24 Day Challenge Lunch Ideas

Here are some ideas for lunch that work well 

all through the 24 Day Challenge:

• 2 hard boiled eggs plus salad and a piece of fruit
• Sliced grilled chicken (can be left over from the night before) with 1 tablespoon hummus and raw veggies (peppers, celery, cucumber, etc.)
• Grilled chicken caesar salad (without dressing, croutons or cheese) – works well in a restaurant
• Turkey burger (no ketchup) with steamed broccoli – works well in a restaurant
• Grilled 4 ounce salmon filet with steamed asparagus – works well in a restaurant
• 2 ounces of Tofu Lin cut into chunks in a large salad with mixed veggies
• 4 ounces Tilapia with steamed summer squash and zucchini
• Scoop of our favorite tuna/egg salad over romaine lettuce

 What to do After You Finish the  24 Day 

Challenge  for Continued Loss and 

Maintenance

You can use all of the above or try my standby go to solutions:

• Advocare Meal Replacement Bar  – I keep a box at work, and always have one in the car.  It is my insurance policy so that I don’t make a poor choice if in a pinch.  To be honest, I love them, and eat many days since then I don’t have to prepare or think about food during the day.

• Advocare Meal Replacement Shake mixed with frozen fruit in the blender*

* vanilla shake, 9 ounces water and frozen mixed berries or raspberries has maximum fiber and great flavor

Healthy Family Grocery List

Families that want to eat healthier need a healthy foods grocery list. It's easier to resist  the  unhealthy snacks, and poor choices if you don't put these foods into your shopping cart.

1. • 1
     Fruits and vegetables are very healthy, so the majority of your list should be of the fruits and vegetables that your family likes or will be willing to try. 

     Some of our family favorites are: 

      blueberries

     bananas

     pink lady apples

     oranges

      pineapples

      peaches 

     purple and green grapes

      kiwi

      colored pepper

      broccoli

      asparagus

      cabbage

      lettuce

      tomatoes 

     cucumbers

     
     

     Keep in mind that you want a large variety of fruits and vegetables in varying colors to ensure nutrients. Buy organic if you can; if not, scrub them with a veggie brush before consuming and rinse well.

     For protein sources

     buy eggs -- brown or white as they are the same nutritionally

     lean cheese at the deli

     lean cooked ham, turkey and chickens to roast

     Nuts

     Natural Peanut Butters

     
     

      Minimize red meat, but buy it as lean as possible if you include it once or twice a week.

     Starches and Complex Carbohydrates

     When buying breads, rice and pastas lean towards the  whole grains  instead of white.

     Popcorn is a healthy grain and kids usually love it. 

     Potatoes are nutritious, but can add weight, so eat in moderation.

     THE DO NOT BUY OR AVOID LIST

      I want to caution you to avoid the  pre-prepared meals at all costs.    Shop the outer aisles of the grocery store and cook as they did in the old days.  For the families on the go-- Use the Crock Pot! 

     The more control you have over what you put in your body, and your families the healthier your family will be. Healthy grocery shopping is the first step. When you know what to put into your cart and what to leave on the shelves you will achieve your families goals.
