Preperation

Good luck contestants!

You may want to take some time this weekend to go grocery shopping and make some meal plans. Last week, in preparation for the game (and I've really been wanting one..what better excuse?) I bought the pictured water bottle from Hartville Flea Market which also has a rockin' market place for fresh fruit and veggies. I also checked out the Canton Farmer's Market which had some nice vegetables and some local made honey which i purchased since I know I am going to need to sweeten some things.

Good Luck everyone! You should have your score sheets and if you look to the bottom right I have added some links that may be helpful. I plan to keep adding links, so keep checkin' in!

Next post: my shopping trip and maybe some recipes?

Transformation. Choose Wisely!

The Rules: You earn 10 points a day by eliminating an unhealthy habit and 10 points a day by practicing a new healthy habit. You must declare your habit choices below and stick with them for the entire game
The Penalty: Each time you change your habit choices, you lose 50 points, so choose carefully!
The Exception: You get a day off from this rule too--but be smart about it.
I think the idea of this is that it be non-food related
I have a ton of ideas floating around for a healthy habit to start: clean every day for 20 min. My basement would thank me, play the violin for 20 min a day (perhaps another game, really!), Floss my teeth every night (hmm, my dentist would like that one), Yoga, prayer three times a day. So many ideas and I can only choose one. See below for people's transformations. Yes, they need to be in writing!

GAME ON!

Okay, this is my first attempt at a blog. I wanted a place where we could leave comments; post stuff etc. Bear with me as I start this. Above is a picture of the book which can be purchased here; or if you just want to peruse it check out this link.

If I get really good at this I may post recipes and pictures etc. If you have anything you want posted send me an email (You should have gotten one informing you of this blog. Thats probably why you are reading this in the first place).

So, follow my lead and introduce yourself to the other players in the comment section.

The Rules:
You have all received a copy of the rules. If you have any questions about them post a comment here. I will answer to the best of my ability or we can put it to a vote.

We'll be committing to our "transformation" here in writing.
