MINI DIET CHALLENGE

trappersdelight

I POSTED THIS ON FB SO THOUGHT ID SHARE ENJOY


OK ladies thought Id share this with those of you who are my really good friends ,friends or ppl who touch my life in some type of good way(Thanks Youtubers and bloggers). I was forwarded this email from some group I had joined maybe last year some time.And Ive been sitting on it.



This is called the mini diet because you are eating foods you like and not doing a really tough diet per say.By no means do I think any of the ladies I tagged in this post are fat. I tagged you because we all can be healthy (yes skinny mini friends you too) and I know I can raise my hand and say sometimes its tough figuring out what to eat and portions etc....



Part1 :So starting Sept first for at least 2 weeks I challenge my friends to mini diet with me. I do not eat meat (land animals) so I will be substituting all the meats for a veggie or a high protein seafood.I know some you chicas don't do dairy so find your substitutes now.Please feel free to modify this diet to fit your needs. Just make sure your keeping it kinda close or as close as can be to the original diet .



Part 2 : Of this challenge will also be drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day but my goal water intake will be 12 glasses.

And doing at least 1 physical activity a day at least a hr or longer. I'm gonna zumba,walk and take kickboxing classes.



If you decide to take this challenge please leave comments and post your results at the end of 2 weeks. I'm saying two weeks just as a trail run to see if I /We can adapt (you see there's no fried foods *sideeye* lol).



I really like the mini diet because I have most of the groceries already in my fridge and cabinet so I really have not much to purchase.And there are choices so you can mix it up.Also I like most everything except the meat of course and hummus. I hate diets where everything is yucky.



If you want to be old school and write out your food journal go ahead lol if you want to come on into 2011 head over to WWW.myfitnesspal.com they have a great I phone and Android app designed to help you with your goal. You can track calories,what you ate and even your exercise.They have pretty much every food in their data base. Its kinda like fb for ppl looking to get healthy .You can make a profile request friends leave comments and motivations for your friends.My name is Trappersdelight on MFP aka my fitness pal Add me. You can sync it with fb and twitter so friends and family can see you reaching your goals.



There is also a app on your phone to remind you to drink your daily water goal just type in water in your phone app search.



I think Ive covered all the bases so LETS GET HEALTHY (WELL FOR TWO WEEKS AT LEAST) LMAO hands in ladies #teamminidiet #teamwaterdrinkingladies #teamhealthy #teamgohardorgohome

Cochran’s suggests, “If a 1,000 to 1,200 calorie budget starts to feel too low….Just eat more! Pros agree it’s better to add a couple of extra snacks than risk getting burned out.”
