Nutrition Simplified

Have you ever heard any of these myths, "Carbs make you fat?" "You can eat all the healthy food you want. It is ok.. It's healthy!" "Eggs are bad for you." 
There are ALWAYS going to be different food trends out there. That is just the way we work.
I will tell you I believed all of the myths and trends that are out there before I became health conscious and learned about nutrition!
Truth is carbs don't make you fat, you actually can't eat ALL the "healthy" food you want and eggs are good for you in moderation. 
This is the one I hear ALL the time, " I am eating healthy but nothing is changing, what am I doing wrong?" 
Are you ready for the real kicker???? 
1. PORTIONING IS A REAL THING AND IS KEY! 
Know what that means?
You can eat as healthy and clean as you want but if you aren't doing it the right way then you won't see any difference!
SHOCKER RIGHT?!
This is the MAIN issue that people run into. They think they are helping their bodies by eating "healthy" food but get frustrated when they don't see a change and revert back to crappy habits.
That is why this kick ass little colour coded portion containers came out. To teach you the proper portions and help you eat right!!
Mix that with 22 or 30 min a day workouts and BAM your on the road to a happier healthier life!
So some might still be lost. I know I was when I first heard all about this. What is portion control? How do you know what proper portions are? What is this Portion Fix? How do you find it? Well, I will share with you all you need to know below! 

What is Portion Control?
Portion control is simply knowing what a healthy serving of food looks like. How much meat? How much veggies? Portion control is a learned skill. Most of us don’t have a clue how much we should be eating, and that’s why it’s possible to stay overweight even when we’re eating healthy foods. Simply put, over the years our servings have grown larger therefore causing more obesity than ever before.

How Does the Portion Fix help?
The Portion Fix is an easy-to-follow portion control system that takes the guesswork out of knowing WHAT and HOW MUCH to eat. Portion Fix teaches you what foods comprise a healthy diet, and how to eat the right amount without tedious calorie counting.
How does it work?                                                                   Each of the containers are precisely measured to give you the right amounts of the various food groups for a balanced day: proteins, fruits, veggies, grains/starches, healthy fats and seeds and dressings. If your food fits in the container then your good to go!
It is a fool-proof way to dial in your nutrition! You work with cute little color-coded containers. Proteins go in a red container, veggies in green, and so on. Just follow the Portion Fix Eating Plan to determine how many of each container you should eat per day to reach your goals (weight loss, maintenance, or weight gain) that's right it works for ANYONE!
The Portion Fix works with EVERY Beachbody Program!     The Portion Fix is the winner! Up until now, every program came with its own unique nutrition plan. The meal plans were all similar where calculate how many calories you need to lose or maintain your weight, then eat from a list of “acceptable foods.” The  Portion Fix was designed to go with the 21 day fix and now it works with any Beachbody program, so you don’t have to learn a new complicated system if you switch programs. Easy as pie!! mmm pie... Sorry :p
Will You Have to Use the Containers Forever?                            
No way Jose!!  
What’s great about this system is that once you start using your containers you will be able to see how large (or small) a serving of each should be. Pretty soon you will be able to eyeball your servings and you won’t need the colorful containers with every meal. It is a learning tool to help you become familiar with proper servings and proper foods to eat. You will always have them to double check sometimes if you aren't to sure as well!
I would love to help you figure out if this system would be a good fit for you! 
Please email me with the Subject "Portion Fix" and I will be able to direct you!
Currently 22 Minute Hard Corps and the 21 Day Fix and Fix Extreme come with these cute colour- coded lifesavers to get you started right with your health AND fitness!
