Today was my first day with the 21 Day Fix. Let me tell you, it is no joke! My legs were on fire even before half the workout! But I stayed strong, 'cause I know something was right here! I can now see how people are getting these amazing results in such short time and I just can't wait to see mine! I currently use 8 lbs dumbbells, but if this is your first time ever working out, I highly suggest you start off with at least 5 lbs max and work your way up. Even with 8 lbs, it was getting difficult for me. Don't hesitate if you feel the need to modify your moves, even I who have done a few programs was having a hard time. Also, if you feel the need to press pause for a few more seconds, do so and catch your breath, drink some water.
As far as the meal plan, I am trying to add variety throughout the week. For breakfast, Shakeology all the time. Saves me a lot of time and I don't have to try and figure out what to have for breakfast every time, yet I can still play with it and do different flavors every day to spice it up. For a snack, I had spinach and kale leaves (green container) and hummus spread (blue container). Here is a picture of some groceries I did the day before to start me off on the right foot.
Also, I am keeping track of my water intake. I found this simple water bottle at Target for under 2 bucks that measures in all forms of volume. PERFECT!
This is the beginning of forming healthier habits!
