Beachbody 21 Day Fix Round #3

November 18, 2015 by Bekah Leave a Comment

This week I started my third 21 Day Fix Challenge.  It’s part of the Hitting It Hard 30 Day Challenge.

So far the long term habits I’ve acquired are:

  • Hydration.  It’s kind of automatic now.  I easily down 64-80 oz liquid every day and before that seemed impossible.
  • Work-outs.  This has been an “off-week” but I usually workout 5- 6 days a week.  30 minutes is required for the program but I usually go an hour or more.  I take 1-2 Zumba classes a week and those are an hour long.  On other days I prefer to walk on the treadmill and do a slower and steadier workout which means it takes longer.
  • Conscious eating.  Whether it’s healthy or not, I’m more aware of what I’m eating.  I don’t do it mindlessly, ever.  If I’m going to eat those chips, I put them in a bowl so I know how much I’m eating.  I make simple healthier alternatives that in reality make a huge difference in my fat, calorie, and sugar intake.

Results:

Since the beginning of Septembers I have felt a bit more energy.  My chronic dry eye doesn’t seem to be as bad and my digestion is way better.  I think hydration is a huge factor in that.  I also feel good about exercising.  It can be hard at times and the motivation isn’t always there.  Sometimes I have a couple days where I lose track but I just get back on the horse and keep going.  I’ve never done that before and I feel a sense of accomplishment.  No I’m not losing weight super-fast, but I don’t want to.  I’m not dieting, I’m making long-term changes.

What I hope to accomplish this round:

  • I want to step up my work-outs.  I want to do more jogging on the treadmill and use a steeper incline.  I want to do more toning and burning more calories per workout.  I’ve also started more ab exercises that I hope will make a visible difference in the next 3 weeks.
  • Be more consistent in drinking Shakeology.  I figured out something about myself.  I’m not a “shake person.”  I don’t crave shakes or smoothies of any kind.  Previously, if I would order one, it would be in the middle of the summer and I would usually share with my husband and/or kids. I like a few sips and I’m done.  I guess it’s just a personal preference.  When I’m eating, I prefer to bite into something solid.  Oh well!  Shakeology is good for me and I just need to get in the habit of drinking it, just as I did with hydration.
