Getting in Shape with the 21 Day Fix Extreme

When I want a snack, instead of reaching for junk food or crackers, I remember I need more fruits and veggies and grab peppers or strawberries instead. Rather than getting frustrated reading labels and counting calories, we are actually redefining the way we eat. We are able to get used to better portion sizes and understand how much more fruits and veggies (and less carbs and other categories) we should be eating. And I wrote Peter’s and my allotted number of containers on a whiteboard so we could keep track of how much we have eaten and how much we could eat each day. I used a permanent marker to label each container so I wouldn’t have to remember which is which. Then simply use the containers to keep your portion sizes in check. You start by using the book to determine your caloric need (whether you want to lose weight or just build muscle) then look on the chart to determine how many servings of each food group you should eat. The basic idea is portion sizes and the right amount of each food group. So she made the eating healthy part easy, while the getting fit part pushes you to your limits in just 30 minutes and can be done right at home.Įating Healthy with the 21 Day Fix Extreme Autumn Calabrese, the trainer, is a mom herself and understands how hard it really is to be a supermom.
