My Health Challenge

So 5 months after another devastating knee injury and a gained 15lbs as a result, I have started a health challenge with friends and any other people foolish enough to take part.

So what is the challenge?

For the next 3 months including Christmas and New Years there will be no beer, no junk or processed foods. The goal is to lose the 15lbs and probably 6% body fat I gained by not being able to train.

I was asked by 20 different people why I would do something like this and especially this time of year. Well for someone who preaches good healthy food, I usually don't make that same good food for myself. So my diet has been notoriously horrible containing mostly of pastas and lacking in proper amounts of proteins and vegetables. The result is fatigue and the inability to concentrate. So after months of not being able to train I am getting back into it with the help of everyone that is taking part in the challenge.

So what is the result going to be?

Loss of weight, more energy, more strength and forcing myself to create more ideas that will end up under recipes on the site (http://www.niagaracatering.ca/).

So be creative, toss out all that crappy junk and processed food. Have some fun in the kitchen and create healthy meals that will save you a lot more in the end.

Good Luck!
