BP.Net Weightloss CHALLENGE

it's not about the calories... it's about the nutrition and unhealthy fats.

i get two bunches of kale at .99 cents a piece.. cut them up, pour in a little olive oil, the juice of one lime or lemon... a little celtic sea salt... massage the crap outta the kale - then add in some purple cabbage or red peppers... some pine nuts, sunflower seeds, chia seeds (high in protein) and let it sit for 5 - 15 minutes and then cut up some cherry tom, cucumber or whatever on top.

this lasts me 3-5 days of suppers!!!! yup you read that right. it costs me maybe $5 to make.

how's that for inexpensive and SUPER healthy!

I'd like to shop where you shop. We have a Giant Eagle like not even a mile from our apartment complex. A Marcs too (more of an upscaled Aldis, but not close to Giant Eagle). I guess I just really have to look around for deals and make sure things aren't spoiled.

Do you live alone? Is that enough for just you? We (my fiance and I) could probably make it last two days. We like salads. Also is that all you eat? If we added a chicken breast to it we'd make it last longer...

Wait til you get married that will change :D

Ok we had a biggest loser type weight loss at work and it made a difference. Im 6" 1" and 250 and weight was 175 when I got married 24 years back. I couldnt read through 300 post but is there a list started of people up for the challenge. I would recommend a prize for the winner to get everybody motivated. What if dedicated someone to hold funds and everyone interested pays 5-20 bucks to enter. After figuring how many would be interested we could agree on a animal of choice. If we all paid 20 and had 100 participants thats a nice morph and it helps motivate. I believe percentage of body weight loss would be fair ! Maybe one of these big time breeders would sweeten the pot and give us some kind of break on a killer morph? Any takers? :gj: We would have to figure out a way for the weigh in to be fair ? Bryan

well as amazing as that sounds...

what about those of us who don't live in the US?

look for the little veggie markets. not the large chains. although the large chains here are .99 cents for kale too.

i don't live alone. i have three kids and a hubby (although one kid is married and gone) but i'm the only one who eats raw... the rest eat meat and cooked foods. i'm a raw-vegan. so it is feeding just me.

so ya, you could add a cooked chicken breast to it. ;)

okay so how's everyone doing? it's been awfully quiet in this thread for a bit.

i'm still sitting on 200 pounds exactly LOL for some reason my body refuses to move below it. *grumbling*... but i'm losing size... inches in fact so that's good.

i'm doing yoga twice a week and working out at the gym 5 times a week. still eating raw... just finished a juice feast/fast for 7 days. yesterday was my first day back on green smoothies and kale salad YUMMMMMMMMY.

so how's everyone? judy... how's it going girlfriend?

I've gained another pound. I've noticed myself eating more fruit though.

Haven't been to the gym, but have been itching to go bike riding. Of course it's the end of January and it's 13°F outside and I have two flat tires. I wish spring was here....

I went to the gym last week one day and could barely move 10 minutes on the treadmill before my ankles started hurting.

I want to lose the weight so bad, but it just seems so overwhelming.

What is raw vegan?
