Hey everyone! I've been gone for a week with a nasty upper respiratory infection. I haven't really moved since Monday trying to kick it. My food went to crap too, but i managed to only gain 0.3 Pounds, so I consider myself lucky. I'm getting back on the horse today though, tracking my containers and i will try a workout…

@dkwi04 - amazing results!!! Great work!

Hey guys! So I'm a little over a week into insanity. I'm still trying to do 21DF food, but I've also been traveling, so I'm just eyeing things. But I had a HUGE NSV last night and I had to share. I had bought an "aspiration dress" a few months ago way before 21DF, and my venture into beach body programs. It was way too…

The nutrition plan focuses not only on the equivalent calories, but on the quality and balance of calories (macros) that you're eating. If you're tracking all of that through mfp, I would say fine, but i definitely wasn't, so it was essential to my success overall.

I was just thinking this - those are the same people who say that Beach Body "is a fad" and "doesn't work" because they gain weight back after, or don't lose a million pounds during. They just aren't ready. To a certain extent I'm not either!!! But what did I do on day 22? I started insanity ;)

Incredible! Great job!

On the flip side, I loved the plates, and I'll definitely do it on off days for insanity. but i just had a baby, so seeing how much better I'm getting at all of the ab stuff is really encouraging to me. My stomach area is where I need the most work!

I wouldn't survive extreme. I loved the flexibility of wine.

@SatiaRenee - your family is the bomb.com! They are so supportive!

I'm done! Day 21 was yesterday, and i did all my measurements this morning. When all was said and done, I lost six pounds and 4 total inches! I lost 1.25 inches on my chest (went down a bra size!) And 2.25 inches on my waist, and a half inch on my arms! I didn't measure my back (the circumference under my breasts), but…

Two words: imperfect progress. DO NOT beat yourself up for this. I'm on day 17, and i totally fell off the wagon today food wise because my dad was over and brought amazing cheese and sausage. But I'm going to do my workout tonight and get back to it tomorrow. Oh, and my day 7 was a total cheat because my girls from…

Changing your mind is essential to changing your body - looks like you've got step one in the bag! Good luck on your journey!

Omg - i can't stand the strawberry. I have a ton left, and only one chocolate! I will switch to eggs before I drink another strawberry. @dkwi04 I just put day 13 in the books!!! Tomorrow is yoga fix. As of today I've lost 5 pounds and i fit into all my pants! (I'm not quite 8.5 months post partum) i still have a long way…

i totally felt thinner - i lost 2 pounds of water weight instantly from not eating processed foods with a lot of sodium. i knew it wasn't fat pounds, but i felt amazing none-the-less and it helped me to get through those first few days. these DVDs are the real deal - Jillian's got nothing on Autumn! ;) as a side note, i…

I got it as an extra when I ordered the challenge packet through my coach. I don't have Barre legs though - not sure how you get that one...

I've been following the 21DF guidelines...and not logging my food for the most part.

FABULOUS RESULTS!!! Today is day 12 for me, and if I get those results I will be ecstatic. And I'm 35, and NOT modifying, and i'm losing very slowly. We'll see!!!

Sounds pretty yummy!

i logged yesterday just to see if the calories were accurate - mine were dead on! i was so surprised for some reason. my number of containers are for the 1600-1700 calorie mark, and my calories ended up being 1648 - dead on for my calculation. i'm on day 5, and i'm steadily losing, so i didn't really think about logging…

excellent advice! thanks!

BTW - thanks for your videos and such - i hope that your fix is going well! it sounds like you're working it like a boss!!

thanks! i decided to wait and start when i get home on thursday. that way, i'll have the first 17 days at home before i have to go away again. i have all of my meals planned (all three weeks in an excel worksheet!) as of last night, and i'm going to put in a grocery order today so that everything is delivered thursday…

Wow! What an incredible difference! Great job! Be kind to yourself - you've come such a long way, and you've made so many great changes in your life. You WILL continue on your journey.

i got it!!! looks like a great app. i just ordered my challenge set of 21 day fix yesterday. i'm hoping it will be here by friday so that i can plan everything to start next week. i'm traveling M-W, so it'll definitely be a challenge to say the least!

we don't know what we are having yet, but for a girl i've ALWAYS wanted Avelina (named after my great grandmother, think the song "Ave Maria" and Lena), but my husband who is not hispanic thinks he can't handle a name he can't pronounce (although he LOVES Spanish and encourages our son to speak it as much as…

Hey Everyone! I'm due August 1st with my second. I'm a little paranoid about this one, b/c I lost a pregnancy in June - I just want to be as healthy as i can - i have a tendency to treat my body like a garbage disposal with my pregnancies (i gained 60 POUNDS with my first), so i thought joining this forum would be a good…

hey! i'm new to this board, but have you tried putting Chia seeds in your food? they are a great source of protein, as well as fiber and would up your intake without upping bulk, and may help keep the snacky feeling at bay. i like putting mine in things like oatmeal and shakes in lieu of protein powder. i also just made a…

great job!!! keep up the great work! :)

that sounds pretty yummy! thanks :)

Thanks everyone!!! the one i use takes up about half my daily intake!!! i'll check out your posts and try some! Have a grea day!
