In support of my sis…
Heidi is going to start the 100-day raw food challenge on August 1st. While I totally support Heidi and Sam in their raw food lifestyle, it's not something I feel is right for me. I can, however, improve my eating habits and so I might as well start that improvement in support of my sis.

So, here's MY plan:
Over the period of 100 days, I plan on eating no processed sugar, drinking more water, and exercising at least 5x a week. Now we all know that trying to introduce 3 habits at the same time is a bad idea, so it's going to go like so...

August 1st- August 31st: No processed sugar, including anything that has sugar (or a derivative) in the first 5 ingredients of the label. I will also not eat any white carbs (bread, potatoes, rice, etc.)

September 1st- September 30th: Continue with no processed sugar, and add at least 90 oz of water every day.

October 1st- the end of the 100 days: Continue with no processed sugar, continue with 90 oz of water every day and add exercise for 30 minutes at least 5x a week.

I'll post my weight loss stats here once a week, as well as hold myself accountable to my goals. I'll let you know if I cheat. I promise. cool smirk

My ultimate weight loss goal is 35 lbs., but I don't plan on losing all of that in the 100 days.

So, wish us (Heidi and I) luck!

I love it! Thanks for your never-ending support sis! I'm very proud of you for taking on your own personal challenge (you're giving up your beloved M&Ms! WHOA!). And hey, this is really what it's all about. Improving from where you're at and doing what is best for you (you being generalized here).

We're in this together and we WILL succeed!

I love you!

Admirable. I might do the same but only eat all the things you can't... smile

Awesome! A lot of people I am coming across are making changes to their diets, me included. My goal now is to get in all my 5 fruits/veggies servings per day. I can't give up carbs though, being an athlete I need 'em. Plus I really love potatoes. LOL

It's great tht you're getting rid of the processed sugar, but you really don't need to drink a ton of water. If you ask me, excess water is over-rated.
