Ok folks. The results are in for week 3 and there has been a bit of a shake up in the board.
But forget the board for a moment, the participant of the week yet again goes to Trish (my rockstar Mom). Not only has she lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks, but her MD has prescribed that she cut her blood pressure medicine in half as of now. This isn't just about losing weight and feeling better in a swim suit, it's about getting healthy. Saying I'm proud of her and the results she's been able to achieve is a profound understatement. Here's to us all getting more healthy!
Otherwise, I can't describe how excited I am about everyone's progress. We're all getting more healthy, pulling in great numbers, and fighting the good fight. My life's work is to make people more healthy. If this challenge is a small part of that, I feel I have succeeded.
Here are the current standings:
For review, here are how the points are calculated:
Rules:
Do not consume added sugars of any kind. No Splenda, Nutrasweet, xylitol, agave nectar etc. Read labels carefully. For the purpose of this challenge Natural sugars such as honey and 100%maple syrup may be used in moderation.
Do Not consume sugary alcohol drinks like wine and sugar based cocktails. You MAY have simple cocktails with clear liquors (it's the holidays for God's sake). IE: vodka or tequila with lime and seltzer. No dark liquors like Rum - too sugary.
Do not eat grains. This includes but is not limited to wheat, rye, barley, oats, corn, rice, millet, bulgar, sorghum, amaranth, buckwheat, sprouted grains and all pseudo grains like quiona. Note: read labels, many unexpected products include grain.
Do not eat legumes. Legumes are beans and more... Black, red, kidney, lima, white, navy, kidney, peas, lentils, peanuts, peas, chickpeas, and all soy products ( edamame, soy beans, bean sprouts, soy sauce,miso, tofu, etc. Read Labels!)
Do not eat dairy. The strict paleo Gods say none, ever. This challenge, only grass-fed butter is allowed. No milk or cheese of any kind.
Root vegetables are good, white potatoes are bad. Although some articles say different for the sake of the cleanse we are going to ditch these too. Try subbing every potato recipe with sweet potatoes, and if your eating yams or sweet potatoes add more grass-fed butter!
Comment below with your daily record with your name, date, and score, or on my Google plus page.
Scoring:
When you wake up you have a fresh 15 points, you can win and loose points depending on your day. You gain points based on the quality food you eat, your sleep (yup, you GAIN points for sleeping), working out and mobility training. Here's the breakdown:
15 points-wake up every day with a fresh new day ahead of the game.
Add points
+2 points for 60 minutes of working out (30min workout=1 point)
+1 for 7+ hours of sleep
+1 for 2 grams of quality fish oil (2 pills/day)
+1 point for mobility training (stretching/yoga) outside of workout hours.
Max allowed points per day is 20 pts. Kudos to you for putting in a 3 hour workout, but you will only be awarded the 2 pts for that time.
Deducting Points
-1 point for every serving of: deli meats, sausage (only if not fully meat/veg), legumes (ie: hummus, peanuts, peas) salad dressing, red wine, tequila, GF Beer or Cider
-2 points for every serving of dairy with the exception of grass-fed butter (milk, yogurt, cheese, soy products)
-3 points for every serving of cereal, oats, grains, corn, flour, rice, pasta, noodles, quinoa and all things derived from above
-4 points for every SERVING of soda, juice (not fresh squeezed or 100% juice), sports drinks, fried food, chips, pizza, cookies, ice cream, ketchup, processed foods, beer (and all alcoholic beverages other than "1 point beverages", sugar added sweets(cake, sorbet, pie, you get it, don't eat it!)
The lowest you can get for one day is zero (thinking Thanksgiving here people) and the highest is 20.
