21 Day Fix - Day 3

Operation 50 Day 3

It is windy, cool but sunny today.

I had a lie in this morning..relaxing. I got out of bed at around 10.30am-ish, I didn't take much notice of the time, but anyway, after I got sorted I came down stairs and I had breakfast:

Breakfast
Cereal = 1 yellow
Yogurt = 1 red

I then caught up with emails etc. I then sorted laundry out and have put a load on to wash. The dishwasher is also going.
I have just taken some bread buns out of the freezer for a light lunch for my family, they rather like bacon buns so that is what I am going to make for them. I'm not sure yet what I am having, I need to decide, maybe a feta salad, I will update here.

I completed my exercise yesterday evening and tonight it is, Lower Fix. My body is aching so much but I am not giving up on this, I really need a positive boost to lose a significant amount of this weight, I need to get to goal before I hit 50 years old in 7 months...OH MY!

I am now going to get some area's cleaned in my kitchen, clean on the tops of my cupboards, skirting boards, display cabinet etc.

*UPDATE*

I got 2 loads of laundry washed, dried and put away, I made meals and packed lunch for hubby tomorrow and I managed to get half of my cupboard tops done, I will have to finish them tomorrow...I just don't know where the time goes.

I done my Lower Fix exercise this afternoon :)

Here is the rest of my food:

Snack
Shake = 1 Yellow and
1 Red.

Lunch
1 Wholemeal slice of bread = 1 Yellow
1 Bacon Medallion = 1 Red (I am counting it as 1 Red)
1 Apple = 1 Purple

Snack
Chocolate Raisins = 1 Orange
I can have two treats per week but I have to give it a yellow container that day.

Dinner
Chicken = 1 Red
Vegetables = 3 Green
Pineapple = 1 Purple

Green = 3
Purple = 2
Red = 4
Yellow = 3
Blue = 0
Orange = 1
Tsp = 2
Water = 7

Day three completed :)

Operation 50 - 21 Day Fix

I have been looking into doing the 21 Day Fix programme for a few weeks now. This states that I could lose up to 15lbs in 21 days which is over a stone in weight, and to be honest I could do with a very big kick up the bum so this is what I have decided to do for 21 days. I am of course going to go back to following Weight Watchers but at the moment I just need a good ole kick up the backside and get myself shifted to exercise.

I started this yesterday and of course I did do the exercise for the day and I have to say that I have been in such discomfort since, I must be incredibly unfit and the fact that these exercises really work the body.


I ordered the Ultimate pack. I was under the impression that the Ultimate pack would include the following:

Lunch bag
Exercise band
Larger tub
DVD - Barre Legs and Flat Abs Fix each 30 minutes

But it doesn't! So beware all you in the UK, if you order the Ultimate pack all you will receive extra is the DVD for the extra £20 which in my opinion £20 is a tad pricey for a 1 hour exercise DVD.

I wasn't able to eat all my tubs of food yesterday and I don't think I am going to manage it today either.
The tubs look quite small but believe me, it is a lot of food on the plate.
This programme is based around clean eating and this is what I need instead of being in the habit of snacking and missing meals because I have spent too many points on snacking so I am thinking that this is going to help me form healthier habits.

Today:

Wholegrain cereal = 1 Yellow
Natural plain yogurt = 1 Red

1 Wholemeal slice of bread, toasted = 1 Yellow
2 Eggs, dry fried = 1 Red
Cheese = 1 Blue

Butterfly chicken = 1 Red
Roast Veg = 2 Green
Wholewheat Pasta, cooked = 1 Yellow

Fruit = 2 Purple
Shake = 1 Red
2 tsp PB2 = 2tsp
Almond Milk = 1 Yellow
2tsp Peanut Butter = 2tsp

My Daily allowance is:

Green = 5 - Vegetables
Purple = 3 - Fruit
Red = 5 - Meat and Fish
Yellow = 4 - carbohydrates
Blue = 1 Cheese, Nuts
Orange = 1 - Nuts, Seeds and 21 day dressings
Tsp = 5 - Oils and Nut butters

These are the portions and quantities that I am allowed to eat each day

Yesterday's exercise was Total Body Cardio Fix
Today's exercise is Upper Fix - I will do this tonight.

I also done my body measurements yesterday.

Back tomorrow :)
