You don't know what it is and yet you are ready to get started?

Yes,I completed it. Cant say I see results, I will do another round
If you read the reviews and the case study for these types a programs, most people required 1-2 rounds befor they actually saw results. Just keep moving, the change will come.

You didn't see results and yet you want to do it again?

Hi!

I completed 1 round of the 21 Day Fix about a month ago. My husband also did it with me! I lost 8 pounds and 5 inches off of my total measurements. He lost 12 pounds and 7 inches off of his totally measurements. I was looking to lose about 10 pounds, which is the amount of weight I had gained after my wedding. I have accomplished that goal. My husband has lost 70 pounds over the last 2 years and is under 200 pounds for the first time since High School. The 21 Day Fix helped him push thru a plateau. We are still following the food plan 90% of the time - it's really all about portion control! And, we are still doing the DVD workouts 5 days a week. He does other weight training and I am a Zumba addict so I do that on the side.

At what point in the process (what day even) did you fall off the wagon? Did something happen? You mention NO Beachbody coaches? Did you have a coach that you didn't like or wasn't supportive? Do you have a friend that you can do the Fix with?

I think it's totally do-able program and in my opinion one of the more manageable ones out there! It really teaches you a lot about food and portions and I liked the 30 minute workouts! You get in, and get out w/ those workouts and get on with your busy day!

Are you a coach? You sound like a coach! Solid first post though


OP - All the 21 day fix does is take your money.
You can do it for free.....eat a caloric deficit and move a little more.

My thoughts exactly. LOL.

I am a very shy guy and I never post anything cuz I don't really like to put myself out there, though I love reading success stories for inspiration. I started my weight loss journey on June 1st 2014 by just walking on the treadmill with a starting weight of 422 lbs. I lost about 10 lbs after the first month, then my wife introduced 21 day fix to me, which I thought was the biggest scam ever and was a waste of our hard earned money to buy a few containers and a stupid book. Needless to say, I decided to try it, but rather than go for only 21 days, I made it a lifestyle change. I don't know if its the 21 day fix or the walking 45 minutes a day on the treadmill 4 days a week, but this morning I weighed myself and I am down to 359 lbs, I kid you not, no supplement pills (only a vitamin pill in the morning), no surgery, nothing special being done. I don't count calories, I just eat measured portions every day of whatever the heck I want (with a few exceptions of course, no soda, no fried foods, minimal white carbs, etc). The program comes with a bunch of workout videos but my lazy fat *kitten* wasn't about to do some silly workout video in my living room with the kids snickering in the background (in my opinion). F.Y.I. I am NOT A SPOKESPERSON for the 21 Day Diet, just an average guy who decided to make a lifestyle change using the 21 Day diet as a model to portion out my food, so in my opinion, what have you got to lose, give it a shot, it might help you out.

Before yesterday, I would have had no idea what you were talking about. Thanks to being at the hospital at 4:30am and seeing the infomercial, it seems like a waste of money. It's essentially just portion control and an eating plan plus a workout video. You can do all of that yourself for much cheaper.

Find a workout you enjoy. I'd never stick with that program because I don't have coordination and I'd hate every second of the video. I personally like lifting weights and elliptical for cardio. Finding a program you enjoy and don't see as something you HAVE to do is key. I have no problem getting to the gym in the morning because I enjoy it. Not being able to lift for a month is killing me.

The nutrition also doesn't have to be hard and you don't need any special containers. Focus on eating nutrient dense foods. Weigh your food and preplan your days. Count calories accurately (see this guide: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1234699-logging-accurately-step-by-step-guide). Make sure you eat at a reasonable deficit.

All these programs are selling what I just told you to do. Each one has found a unique way to market it, but you are completely able to do it on your own for free.

I've not tried the 21 day fix, but I have had some success.

I was interested in it too, but two weeks ago I made the decision to eat primal, NOTHING processed. I eat fruit, veggies, meat, and healthy fats. I have cut out added sugar (natural is fine), grains, and dairy (soy, almond, and rice milk are great alternatives), and legumes, but only for the first 21 days and will slowly be adding them back in to see what affects me negatively. I thought it would be hard, but I just cook a big helping on sundays or mondays and eat from that all week snacking on pistachios, walnuts, bananas, and avocados. I've lost 7 lbs in those two weeks. I was stuck at a plateau for a few months. I don't think you need this gimmic. Look at your goals page and setup your macros. Protein and healthy fats are important! And you can get healthy carbs from fruits and veggies. People always think bread for carbs, but you just have to do your research.
