21 Day Fix The food plan is less rigid and easier to adapt to than the one suggested in 21 Day Fix Extreme. And in July, beachbody is coming out with a cookbook with 21 Day Fix approved recipes so, when you start feeling comfortable with the containers and want to experiment some more, you can grab the cookbook and have…

@Clo747 That was precisely my problem. I would get bored doing the same workout day in and day out. And then when I was supposed to move onto the next level/phase but it was too hard for me, the thought of doing more of the workout I'd already been doing . . . ugh. I figure, even if that happens with BR, I can keep going…

Ooooh that looks sooo good @dkwi04 I need to try this one. Thank you!

@deltayork I definitely eat more fruits than I did before. And eat more protein (and much less cheese . . . I miss my cheese!).

@walkdmc I am the opposite. I was walking a lot, 3-5 miles a day, and not losing any weight. Nothing. Nada. I even gained weight. On days when I couldn't walk because of the weather or whatever, I used walking DVDs. Still nothing. So I switched it up. I used the bike. And walked. Biked 7 miles. Walked 2-3 miles. Nothing.…

I make in batches and freeze too. I mentioned in another thread about making turkey meatballs and freezing them. Brown rice and quinoa are also perfect. I divide everything into portions before tossing them into the freezer. It just makes things easier to grab when I need it. You can also grill more chicken and such than…

You now, we could also always put OT in the subject to proclaim that it is Off Topic. I think that would be ideal. Because yeah, I would hate to see people migrate away from this group but I also don't want new members to be lost in OT threads. You all are awesome! Super awesome even! @walkdmc I'm in week 3 of Slim in 6…

Bah Humbug Not sure whether it was the workout or the insomnia but I am done. All day yesterday we tried to get the second DVD in Slim in 6 to work. We tried it in an external DVD player, in an old laptop, in my husband's laptop, in one DVD player, in another DVD player and . . . it didn't want to work anywhere. It would…

My husband is diabetic so ever since his diagnosis we've been meal planning. Mostly dinners because he pretty much has the same thing for breakfast and lunch. As for me, I pretty much plan my meals around leftovers. Like right now there's some leftover chili and grilled chicken in the refrigerator so I'll probably have one…

It's amazing how losing weight also makes me look less blurry.

There is a lot of great support on IG but I find that the support I get here in this group is far better.

Weekly Weigh-In Lost 2 lbs this week. I don't know if it's because I'm doing 8 Hour Abs Diet, Slim in 6, or 21 Day Fix Extreme or a combination of the three but I'll take it. This morning, I tried on a pair of jeans that just a few weeks ago I couldn't pull up over my thighs and I was able to button them up. No, I can't…

Thank you everyone for the . . . well, really . . . just thank you. It's hard to believe I'm finally seeing results. I mean, I've been trying to lose weight since 2008 when I finally stopped using my walker. I tried Weight Watchers. My doctor put me on phentermine and wanted me to try HCG. I even consulted with a…

@TheFo1dOut I think Cardio Fix is cruel any day of the week. If you do doubles, you do Cardio Fix on Tuesday too. Trust me. Whatever day of the week it falls on, it's just cruel! Not as cruel as Dirty 30 Extreme though. WTH was that? Ugh. And I thought Cardio Fix Extreme was tough. BTW, my ankle is not happy today so I'm…

Gotta Brag on Rob As most of you know, he's doing P90 but he's doing it in his own way. He sometimes has to work LOOOOONG hours with short nights in between. (For instance, he'll be home sometime between 8 & 9 on Saturday, working about 13 hours, and has to be up at 4am on Sunday.) Plus, his work has him on his feet and…

I am going to get Rob to look for Flat Out because I really love pizza and our attempts at cauliflower crust have not really fulfilled that desire for me.

Okay. I think it sounds like we should create a new group. I mean, I'm definitely planning on doing 21DF & 21DFX as part of my daily routine often but right now it's looking like I won't be doing it sometime in July and/or August at all, although I'll still be following the meal plans. (And OMG, @jpkrueger YES! I hear a…

https://instagram.com/p/3zen2tBB1X/ Still following the menu given to me by my coach and . . . apparently Jorge Cruise, #1 bestselling author, liked my image. How cool is that? B: eggs with turkey, pepper, onion, and salsa S: Greek yogurt with a dash of cinnamon and berries L: leftover turkey chili D: rice and bean "taco"…

I loooove the vinaigrette dressings in the book. I would recommend making 1 but only half to see if you like it. I know what you mean about not having the resources but if you look at the recipes, once you've made one, you will have some of the ingredients you need for another. And another. Also, go on Pinterest. A lot of…

@TheFo1dOut I see many coaches and such use dressings from Trader Joe's. So long as the dressing is organic and doesn't have any sugar/salt added, you are fine. Read the labels and go from there. You might also consider going to your local farmer's market and seeing if you can find some organic, local made/grown dressings…

Follow your doctor's recommendation. He went to medical school and is trained to make recommendations. What I take is contingent on my blood work results and had changed over time and as I age.

I have an overweight friend and we used to meet for coffee which meant she would get herself a large bagel slathered in cream cheese or a huge muffin. One day I suggested we go for a walk instead and now I have a walking buddy. Every Saturday, give or take our occasional conflict in schedules and such, we go for a 2-3…

Nope. Not a coach. Not even remotely interested in becoming one, believe it or not. Yes, the discount is tempting but I know my strengths and I've tried to sell things in the past and utterly failed. Ended up spending more money than I made. Twice with two different things. It's just not a skill I have. So I'm willing to…

Well, tell your husband he can come hang out here with me and my husband our dogs. We can do random beachbody workouts and pretend we're at summit. Let's see; we have the following: 21 Day Fix 21 Day Fix Extreme Slim in 6 PiYo T25 Power 90 P90 P90X and thanks to some bonus workouts Thin Thighs with Debbie Siebers Cardio…

@dkwi04 Congrats! You and I both seemed to hit a plateau for a while there so it's nice to see you breaking through. I think my weekly weigh-in is going to be a good one. We'll see how it goes. Morning Workout 21 Day Fix Extreme: W1/D4: Lower Body Fix Extreme My resistance cord needs some repair (because the D ring into…

I won't be going even though it's not too far from where I am (Atlanta, GA) because I have cervical vertigo. Visual and audio stimulation can trigger me so you can imagine how "well" I'd do at summit, with all of the crowds of people and the loud music and such. It sounds like it would be fun but for me it would be utterly…

I'm wondering if there is or should be a group for people doing T25 here on MFP. I have the DVDs but don't plan on starting it anytime soon (leaving on vacation in a few weeks and don't want to start a new program just before I go away). I wish MFP had the option to search for groups and I know that the 21 Day Fix group I…

I have T25 but don't plan on starting it yet because I'm about to go away on vacation and didn't want to start a new program until after I return. I have watched the DVDs, though, to see what the workouts look like and I definitely think it's gong to be fun. I love the format and especially that there is someone modifying…

I want one of those zoodle things.

@jpkrueger It is a good thing she's cute because there are times I just want to crush her. The same is true for Chalene Johnson. And sure, Chalene, I can do more PiYo push-ups . . . I can't wait. Grrrrrr . . . Today I was just grateful Autumn didn't have a bonus round. Seriously. I sank into child's pose and was sooooo…
