Body Beast Meal Plan…Here Goes Nothing!!!

I have been contemplating doing Body Beast for a couple of months now, and I finally decided to bite the bullet and just do it!!! If I start on Monday, that gives me 90 days until the New Year. And I would love to kick off 2016 way ahead and in the best shape ever!!!

So, before I started the 21 Day Fix a year and a half ago, I was totally and completely intimidated by weights.  I didn’t know what to do with them.  I was afraid of hurting myself, and like every other woman who knows nothing about them, I was afraid of bulking up and putting on a ton of weight….Boy, was I wrong!!!


I noticed right away with the Fix that I started gaining muscle definition right away.  I had been running A LOT before that, so my body was used to cardio.  But it wasn’t until I started cleaning up my eating and adding the weights that I got any type of muscle definition.  And let me tell you, from the girl who has never ever had muscles, that was friggin’ awesome!!!!




After doing five or six rounds of 21 Day Fix, my coach suggested doing Chaleane Extreme.  And again, I was kind of intimidated.  This program is primarily weight focused, and I mean lifting much heavier than I ever had!  In the second month, I was squatting up to 30 pounds!  I leaned out like never before!  So, I began to see the magic happening with weights. My body responded well to this type of program.  And Chalene is really good at teaching technique, so I quickly got comfortable with lifting heavy without hurting myself.


This summer, I went back to Chaleane Extreme and again, I have noticed that I am regaining some definition that I lost when I stopped lifting heavy.  So, this week I finish up month 3 of CE, and next week I am diving into Body Beast.


Honestly, I am not drawn to Sagi’s personality, but I know that the program works.  I have fellow coaches who have shared their results with me, and I’m excited to get started. It doesn’t hurt that I’m a huge fan of Bachelor Sean, and he’s in the videos!!! That guy is too cool.

Back to Beast…


So, as with all Beachbody programs, they stress the importance of nutrition as well as the workout portion.  I’ve been going through the meal planning guide, which is really very simple, and I realize that I am going to need to boost my calorie intake.  I’m going to add 200-300 calories by eating more protein and healthy fats, like nuts, avocados, and a protein supplement.  This girl is NOT complaining about having to consume more calories!!!


And with the holidays approaching, I want to make sure I’m in the best shape I can be in order to start 2016 ahead and not lagging behind because I let the holiday goodies get to me!! When I have a program, a plan, and a support group, I’m capable of anything!

So here goes nothing!!! 


I’m actually looking for some test subjects to do Body Beast* with me.  This is an advanced program, designed for people who may already be working out or lifting weights.  If you have completed the 21 Day Fix, this would be a perfect next step!
