This is a short YouTube promotional/instructional clip (Autumn Calabrese, Feb 1, 2017) about the 21 Day Fix Extreme program. Speakers (Autumn and others including a registered dietitian) demonstrate the program's color-coded portion-control containers (green=veggies, purple=fruits, red=protein, yellow=carbs; additional containers for healthy fats/dressings), emphasize "no calories to count" and "if it fits in the container" as the portion rule, show a meal assembly example (lettuce + ground turkey in the red container), and promote related content (Fixate cooking show on Beachbody on Demand).
Chapters
I'm so proud of everybody that has lost the weight and gotten such amazing results with my 21 day fix extreme program. And it's a fantastic opportunity for you to be able to do it for free on Beachbody on demand. That means I'm gonna personally show you how to use the containers to lose the weight, but still get to eat the foods that you love.
I am a registered dietitian and I'm here to talk to you about the 21 day fix extreme eating plan and how easy it is.
As long as the foods fit in, these contain, you're good to go. The green is for veggies, purple is for fruits, red is protein, and yellow is carbs. These are healthy fats. And then this is your fruit or dressings.
This handy guide will show you, like, what fits in each container.
People say those containers look so small. Looks are very deceiving. Trust me, you'll never starve on this.
There are no calories to count. You don't have points to keep track of. You just have your handy, dandy little containers. So if it fits in the container, that's your portion. You don't have to worry about any else. It's all listed out page by page.
And that's what makes this program so amazing.
There's no guesswork, but I want to.
Show you what it really looks like for a meal.
So all I'm going to do is I'm going to pack this with my romaine lettuce. And it's a lot, actually. When you start filling, you're going to realize I'm going to use a red container, which is the meat. And I've cooked ground turkey meat. So I'm just going to fill the red container up.
It's funny because when people see these.
Containers, they say, oh my gosh, that's hardly any food. How I'm gonna starve on that plan. Well, that looks like a pretty full plate to me.
It actually is a full plate of food.
And you see, that's a lot of food right there. This is setting a great example for my kids.
You can have foods that you love. It's not plain and boring.
This is awesome for my family because we all can eat the foods we like. I'd rather talk to them about portion control than talking about calories because that just sounds restrictive and that sounds like a diet, and I hate diets.
Here's another plus. I also created a healthy port control cooking show called Fixate that's exclusively on Beachbody on Demand.
I love using these containers because they're so easy. You just put all the stuff in there, you pack it down, you have actually a whole lot of food. It's a lot better than counting calories. It's a lot easier for me. That's how I'm staying fit. On the 21 day fix extreme using the meal containers. And if I can do it, anybody can do it. This system has completely changed my life.
