Welcome!


I am so glad you've made it to the official blog of the Beit Bari (Healthy House) Challenge.  

It's last minute but the challenge will officially start on Monday March 3rd!  The good news is that the challenge is truly meant to be flexible, and ongoing, and you can start whenever.

So how does the Challenge work?  You can read the basics below or check out the About page.

1. 5 servings of fruits/vegetables a day - bonus points if all vegetables

2. 64 oz+ water daily

3. Limit alcohol *at your discretion - none/1 drink per day/1 night of drinking per week

4. Limit added sugars - packaged snacks/desserts/chips - focus on naturally sweet foods

5. Protein at every meal (eggs, tofu, beans, meat, seafood, nuts, etc)

6. Strength train/circuit 2x/week (options: lift weights, crossfit, Jillian or other video tape)

7. Cardio x3/week 

8. Do something to make you smile everyday

Check back daily for advice to implement each of these steps in the challenge.
