Nutrition Challenge Week #3
EAT PROTEIN!
You will hear lots of advice on how much, but lets give this a try: 0.7 grams of protein per pound of body weight. Studies show that this diet led to more weight loss, more fat loss, and less lean mass loss than a low protein diet.
This will most likely increase the protein you are currently eating, so keep track! (Try My Fitness Pal) Begin to redistribute you portions each meal, 1/3 protein on your plate!

Nutrition Challenge Week #2
DRINK WATER!
Drink 10 - 8 oz cups a day. Go ahead and measure your favorite water bottle. Remember how many times you need to fill it EVERY DAY. Or you can keep track with a fun FREE app on your phone: MyFitnessPal.
This is the time to ELIMINATE high sugar drinks like soda or juice. (Remember last week's challenge?) If you don't like plain water, opt for a sparkling version or naturally flavored. READ THE LABEL, it's funny what they can slip in our "healthy water".
Nutrition Challenge Week #1
NO SUGAR!
You can be as picky as you want with the interpretation of this challenge... but absolutely NO refined sugar goodies! If you stay away from natual sources of sugar also, your results will be more dramatic. HELP SUPPORT YOUR SISTERS! This is a hard one!
