One Week of Change

It's been 1 week since I started 21 Day Fix. I wasn't expecting much from it considering how much I am allowed to eat but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised when I stepped on the scale yesterday!

 I honestly thought I'd lose maybe a pound or two, not 6! I've always been pretty skeptical of any weight loss programs. I'm not a fan of sales pitches mostly because they are pretty transparent to me. My mom is an extraordinary sales woman and I know the tricks. Usually when I see adds for anything weight loss related I cringe. But I FULLY endorse this program. It's healthy and educational. I've learned so much about clean eating already and I don't feel deprived for the first time in my life. My body functions better after a week of the Shakeology and healthy eating. I can't wait to see what a month will feel like.

Anyway, If you are interested in knowing more about the stuff feel free to check out this presentation I made to explain it better. Awesome Presentation HERE!

Day 1, Round 1

Today I began on 21 Day Fix! So far I am really liking it. It's actually A LOT of food! Also, Shakeology is DELICIOUS. It's not grainy like other protein shakes I have had. I'll walk you through my day so far.

This morning I rolled out of bed at 6am and concocted this delicious breakfast:

I used 2 of my teaspoons for peanut butter, 1 of my yellow cups for 8oz of Original Almond Milk, 1 Scoop Shakeology and a good amount of ice. Blended it all up and added a little water to tone down the thickness. It's pretty darn good! Tomorrow I will be trying it with coffee.

Kicked my butt before 9am:

I am following the schedule on the calendar in the start book. Thursday was Pilates Fix or I think Abs. I chose Pilates because it was one that I was excited to try. OMG. THAT. BURN. At one point I could barely lift my legs to do my stretch. It felt like I was physically in a class at the gym. It was easy to follow and the modifications definitely do give you a workout if you choose to do some or all of them.

Chugged A LOT of water:

They give you the formula for figuring out the amount of water you should try to consume. Because I weigh quite a lot the number was... HUGE. I should be drinking roughly 143ish ounces daily. So far I am nursing 74.4. 

Snack Time!

For my first snack I had Cucumbers and Pineapple. I put black pepper on the cucumber to keep myself from eating hummus and using my blue cup before dinner. And of course... the water.

That's the most I documented before I devoured lunch and took a nap. The program is great so far though and I would highly recommend it to anyone. It's flexible, filling, and a lot of fun!

It's HERE!

After waiting for what felt like forever (roughly 5 days) my coach start-up and 21 Day Fix Challenge pack came in with my Vegan Chocolate Shakeology. Before you ask, I am not a Vegan, I'm simply not a fan of Whey. It was torture not sampling the Shakeo but I refuse to waste a drop. I'm starting first thing in the morning.

I took about an hour to go through all of the information given to me in the packet. Coaching now seems a lot less overwhelming and I would be happy to help anyone interested in joining my team or becoming a client! 

I will do a full review after day 1 and keep everyone updated on my progress with the program. I can already picture my wedding dress actually fitting! Ahhh... what a beautiful image.

Countdown Is ON!

Thursday night I finally made the decision to sign up as a Beachbody Coach and get the 21 Day Fix Challenge pack. Ever since then the suspense has been KILLING me.

It's times like these I wish I weren't so cheap and just sprung for the 2 day shipping. Also, does anyone else agree that following a tracking number is like watching the seconds on a microwave?! It feels like it's been 5 years.

In the meantime I guess I will just sit back and try not to jump at the sound of every loud vehicle that comes down my street. Wish me luck!
