REST DAY

"
In the spirit of October...here is a creepy video of real footage of Michael Jackson's ghost on Larry King Live. (Enlarge it in the lower right hand corner)

Our 2 week Zone challenge will starts tomorrow! We encourage everyone to get on board and give it a shot! This article makes it really easy to understand and get started. And we will help you with any questions you have. Give the Zone 2 weeks, to see what it can do for you. We are confident you will lean out and feel so much better once you are in "the zone". It is not as hard as you think. Most of the meals you already make can be turned into a Zone meal. The first 4-5 days may be a little rough as you detox off sugar and the refined carbs....but we promise it will be worth it! YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR 2 WEEKS! What do you have to lose? The trainer's will be doing this with you too. We want everyone to post how they are doing each day under comments so we can all be a support for each other. We are going to have a BBQ at the end of October for everyone who participates. If you don't want to start the Zone yet, at least get of all sugar and refined carbs for 2 weeks. You will feel a difference by cutting those out of your diet.
Post in comments tonight if you are on board!

If you have already started the Zone, post some of your favorite snacks and meals for all of those who are new and need some tips.

I am so busy so I don't have much time to cook, so these are my fall back meals because they are so easy. Dinner...well, that takes a little more effort. I'll post some meals later.

Make sure to print out the "snack" list from the zone site under "quick start guide" It makes snacks easy. Also- the Zone book has a larger list of Protein/carbs/fat per 1 block

P.S. Steel cut oatmeal is best for you. Harmon's in Orem sells it and is probably cheaper than Good Earth.
