Determine Your Calorie Bracket
When doing the 21 Day Fix, you'll first want to determine which calorie bracket you fall into. Your bracket takes into consideration your current weight as well as your goal weight. The various 21 Day Fix brackets are as follows:
- Plan A: 1200-1499 Calories
- Plan B: 1500-1799 Calories
- Plan C: 1800-2099 Calories
- Plan D: 2100-2299 Calories
Once you've got your target bracket, you'll know how many containers of each color you get within the Portion Fix System and you can start working on creating your meal plan.
21 Day Fix Approved Foods List
The foods that are “21 Day Fix Approved” are listed in the program materials you received when you purchased the program or your Beachbody on Demand subscription. If you lost them, no worries – they're available as a .pdf download on Beachbody on Demand (BOD) under the 21 Day Fix “program materials”. If you don't have a BOD subscription, you can get a Free 2-week Beachbody on Demand Trial. In general, nutrient-dense fruits, veggies, and unprocessed foods are on the list. When going through the 21 Day Fix, you'll want to cut back or eliminate white, processed flour products like bread and pasta (whole grain is OK) as well as refined sugars.
Tip: Create your own 21 Day Fix Approved Clean Eating Foods Chart. Your own personal chart contains food choices that you personally like to eat instead of referring to the much larger general foods list. Also, make sure you know that when using the 21 Day Fix foods list, the foods at the top of the list are the best, most nutritionally dense choices.
21 Day Fix Breakfast Ideas
When on the 21 Day Fix program, it's super-important to start the day by fueling your body properly. Also, make sure you drink 12-16 ounces of water upon waking, as sleep can be dehydrating. Water does so much more for you – flushes away toxins, regulates body temperature and boosts the appearance of your skin. Here are some delicious 21 Day Fix breakfast ideas:
