I’m so excited for the Second Annual Passover Challenge.

Last year was a blast! O.K, fine maybe blast is not the right word- but Team Passover Challenge reported the following benefits:

  • Weight Loss.
  • Better Sleep.
  • More Energy.
  • Improvement in Skin.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE JEWISH TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS CHALLENGE!

Many thousands of years ago, the Jews fled Egypt, they did not have time for their bread to rise – blah, blah, blah for 8 days once a year, Jewish people only eat unleavened bread – or something called Matzo.

The challenge is basically this- instead of replacing bread with Matzo (and horrible oil filled baked goods)- scrap all bread products for 8 days! Your bowels will thank you. For 8 days (Jew or not) let’s put the toaster away, seal up the rice, leave the potatoes in the crisper and eat lots of fruit, veggies and lean proteins!images

THE PASSOVER CHALLENGE  RULES

  • No white stuff (bread, rice, potatoes, pasta)
  • No Brown stuff (yup even the whole wheat bread, brown rice and whole wheat pastas are out)
  • Stick to Lean proteins like eggs, fish, chicken, lean beef, turkey and lean pork (for those that eat it)
  • Fill up on vegetables, low fat dairy products and fresh fruits!
  • Try as best as you can to avoid anything processed – if you have to open a box to eat it- avoid it.

I’m not going to lie- it’s a tough challenge. One you should be mentally prepared for if your going to take it on. But it’s only 8 days! You have your whole life to eat bread, pasta and potatoes. For 8 days, give your body a break! It will thank you – that I can promise!

We’ll start on March 30th and end on April 7th. Let me know if you want in!!!!
