21 Day Fix

Here we are on the end of Day 16 of 21 Day Fix!! I am so excited about the results we are getting from this program! My husband refuses to get on a scale until the end, but I can see his hard work paying off and the changes in his physique (what a fun word) in just this short time. I wanted to take a minute and share a few of the things we've enjoyed on our meal plans so far.

Saute edamame in EVOO, some minced garlic and crushed red pepper (1 green). Serve with a baked sweet potato (1 yellow), dusted with cinnamon and a grilled pork loin. I marinated the pork loin in some OJ, EVOO, and McCormick's Gourmet Bourbon Spiced Pork seasoning (1 red). 

This is one of my favorite morning snacks. Toasted Bagel Thin (1 yellow), 1 70 cal Greek Yogurt (1 red), and a mix of strawberries and blueberries (1 purple). 

Loved this salad of spinach, strawberries, blueberries, feta and shredded rotisserie chicken. 1 Green, 1 Purple, 1 Red, and 1/2 blue. Dressed with dark chocolate balsamic and EVOO (1 tsp). 

Chicken tostadas were a hit with my kids! Shredded rotisserie chicken (1/2 red) mixed with store bought pico de gallo (1/2 green), topped on a tostado (1 yellow) and sprinkled with 1/2 blue of shredded cheese. Bake at 350 for about 15-18 minutes. 

Fish tacos were a big hit. Season tilapia with cilantro, lime juice, sea salt, pepper, cumin, paprika. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes. Mix broccoli slaw with pico de gallo, lime juice, and 1/2 cup non fat Greek yogurt. Crumble baked fish and serve on warmed corn tortillas with 1/2 green container of slaw and fresh avocado (1/2 blue) and shredded cheese (1/2 blue). These are per taco, 2 tacos per serving. You may have to adjust the avocado and cheese based on your container allowance. Mash the avocado and spread on the tortilla to make it go further. 

Another favorite, roasted asparagus, wild rice and grilled venison backstrap. Sprinkle asparagus (1 green) with garlic powder, pepper, Worcestershire, and Parmesan (1/2 blue). 1 Yellow of Wild Rice. Marinate backstrap in Wine Rub (from Pepper Palace) and Worcestershire. Grill on Med/Hi heat for 5-6 minutes per side, until medium rare (anything longer will dry the meat out and lose the flavor and tenderness that venison offers). Allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Slice into 1/4 inch strips for serving. 

Venison Chili. 1 lb of ground venison, 1 can of kidney beans (I pureed them because my kids do not like beans....or so they think), 1 onion, 1 bell pepper, 1 or 2 tsp minced garlic, 1 can of low sodium tomato sauce, 1 can low sodium tomato paste, 1 package Mrs. Dash (no salt) chili seasoning. Serve with dollop of Greek yogurt and shredded cheese. 

I can't believe we've been able to eat food this amazing (and this is just a few of the things we've had on our menu), and still lose weight. 5 meals a day, 30 minutes of workouts each day....and it simply works. Eating real food, giving our workouts our best effort, and using the support of a challenge group. These are the 3 keys of success to 21 Day Fix. 

I'd love to help you on your journey to reaching your health and fitness goals. This is not about getting skinny....it's about getting strong. And healthy. And happy with yourself. And proud of what you've achieved. Setting goals and reaching them. You have to give yourself permission to succeed and plan for it. It is possible, you can do this!
