Day 1 of Round 1 of the 21 Day Fix. I have had this for 4 months, I tried it for one day and said screw it. Thought it's to restrictive, I can eat more on WW. In the past I fall off the WW wagon because of how I use my weekly points. I basically would have a free day every week and have heard time getting back onto track after that. My friend who is a Beach Body Coach and the one I ordered from told me that Beach Body was funding a diet bet and I could participate. The last I heard the pot was at 1.5 Million and I figured that even if I get $20 bucks that would be cool. After hearing about all the success my friends have been having with the 21 Day Fix lately that I need to give this a real try. So I ordered some bento boxes from Amazon to pack my lunches each week. Today was Labor Day so we were home all day and I never got my lunches packed for this week hopefully tomorrow after work I can get them packed.
Here is what you need to know about the 21 Day fix. Thee is no counting points or calories. They have a calculation that tells you how many of each container you get. And you can fill the container to the brim as long as the lid can still go on. The size of these things seem really small and I was a little concerned but I was pleasantly surprised today when I found my self full and satisfied. Except for fighting this evenings munchies but that is always the hard part of dieting right? There is also the work outs so today I got my first one in and I followed the modified version and it still kicked my butt! I felt like I do when I work out with a personal trainer but it was at home with my TV. This is going to be an interesting journey.
Here are what my meals looked like today.
 |
2 Scrambled eggs, strawberries & 1/2 English Muffin w/ Almond Butter |

Chocolate Shakology with an Orange |
 |
Chicken Quesadilla |

Salad with chicken, apples, grapes and 21 Day fix dressing

Tomorrow I hope schedule for more food for snacks. I realize I was short because I was more concerned about having enough to eat. I was filling my containers and really probably only needed half of a couple of them and would have had some left over for my snack tonight. Well lesson learned. Tomorrow will be easier to stay on plan but Wednesday is when the boys start school and I will have to get up super early to pull off my work outs and getting the kids off to school then to work. I am thinking I may have to work out at night but I just don't know where the time is going to be easier to find. I know the morning there is nothing else on my plate at 5:45 AM, except sleep. Or it would have to be done after the kids are in chill mode around 7:30 at night. When I was working out with a trainer last time it was so nice to be done with my work out first thing and not have to think about it after that point. When it is later it is kind of the thing your thinking about all day and dreading. But knowing my habit of staying up to late and lack of sleep, along with the boys having to get up so much earlier for school. I just don't know if the mornings will be an option but skipping the work outs are not. One day down 20 more to go for this round.
