I know that the recipe for the pesto chickens says 2 servings. I have been splitting all the ingredients into two meals except for the pita pocket. I for some reason failed to see that I only get half of the pita pocket per meal. I messed up. Putting this out here just in case anyone else on meal plan 1 did what I did. blehhh
SERVINGS: 2
INGREDIENTS
• 6 oz chicken breast (cooked, shredded)
• 2 tbsp plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1 tbsp basil pesto
• ½ cup roasted red bell pepper strips
(jarred or homemade)
• 1 cup baby spinach
• 1 whole-grain pita pocket
• Salt and pepper to tastePage 6: doing things a little differently this time around. And for the first time ever, we aren’t having you upload Before/After photos in order to qualify for the post-Challenge prizes.

If you haven’t joined the Facebook Community yet, you can do that here.I had to go back and check myself. I found this on page 33 of ebook:
As a general rule, measure all meat,
potatoes, rice and pasta (whole wheat,
of course) cooked. Measure oatmeal dry.It is a good idea to take photos for yourself, though. And at the end to see the progress that you’ve made.
Page 6 and 7 in ebook explains no photos for this challenge. You can do progress photos for yourself. Which is a good idea.
OOPS! Sorry, I just read recipe thoroughly. Spinach is not cooked. I wish I could delete this post…sorry!
Not just videos. Also if I’m in the grocery store and I’m looking at my meal plan then want to go to the recipes or exchange list… I’m wondering if there’s a way to go from page to page without scrolling through ebook. if not that’s fine. Just thought I’d check to see if there was a way.
Thank you for these challenges. The meal plans, the workouts and all the support really helps me stay focused and committed to trying my best to live a healthy lifestyle!
Good questions that I’m sure Nicole’s team will address. In my opinion, it takes a long time to build significant muscle. At least that’s my case. The challenge helped me in that I picked up heavier weights than what I normally lift. I feel stronger. I lost pounds and inches with the meal plan I followed, yet felt so energized and strong at each workout.
I am thinking the blueberries have carbs. 100 grams has 14grams on my app. Greek yogurt has about 6 grams.
Also, I was wondering if you could make it without the pumpkin? It shows pumpkin as a fruit on the exchange list. Can you eat a whole serving or half a serving of fruit as a substitute with each meal?
Good question! I also need help because I’d like to figure out my go to breakfast of just egg whites and oatmeal. How many eggs and how much fruit can I sub.
It is expensive, but in my opinion, it tastes so good drizzled over my egg whites or oatmeal. I have read the omega 3’s help with hormonal balance, heart, brain, and skin.
