We’re halfway! After talking with many of you in person or via email it sounds like you’re finding success! Did you reach your week 2 goal? Either way, keep working at it. Remember, we are trying to build change that lasts a lifetime.

To recap, Week ONE was all about getting started on this journey and being more mindful of our health. Week TWO focused on movement and activity. Week THREE is all about healthy eating, portion control and nutrition.

Week THREE Challenge: Your week THREE challenge is to make THREE healthy food swaps this week. You can achieve this goal by reading nutrition labels, cutting back on portion sizes, and choosing natural, unprocessed foods. For example, maybe you try greek 0% yogurt instead of your typical flavored mix-ins yogurt. You may order a healthier menu item instead of your usual when eating out. Maybe you have oatmeal for breakfast instead of a sugar laden cereal. You’ll be receiving tips in our group space during the week on how to achieve this challenge, so check back frequently!

Week THREE Goal: So far, you have been creating and writing your own goals – this week I am setting your goal for you – to stay within your calorie limit that was set by myfitnesspal. You get to choose how many days you are going to achieve this goal! Write your goal number of days down on a post it note or somewhere you will see it. For example: “I am going to stay within my 1400 calorie limit 6 out of 7 days this week”
