Day 7

Team how did you do yesterday for Meatless Monday? If you missed the mark, there will be one more opportunity next Monday to meet the challenge. Today kicks-off a new nutrition challenge: no more than 50 carb grams per day. Reiteration: Not per meal... it's per day! I strongly suggest you enter your food into MFP which will give you the total number of carbs each food contains so that you can stay under 51 grams. Please, please, please read the attachment. It provides the foundational information for this Challenge. A comprehensive list of what to eat is also included. It will help you tremendously with purchasing and eating the right foods to eat this week. Accomplishing this to the BEST of YOUR ABILITY this week will set you up for success for what lies ahead.

Today's Physical Challenge

Refer to the Guide that's attached to get your numbers for the 25 DAY AB & SQUAT Challenge for today.

If for health reasons you cannot perform the exercises, your option will be to stand in place tighten your ab muscles and pull your knees in towards your chest as high as you possibly can. Be sure to do the same number of knee lifts that correlates to the number listed in the Guide for the exercise you're replacing. For example, on days that we do 35 crunches, 20 cross crunches and 65 squats, you do 35 knee lifts (morning), 20 knee lifts (afternoon) and 65 knee lifts (evening). The number of lifts is for each leg (alternating). Feel free to use this option anytime you need to. Just remember to keep it moving and refrain from skipping the Challenge altogether.
