I decided to do a challenge that is going to be very difficult for me!! I hope that all of you give this an honest try...LOL!! Think of the one thing that you love to have since you have started your healthy lifestyle. It has to be something that you will have a HARD time giving up this week. I decided to do this challenge as a way of showing appreciation for what we have and this week we can reflect on how blessed we are! I love nutella and I look at it as a treat!! I will go this entire week without buying or eating ANY nutella!! If you are in, let us know and tell us what you are giving up this week!

    I :heart: :heart: :heart: having an ice cream cone after dinner as a treat when I have done well during the day :love: . I really like all flavors of ice cream but one of my favorites is Breyer's Mint Chocolate Chip. It makes me happy, but it will make me even more happy if I can do this challenge successfully. I just finished the container, so I will be sure not to buy any this week :sad:

    Bring it on!!!

    Ah... This is a hard one. I have a love affair with Pasta and I can eat a LOT of it. I actually have pasta planned for dinner. So I'm having a change of plans and not have pasta at all this week. :cry: But it will be worth it

    I have been having a huge issue with bloating the past few weeks, I am going to give up pickles and adding salt to any of my food and see if that helps.

    You guys are the bomb!!!!! I"m so glad you are going to suffer with me this week...LOL!! I want some nutella right now! I'm going to try not to even think about it and force myself to learn to not go crazy on ANYTHING!! I do eat it in moderation but I don't have to have as much as I do. I can do this, it's mind over matter! We can do this!!

    Give up all junk food (sweets, chips, etc). I've gone over my calories before due to junk so I will challenge myself to give up junk for this week. Wish me luck!:happy:

    red meat. it's not that i'm in love with it but its hard to avoid because my mom makes it for dinner almost every night, and i just eat what she makes, so i eat it a lot. no more red meat! i think this will definitely help my digestion cuz lately I've been feeling super sluggish and slow during my workouts, come to think of it it started around the time i ran out of metamucil, lol. all the red meat must have been making it worse.

Oh how I miss thee, my sweet nutella!! It I have you right now, it will be more than I can take...LOL!! On a more serious note: How's everybody else doing so far?

    Almost done and not a single pickle this week...have felt less bloated.

    Oh and have not added any salt to my food. However I have eaten out quite a bit this week so the salt is harder to control!
