Welcome to Week 3! Let’s get right into it: EAT If you eat 3 meals a day, that’s 21 meals a week. You are now tasked to use the plate method on 5 days for 10 out of your 21 meals in a week – this is still less than half but more than when you started! You can do it! If you haven’t tried it yet, prep either your veggie or lean protein portions 2-3 days at a time so it’s an easy add to your plate when it’s time to eat. Your second task is to drink 1/2 body weight in ounces of water and you need to do this for 5 days of the week. This will segue into the SLEEP category but the best way to do this is to not binge / chug a few times a day. Set a timer if you have to...Read more

Welcome to Week 2! Let’s get right to it: EAT You now have a week’s worth of proof that the plate method really isn’t that hard. Your first task this week is to incorporate the plate method for BOTH lunch AND dinner for 4 days of the week. You are working toward consistency day over day now and you can do it! Your second task is to again drink (a lot) water and you need to do this for 4 days of the week. This has actually been one of the tougher tasks for people so you are not alone. Besides all the extra steps you are getting by going to the bathroom so many more times than you are used to, you are now operating at a hydrated level. Pro tip: start your day with a glass of water to get a jump start on your total ounces! Don’t...Read more
