October Nutrition Challenge Starts Saturday

The Challenge Starts on Saturday.

The rules are spelled out here at the Whole 9 Website.

Please make sure you read all of this before you start.

It lists what you can and cannot eat! It also tells you more about why doing this is good for you.

If you have to question any of the rules, this challenge is not for you.

If before you start you already have a state of mind of “I don’t think I can do this” the challenge is not for you

This challenge is for those who want to commit to living this way for 30 days straight, no cheats, not even once!

It can be done.  You can be successful.  It is not that hard.

This challenge is for the participants only.  The only prize is the personal satisfaction that you had complete control of you diet for 30 days.  The added prize is you will feel spectacular.

Here’s how it should work out!

Saturday Morning:

  1. Wake up
  2. Get a starting weight than put the scale in the attic.  You will not step on it for 30 days.
  3. Take a before picture.  Go shirtless or in your sports bra.  Take a front and side view.  These pictures will be seen only by you.
  4. Get to it for 30 days

October 31

  1. wake up
  2. Get your scale from the attic and get a final weight
  3. Take an after picture, front and side view.  If you like the results, and want to share them, please do so
  4. Reflect on the past 30 days.  Challenges, successes, how do you feel. If you want to share this, please do so.
  5. Smile.  You are a healthier version of yourself.
