Prep and Plan... 21 Day Fix Extreme & Meal Plan!

Wahoo!  This day is finally here!  The anticipation of the 21 Day Fix Extreme has been huge over the last number of weeks!  Well, my copy came last week in perfect timing as I was finishing up my 60 days of Insanity Max:30.  (I'll update on that later)  So I finally had some time to sit down and plan for my first week of the 21 DF Extreme!

It is time to dig in and start planning!  I am going to be 100% honest with you.  My nutrition has been less than par during my 60 days of Insanity Max:30, I really was not proud of my results (or lack thereof!).  Mentally I was focused with the workouts but not at all with the nutrition...and it showed (or didn't).  So, I have decided to really give this my 100% commitment to the program and to myself!  Let's face it...I'm human, just like you, I have my "moments" that I'm not proud of and that I slip up on!!

BUT...I'm focused and ready to go, 100% all the way committed to the nutrition and fitness!  Really when it comes to committing to something it is a MENTAL game!  I truly believe this.  I know this makes a huge difference in my success, no matter what it is!  So I've mentally prepared myself to succeed...and telling myself I will succeed!

I prepped this weekend with my pictures and measurements taken.  I've shopped for all my groceries so that I know I have everything I need to be successful!!

So...let's get started!  My official start date is today, Monday...There are 2 different options in the nutrition guide that you can choose from.  The regular 21 Day Fix Extreme nutrition guide and then the Countdown to Competition.  This is an EXTREME nutrition plan.  Mentally...I'm not there yet!  I'm going to do the regular 21 DF Extreme nutrition to begin!!

I've prepared my meal plan for this first week...here it is!  I've made it simple to follow, simple recipes to ensure my success.  When I get "complicated" with my recipes then I tend to get messed up!  The other thing I have decided to use is an app tracker for the 21 Day Fix.  There are a few out there that you can take a look at.  For me...I decided to try this out.  I always have my phone with me, so that's not a problem.  If you don't want to buy an app, there are trackers you can print off from beachbody.com.

However...no matter how you track your nutrition, I highly encourage you to first make a meal plan.  I've found that the times I have the best success is when I've got a meal plan for the day (I make it a week at a time).  I know exactly what to eat and what not to eat.  I'm using my containers to make sure I have to correct sizes of each food.  Make sure you track your food, this WILL get you the best success possible!!

For the workouts, I'm starting off with a light and heavier pair of weights.  I'm starting with 5 lb weights and 8 lb weights.  I'll see if I need to adjust as time goes on.  I haven't used weights in my workouts for at least 60 days now, so I'm getting back into that!  I'm also going to be doing the 10 minute Hardcore (ab workout) 3 times a week!

21 Day Fix Extreme Nuts and Bolts... this is extreme fitness, extreme nutrition and you'll need to be focused and ready to commit to your nutrition and workouts!  You're not going to find cheats, treats or extra snacks on the 21 DF Extreme.  It is literally stripped down and you've got to be ready to push yourself to the extreme!  This will help you shed those last 10 lbs that everyone hates!!
