Yesterday was my first day. I'm starting at 222 lbs. I didn't take my measurements, because I don't have a measuring tape, but I'm sure my pants will tell me the results soon! I'm currently at a size 18. I'm hoping to be about 10 lbs down and a size 16 or lower by the end of these 3 weeks!
The way the fix works is you get different colored containers and have a certain number of them a day. See below of the chart of what the measurements are. Orange is seeds and dressings, Blue is healthy fats & cheeses, Yellow is carbs, Red is proteins, Green is veggies, Purple is fruit and Teaspoon is oils & butters.
Containers | Measurements | |
Orange | 2 tbsp | 1 oz |
Blue | 5 tbsp | 2.5 oz |
Yellow | .50 cups | 4 oz |
Red | .75 cups | 6 oz |
Green | 1.25 cups | 10 oz |
Purple | 1.25 cups | 10 oz |

You get to eat A LOT of food. There is a chart to figure out how much you get based on your weight and calorie level. I get 1 orange, 1 blue, 4 yellow, 6 red, 6 green, 4 purple, and 6 tsp a day! That's a ton of food.
For dinner last night, I used 1 red, 3 green, 1 blue, and 1 tsp. I made a Turkey Stir Fry-esque thing.
As you can see there is a TON of food on my plate!
I started with 6 oz of ground turkey and fried it up in 1 teaspoon of olive oil. I, then removed the cooked turkey, and put in the almost 4 cups of veggies of broccoli, cauliflower, and mushrooms into the frying pan and cooked them up for about 10 minutes.
After everything was cooked, I put them on my plate and put 1/4 cup of sharp cheddar cheese over it all.
The only thing I'd do different would be to add spices to the turkey, it was a little bland! But other than that, a HUGE plate of food and delicious!

Spices are zero calories :) Thyme and Rosemary would be great on that!!
