    You are crazy with your Brit jokes! I bet you are adorable!

    Have you ever had Adobo? Uses tons of garlic (and so delish)! If y'all want a recipe, let me know. Can make it health friendly!

    No I haven't! When you have some spare time bung it in the 'what are you eating' thread and I'll get to making that badboy. Mmm, craving garlic now. But must wait 8 hours for my slow cooker curry! Nooo!

    Another challenge idea...eat a different fruit or veggie each day of the week! Could expand some horizons...and get some of us out of eating the same thing ruts!

    I didn't forget about the Adobo recipe...I just gotta take more time and post it!

    I like the idea of a different fruit or veggie each day, but I think we should go a step further and have a color coded fruit or veggie for the day. Like Monday: Eat a green fruit or veggie, Tuesday: Eat a red fruit or veggie, Wednesday: Eat a orange fruit or veggie, Thursday: Eat a purple fruit or veggie, Friday: Eat a yellow fruit or veggie..... IDK, just a thought :wink:

    I love this idea! Colour coding would mean getting some fun variety. I mean, I eat a ton of cucumber, usually about 1 a day, but mixing it up on purpose for a challenge would be fun. I like fun :)

    I have a week challenge idea.

    If y'all are like me, you have a pantry, freezer, fridge of food but still head to the grocery store each week to buy more! How about we have a pantry challenge?! The rules would be that you use what you currently have in your house, the only exception is that you are allowed to buy fresh vegetables!! We would need to be creative and resourceful and have the potential to save money in the process!!

    Thoughts?!

    I think this is a great idea, I do this once in a while anyway both for my budget and to make sure I am rotating out older stuff regularly. It's also fun to figure out what you can make that's healthy from random-freezer-excavations and back-pantry-tins.

    Unfortunately for me most of my freezer is full of stuff I quit eating three weeks ago when I started here! I've been feeding them to my other half until I run out and then it's crazy new food concoctions for all!

    I live alone, so when I started my journey, which is wheatless, my mom benefitted from a whole bunch of half-open boxes of pasta, frozen bread, and stuff. (Also gave a bunch of the dry goods that were still sealed to the food bank). I didn't have anyone else to feed them to LOL

    I have an idea for a week long challenge... Eating dinner at least 2 hours before you go to bed. I have noticed that personally I lose more weight when I give myself proper time to digest my food before bed.... Just a thought :wink:

    A little late, but advent calendar challenge? Each day a random exercise - 1 pushup, 2 situps, 3 star jumps etc xD

    I was just poking around in old discussions and found the idea for an advent calendar challenge. Love it!
