RESULTS!!
So Ladies here it is the end of the challenge!! This 12 weeks has flown by! IT has been great fun and the ‘Diet 101 – Intermediate’ is coming soon so watch this space!!
This has been a great challenge, and a very educational one too, I did not realise how hard some of the challenges would be. I still stick rigidly to the salt and fibre that’s for sure.
We all made a fantastic effort and we all lost tons of weight!!! Between us we lost 120.5 pounds! I dare you all to try and pick that up at the gym the next time that you are there. We are ALL winners in this challenge and I was reluctant to announce winners and losers because that makes the people who didn’t win think that they did not gain something. No one on this challenge has anything to defeatist about what they have achieved, even if you lost a pound it is a pound lost and we are all the better for being more conscious about our weight and we all stuck to something and stuck with it too!! 12 weeks is a long time to stay dedicated to a project so EVERYONE is a winner.
However……………….There were a few who do need a mention!
In third place we have JDS17! She scored an amazing 565 points and lost an incredible 15lb!! way to go JDS!
In Second place we have Christalrae, this is an amazing achievement considering that she was a late starter to the challenge. She scored in with 576 points and an amazing 9lb lost! This is a great weight loss considering its harder when you have less to lose! Well done Christal!
And in first place, we have the clear winner of this challenge, she is dedication personified its Social work Sarah! She has consistently won the challenges and stayed focused. She managed an AMAZING 661 points and lost an astounding 38lb!! That’s a small child she has managed to shift! Sarah we take our hats off to you!
Okay this is the saddest and simplest recipe:
Cheese Quesadella
1 La Tortilla Factory Whole Wheat Low-Carb Tortilla (8 grams of fiber)
1/4 of Kraft Freshly grated Parmasan Cheese
you just put the cheese on the tortilla and fold it in half and brown on both sides in a fry pan until the cheese is melted. I then cut it in half or 4 wedges. Its an easy snack and only 90 calories.
