21 Day Fix Extreme Countdown to Competition (One week in)

Posted on by
Reply

The 21 Day Fix Extreme is one of my absolute favorite workouts. Its tough but they last 30 min and it is the one my body reacts to the best. Meaning I see results the fastest with this. I have done this one 3-4 times. But I have never done the full Count Down to Competition meal plan before. Throwing in a day or 2 of this is usually what I do. In fact I have only actually followed this full meal plan once. Generally I eat pretty good. But I have my moments. I freaking love food.

I could not get my shit together with my nutrition and I was feeling it. Sluggish, bloated. Pretty much everything I have fighting my endometriosis on the last yr was coming back. So I went all in. (not to say I didn’t have slip ups or a cheat.)

How does this work?

The 21 Day fix or portion fix meal plan is based on weight. You take your weight multiple by caloric baseline. Add your caloric needs. And subtract you caloric deficit depending on if you want to lose or maintain. If I am speaking a foreign language this is all mentioned in the meal plan book of The 21 Day Fix Extreme!

From that you get a Calorie Bracket that gives you a number of containers that you can have each day.

daily-calorie-bracket-beachbody

I am in the 1500-1799 bracket. The colors have different nutritional meaning.

Green – Veggies

Purple – Fruit

Red – Protein

Yellow – Carbs

Blue – healthy fats/ cheese

Orange – dressing / seeds

Tsp- nut butter / oil

The Countdown to competition plan is limited carbs, veggies, high protein and some healthy oils.


The schedule looks like this 2 days on one day off.

I allowed Saturday to be my cheat day. And in one week I lost 4.8 lbs. not sure on the inches I could not find my tape measure when I was starting. Here is a progress pic so far.

Currently on day 10. Am going strong. Finding that planning out the day more helps so much! And I am pretty excited to see what 21 days on this meal plan is going to do for me.

Why you should stop quitting your health journey.

The first reason… This is a big one. Starting over sucks. Like big time.
Think about it you work your ass off, to get derailed. Throw your hand up in the air. Oh well I’m done. I fucked up…

Let’s take a look at what happens when you quit working out.


At first your body is like oh hey! Let’s recover. That’s great sometimes you need that.

But eventually (a week) not very much time right? You start to lose the muscle definition you worked so hard to put on. Then it all goes down hill.

Maybe you quit because you’re not seeing a difference. What about what is happening inside of you? To your heart? You can’t see those changes! And it can take some time to notice an outward difference! That is why I always say take pics!

Let me ask you one more thing. When are you going to stop giving up on yourself? Stop quitting on  yourself! As a coach I want you to succeed to be happy and healthy. But when you quit, your disappointing yourself!

Be so determined that nothing will get in your way!

Be…

What’s up?!!!!!

Heyyyyyyyy!! Sorry no blog posts in a while! I am just adjusting with this thing called life! You know what I mean?!


Ok so nothing went wrong! It did however change! I am like freaking rain man and you change up my schedule I am a mess! So I got a job folks! Waitressing… Only on the weekends. With the hubbys schedule it’s all I could do.

I love my kids but after being in the house for the last 8 yrs… I was starting to lose my fucking mind! So I made this decision (with the hubster) for me and my fam. Still doing Beachbody! Just needed a change! But wow am I out of it…

It’s been 3 weeks now lol.

So fitness wise! I just completed again the 21 day fix extreme Sunday.   Pretty pumped with my results!


  
Workouts are a strong point for me!!

It’s nutrition that is way harder! I really love to eat! A lot… seriously besides sex it’s my favorite! Hahahahaha I feel way better when I eat good and I look better! Drinking beer and wine is up there in my list too but it takes days to recover.


Not perfect! Working on getting better! With nutrition I’m either on point or eating everything I can get my hands on… Oh well. This is life! I’m working on the moderation thing again! I refuse to tell myself I can’t have something.

Newest workout came out Dec 1st!

IMG_1040
So I ordered it!! These 2 trainers are my personal favorites! I love their workouts so having the together makes me super happy and excited! (I’m lame I get it!)

How to Successfully stick to a fitness plan.

Working out for me is such a HABIT that for me it is weird when I do not do it. I am just so used to working out, that I feel bad when I don’t. Now Do Not take this as I am being obsessive, or ridiculous. I know when my body needs a break and believe me when I feel that way I take it!

11193305_10153430528530921_3516769540170224511_n

So how did I get where I am now? What keeps me going?

Research shows that it takes 21 Days to form a habit. Think about that. That is only 3 weeks. Does not seem like a  real long time am I right? So if you have to torture yourself for such a short amount of time for a healthy habit, for something that will improve your life why not do it? Seriously?

So what you need to do…

  • Schedule it. Make it as important as a Doctors appointment or a business meeting. You don’t skip those!
  • Pick a time and workout at that time daily. For me it is first thing in the morning. Weekends too unless its a rest day. I get up drink my pre workout, pee (hahahah TMI), then hit play. Now sometimes it does not go as planned. But does that mean I say fuck it and throw in the towel? Nope. It will make me feel better. Somedays, a 30 min workout takes triple the time because my kids need me. They have gotten better with it though so this does not happen as much anymore.
  • Let your significant other know this is important to you. That you will be working out and you need this time.
  • Remember that it is not selfish to take care of yourself. Sometimes you need to put you first.
  • If your day does not go as planned and you cannot fit it in. Do Not get discouraged just move your schedule back one day!
  • Quitting is not an option.
  • Have a Strong Why. What do I mean by this, this is the reason why you started on the journey to begin with. Really think about it. It has to be so strong that you will always go back to what you were doing. 10881666_10153186596365921_86908588061412141_n
  • Triggers! Set out your workout clothes, go to a gym then leave a gym bag in your car, set a reminder on your phone, have an accountability partner text you, put on your workout gear as soon as you wake up, this list is endless. Basically do whatever you need to so you Move your ASS!
  • Pick something you actually like to do. If you like to run do that, lift, dance, yoga, I don’t give a shit. Pick something. Want to workout at home, great, a gym great. Just do something.
  • Don’t get discouraged. Sometimes the scale won’t move. Think about everything that you are doing that is good for yourself! Remember those little NSVs!

NonScale-Victory

Hope this helps you!! Keep moving forward. Don’t compare yourself to others. What good is it going to do for you? You have no idea what leg of the journey someone else is on! Be supportive of one another for the same reason. You supporting someone else may help you stay motivated!

21 day fix meal plan

So yesterday was the day after Halloween, in my newsfeed all day I see pics of candy and Beachbody coaches how many green is this. LOL funny, but why does the meal plan work. What the hell do you do, and keep talking about it. Because whether you are making a joke or being truthful. You are still getting it out there!

Unknown-1

In the past I have done Weight Watchers and just plain clean eating. Weight watchers really does work. But I got sick of counting points. I also would save all extra for beer and if I knew I was drinking eat carrot sticks and half a sandwich so i could drink my points. Not really healthy Kala. LOL. If weight watchers works for you, continue on with it! Just use it the right way. I lost weight on in but not healthy. I would sometimes use a bulk of my points in one meal and everything else would be free foods.

Clean eating is ideal because it gets your body to the ideal weight. But you can have too much of  a good thing sadly. Learning how much is too much can be hard.

The 21 day fix meal plan teaches you how much of each food group to have in a day. You can follow a plan to lose and a plan to maintain. Once you get the portion sizes down you don’t need to containers anymore. But it really taught me how much to eat and of what. Surprisingly some of the time, i was not eating enough. Others I was eating too much… Just because the salad you order has 8 cups of veggies, does not mean that you have to eat the entire thing…

It also has helped me plan the day way better!! I plan out dinner then I know how many containers I have left to use throughout the day!

So, how do you know how many of each do you get? You get a formula based on your wight and if you want to maintain or lose. Then you are put in a calorie range.

Unknown-2

From there you get a certain amount of containers to eat through out the day. Easy! Right?

It is a ton of food! You are not hungry! And once you are finished you just know how to eat right. If I indulge too much, I just go right back to it because when I am on it I do not feel like I am missing out on anything!

So you want to try the plan, but you prefer to workout in a gym… You can get just the containers and meal plan here.

The workouts are all 30 min long and you go through a variety of exercises each day, there is a modifier and 2 separate plans. The regular and extreme. Regular 21 Day Fix, I believe that anyone can do. Any fitness level! There is someone there modifying every move so you can follow her if necessary. The 21 Day Fix Extreme is advanced. It is for anyone that feels ready after the 21 day fix and wants more of a challenge. This too has a modifier but it is more extreme.

I love both of these programs, they are always ones I go back to. The moves are basic and effective. Autumn Calabrese definitely knows what she is doing.

So I have not written in a while…

To be honest for a good few weeks I was just rolling through the motions. (is that a saying? Hmmmmmm… Whatever.) But I was not practicing what I preach.  I freaking hate that! How can I tell people eat healthy, workout, the 2 go together. If I am only doing one of those? Working out, is such a habit for me that when I don’t I feel funky. Think of me as Rain man with dumbbells. But I was eating horrible. I believe in moderation and cheats, but I was being ridiculous. I would have one good day and I am not even sure if that would count, because I would be sneaking shit. Then it would be 3 days of binging. Out of Control.

I am a Beachbody Coach. I do that because health and fitness are a passion for me. I started this journey to be a Better Version of Myself. Improve my mood and my health. Oh and smaller pants was a perk. All for the kiddos and me. Right?

I started to feel Fluffy. My clothes were tight. This makes me moody. I hate being uncomfortable in my clothes, some days I felt like my skin was tight… You can’t escape that shit. My energy and my mood was bad, I did not want to do anything. Leaving the house was a chore.  I started to feel like depression was coming back. EFFF that.


My family and I went away this weekend. It was great. Seriously had a wonderful time. Pigged out again. Drank too much again. Came home to feel sluggish.

Monday morning, I hop on the scale… WTF. I knew it would be bad. But not that number. I usually say the scale is just a number. But when it is going up and you feel like crap, that number matters. There was an unused 3 Day Refresh in my cupboard. I had no intentional plan to do it yet. This pushed me. I had to get out of my funk. I had to find my passion again, which is helping others with their health. But first. I had to help myself. I had to put me first for a little.

So I did it.

And today I feel AMAZING! Seriously. I have not felt this well rested in forever. I don’t feel like a slug I leaped through my kitchen at 5:45 AM. My husband looked at me like I was insane. Super normal BTW, I am a weirdo.

My Results were the best they have ever been ( I also Started the 21 Day Fix Extreme again).

So here they are…


I lost 5.8 lbs.


5 inches


I gained my better mood and energy. Also the intention to keep eating healthy and allowing moderation again. I do not want to feel like I was. Or act like I was (Bitchy).

So now I ask you! Are you ready to do something for yourself? Feel happy and healthy (you can totally tell when you are healthy.) If that answer is finally YES! I want to help!!

Moms… Why should you workout?

I have been thinking of writing this for a while. Went back and forth. First of all I am not sure who reads what I write, second I don’t want anyone to think I am speaking just to moms. But thats what I am and this works for me. I truly believe everyone should workout. I think it is important for your health and really goes hand in hand with proper nutrition. But as a Mom. Why I work out are these key reasons.

(I have taken the last week off due to pulling something in my neck. I was told by my PT to do cardio that does not jar the upper body. Well… I took a break I want to heal, hoping to be back this coming Monday! Want to know something cool… I always come back now.)
image

You want to stick around for a LONG TIME

My dad passed at 51. Missed seeing weddings and 3 grand babies born. I refuse to do that. I will be here my kids are gonna be so sick of me

Stress Relief. 

You do all day for everyone. Being a mom is hard and it never stops EVER! The stress is constant. But for 30 min when I am in my own world. Blasting whatever music I am in the mood for and letting it all out. It makes me a better mom, a better wife, a better person.

Confidence

This is something I never really had. I never thought I was pretty or thin enough. I had a baby at 17 and gained a ton. I was always comparing myself to someone else. Now I do not give a shit. This may be getting older. But a big part is the body I have now, stretch marks and all I worked my ass off to get. That boosts you.

Showing my kids to care for themselves

My kids see every single day, what I do. They make good choices, sometimes they join me in my workouts.
image

Sleep…

Oh how I love sleep and now I am out like a light. Do I still get tired? Yep I have a ton on my plate. But when I sleep its good.

Taking care of Me

We do for everyone. Why aren’t we taking care of ourselves? Don’t you want to really be able to enjoy what you have?

Learning your body

Exercise is a great way to be in tune for your body. Knowing aches and pains, and what is working and what is not.

Vain

hahahaha what? I am 30. Not old, not young either. But I still get carded. BOOM! Taking care of yourself shows!!

Sex Life

It is just better. How often do you and your significant other do the deed? You should be active with them. its a big part of marriage that connection. My sex life got better when I started to take care of myself. Do it for that. Worth it…

DO IT FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THAT YOU ARE WORTH IT!

ATTENTION Stay at Home Moms… Or Dads

Have you lost yourself. I mean seriously? For a while there all I could relate to was being a mom, and it is pretty awesome. But what happened to the me before I had kids? To be honest, I was so young I hadn’t even found myself yet! Then you have this great little miniature you (which is scary as hell sometimes). You’re kind of floating, lost in being just a Mom (Dad) that you don’t really know how to relate to anyone. Except how to talk about your kiddos. Right? Because everyone wants to her how your 2 yr old went pee on the potty! (Exciting Shit, but unless they are in the same situation do people really care?) 

So I was lost, then I started working out and I heard about this little thing called being a Beachbody Coach. I was already doing the programs, they were fantastic, I wanted to help and connect with people. So I figured why not… Right what did I have to lose? So I signed up. I became a coach.

I was introduced to this community of people, who got me!! I became not just a mom. But a wife (who had also gotten her body back RAWR), a Friend, a Team Mate, a Leader, and a Motivator. I have bonded with people and opened myself up to so many possibilities. I love and believe in myself now. I know who I am and I don’t give a shit what anyone else thinks about me, or this “thing” I am doing. Because If i get one person to Find and Believe in themselves again, if I get one person to get off of their ass and do something that will benefit them, I am happy.

All of this started from One little word… YES.

So I want to ask you something? Why not YOU?

Now hiring! Get the PASSION back in your life!
