Hey Chicks!!<\/p>\n
Sis here! In the spirit of Nutrition Month, I am about to embark on a 30 Day Nutrition Challenge. You see, when it comes to Chick Tips, I can talk the talk, but I am having a hard time walking the walk.<\/p>\n
For the next 30 days (starting Monday of course!) I am going to be accountable to all you Chicks out there. I will be logging my daily meals, doing some video blogs and hopefully giving you all some encouragement and ideas too.<\/p>\n
So, what am I going to be eating?<\/p>\n
Well first off, I HATE counting calories. As soon as I try, I actually become obsessive which leads me to eating MORE! I know that doesn’t work for me, so instead I am eliminating certain foods for a month and am going to eat reasonable, satisfying portions of natural foods.<\/p>\n
Here’s my plan:<\/p>\n
Eliminate sugar AND artificial sugars So what’s left for me to eat? I’ll be eating<\/p>\n Tons of veggies, especially greens! You Chicks may think this sounds extreme, but just so you know, I am For me, I haven’t had dairy for a few months, and gluten containing foods make me feel bloated and blah. Also, some foods trigger me to eat more, like I can’t just have one glass of wine, or a handful of nuts. I tried limiting my caffeine intake to one cup of tea per day….that soon stretched to 10! And no, I am not kidding! So for an all or nothing Chick like me, avoidance is best.<\/p>\n Anyway, tomorrow is Day One. I will be taking measurements and stats – although I may not make those public just yet!<\/p>\n I am a little nervous about putting it all out there, but I need a kick in the butt!<\/p>\n I will talk to you, Chicks tomorrow.<\/p>\n Sis \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n ps I did have a last meal tonight consisting of a half pound bag of m&m’s!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hey Chicks!!
