As you may know, I have just completed the BEACHBODY 21 Day Fix. In an effort to be a little healthier, my sister in law and I decided to start off by doing "The Fix." I am so glad I did it with her because I don't think I would have done it on my own.
As a whole I am pretty happy with the fix. The workouts were my favorite part. I didn't know how sweaty and tired I could get just by working out in my living room! The nutrition plan was not my favorite part. I have never eaten quite so much meat, eggs, and vegetables. I will admit that I needed to add on extra food on days when I was just too hungry! (Still sticking to items in the nutrition plan).
I kept seeing pictures and results on instagram or pinterest of people who lost X amount of weight or had incredible before and after photos. The first week of the fix I lost about 5 pounds which I thought was pretty incredible. But by the end, I had pretty much gained it back. So, no miraculous results for me. However, I found that I had more energy during the day and I was definitely getting stronger from the work outs.
So, what did I gain from doing the fix?
I was never meant to be-and will never be a size 0, and that is JUST FINE WITH ME! But, I do have a better sense of how much I should be eating and what foods I should be eating more of and less of. That is something that I learned and will try to be better about, for sure! Also, I now have awesome 30 minute home work outs which I hope to keep doing!
You can call it a failure, a success, or whatever you want. As for me, I'm just perfectly content!
