Check out a recent post from Coach Becky’s blog regarding sleep.  Although proper nutrition and exercise can do a lot for your health, sleep plays a big role in your ability to maintain or lose weight.  Remember that we are trying to get healthy, so we cannot ignore this important part of our life – sleep.  When we say “Rest Day,” we really mean it!

Eating Primal

We are two weeks into the challenge, and from what I can tell everyone is doing an amazing job.  We are already hearing from many of you that you are seeing results.  We just heard today that one of our athletes has already lost 10 lbs! Congratulations, David! It may take a little longer for some of you to see results, but if you keep at it, there is no doubt that you will succeed.

Remember to post your food logs to the forum, share them with your team leader, and continue to share your tasty primal recipes with each other.  Great job, everyone!  We are looking forward to hearing all of your success stories in less that 5 weeks from today.

Here is another recipe to try: Noodle-free lasagna
