The Easiest 1-Day Jumpstart Plan – Joy Bauer


Looking for a simple reset that’ll have you feeling better by tomorrow morning? This is it.

It’s a 24-hour nourishing menu designed to leave you feeling stronger, steadier, and more energized…. follow it once or repeat it over and over again.

I’ve packed it with protein- and fiber-rich meals to keep you running on all cylinders, plus easy dinners made with just one pan or pot. Along the way, you’ll also find plenty of alternatives to swap in should you choose.

One day. One step. You’ve got this.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • Follow the breakfast, lunch, and dinner outlined below. Don’t love something? Swap in an alternative meal listed below.
  • Add 1 to 2 snacks from the list if you need a boost between meals.
  • Still hungry? Enjoy unlimited non-starchy veggies like carrots, celery, cucumber, tomato, leafy greens, broccoli, green beans….at any point during the day
  • Hydrate well. Aim to drink about ½ your body weight (in pounds) in ounces of water per day. Example: If you weigh 160 pounds, aim for ~80 ounces. Water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea and coffee all count. Skip beverages with added sugar and artificial sweeteners. A good rule of thumb is to drink 16 ounces of water with each meal and snack. That will bring you very close to your daily hydration goal. Then, fill in with more water in between.
