  • Veggie Challenge Winners

    As always, this challenge allows us to focus on the quantity of vegetables we all should eat every day. And to our good fortune, we can use full fat flavors to enhance them. Vegetables are low in carbs, chock full of vitamins and antioxidants, they fill us up and taste delicious.
    This group did a marvelous job with terrific discussions, hints and recipes.
    Everyone who completed and reported all 5 days made their quota of vegetables every single day.
    I think we all learned the proper amount of veggies to eat daily, no matter what phase of Atkins we are on.
    Thanks for making this a really great challenge!

    YIPPEE FOR US! did i count right? are there 26 of us that completed our veggie mission?

    i loved being called a "veggieteer".

    i do hope the ones that didn't quite make it, learned some valuable information . the part of the challenge i really liked the best was having to try a new veggie.

    THANKS FOR RUNNING THE CHALLENGE, SILLY! IT WAS GREAT!

              I loved that challenge, it really got me thinking about veg. I ate Kohlrabi for the first time and discovered cualiflower fried rice - which IMO is even nicer than real rice and to which I am now completely addicted.

              Thanks for organising it!!

                      To all of us!!!

                      Silly,
                      I LOVED this challenge! Even my husband said it seemed "fun" for me, trying new veggies and new recipes with them. I have both my crispers in the fridge filled with veggies now! And this challenge has helped me in my decision of whether to stay on extended induction of OWL, rung 1-VEGGIES. I'm moving on to Rung 1 Veggies! I'm going to stay there until Thanksgiving and depending on how I'm doing move onto the next rung. Anyway thanks so much for this great challenge!
                      xoxo

                          CONGRATULATIONS to everyone who participated and ate more veggies!!!

                          Thanks so much Silly! This was a fantastic challenge. I loved eating so many veggies and didn't realize how few I was eating before. I lost 2.6 pounds this week and I know it was from all the veggies. They kept me full and kept my calories down.
