21 Day Fix!
It's so easy! It's only 3 weeks! It's only 30 minutes! We can DO this!!!
AND we can look like Autumn Cabrese in NO time! Let's GO!!!
HOLD IT!
There's a few "pre-planning" things you need to do first to make sure that your 3 weeks are a TRUE success!
1. SCHEDULE YOUR WORKOUT: Put in on your calendar, set your phone alarm, bribe your kids with movies and money- whatever you need to do, get it on your schedule and DON'T CANCEL on yourself! You'd never cancel a meeting with your boss, sooooo....... GET IT DONE!
2. EAT, EAT, REPEAT: You think - hmm...21 days worth of meal plans is so overwhelming! AH! Here's a little trick: It's 3 weeks. Figure out about 3-4 lunch (or breakfast) meals total, 4-5 dinner meals total, and just eat them again! For example: I usually eat fruit with a small bit of protein for breakfast, Shakeology for lunch, so all I have to plan for my entire 3 weeks is about 4 dinner meals, and have snacks in the fridge, and I'm DONE. DONE, I say!
3. SPEAKING OF SHAKEOLOGY: If you aren't drinking it, START NOW! This is an easy way to get your dense nutrition in! If you're not a breakfast person, you need to become one, and the easiest way is to grab a shake on your way out the door in the morning. I personally struggle with lunches...I don't have time to pack a lunch for work, and at home, I just graze on whatever the kids are eating. Not anymore! During work months, I mix up my Shakeology drink the night before and grab it on my way out the door the next morning. During the summertime, I put a few things of crushed ice in my Shakeo cup, add almond milk and my powder, shake, shake, shake, and head back out to to the pool. WINNING!!
4. ACCOUNTABILITY: Join a challenge group (hello - PRIZES!), grab some friends (Get your meanest friends who will call you at 11pm at night and MAKE you workout if you haven't done it already - the ones who will SHAME you if you eat the donut at work. You know the people I'm talking about!) You can't do this alone! (I mean, you can, I guess, but what fun is that??)
5. JUNK FOOD - BE GONE!: Cleaning time! Go through your cupboards and your fridge - lock away (or throw out, if you're super hard core!) anything that will tempt you and that goes against your fitness goals. And another tip - STOP buying crap food! Don't buy it for your spouse or your kids - they don't need it either!! Remember - you're setting an example for your kiddos - if you won't eat it, why would you give it to them?? (PS - getting rid of the junk food is not an open invite for eating all you can before you start your diet!)
6. KISS: No - not literally - thought it DOES burn calories! I mean Keep It Simple, Stupid!! Don't get overwhelmed with the cute colorful boxes and the workouts, and the schedule, and the expectations - AH! Keep your meal planning as simple as possible, get your workouts in, DRINK WATER, and relax! If you mess up, get back at it! Don't give up - you're too awesome for that!!!

Oh - two more thoughts: WATER is your friend - both drinking, and soaking in!
Also - those cute little containers - yeah - make sure you can put the lid on. If you can't, it's too full :)
