THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE:
___________________________
This week’s challenge is to eat your veggies... 2½ cups of vegetables every day, which is recommended by the latest dietary guidelines.
“Eat your fruits and vegetables” is one of the tried and true recommendations for a healthy diet. And for good reason. Eating plenty of vegetables and fruits can help you ward off heart disease and stroke, control blood pressure, prevent some types of cancer, avoid a painful intestinal ailment called diverticulitis, and guard against cataract and macular degeneration, two common causes of vision loss.

Altogether, we have lost 178.3 lbs! That's more than many of us weigh! We've lost a whole person! :) Anyway, let this list be a boost of encouragement and motivation to us all. Percentages can be misleading. Some contestants can gain more percentage with less actual weight loss than others, but others may have more water-weight to lose and can do so more quickly. The final prizes of $500, $300, and $150 are still up for any of us to grab.
Do not forget the $50 prize for attending 10 or more weigh-ins.
HALF WAY THERE!!!! LET'S DO THIS!!!!!
