WIAW # 106 – 21 Day Fix Extreme C2C

{Linking up with Jenn for What I Ate Wednesday}

WHAT-I-ATE-WEDNESDAY-NEW-BUTTON-PEAS-AND-CRAYONS (2)

Two posts in one day and on my birthday none-the-less. I guess I just have so much to share with you, I couldn’t stay away.

Last Monday I started another round of 21 Day Fix Extreme, but this time I decided to follow the countdown to completion plan or as I call it the countdown to Vegas plan. Before starting this high protein meal plan I was nervous, I wasn’t sure I would be able to do it happily (I vow to never follow a diet that makes me miserable again.). I am not going to lie the first day was a little difficult, but now it is becoming second nature and I am feeling great. I am a week and a half in and my muscle definition is definitely getting more defined.

I did make a few tweaks to the countdown to competition Vegas (C2C) plan.

  1. On C2C days I am allowed 3 green containers (veggies), but I simply can’t eat that many in one day and I was really missing my fruit, so I switched one green container for one red (an apple or half a banana).
  2. I love eating my salads with dressing so I traded one tsp. with a blue container (half this blue container goes to salad dressing and the other half goes to nuts).

Here is a sample of one of my Countdown to Competition Days:

Meal 1

I enjoyed one of my favorites, pumpkin protein pancakes. An entire recipe is only 1.5 red and 1 yellow and it is so filling. I can’t eat it all in one sitting.

Meal 2

Eggs whites with chicken sausage. This has become a favorite of mine and so satisfying. When I first started the 21 Day Fix Extreme plan back in February I never thought I would be able to give up my toast with egg whites and I did. Then I started eating my egg whites with sweet potatoes and that was delicious, but I gave that up on C2C days and now I am in love with my egg whites and sausage. See, the way we eat becomes a habit, the first step is simply making a change and the rest will follow. Now, I am not saying sweet potatoes are bad, but on C2C days I am only allowed 1 yellow container (carbs) so I choose to eat it at breakfast.

Meal 3

I was hungry again so I heated up a seasoned chicken breast. Another thing I learned was that when I get hungry I simply need to have easy sources of protein available. This way I won’t try to grab something unhealthy.

Meal 4

Turkey, almond, and walnut salad. Sorry, no picture. I also enjoyed a glass of my favorite green smoothie, I almost forgot to take this picture, but caught it right before the glass was empty.

Meal 5

Two meatloaf muffins. These are delicious. I top them with a little ketchup and mustard and I feel as though I am eating a hamburger.

After school I took my girls to the pool and we had a blast. This was our first time swimming this year and it was a success. I was a little nervous before going, but it turned out great and I can’t wait for more days at the pool.

Meal 6

Once we arrived home from the pool we were all exhausted and starving so we made homemade naan pizzas. I planned on making me something else, but was simply too tired, so I decided to join my girls in the pizza eating and it was delicious. By doing so this meant I was eating one more yellow container (carb) then allowed on C2C days, but you know what I knew this wasn’t the end of the world and it was delicious. I paired it with some green beans and carrots (no almonds).
