FAQs
1. You said I can still have chocolate and wine? Tell me more!
Yes, that’s right you can still indulge a little while on the 21 Day Fix. You can have a 4oz glass of wine up to three times a week. Keep in mind that each 4oz portion replaces one of your yellow containers for the day. The same substitution goes for chocolate as well. However, don’t think you get to fill your entire yellow container with chocolate chips. About one spoon full of chocolate chips can be substituted for a yellow container. Remember, only three times a week. Everything in moderation.
2. How do I mix my food containers?
If possible, first measure foods in the appropriate containers before mixing. Used the mixed foods/container counts listed on page 71 as a reference. This also provides container counts for popular restaurant items, so don’t feel like you can’t enjoy a night out while following the 21 Day Fix.
3. Is the eating plan vegan and/or vegetarian friendly?
Yes! Vegetarians still have tons of protein options with items such as eggs, Greek yogurt, ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, and Shakeology all counting as red containers. As for vegans there is now a separate food list just for you! If you are a vegan let me know and I will send you the vegan guidelines.
4. What equipment do I need?
You only really need two sets of weights (one light, one heavy) or a resistance band. An exercise mat of some sort it recommended, but not necessary. For women I recommend light weights 5-7lbs and a heavy set 8-12lbs. For men, light weights 7-10lbs and a heavy set of 10-20lbs. Keep in mind that these are only recommendations and you should do what feels right to you. When I started the program I was using 5lbs for my light now I use 7lbs.
5. What the heck is Shakeology?
It is a whole foods, nutrient dense, protein shake with over 70 superfood ingredients. You can use it to replace a meal or enjoy it as one of your snacks, giving your body an incredible blend of vitamins and minerals. There are a ton of difference recipes so you don't have to worry about drinking the same thing every day. Check out my blog post for a more detailed look at Shakeology.
