21 Day Fix Breakfast

Today I started my second round with the 21 Day Fix. This is a program that has the nutrition and the workouts packed into one. I do my own workouts, however, I LOVE it for the nutrition part of it. It really takes the guess work out of what to eat.  It's a color coded container system and (based off your goals) you follow a chart of how many of each container you get a day. For example I am allowed the following:

Green (veggies)- 3
Purple (fruit)- 2
Red (protein)- 4
Yellow (grains)- 2
Blue (Fats)- 1
Orange (dressings)- 1
teaspoons (I use it for PB)-2

Now, if you see the containers you might not think it's enough food. It IS enough though. In fact, some people (me included sometimes) think it's too much food lol. The picture below is my breakfast from this morning. I ate within an hour of waking up (HUGE, so PLEASE do this and get your metabolism started) and made sure to have some protein. I'm doing my workout in about an hour and will have my Shakeology within 90 minutes post workout.

  1. I thought a red was 2 large eggs? So wouldn't this be 1/2 red? Just trying to figure out how much food I actually get.

  2. Yes,you get two eggs (so 4 halves) per red container 🙂
