What does 5 days worth of meal prep on 21 Day Fix look like (with grocery list included)? { Recently posted in the Beachbodyblog and featured on 21 Day Fix fb page}
When I saw this grocery list, I knew I had to share it with y’all! Amanda, on her blog Running Wild and also on Instagram, currently follows the 1,800–2,099 calorie bracket for the 21 Day Fix in order to maintain her weight, and preps 5 meals for the week each Monday. She does it to save herself time later in the week.
While I personally also aim to prep 5-6 days worth of protein and veggies, I tend to keep my precooked food in bulk containers in my fridge, for me to grab and put together on my plate when it is time to eat, or pack individual containers to go throughout my week for work or days on the road. Amanda takes it a step further and portions out her individual meals ahead of time, as seen below.
Here’s pretty much what one day looks like. As you read her daily eats below, you’ll notice a few foods not shown in the pic are also included – yes, that means even more food than what is shown is actually able to be eaten! Lol. Do you hear angels singing? Anytime there’s more food included, that’s great news in my book, and it’s one of the reasons why I love the Fix way of eating. Because you don’t feel deprived!
Here is her grocery list for the week’s worth of prep:
Breakfast: Shakeology with a banana, flax seeds, and 3 tsp. almond butter (1 red, 2 purple, 1 orange, 3 tsp.)
Snack: Two egg muffins (every 3 is equal to about 1 egg, 4 egg whites, with spinach, & red bell peppers) & oatmeal (not shown) (1 red, 1 green, & 1 yellow)
Lunch (Mon/Wed/Fri): Chicken, sweet potato, and broccoli (1 red, 2 yellow, & 1 green)
Lunch (Tue/Thur) – seen above: Tempeh, sweet potato, and broccoli (1 red, 2 yellow, & 1 green)
Snack: Trout with 1 tsp. olive oil, asparagus, and a small apple (1 red, 1 green, 1 purple, & 1 tsp.)
Dinner (Mon/Wed/Fri): Cooked shrimp, bell peppers, & mushrooms sautéed in 1 tsp olive oil, edamame, and ¼ an avocado (1 red, 2 greens, 1 yellow, 1 blue, & 1 tsp.)
Dinner (Tue/Thur) – seen above: Ground turkey, kidney beans, bell peppers, & mushrooms sautéed in 1 tsp olive oil, and ¼ an avocado (not shown) (1 red, 2 greens, 1 yellow, 1 blue, & 1 tsp.)

Are you interested in the fix? You have several options. 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix Extreme both come with the fix containers but their own unique eating plan, plus workouts. The workouts are also, of course, different – with the Extreme being more intense.
There is also something called the Beachbody Portion Fix (PICTURED LEFT), which is the same container system offered without a workout program, for eating with any fitness program of your choice. Pretty cool, right? And it comes with its own eating plan guide book, as well.
And an idea to use when choosing the Portion Fix containers only? Well… for starters, you could combine the fix eating plan with your own choice of workouts, with the newest Beachbody On Demand feature (PICTURED BELOW), giving you the ability to stream your choice of workouts from the club member’s library via the Internet – no need to purchase DVDs! Sweet!
