21 Day Fix Review


We’ll look at the workouts first, then diet and ordering options.


There are 8 21 Day Fix Workouts with the option to add in deluxe routines.


You base 21 Day Fix workouts are Total Body Cardio, Upper Fix, Lower Fix, Pilates Fix, Cardio Fix, Dirty 30, Yoga Fix and 10 Minute Abs.


Each workout is 30-minutes long and easy to follow. They also include a low-impact modifier which is very helpful for beginners.


You don’t have to be an athlete to do the workouts either. The moves are simple to learn, but they are challenging!


The workout schedule is also something you can keep using forever. I like to challenge myself to get more reps or pick up heavier weights every time I workout with Autumn.

The schedule includes one 30 minute workout every day for 3 weeks. You can choose to add an additional workout in Week 3 and do a 3 Day Quick Fix in the last 3 days for MAX results.


What do you need for the 21 day fix workouts?


  • A set of Dumbbells – I used 5 – 8lbs or a Resistance Band
  • Yoga Mat (optional)
  • The DVDs or Beachbody on Demand

Is there a modifier?


Yes! There is a modifier in every workout, and her name is Kat. She shows you proper form, and Autumn explains each modification very well.


Plus, Kat looks like a normal person (versus a fitness competitor) working out which motivated me to keep going. If she can do it, I can do it.


Is the 21 Day Fix for Men?


Yes! In every workout, there is at least 1 man doing the workouts sweating too! The workouts don’t include any silly music or girly moves. Men will follow the same meal plan based on their weight and goals. They may need to up their dumbbells to feel challenged.


The 21 Day Fix Meal Plan Containers
21 Day Fix Meal Plan


The eating plan is based on portioning your macronutrients. Autumn Calabrese used the container system as a fitness competitor and new mom.


While you could track macronutrients and weigh everything, that takes a lot of knowledge, effort and time. The 21 Day Fix meal plan really breaks it down into simple color-coded containers for you to use.


Here are a few quick things to know about the 21 Day Fix Meal Plan:


  • No food is off limits (view the food list)
  • The program also includes the Portion Fix containers
  • You don’t count calories (calculate your containers here)
  • You have the flexibility to choose when and what you eat
  • It’s also customizable to fit breastfeeding, food allergies, and other dietary needs

The containers are at the base of this program, and I think it’s why it works so well. All you have to do is trust the meal plan for 3 weeks and use your 21 Day Fix Containers.


The 21 Day Fix containers are all different sizes and each color represents a food group.


  • Green is Vegetables
  • Purple is Fruit
  • Red is Protein
  • Yellow is Starches & Treats
  • Blue is Healthy Fats (Nuts, Avocado, etc)
  • Orange is Healthy Fats as well (dressings & seeds)

The 21 Day Fix meal plan clearly outlines how many containers of each color you eat per day.


More on the 21 Day Fix Diet



On the 21 Day Fix meal plan, Shakeology counts as a protein.


I believe Shakeology works and is a great way to get a healthy protein each day along with essential vitamins, minerals, and power foods.


Since I started my Shakeology diet plan, my digestion, energy, and results have improved. It isn’t just a protein either – I actually count it as a Green and a Red because of all the vegetables in it. You can read my full review of the power food shake here.


If you apply for our 21 Day Challenge we can also provide you with a Shakeology meal plan.


Can you have treats on the 21 Day Fix diet?


For every 2 yellow (Starch) containers you don’t eat, you get 1 treat up to 3 times a week. The treat is approximately 100-250 calories. Some of my favorites are a glass of chardonnay or a Snickers bar.


Now you may be saying 3 treats isn’t enough, but remember even pizza is on this plan. It’s just all about moderation.


How do you follow recipes using the containers?


The original meal plan includes a few recipes that list container breakdowns. This helped me figure out what my other recipes might be.


There is also a cookbook now to go along with the program called Fixate. It has 101 recipes in it!

Other Notes on the 21 Day Fix Meal Plan


  • Each container is BPA-free, microwave, and dishwasher safe, and has a lid.
  • I honestly never felt deprived or hungry on the plan.
  • It’s important to always get in every container.
  • There are vegetarian options.
  • If you want a harder diet plan look at the 21 Day Fix Extreme Countdown to Competition option.

My 21 Day Fix Before and After Photos


I couldn’t believe my 21 Day Fix results! It was a simple plan to follow, and it gave me better results than other 90-day programs. I used the 21 Day Challenge Pack with Shakeology.


I lost 5.5 lbs and 11 inches on the 21 Day Fix!

That was just in 1 round! My waist went down to a 24!!! That is smaller than it was in high school! I also wore my tightest pair of jeans to a concert, and they were almost loose! Another awesome feeling was that I wasn’t craving a cheat meal.
