Turkey Day Challenge


Turkey Day Challlenge
This challenge is just to get you focused on eating right and making a commitment!  (Our next Challenge, that will begin after Thanksgiving, will have more specific rules.)  Pick a goal and post it on the board.  You have 15 days to work toward the goal.  The only thing extra thing you need to do is post a delicious recipe on the CrossFit Downtown Augusta Facebook page.  Please include where you found the recipe.  This will help the rest of us with our menu challenges.
Goal examples:
Eat strict Paleo, Lose 5 pounds, No sugar

Typically the next couple months people gain weight and don't focus on their health because of the holidays!  So we are going to start a promotion that will hopefully help this tradition come to a halt!  We will have 3 challenges.  The first will be before Thanksgiving, the next between Turkey Day and Christmas, and the  last will start on the New Year!

Next Monday we will be starting a 15 day Turkey Day Challenge!  15 days of eating HEALTHY!!!  So start thinking about your goal. Will it be weight loss, inches lost, weight gain, etc?  We will have a sign up this week and start on Monday.  We are not going to make you eat only Paleo or Paleo with dairy or  Zone or Warrior.  We want you to figure out what works for you.  Basically you need to eat lean meats, fish, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds. Stay away from sugar and processed foods.  We have a lot of resources on the NUTRITON link.  We have links to Paleo, Zone, and the Warrior Diets.  There is a recipe blog for sharing recipes.  This will come in handy as we start to find good recipes that are worth sharing.  If you find any valuable information, videos, books, etc. that you think we would benefit from, shoot us an email!  juliecrossfit@yahoo.com.  We can use all the help we can get!  Below is a link to one of Robb Wolf's videos.
