21 day fix..anyone not like it..? If not, what did you not like about it..?

I like the structure of the nutrition plan. I am a disaster with IIFYM or plain CI/CO; I will survive on protein bars and soup if left to my own devices. I prefer something where I can be a little neurotic. I find I'm eating much healthier overall, in that I'm actually eating fruits and vegetables now. I also grew up on old-school WW, when they had daily allowances of carbs, protein, etc., so the 21DF system is very familiar in that regard. That said, I refuse to pay for color-coded Tupperware; I found a website where someone posted their capacities, and went with that. I measure everything as per the guidelines on that site, following the container allowances I get based on my weight (there are calculators available online). I also have a glass or two of wine on weekends, and I flat-out refuse to trade in one of my yellow containers for that wine.

I don't follow the workout routine, as I'm up for foot surgery in a few weeks. I've heard good things about the routine itself, but also read the same reviews you did about the DVDs skipping. I have BeachBody On Demand, and was loving P90X3 before my foot got bad (the foot condition is not related to P90X).

I am not a BeachBody "coach", nor do I drink that shake.... stuff.

I really enjoy it. I will say I have never had one skip. I do order mine through BB so I get their warranty on the videos. I do not use Shakeology either and it is not required to follow the eatting plan. I will admit I love this part. The containers make it super easy.

I have not done it, but know people who have. They seemed to really like the workouts.

MLM = multi=level marketing. BB= beachboody. EAS shakes are over the counter protein shakes you can buy them pretty much everywhere.

@queenliz99 thanks for the recommendation on my thread

OP, you would be better off to use a food scale than the food system. I do hear good things about their workouts though.

It supports an MLM company, they are scammers.

How are they scammers? I have used Beachbody products for years. I lost weight and never got scammed. Plus met a bunch of great people.

Some of the "coaches" are less than ethical, going for a sale above all else.

I get that. But that's not a scam. There are sales people all over the place. Just thought it was an unfair statement. Avon, marykay...all those places are mlm. And people selling their products.

So you get the unethical part but that is not a scam. Huh

Do some research before you badmouth a company. And don't put words into my mouth. I didn't say unethical. I said yeah some people can just be in it for the sale... again, that is everywhere. But the company is good. The products work. Even if the ciaches are in it for a sale, they are still selling the customer something they want and something thst actuslly works. Not a scam. I stand behind it 100%. If they were so horrible they wouldn't be still out there.

Lol....Beachbody has lots of programs. I think your referring to the Ultimate reset. Do you even know what that is? One part of the reset actually helps remove waste from the colon... in other words detox.
