Make sure to eat at least 2 different kinds of vegetables, and two different kinds of fruit per day, for 5 points per day. If you manage at least one kind of fruit and one kind of vegetable, you can still earn 2 points.
You can eat the same fruits and vegetables every day if you want. Tinned, frozen and fresh fruit/vegetables are okay. Fruit juice (unless freshly squeezed) does NOT count.
we 13 Apr
15 sit-ups per day for 2 points per day, and 'drink no calories' for 1 point per day.
we 20 Apr
I'd like to see us expanding our horizons. I've never done this before, so this is a perfect excuse. Eat 1 serving of an organic food each day for two points. This can include both produce and meat. Go by the product label to determine the serving size. And because organic is more expensive than conventional, it can be the same food for each day. And to try a different exercise each day for another two points (i.e. swimming, walking, running/jogging, situps, pushups, pullups, sports, jumping jacks, weight lifting, biking, rowing, dancing, etc). To make sure every one is doing a different exercise, they need to update their team thread with which one they did. This will also give others on their team ideas of ones they can try.

Diet Challenge: 2 Points for every day where no junk food at all is consumed. By junk food I'm talking candy, potato chips, cakes, ice cream, etc. Also, 2 points daily for NOT adding any additional salt to your meals. I still cave into my cravings for sweets from time to time and I do love adding salt to my meals so this will be a challenge for me. It may be a lay up for the rest of you.
Exercise Challenge: I *think" it should be nice enough for everyone to get outside now so hopefully this one will be a fair one. If you disagree, please let me know. I'm thinking maybe 2 points a day for a half hour's worth of exercise (walking, jogging, swimming, yard work, etc) outside. Getting out and about in the fresh air and sun can be a great moral booster. I hope this one will be doable.
we 04 May
25 jumping jacks starting Saturday and increased by 5 everyday for 2 points. (Apparently, Jumping Jacks are also known as 'Star Jumps') - max 14 points
No pre-packaged food like frozen dinners, pizza, chicken wings, and nothing you can microwave for 2 mins for a quick meal. The idea is to get back to the basics. When all this stuff was not available to us and to eat the way we are suppose to be eating without all the chemicals and salt for another 2 points - max 14 points
No weighing for a week..I know this is hard for us cause alot of us are scale junkies..But lets look in the mirror instead of a scale to make us feel good..Its not all about the numbers..for another 2 points. (Obviously, other than the weigh in on Saturday) - max 12 points
