Hey Ladies, this is for you! This is my TurboFire Nutrition Simplified plan!
Looking for help with your TurboFire Nutrition? After being stuck at a weight-loss plateau for over a year and killing myself at the gym 1-2 times PER DAY, I switched to doing TurboFire at home (35-55 mins per day, 6x per week), followed the nutrition plan and started drinking Shakeology. I had to actually raise my calories from about 1000-1200 per day to 1600 per day (see page 12 of the TurboFire Nutrition guide) and then I started losing weight! I lost 8 lbs in the first 7 weeks and was so excited to be progressing again. It turns out, my body was in starvation mode and was clinging to the body fat.
I finished Turbo Fire and lost 13 lbs & 13 inches in just 84 days!
To see photos of my results, check out my TurboFire Results page!
TurboFire Nutrition Simplified Video
Before you read further, make sure to check out this video my hubby and I made that simplifies how to lose weight with TurboFire. This should help a lot!
3 Steps to getting started with TurboFire Nutrition
- Calculate your caloric need (See page 12)
- Choose 3 meals, 2 snacks a day
- Drink at least eight 8oz glasses of water per day
Basics of Losing weight with the TurboFire Nutrition Guide
- Calorie deficit – We MUST eat less food than we use in energy each day to lose weight. This is a called a calorie deficit. Eating too little can cause your body to enter starvation mode. You’ll also run out of energy during workouts so how large of a calorie deficit is important? I coach people to use about 500-800 per day. This prevents rebounding from weightloss because you don’t go into huge hormonal swings
- Write it down – In order words, keep track of what you eat! This will have a big impact. Why? Because you will see how much protein, carbs and fat are in the foods that you eat. This is always a huge eye-opener! What do I use to track what I eat? Loseit.com – it’s free and they also have a free app for iphone & android..
- Stock up on fruits and veggies – You have to be careful with this one because too many fruits in one day provides too much sugar. It’s important to limit sugar each day to drop the bodyfat.
- Bring it with you to avoid junk food – If you’re busy like me, you may find yourself away from your home and hungry… it’s better to bring healthy snacks with you so you can avoid junk food. Check out our list of healthy snacks for ideas.
- Make small changes – It can be overwhelming to make a lot of changes at once… The Turbofire diet guide says to make small changes at first. I agree with this. You don’t need to have perfect nutrition to start seeing results. Pick a few things to work on each week and keep taking it up a notch. This is what I did!
- Weigh it out with a food scale – This is really useful when you’re tracking what you eat.

My “Must have” Supplement to use with the Turbo Fire nutrition plan
Would you really like to take your nutrition up a notch?
Shakeology-This is the fastest and healthiest way to transform your body. This really helped me to reduce the cravings and give me energy. I was skeptical of the price at first so I decided to try it out using the 30 day-money back guarantee. I’ve been on it every day since. In fact, it’s now one of only 2 Beachbody supplements that I use and recommend. To me, it’s WORTH IT but you’ll have to decide that for you. It’s basically a high quality meal replacement unlike anything else. It will help you lose that body fat and give you energy. Why? Because it contains 70 of the healthiest nutrients in the world. It improves your digestive system, removes toxins, lowers cholesterol, helps you to lose fat and improve energy levels, hair, nails and skin. I have this every day for breakfast. It comes out to $4/day but if you order Shakeology from this site, I’ll coach you for free.

Hello, well Im not sure how to start..I was looking into P90X on you tube and stumbled upon your video regarding TurboFire and Shakeology.. I was amazed upon your transformation and find myself confused on what work out video I should be investing my time on..
I weigh 165, Ht 5’1, and I am 26yrs old and out of shape… I am actually content w/my body but its time to get into shape before I gain more weight and it gets harder..
Well my question is I would love to be part of your team.. If you could guide me through the right direction on what product I should start.. I would be verry gratefull. Thank you for your time and I am sure you have heard this many times but congratulations on your life transformation.
Thanks Amanda! I love inspiring others to take control.
As far as which workout is best for you it depends on what type of workouts you like. I chose TF because of the upbeat music and it looked like a ton of fun. It took me about 3-4 weeks to get the choreography but once I did there was no stopping me. They have a new to class option which slows it down and shows you the moves before speeding it back up and Beachbody came out with a TF beginners pack that helps to learn the moves. Let me know what questions you have. You can email me at kate@symbioticfitness.com or join my team and we can chat more.
