These two things have helped hundreds of people finish the 21 Day Fix in the past few years. These tips have helped people stop quitting the 21 Day Fix. Possibly more important than finishing the Fix\u2013they&#8217;ve learned how to make healthier choices and fit these choices into their lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong><span class=\"pro-tip\">Never stop counting.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a good round (21 days is a round) where you stay on track all 21 days or have a bad round where you&#8217;re on track for 3 days, but either way, <strong>finish that round<\/strong>. Never stop counting your days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you heard that old saying from Earl Nightingale?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>Never give up on a dream because of the time it takes to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This. is. life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you begin the Fix on Jan 1 and quit on the 7th, you&#8217;re still on day 8 on January 8th. And on day 21 on January 21st. Why stop counting?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first time I tried the 21 Day Fix, I stayed on plan for 4 days\u2013two at the beginning, one in the middle, and day 21. I didn&#8217;t stop counting though\u2013so that four days wasn&#8217;t a failure. It was part of a bad round, for sure. But I finished it. This brings us to our next important tip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. <strong><span class=\"pro-tip\">Do better today than you did yesterday.<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By following this tip, you&#8217;re succeeding a little more every day. Don&#8217;t allow yourself to become overwhelmed with the 21 days. Focus on today being better than yesterday. The first of this month being better than the first of last month. This holiday season being better than last holiday season. This round being better than the last round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By allowing yourself a bit of grace, you&#8217;re allowing yourself to grow and change as a person. Not to feel restricted on a diet, but to evolve and learn how to eat better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52765\" src=\"https:\/\/mycrazygoodlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/21-day-fix-containers-009-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-pin-description=\"Do you keep quitting the 21 Day Fix?

In reality, our eating habits should change slowly over time as we learn and understand why these changes have a positive impact on our diet and lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about all of the important things you have learned in your life\u2013how to ride a bike, how to read, how to drive. You learned these things in stages, over time.&nbsp;Nobody set out to ride a bike one day, learned the next, and never made a mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why do we think we can change years of eating habits overnight?&nbsp;The 21 Day Fix isn&#8217;t all or nothing\u2013it gives you a goal\u2013to eat a certain way for 21 days. But you don&#8217;t arrive at the goal on day 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s all. No magic potions, supplements, or shakes to buy. No need to fill your pantry with new food, make separate meals for everyone, and definitely no need to make a huge lifestyle change overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_finish_the_21_Day_Fix\"><\/span>How to finish the 21 Day Fix<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m serious about this\u2013following the two tips above will allow you to finish the 21 Day Fix without quitting. Finishing a round\u2013even a &#8220;bad&#8221; round\u2013is key. You finished, you completed something, you did it. Now for the next round, do it better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Were you on track for 4 days of the round? Next time shoot for more. Do better the next time, because it&#8217;s all that you can ask of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep your mind open while you&#8217;re on the Fix. Open to new foods, <a href=\"https:\/\/mycrazygoodlife.com\/category\/recipes\/21-day-fix-recipes\/\">new recipes<\/a>, and new ways of thinking (like how you don&#8217;t <em>need<\/em> something sweet after dinner every night).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Important_resources_to_help_you_start_and_complete_Beachbodys_21_Day_Fix\"><\/span>Important resources to help you start (and complete) Beachbody&#8217;s 21 Day Fix:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycrazygoodlife.com\/category\/recipes\/21-day-fix\">Everything you need to know about the 21 Day Fix<\/a> How to calculate your bracket and lose weight on the Fix!
