    Celebrate the VEGGIE eaters!

    Wow everyone, what a challenge that was! I think we're all a little amazed how poorly we judged our veggie intake in the past. From Induction to Maintenance we had a wide spectrum of VEGGIE eaters in this challenge!

    Everyone did a terrific job!

    I think the lessons learned are invaluable to us all. VEGGIES are good for you, VEGGIES are yummy, VEGGIES are filling, eating the proper amount of VEGGIES each day helps keep us in the proper range for all foods eaten, no one ever became overweight from eating VEGGIES and furthermore, Dr. Atkins was right, VEGGIES are an important part of our diet.

    Please congratulate the Cauliflower-Head winners!

      i went into this challenge a bit hesitant. not just for "doing my thing" as far as challenge starter goes but hadn't ever logged just the veggies to see where i stood with them. what a great challenge!

          I thought this was an AWESOME challenge--it really helped me open my eyes to how many carbs of veggies I should be eating each day, and that one week got me back in the swing of eating veggies I haven't had in a while, like pumpkin and squash.

          Thanks, ladies, for hosting this challenge! I hope to see another one like it in the future.

            Congratulations to all! Thank you for the honorable mention. I am very humbled to say the least. It certainly made me realize just how wholesome and healthy veggies are for us. And, what a wider selection of veggie are to be had.

            You all did a great job, and it wasn't easy. But, it was tasty, and you did it!

            Thanks Silly and Jimmie... it was fun!

              I wish I had my cauliflower head to display too, but the challenge was just awesome anyways.

                  Thanks Mrs Jimmie and Sillygirl for the veggie challenge. I learned more in that week on veggies than I did the previous year. It was an eye opening experience to say the least. I look forward to the next one. BTW, I lost 2.5 pounds and I had been in a rut. Thanks again to both of you special ladies. I am on the right path again because of one challenge.
