Module Three

IT'S SUPERSTAR TIME!

This week, we're focusing on preparing for our four week Diet Implementation challenge that starts in next week's module...

SUPERSTAR MISSION #1: YOUR 4 WEEK "DIET IMPLEMENTATION challenge" STARTS THE MORNING OF MONDAY, FEBRUARY 20TH

Write down this date in your planner. This is when we're going to implement the diet guidelines together!

SUPERSTAR MISSION #2: MAKE YOUR MEAL PLAN FOR NEXT WEEK's 4 week "diet implementation challenge."

Follow the instructions provided throughout the worksheets.

SUPERSTAR MISSION #3: PRACTICE TWO MEAL PREPPING TECHNIQUES

Chose any two techniques from Lesson Four in the module to practice this week so you're more prepared for the Implementation Challenge next week.

SUPERSTAR MISSION #4: COOK THREE PLANT-BASED DINNERS THIS WEEK

It's important you have a few dinners under your belt you'll know you enjoy during the challenge. Use this week to cook three dinners from your meal plan. This way, they'll be easier to cook next week. And, you'll better know if and how much you like them in case you need to make any alterations.

BONUS superstar mission #5: complete a 5 day "healthy lifestyle log"

The Healthy Lifestyle Log is to help you identify your current eating (and exercise) patterns. Here's how to do it.... simply write down everything you eat for 5 days in a row. You do not have to write down how much you ate, the size, nor do you have to weigh the food. Just simply write down the ingredients in everything you eat.

According to the evidence, most people end up eating healthier just by completing a Healthy Lifestyle Log because it forces them to be accountable to themselves. If you have the option to eat chocolate cake for example, you may be less likely to eat it because you know you have to write it down later. Or, if you know you have to show your Healthy Lifestyle Log to your Nutritionist, you may eat better because you have to complete it.

That being said, you can use this activity to help you eat healthier or, to see where your diet currently is, consciously not changing what you eat (for a few days at least) and writing the entire truth down.

There's seven days in the template. I encourage you to complete all seven, but in the very least complete five days in a row. Once you've completed it, share your "ahas" in the Facebook group. Specifically, what new or surprising thing did you learn about your diet AND what's one thing you know you can improve on after having done this exercise?
