    not sure what you mean . .

    I'm referring to not going OVER your recommended calorie intake

    I got 3+ servings of veggies but no fruit!- oops

    Week 3 is here!

    Hope everyone is racking up the points with the veggies/ftuits and staying within calorie goal for weeks 1 and 2.

    This week, we all need to move a little! Exercise has always been good for a healthy body, but don't oerdue it!
    Your body needs rest too!

    Award yourself a point for each day you exercise, but make sure you take time off for rest . Therefore there is a
    maximum of 5 points this week (exercise 5 days, 2 days of rest).

    Get moving and earn a potential 5 points for week 3!

    Not doing too bad, had a loss but only 1lb but happy all the same!

    Got my exercise in the past 2 days- a 5K run on treadmill yest and
    a TRX class today.

    Will focus this weekend- have a party to attend Sunday and don't want to
    end up "grazing", even if its on healthier foods.

    have a great weekend!

    GAh - more computer issues, preventing me from posting sooner!

    its the most important meal of the day! Every day this week you do so, earns you a pt for a
    potential 7 pts for the week. Don't foget, keep doing the previous weeks challenges to rack up
    more points!

    Week 5 challenge starts tomorrow!

    Carbs are important for a healthy lifestyle, but make sure you are gettin the right ones!

    This week, be sure to include at least 1 serving of complet carbs and limit your simple carbs
    (most white foods). Reach for whole grains and whole wheat varieties to help curb your
    appetite and add nutrients! 1 pt for each day you do this, for a potential 7pts for the week!

    Final week challenge: DRINK UP!

    Hydration is super important when working out and eating right, so be sure
    to drink enough. 8 glasses of water are recommended for most!

    Drink 8 glasses of fluids, at least half fo them water, each day and award 1 point for each day you do so!

    Good Luck!
