@germany03 it's always a bummer when the scale moves in the wrong direction but you can't let it get to you. Gotta trust the system. It will move back down, trust me keep doin what you're doing and you'll see results! The scale didn't move for me for well over a week and now it's steadily going down.
I use six star whey protein from wm. it's like $20 and I like the taste, seems to be working well for me too. I'm currently trying a different one cause it was on sale and cookies and cream flavoured which sounded so appealing but my god is it awful lol I miss my six star.

Lower fix extreme done today! Day 18 whaaaaat. 21 days goes by so fast. Excited to see my results. Don't think I will do it again though, at least not right away. Thinking t25 or piyo.

Wow way to go @Deuxtrouble43 ! What a difference in your photos as well you look great!
I've been weighing myself every day the last few weeks as well. Hard habit to break, lol. I can understand how happy you are seeing 139.
My goal is 140, 130 would be great but 140 is really my goal at the moment. I was 120 pre babies, was 205 when I gave birth to my second baby in December. Now I am at 156! Was stuck at 160 for what seemed like forever (at the time) and was so happy to see 159 on the scale. Like SO happy, now I'm in the "normal" range with my bmi too. Yay!

21 day fix?
I'm on it right now!! Today is day 12. I'm doing the extream version and I love it! Day 3 was the hardest for me. Now I am doing great and already down 7 lbs, hard for me to do this since I'm already an ok healthy weight. I chose this because I have had eating problems in the past, and this is a way of training your body to eat health natural foods. I'm not starving even a little bit. I highly recommend this program

Cardio fix extreme done. Omg it felt brutal today. The whole time I just wanted it be over ... And then there were burpees. Bleh. Got her done tho.
Hope everyone is having a good Friday!

Skipped my workout yesterday so I'm doing doubles today - so much easier to get your workout in when you don't have to go to work at 6am.lol.... Upper Fix is done...will do Lower Fix tonight. Have a great weekend everyone and be safe!
No wine day of me today @Deuxtrouble43 but Pinnacle whip with orange juice tomorrow ( I know it's not 21DF approved, but I have to live a little tomorrow haha)

Today was my first day on the fix. I just did total body cardio fix and my legs feel like jello! I did have to modify a few things and take a break here and there but I did it! Anyone else starting today? Add me as a friend and we can keep each other accountable!

Awesome results @venuila ....congrats!!!

Will be starting the fix soon. Wanted to jump in and get some insight before I do. Can't wait to share ups and downs, results and set backs but most of all determination to once and for all beat this battle with weight and food.

P.S read some post and truly motivating and inspiring.

Well Day 2. planned all my meals so I am ready.

Made some ww vegetable soup last night to have as a snack when I get cold (my office is freezing).

Recipe below with modifications to change it up with other flavours (Chinese/Mexican/Italian)

I usually end up with about 4 servings

1/4 cup diced onion
2 packets instant chicken broth and seasoning mix (I just use 2 oxo cubes)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced zucchini
1/2 cup thinly sliced carrot
1/2 cup chopped seeded tomato (I just use a can of stewed tomatoes)
1/4 tsp basil leaves
1/8 tsp pepper.
Crushed red pepper - to taste (optional)

1. in a 1 1/2 quart nonstick saucepan combine onion, broth mix, and garlic. Cook stirring occasionally until onion is translucent.

2. Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Cover and cook over low heat stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.

3. Add 2 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until veggies are soft about 20 minutes.

4. Using a slotted spoon remove 1/2 cup veggies and set aside. In blender container in 2 batches puree remaining soup, return pureed mixture to saucepan add reserved veggies and heat ( I just use my hand blender and puree it to a chunky state - I do not remove any of the soup)

Notes:

I usually add more zucchini, including yellow if its in the store, and a little more carrots and because of that add more water and get 4 servings.

To change the soup:

Italian: use Italian flavoured oxo cubes, Italian stewed tomatoes, and add some oregano and a little coriander.

Thai/Chinese: use Thai or Chinese flavoured oxo cubes, add some cilantro (no basil), ginger with the garlic, star anise, some mushrooms, pumpkin and red/green peppers and regular stewed tomatoes.

Mexican: use chicken oxo cubes, Mexican stewed tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, kidney beans or black beans and corn,

Just started day 2 of the 21 day fix with hybrid of a bunch of the programs.

1st day on the FIX. I can't wait for results.

Been a little absent here lately..and honestly with the excersise as well. Although I have been sticking with the containers and walking about 1 mile during lunch...work has me stretched so not much thought of doing workouts once I get home I give myself a few Lull days and then get back in the full swing ... need to get my MOJO back up...haha.
Welcome to all the new folks comming in...you have definitly found a great supportive group and chosen a great program...hope yall like it as much as I do ( even if I'm not the greatest at it right now .. ) !!!

Hi all! I have been bad about checking in since early last week, so I'll give a quick update:
Wednesday was the start of my last week. WOWO that went fast!
I've been doing pretty awesome, if I do say so myself!
Have not missed a workout, been sticking to (or under) the containers, and I just got shakeology in the mail yesterday, so have had 2 shakes now.
Wednesday, I did do the double workout, but yesterday I didn't. I made the mistake of working out after work, and I never have motivation, so I was lucky to get through the one I was supposed to do. BUT, hubby and I ended up taking a walk...it ended up being just under a 6 mile walk, unplanned (long story lol). So, I'm counting that as a second workout for the day!
Today I had Lower Fix w/ option 10 min ab fix...um, I only got through 5 mins of the ab fix, so hopefully the next time its scheduled I'll get it all in.

Now I am trying to decide if I want to do another round after a day or two off, or if I want to start lifting at the gym again, and just follow the containers....thoughts?

Congrats @noelleyaya !
I didn't have any morning sickness with either of my kids either. I probably wouldn't have known if it wasn't for the no period thing, heh. I gained more than 80lbs with my son though! And then about 45 with my daughter. They were pretty easy pregnancies, had some bad sciatic pain with my daughter for the last half of it though.
Don't worry, even if it gets a little rough it's worth it

Welcome to all the new folks. I'm still keepin up with t25/piyo throwing in a 21df workout here and there. Hope everyone has a good weekend!
