21 Day Fix - 3 Day Quick Fix with Meal Plan

As if the 21 Day Fix program isn't awesome enough on its own, they went and added a 3 Day Quick Fix at the end!! 

This 3 day quick fix is something you would use if maybe you want to drop a few pounds for an upcoming wedding. Maybe you want to make a splash at the beach this weekend. Or maybe you need a reboot to stop a few bad nutritional habits. This is not something you want to do for any longer than three days, but if done occasionally, it's a great way to lose a little weight fast.

You can definitely use this at any time as I mentioned above and also at the end of each round of the 21 Day Fix so you can get a boost on the results for the next round! It can be pretty challenging, so be ready for it. And don't worry! If this is too restrictive for you then skip it! You will still get AMAZING results just by following the program as it is designed!!

So here are the deets...

*Space your meals approximately two hours apart

*Steamed veggie options recommended are broccoli, asparagus, green beans, zucchini, cucumbers, or bell peppers

*Seasonings allowed are lemon and lime juice, vinegars, and spices. NO SALT!!

*Oatmeal can be flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg or ONE packet (1/2 tsp) of Stevia

*Drink at least one gallon of water a day. Spread it out as much as possible, starting with a glass when you first wake up. It will help you feel full while it flushes toxins from your system

*Drink the extra-virgin coconut oil with meals. To prepare it, place the desired amount into a microwave save bowl and zap it for 10 to 15 seconds

*Coffee or tea is okay to drink, but avoid creamers and sweeteners - except stevia. Again, you can use one packet or 1/2 teaspoon

*Again, no need to alter your workouts. The 3 Day Quick Fix can be used anytime. It is also recommended using it during the last three days - and ONLY THREE DAYS for maximum results!

Since I'm doing this with my hubby I cooked up a big batch of steel cut oats, chicken, turkey and veggies and we portioned them out into tupperware containers for each day. For this part of the program especially I feel its super important to get the meal prep done ahead of time. You may be feeling a little hungry, a little busy etc and just want to grab an apple or handful of crackers but this is GAME TIME!! It's SO important to stay on track....it's ONLY three days!

Here is the MEAL PLAN... there is no need to adjust your workouts - or the rest of your life, for that matter. Just follow this simple eating plan for three days by eating these foods, measuring them out using the corresponding containers. You will ONLY use the yellow, green and red containers for the next three days!
