    Okay, for those who have done this before. How do I figure out what containers to count if I am making any kind of recipe?

    To everyone on here I'm new as well just downloaded this today. Started my 21 day fix yesterday. I'm going to add a bunch of you of you don't mind. To keep me motivated and on track. I will be a buddy to anyone as well. I always have trouble sticking with it and this one seems good. I enjoyed the first day but am sore.

    It's for lazy people that don't want to do the hard work themselves

    I think 21 Day Fix would be great for those who are very insecure about what to eat and how much. I don't think using just MFP is hard work; it's fun to plan my meals myself from scratch, and I like that it's so flexible. But we're all different and need different approaches.

    When you're putting the ingredients in, take not of how many containers you're putting in. Then when you're portioning it into servings, you divide by that amount! :-)

    Hello!! I started the 21 day fix on Monday and have already lost 4.2 pounds!! I love this program, and the workouts are so doable but still so challenging. I am not a beach body coach nor do I drink shakeology, but I strongly recommend this program to anyone who has troubles with portions. Please add me for support!

    I just started today, So day 1 down for me. I love it. I dont think it is for lazy people. I think it is for people looking for a place to start while they learn about fitness and keeping fit.

    Good Luck everyone. I need some help and motivation as well so i would love it if any or all of you added me as well.

    You are entitled to your opinion. However, I'll have you know that I spend a few hours researching the best recipes and then shopping for the food. Spent another couple hours preparing 2 meals for the week and portioning out my meals for next few day. Tomorrow I'll start completing the workouts. I'm not even done for the week, to me this doesn't qualify as "lazy"

    I'll learn good habits and work my butt off and when I'm a little more in shape I'll work out for more than just the 30 minutes required by the program. When I get results I'll post some pictures for you to check out. Then see if you think this is a "lazy" program :smile:

    I started the 21 day fix on the 5th. You are welcome to add me if you like. I lost 4.8 pounds that first week-weigh in was today. I know I won't lose that much in future weeks since much of that was water weight from cutting out processed foods that are full of sodium, but it sure is motivating. The last time I tried it, I gained 4 pounds and was so depressed, I quit, but it was probably water weight from pms. So don't get discouraged and stop like I did.
    Also, don't pay any mind to the lazy comment. That woman obviously has issues which cause her to be unsupportive and negative. Good luck, LL!

    Starting today, feel free to add me. I'd love the support and accountability as well!

    A question for those who have already done it or are doing it now, how do you log these workouts? I have no heartrate monitor (this is what others have suggested).

    Thanks!
