Portion Fix | Prep | Day 1

Welcome to our Portion Fix group! We’re here to help each other as we learn how portion control can support better weight-loss success. Whether you’ve used portion-control containers before or you’re new to them, you’re going to learn so much from this program. I know how excited you are to begin your weight-loss journey and get started right away with the containers. However, I’d like you to hold off momentarily on using them because it’s critical we take these first four days to really learn the program before we dive into our 30-day Success Group. I’m a big fan of Shakeology for many reasons, especially to help support healthy weight loss.* If you haven’t already tried it, it’s definitely something to consider. For those considering Shakeology, I suggest you start today so you can begin seeing and feeling the benefits right away.

I’d love to start with some questions that help us get to know each other, and help me provide you with the best support I can. This is a safe space, and I encourage you to post your answers in the comments below.

  1. Why are you excited for Portion Fix?
  2. What diets or weight-loss programs have you tried in the past?
  3. What’s been your biggest weight-loss struggle?
  4. How are you feeling about starting?
  5. How can we best support you to help you reach your goals?
  6. Are you currently exercising, or are you thinking about adding workouts like 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix EXTREME Real Time, which are included as a bonus to this program? If not, that’s OK.
  7. If so, what are your thoughts on adding in exercise?
  8. Are you drinking Shakeology or using any Beachbody Performance supplements?
  9. In addition to answering the questions above, today’s goal is to watch the “Start Here (Foundations of Fix)” video. Keep in mind that you’re just watching and taking in the information—this is after all just the prep!

Also, if you haven’t had a physical lately or have any health or medical concerns, consult your physician before beginning this program.

Tomorrow, I’ll share more about how this Success Group will work. See you then!

Today’s To-Do’s:

  1. Answer the “get to know you” questions.
  2. Watch the first video in Rail 1: “Start Here (Foundations of Fix).” Congratulate yourself for taking this incredible step toward better health!
  3. Also, watch the video by Darin Olien on why Shakeology is great for weight loss.

Portion Fix | Prep | Day 2

Yesterday, we watched the first video of Rail 1. You essentially learned the very basics of Portion Fix. Today will be a day of learning the Foundational Fix pathway of the program and reflecting on why we’re here. Don’t worry, there are only 5 more videos to watch to understand the WHOLE foundational path of the program. Tomorrow we’ll learn about the other pathways and things like FAQs and how to eat out while following the program.

Here are two important things to keep in mind before we jump into today’s work: Ideally, weekends are for shopping and meal prepping, since that’s when most people tend to have spare time. We’ll also have group check-ins on Thursdays and Sundays. More info to come on both.

Now, about today’s learning: Let’s talk about your “WHY.” As Autumn explains, knowledge is power! And while you might be super-motivated on Day 1 of the Success Group, what happens on Day 14 or Day 25 when things can start to feel harder, and your motivation begins to wane? Well, there’s a solution. Let’s establish our deeper truths and talk about how that relates to losing weight. Watch Video 2: “First Steps to Fix.” Pay close attention at around minute 7:30 in the video. In the comments section below, share your why with the group. Remember, we’re here to support each other and keep each other accountable. No judgments! Just support and acceptance.

Finally, watch Video 3: “Find Your Calorie Bracket,” Video 4: “Food Lists,” Video 5: “Freebies & Substitutions,” and Video: 6 “What’s Next.” Tomorrow, we’ll dig in deeper to ensure everyone has a good understanding of the baseline path of Portion Fix—Foundational Fix. Tomorrow we’ll finish learning the complete program by watching Rails 2 and 3 (for a total of 12 videos).

Today’s To-Do’s:

  1. Watch videos 2–6 in Rail 1.
  2. Share your why with the group in the comments below. You can use the My “Why” Worksheet PDF under Video 2: “First Steps to Fix.”

Portion Fix | Prep | Day 3

US

Second to last day of prep—yay! Today we’re going to identify your calorie bracket to determine which Portion Fix plan to follow. Yesterday you should have watched videos 2–6 and learned how to calculate your calorie bracket. If you didn’t—be sure to watch Video 3: “Find Your Calorie Bracket.” For those of you in a pre- or postnatal group, it’s important to consult your physician before you begin Portion Fix. Once you’ve received your physician’s permission, you’ll need to use the specific pre- and postnatal calculations, which can be found in Rail 2: Custom Fix. If you’re vegan or vegetarian, we have specific paths for you too in Rail 2.

Yesterday, you should have also learned about the food lists in Rail 1: Video 4: “Food Lists.” It’s all about what goes into your containers and the foods you’ll want to shop for on grocery days. Hopefully, you also watched and understood Video 5: “Freebies & Substitutions,” because when following the Foundational Fix pathway you do get three treat swaps per week. I recommend watching this video at least a couple times to really understand it.

In addition to Foundational Fix, you can take three other paths through Portion Fix: Timed-Nutrition, Carb-Cycling, and Intermittent Fasting. As Autumn explains in the videos you’ll be watching today, each one plays an important role—especially when you want to switch it up or dial it in. Everyone is different. What works for one person may not work as well for another.

Timed-Nutrition is a step beyond Foundational Fix. Here, the nutrition is more dialed-in and geared toward eating for performance. If you’re exercising, this is where you might want to take Beachbody Performance Energize before your workouts and Recover after your workouts. For newbies or those who haven’t exercised in a while, consider taking Hydrate before your workouts to help combat dehydration.*

*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Carb-Cycling is a short-term path designed to help get your body ready for an upcoming special event. It’s designed to yield more dramatic results in a shorter period of time.

Each path is explained in more detail in part of today’s homework, watching Rail 2: Video 7: “Timed Nutrition,” Video 8: “Carb-Cycling,” and Video 9: “Intermittent Fasting.” Watch each video so you understand how—and when—these paths can work for you.

You’ll also be watching the 6 videos in Rail 3: A Fix for Everything, so we can begin the actual program tomorrow!

One thing a lot of you have been asking about is whether you have to exercise while doing Portion Fix. It’s not mandatory, but I highly recommend it. Adding exercise to your day can help boost your weight-loss success. Of course weight loss may not be everyone’s goal, especially for those who are pregnant. But exercise, approved by your physician, is beneficial to your health in so many ways! As part of your Portion Fix purchase, you have access to the complete 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix EXTREME workouts, which were shot in real time and updated to help promote even better results. If you’re exercising regularly, I strongly recommend adding Beachbody Performance to your regimen on the days you work out. The Performance Stack, which includes Beachbody Performance Energize pre-workout and Recover post-workout, can be used with most of the intermediate to advanced programs you’ll find on Beachbody On Demand. We’ll learn more about how supplements work in conjunction with Portion Fix when we get to Rail 3: A Fix for Everything.

Tomorrow we start to utilize the containers and meal prep! But first, be sure to watch Video 17: “Meal Planning & Tracking.” Don’t skip it (really don’t skip any of the 12 videos from today). If you haven’t gone food shopping yet, plan to do it today so you’re prepared to get cooking tomorrow! Autumn always says being prepared isn’t half the battle, it IS the battle. It’s crucial to your success that you take the time to set yourself up to crush it!

Today’s To-Do’s:

  1. Understand how to find your calorie bracket, the food lists, and how freebies and substitutions work.
  2. Watch ALL of Rail 2 and Rail 3 (12 total videos).
  3. Understand the different pathways of the program.
  4. Understand how to meal plan & meal prep (and get to it!).
  5. Use the Grocery List Template and Meal Planner PDFs attached to Video 17 if you’d like.
  6. Answer the reflection questions. How’s everyone doing? How was food shopping? Are you prepared to meal prep tomorrow?

You’re on the path to success—take a moment to realize that!

Portion Fix | Prep | Day 4

FINAL day of prep is here. Today you will use all the yummy, healthy food you shopped for yesterday to meal prep for your week—the first week of actually following Portion Fix!

Please share photos of your first week’s meal prep—let’s see what you’ve got!

Also, make sure you’ve got your Shakeology ready to go. It can help set a foundation for healthy eating, so you can make good decisions and feel your best. For maximum benefits, I recommend drinking it every day.†

Check out the Getting Started with Shakeology video to learn how to incorporate it into your daily routine.

Also, super-important: Make sure you take your “before” photos and measurements. Go back to Video 2: “First Steps to Fix” (from Rail 1) and rewatch it. This will ensure you take your measurements correctly. I know this part can be uncomfortable. But believe me, once you start seeing results, you’ll want to refer back to those pictures. REMEMBER, this isn’t a competition against others. And it’s not ALL about weight loss. Each of us has a different body type and build. Our bodies all respond to change within a different time frame. To refresh your memory on how to best prepare for tomorrow, watch the 3-minute video from Rail 1: Video 6: “What’s Next.”

Today’s To-Do’s:

  1. Meal prep
  2. Share a meal prep photo.
  3. Take your “before” photo(s) and measurements!
  4. Once you’re following the programme tomorrow, you will use your Daily Logbook to track your containers. So give that a look over as well (under Programme Materials).

Portion Fix | Week 1 | Day 1

Here we go! The official start of our 30-day Success Group. This is all about putting everything we’ve learned into practice. It’ll be our first day using the containers for tracking all our meals, including snacks. Make sure you drink plenty of water throughout the day and, of course, your Shakeology. For tracking use the Daily Logbook (if you like pen and paper) or the Beachbody On Demand app (under tracking). Have you downloaded the logbook PDF and the app?

The Daily Logbook has other useful guides and prompts to keep you motivated and on-track. After each meal throughout the day, you will track and check in with your Daily Logbook. I recommend you count your container usage as you go, instead of waiting until the end of the day to do it all at the same time.

We’d love to see a container meal from today! Share some pics.

Portion Fix | Week 1 | Day 2

How was yesterday? Did you finish everything in your containers? Did you have food left over?

Remember to make sure you’re eating at regular intervals, about every 2–3 hours. Consistency is key with Portion Fix. Autumn knows the best way to help you get great results.

If you missed containers yesterday, think about how you’ll adjust your plan today and in the days to come. One of the best parts about the containers is they’re portable—you can take them with you when you’re on-the-go. Some of you might have the Beachbody Insulated Tote Bag which is perfect for this. If you don’t have one, reach out to me.

This is also a great time to go over your container plan to understand what you’ll be eating, and when. Remember, your logbook is your daily record of everything, so make sure you stay on top of it.

Share your thoughts with the group!

Portion Fix | Week 1 | Day 3

Let’s talk about mindfulness. You’ll notice in your Daily Logbook that it’s an important part of your Portion Fix journey. As Autumn points out in the videos and logbook, our emotions and daily intentions play a huge role in how we approach food. Let’s share with each other our daily goals and intentions, and how mindfulness is part of our daily container routine.

Now that you’re changing up what you’re eating, one thing to watch is how your body is processing the food. Something to note is that Shakeology is a good source of fiber and helps support healthy digestion.*

In Portion Fix on BODi, Autumn does a deep dive on these important subjects. She covers things like gut health and metabolism, mindfulness and emotional eating, food anxiety around the holidays, and many other hot topics. She explains why they’re important, how they work, and how to best utilize Portion Fix to ensure you’re supporting the healthiest version of you.

Portion Fix | Week 1 | Day 4

Group call! We’ll be doing this every Thursday.

On our call today, we’ll be discussing:

  1. Did you eat all the food in all of your containers?
  2. Did you have leftovers?
  3. Were you left hungry?
  4. Any success on the scale so far?
  5. How about lessening your processed food intake?

I’d love for each of you to jot down a few of these answers before our call and be ready to share!

Coach Tip
Remember to post the call-in information ahead of time so it’s easy for your participants to join. Encourage everyone to talk and share. Also, make a point of sharing YOUR OWN experiences. Your participants are looking to you for motivation, guidance, and support.

image


Portion Fix | Week 1 | Day 5

Judging by the amount of comments and questions I get, it seems like everyone wants to talk about the Blue, Orange, and Yellow containers. As you know, Blue is for healthy fats—things like avocado, nuts, and cheeses. As Autumn points out, healthy fats are beneficial to our nutrition. Your meal plan includes these Blue containers for a good reason. What are some of your Blue go-to’s? The Orange container is for seeds and dressings. What have you put in these to spice up meals? And of course, my personal favourite, the Yellow container. What do you put into this one? What are you interested in trying?

Let’s share with one another. Food shopping is coming up and we can all use some new ideas.

image


Portion Fix | Week 1 | Day 6

Back to the grocery store! This weekend we’re going to make an extra effort to swap in more healthy choices. What items from the food lists are you looking to try for the first time? If you or your family drink soda, can you go a week without it? Or buy less of it? Part of this programme is all about lessening our intake of highly processed foods, and this is a great way to start. One of my fave recipes from the FIXATE Volume 2 cookbook (English only) is the Balsamic Glazed Chicken on page 143. Give it a try! And for breakfast, I love the FIXATE Everything Bagel Breakfast Skillet on Portion Fix on BODi.

Need some tips on what to buy? Rewatch Video 17: “Meal Planning & Tracking” to see what Autumn recommends.

OK, let’s see some photos of your meal prep and shopping!

image


Portion Fix | Week 1 | Day 7

We’re going to start doing a second weekly call. We’ll still have our Thursday check-ins ahead of the weekend; but now we’re adding a Sunday call, to get ourselves in the right headspace for the week ahead. As we all know, setting an intention for a great week can be a little different than actually HAVING a great week. Progress, not perfection, as Autumn says.

So, for today’s call, let’s discuss a few things:

Any special occasions coming up that you’re obsessing over?
Have you been to a restaurant this past week? If so, what tactics did you use to stay on your plan? If you’re struggling, rewatch any relevant video in Rail 3: A Fix for Everything, and we can discuss it tonight.

Don’t forget to meal prep today, and really put some thought into your goals for this week. As you plan for the week, a great accessory for taking your meals on-the-go is the Beachbody Insulated Tote Bag. Want to know more? Message me directly.

Here’s how to join our call:

Coach Tip
As always, encourage everyone to talk and share. Also, make a point of sharing YOUR OWN experiences. Your participants look to you for motivation, guidance, and support. Sunday calls can be more “forward-looking” than your Thursday calls—encourage your participants to talk about their goals and what they hope to accomplish in the next week.

Portion Fix | Week 2 | Day 2

When you’re working hard toward a goal like losing weight—and keeping it off—chances are, you’re inspiring others to think about their own goals. If you haven’t done so already, today is the perfect time to share some of your personal inspiration in the comments below, to help others begin their Portion Fix journey. A great place to start is right at home. Autumn has made it so the whole family can do Portion Fix, and enjoy it. Even kids! Getting your spouse involved can also go a long way in helping you stick with the program, because you have the support of one another.

  1. Who would you like to do the program alongside of?
  2. How can you get them involved?

Portion Fix | Week 2 | Day 3

Many of you have been asking about exercise, and whether you should do a fitness program to help ramp up your results. Although it’s not mandatory, exercise is a great way to reach your goals. Don’t forget that your Portion Fix purchase includes access to the 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix EXTREME workouts, shot in real time. Autumn has also added a few new moves to each program, in addition to a fresh take on your favorites, emphasizing better progress. Once you check these out, tell us what you think!

Also, a subscription to Beachbody On Demand gives you access to hundreds of Beachbody programs—with something for every fitness level, from beginner to advanced.

Are you on BOD (different from BODi, which has the LIVE and on-demand classes)? What programs would you suggest for anyone looking to add exercise to their daily routine?

If you are currently exercising, your plan will also show you how to incorporate Beachbody Performance into your program on the days you work out. I can answer more questions if you have any…just DM me.

Portion Fix | Week 2 | Day 5

Have you checked out the FIXATE Vol. 2 cookbook or the FIXATE cooking show (English only) in the Nutrition Rail on Beachbody On Demand? If so, what recipes have you tried? Each recipe in the cookbook, and on the show, is FIX-approved, meaning it works with your containers. In my house, Sunday is family meal day. What do you like to prepare for your big family meals?

So often, we’re all running around during the week and the weekend is the only time we all seem to get together around the table and really enjoy a meal.

In your FIXATE Vol. 2 cookbook (English only), check out page 129, Singapore Noodles. YUM. It’s so easy to make! In fact, please share your favorite meal so far.

Portion Fix | Week 2 | Day 6

If today or tomorrow is your supermarket day, I’ve got a fun challenge for you. It’s the Green container challenge, and it goes like this. I want you to browse the food lists. Pick one new veggie from the Green food list to try. Then report back.

For those of you with kids, let’s talk more about how to get them involved in healthy eating decisions. The best thing you can do is to set a good example. They learn by watching and doing what you’re doing. So your challenge today is to try and grab the family and head outside and do something active. Walk through your neighborhood. Go to a park. Go on a hike. When it’s time to eat, have everyone make their meals using the containers. Sit with your kids and check out the 75 Healthy Lunch Ideas For Kids PDF (English only) under Video 12: “Kids Fix” to see what sparks their interest. Healthy kids are more likely to grow into healthy adults. And we’d love to hear the reactions from your kids. How’s it been involving them in the Portion Fix program?

Today we hold our end-of-week group call. We’re done with Week 2. We have only two more weeks to go in this group.

Portion Fix | Week 3 | Day 1

We’re in Week 3! Great job. Let’s keep our progress going. Fill out pages 52–53 in your logbook—it’s all about checking in now. Looking back to when you first started the program, what do you notice now? What are you proud of accomplishing? What still needs work? Are you seeing results? Some things may take longer than others—pounds might be dropping but you might still be struggling with those highly processed snack items or your meal prepping. Whatever your unique situation, we’re here to support you.

Take your Week 3 photo, and post it if you’d like. We’re here for you.

Portion Fix | Week 3 | Day 2

US

Remember last week when I posted a couple of times about getting your significant other to do the program? Or introducing your kids to portion control? What’s worked for you?

For those of you who don’t have kids, take time to explore the food lists and really push yourself to try something new.

Fruits are a great place to start if you’re craving sweet treats and trying to avoid soda or your junk drawer. If you’re struggling to stick to your eating plan when cravings hit, a good option is to just drink a little BEVVY, which also helps support healthy weight loss.* You’d be surprised at how good natural sugars can taste in a piece of fruit. I know cutting out or reducing added sugar intake can be hard. That’s why I think it’s important to still satisfy your sweet tooth, but in a healthier way. It can also help to really savor each bite—chew slowly and focus all your attention on the taste, texture, and mouthfeel of what you’re eating.

To that point, Shakeology can act as a treat as well since it’s so delicious—it’s also a superfood shake.*

Another option to help you resist overindulging in sugary desserts is BEACHBAR snack bars, which are container-friendly, gluten-free, and contain 9–10 grams of protein per bar—so they’re a great snack between meals. They count as ½ Red, ½ Yellow, and 1 tsp.

There are also tons of FIX-approved dessert recipes within FIXATE (English only), and on Portion Fix on BODi. Remember, you get three treat swaps per week while following Foundational Fix!

If you’re doing the program with someone else, talk about how that’s helping you stay committed.

*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Coach Tip
Share how you’re doing with the nutrition component. Struggles, wins, etc. It helps when you talk about your own progress and efforts.

Green container challenge! Share a picture or just comment about your experience trying one new vegetable this week. Which did you try? How did you serve it? What was your reaction?

Remember, with the food lists, try to choose from the top ⅓ of the list, even though anything on the list is a good choice. What’s something you’re interested in trying?

The weekend is nearly here, and if you’re like me, it can be a challenge to stay on-track when running around, or seeing friends, or doing social things.

What are your tips for staying committed to your containers?
When it comes to delicious foods, what recipes have you found on the FIXATE cooking show (English only) on BOD, the FIXATE recipes on Portion Fix on BODi, or in the FIXATE cookbooks that have been a yummy surprise?

In your FIXATE Vol. 2 cookbook (English only), check out page 141 for the Beef and Broccoli recipe. You’ll love it.

Grocery shopping day! As we head into Week 4, let’s make sure we’re on top of our Daily Logbook. Today we’ll start on page 68, your Reflections. This is all about taking a moment to really think about where you are, where you’ve been, and where you’re going on your weight-loss journey. It’s also about what you’re feeling as you go through this program. Tomorrow, I’m going to ask what you wrote.

If you’ll be running around today, make your daily Shakeology to-go. It’s a great way to help fuel your body and it can help support healthy energy. And this way, you’ll know you’re getting more of the vitamins, minerals, proteins, and other crucial nutrients your body needs to help keep it going.*

Portion Fix | Week 3 | Day 7

Let’s talk about your Reflections. Do you think keeping track of what you’ve been feeling has helped you over these last few weeks? I find that when I’m in touch with my emotions, I make better decisions about what (and how much) I eat. My weekly Reflections help me stay aligned with my goals by tracking what I’m doing to achieve them, and keeping close tabs on how I’m feeling.

With our group call today, let’s focus on finishing the week strong:

  1. Discuss how you’ve reduced some of your unhealthy habits.
  2. Are you eating fewer processed foods?
  3. What new fruits (purple), vegetables (green), or whole grains (yellow) have you tried and which do you like?
  4. What good habits have you adopted?

Here’s how to join our call:

Also, it’s meal prep day. So make sure you carve out the time to do it right.

Portion Fix | Week 4 | Day 1

Before reading on, take your Week 4 photo! This is so important because it can really show you how well you’re doing!

As we begin our last week together, I want to say this now because it’s so important: Even though this group might be ending soon, this new way of eating lives on. Portion Fix truly is a lifestyle. It’s a new and better way of thinking about food, about how and what you eat (and when!), and how you CAN rewire your life to make smarter, healthier choices. One of the healthier choices I made was with a recipe from the FIXATE Vol. 2 cookbook (English only) for Spaghetti All’Amatriciana on page 145. So, so good!

One thing I hope you’ve discovered along the way is how we can separate our feelings from our food. Not that food isn’t meant to be enjoyed—it absolutely is. But when we’re feeling low or having a bad day, food consumption is not always the answer. In our Daily Logbook today, I want you to dig into pages 70–71 to identify those emotional triggers.

How did you deal with your emotional triggers with food before the Success Group? How do you do it now?

Portion Fix | Week 4 | Day 2

Progress, not perfection. Autumn says it a lot, and with good reason. This is all about your personal journey, and how YOU think about your body and your weight. As Autumn says, remember to use positive self-talk by saying things like, “I’m working toward a healthier version of me” instead of “I haven’t lost enough.” Again, it’s about the progress you’re making every single day. I’m so proud of each of you and all your hard work. REALLY inspiring! It’s also important to remember that your healthy, sustainable HABITS are the most important part of this journey. It’s always about those daily, sustainable habits. The weight loss is much more like a bonus 😉

What progress are you excited to celebrate? What are you most proud of?

Portion Fix | Week 4 | Day 3

Building on what we were talking about yesterday, I want each of you to take a few minutes to really reflect on your efforts. First, take a victory lap because you’ve come this far. You’ve done the work. You’ve learned a new approach. And hopefully, you’ve made some progress with the things that matter to you.

How has your new approach to food impacted those around you? What tips would you give to someone who’s thinking about trying Portion Fix to reach their health and wellness goals?

image


Portion Fix | Week 4 | Day 4

Today’s group call is about reaching out. I’m curious to hear who you think would benefit from this program. When it comes to losing weight and improving health habits, if there’s one thing I hope you take away from this group, is that it’s so much easier when you have the support and encouragement from your tribe—the people just like you who want you to succeed as much as you do.

Here’s how to join our call:

Coach Tip

Use this call to identify WHO among your participants has been especially active, supportive, and motivated by this group. That person may well be your next Coach recruit.

Portion Fix | Week 4 | Day 5

Let’s talk meal prepping. I’m hoping by now that each of you has become an expert at it. So, let’s hear your tips! How do you like to do it? How many days in advance do you plan? What have been the easiest or hardest meals to plan? Who has been the easiest or hardest member of the house to plan for?

Autumn has a great Shakeology prep hack: Smoothie Bags. I love this video because it’s such a simple idea that makes prep time so much shorter. Here’s the video link.

What’s something you never thought you’d enjoy about meal planning and prepping? And how has that changed?

Portion Fix | Week 4 | Day 6

Today’s post is all about looking back and looking forward. Start by going through your logbook. Check out the notes you took, especially at the very beginning. Then, as the days go by, what do you notice? Do you see how your confidence might be growing as you get more comfortable with this new way of eating?

Do me a favor. I want you to treat yourself to some YOU time. Go for a quiet walk. Go through an old photo album. Listen to your favorite podcast. Maybe reach out to a friend you’ve been meaning to contact. Taking care of yourself is so important, and sometimes we give so much to others that we forget to take a little for ourselves.

How do you take care of yourself?

Congrats! Our last day, and our last call. I’d love for everyone to share their goals going forward. Now that you’ve made it through 30 days, what do you have in mind for the next 30 days? 90 days? 6 months? Now that you’ve completed a full month, you should recalculate to find your new calorie bracket and continue on (remember that’s in Rail 1: Video 3: “Find Your Calorie Bracket”). And maybe you’ll add a workout routine, if you haven’t already.

Before I go, I want to say THANK YOU. Your strength, your perseverance, and your motivation have inspired me to start another Portion Fix group. If you know anyone who might benefit from this experience the way you have, feel free to introduce us, or pass along my info. My goal is to help as many people as possible reach their health and weight-loss goals.

In the meantime, remember that Portion Fix isn’t a diet, it’s a lifestyle. This group is really just the beginning of your journey—something you turn into a way of life, instead of something you did with us for just a short period. Portion control provides myriad benefits, which I hope you’ve come to love.

Same with Shakeology. Now that it’s a part of your everyday routine, I’m sure you’ve begun to understand how it can give you a daily foundation to help support your overall health and well-being.*

If you’re not using the Beachbody app on a regular basis, I highly recommend it. It can help you track your containers, access all the Portion Fix content, and so much more. It’s currently available for iOS and Android.

Until next time…
