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!

First Time Meal Prep!

Tonight I spent about an hour and a half prepping food for 6 days ahead. I purchased multiple food storage containers, lots of veggies and fruits and a digital food scale which I can already say paid for itself.

I didn't really prepare for my shopping trip so I was lacking enough containers for 6 days worth of lunches and breakfasts. That works out for now because the stuff I did buy probably shouldn't be left prepared for more than the 3 days worth of containers I have.

Breakfast:

1/2 cup Vanilla Honey Greek Yogurt (containing probiotics)
A hand full of fresh chopped strawberries and blueberries
1/4 cup Granola

Lunch:

1 small taco sized flower tortilla
1oz hummus
A few slices Avocado (with lemon juice to help it keep longer)
2oz Sliced Ham
1.5 oz cubed colby cheese

Dinner:

1/2 cup Quinoa & Brown Rice
3/4 Cup Sauteed Spinach, Mushrooms and Peppers (for 3 days)
3/4 Cup Steamed Broccoli Cuts (for 3 days)
2.5oz of Over Roasted Bonless Skinless Chicken Breast topped with a salt free grilling seasoning.

*Note: I would have done 3oz of chicken each day but I was short a chicken breast

I can honestly say it will be a whole lot easier eating healthy when I don't have as much opportunity to make poor choices, As the saying goes, "If you fail to plan, plan to fail" or something like that.
