    There must have been something wrong with that link. It hasn’t worked for me since the beginning, but I just redownloaded the EBOOK, and now it just worked for me.

    Just tried it again and that one still doesn’t work. All other links to exercises work for me. Just not that one.

    Seeing bacon tomato and mayo reminded me that the BLT in one of the past challenges was my favorite!! Thanks for the reminder! I’m gonna see about creating it with the exchange list!!!

    What Naomi said, but I take it one step further, and I make myself a mini book for my workouts. so to do this, I print out 3 pages of all of the workouts (Phase 1, weeks 1-3 and Phase 2, weeks 1-3), I insert a a blank sheet for the off days, and then I write the date on each page. (I’m OCD so I print labels LOL) The cover is the workout calendar. I love having a little mini-workout tracker book that I take with me to the gym that I can write my weights on. (I say mini because when I print it, I print 2 per page, so it is half the size.)

    I would post a picture, but I’m at work and my book is at home 🙂

    PLUS…I use the Accountability Tracker in the eBook, which is awesome!!!

    Yep! Except for me, on my iphone, the “< files” is in the top left corner

    You have to make sure you are opening the File you saved on your phone, and that you’re not opening the shortcut that you saved on your phone….if that makes sense. If you create the shortcut and put it on your home screen, and you open that one, it won’t take you back to where you were. You have to go into your files and open the ebook there. I haven’t been able to figure out how to save the file to my homescreen on my new iphone. So I just go into my files to open it.

    Save it to the files on your phone, and access it from there instead of the Internet link.

    Sorry I didn’t see your reply earlier. But yes. I did the math with 1 cup of yogurt and if 1 cup of blueberries is 150g, then that is correct 🙂

    When I did the math, 8 oz nonfat Greek yogurt, 150g blueberries and one egg bite, I get
    366 calories
    35 g protein
    33 g carbs
    10 g fat

    Goal for one meal on Meal Plan 2 is
    359 calories
    32 g protein
    33 g carbs
    11 g fat

    I used Kirkland Nonfat plain Greek Yogurt.
    It is right on the money!!! ENJOY!

    Cathleen, just a clarification that the recipe says to “pour egg mixture over top“ (meaning over turkey mixture) “until cups are almost full” 🙂

    I downloaded the ebook immediately when it was available… and training block 1 high days were always Monday & Friday and training block 2 high days were always Monday & Thursday. I’m thinking you must have looked at training block 2 by accident? But you got this!!! Tomorrows workout is gonna be amazing!!!

    I have found that even the ones with the checkmark don’t match the label that I have in my hands! So you just have to be really careful. Once you have checked and verified, make a note of which ones to use.

    I cook my potatoes plain. I just poke holes and bake them. Or you can make them in an instant pot and use only water.

    You can use any seasonings, but keep in mind, that some seasonings do contain calories! If you use pepper, onion powder, garlic powder….you can use as much as you want! Or the Mrs Dash products…or Flavor God. You just have to be careful. I have a delicious honey chipotle seasoning, but it has 5 calories per 5 grams (or something like that)…I actually weigh it and track it when I use it.

    When I made the casserole, when I was all done, I weighed the entire batch, and divided it by 10. (Mine turned out to be 8 oz servings) I’m also OCD, so I added up all of my ingredients and calculated the macros…and for 1 serving, it was pretty darn close to the challenge macros. +/- 2 here and there

    I was just thinking… you could totally do this on the stovetop in 1 pot. brown the hamburger and onions at the same time, in a 6 qt pot.. add the tomatoes and tomato soup, and seasonings.. Then add the cabbage and simmer until the cabbage is soft… I would still cook the rice separate, and then just add it at the end.

    Sure! Just do what I did and then combine everything into the pot you are cooking the tomato sauce in! And cook for a little bit to combibe it all. I did everything on the stovetop… I just stuck it all in the roaster when I was done to heat it through

    It won’t let me edit. I said 8 leafs…but the recipe is actually 10 leafs. so you could do around 330 grams of cabbage! SOrRY!

    According to google, one large leaf is approx 33 grams, so I weighed out about 300 grams of cabbage and only cooked that. If you are doing rolls, I would just cook 10 leafs

    Ok! I guess seeing those casings grossed me out and every time I patted them dry, more were visible. Lol

    You can ripen bananas in the microwave or in the oven
