Daily Weight Loss Challenges (started 08/04/09)


Recommended Posts

Hi girls! I think we all need a little motivation on here since the biggest loser challenge is on hold indefinitely. So I am going to post (or you all can post if you beat me to it) a small daily challenge to help us with our weight loss goals.

 

Today I am challenging you to replace at least 1 sweetened drink with water. If you are already a water-only gal, then I challenge you to drink an extra glass today!

 

Good luck!

I'm in!! I just realized I'm 99 days til my wedding day and I'm panicking because I tired on a pair of pants this morning and they were tighter than usual! AHHHHH!!! I'm a huge fan of food, so my weight loss plans have not been going very well!

Tip: I recently got a box of mini-freezies. 10 cals a peice, and they are great at satisfying cravings! Even if I eat 2 or 3, I'm still looking at less calories than a regular popsicle! :)

Love the water idea! Will substitute for my glass of wine tonight! wink.gif

How did you all do on your challenge yesterday? I had 32 oz of water and 32 oz of Crystal Light- no tea or soda!!

 

Today is going to be FIBER DAY! woohoo! lol

 

Aim to get the RDA 25g of fiber today. Here are some of my favorite fiber-rich foods:

 

Fiber One Bars

Quaker Oats High Fiber Oatmeal

Pinto Beans

Raspberries

Pears

Apples

Whole-wheat Spaghetti

Popcorn

Corn on the Cob

 

 

What are your favorite high-fiber foods?

 

Did you know fiber is not digestable and therefore does not pass through our bloodstream as calories?

 

Fiber has been shown to help regulate digestion, lower the risk of heart disease, and also help you feel fuller- which is a plus when you are dieting.

 

Have a fantastic fiber-filled day y'all!!

 

My first fiber item of the day is my High Fiber oatmeal with light butter...it is SO filling and has 10 grams of fiber. That's almost half of what I need for the day!
