Nutrition Challenge – Week 1
Posted on May 6, 2013
Week 1: Nutrition Challenge – Whoo hoo! Note – this starts Tuesday so we are short one day this week – next week it will be a full week!
SET A goal this time: Incorporate a real 6 week goal and get it up on the brown paper at CrossFit. Do you want to lost 5 points. Lose 5 inches. Get 5 unsolicited compliments, Fit into a pair of jeans hanging in closet. Learn Good from bad Carbs, Learn to be more disciplined with cheats…choose a goal! The more specific the goal the more likely you will achieve it!
Challenge
Start with 10 points. And add and/or subtract based on being good or bad:) At end of week submit Score via comments section of this post!
* Plan out 3 cheats for the week and stick to those 3. No EXTRA or Opportunistic Cheats! subtract 1 point for any cheat other than your 3 planned! Even if it was your 1st cheat of the week – if it was opportunistic and not planned ahead of time it is a minus 1:(
* Every Day this week (starting Tuesday and going thru to Sunday) drink 60 oz of water and eat 4 veggies. Every day. Subtract 1 for each day you miss on water and each day you miss on 4 veggies.
Bonus Points: Post something on our CF Facebook group about healthy eating, a recipe or anything. Posting at least once gives you 5 extra points. Go for a 3 mile run or walk this week and post to let us know and motivate us! That gives you another 5 points.
Max Points for the week 20 ( 10 + 5+5).
Examples on Scoring: By end of week I had one opportunistic cheat and missed water on Thursday and did not get in all 4 servings of Veggies and 60 oz of Water on Saturday. But – I posted a recipe on FB and ran and posted a 3 mile run I did! Score = Start with 10 – 1 (opportunistic cheat) – 1(veggie miss Thurs) – 2 (water and veggie miss on SAturday) + 5(recipe) + 5(ran and posted 3 miles) = 16.
I WANT YOU TO REPORT YOUR SCORE FOR WEEK 1 RIGHT HERE UNDER THE WEEK 1 POST – USE COMMENTS SECTION!
I am going to do my best, seems doable
Do I have to be a paying member to play/ contribute? So explain what is a cheat? How big can a cheat be?
Well I did not succomb to a opportunistic cheat – chocolate cake with frosting for free at work for a celebration that I was not aware of before today. It looked really good too. I had celery instead.
I also got an unsolicited weight loss compliment today. Whoo Hoo!
15 points. Start with 10 then added 5 for my 3 mile walk/runs. And another 5 for posting healthy. Subtract 5 for not enough water, not enough veggies, and a o er cheat :0(

19 points. Gave in to the coffee creamer. But I stuck to the other 3 cheats as planned. Water & Veggies every single day!
I forgot …I didn’t technically start until Wednesday because I had to gear myself mentally for the challenge.

week 1 – 14 – didn’t post about challenge and one day without water requirement.
I got a total of 17! I cheated once on Saturday, and twice for my Mom on Mother’s Day, haha. Not bad cheats, but cheats nonetheless. Got 5 points for running that lovely switchback trail and posting. And another 5 for posting my dish 🙂 Not too shabby and I can say that I am down pounds already!

20 points for week one . I forgot to post earlier, was away on a little vaca visiting my aunt. She wanted to know who this Chrissy was that was making me skip all the good stuff. 🙂
3 milie walk, my first 5K = 10 pts. minus 3 pts. for 3 days of not meeting the water intake of 60 oz. and 2 extra cheats = 2 pts. Total = 15 pts.
