Join me...




Hello everyone! Where does the time go?!
So I started school for the first time in 6 or so years. For those of you who asked, I went back to school to study nutrition. I have two nutrition classes right now, and one of them is a careers class that goes over all my options in the field, and what I need to do to complete it. Right now I am unsure what I want to do. I either want to work with children, a wellness center, or an obesity clinic. I will know more later.

So I was looking at Christie's blog, and she posted photos of the food she has gotten from ediets. I found it interesting to see what she is eating, and it got me thinking...wouldn't it be cool to see what everyone is eating? So I am asking all of you to share 3 days worth of meals on your blog by Friday. The rules are simple: Take 3 pictures a day, and on Friday post 9 pictures with descriptions of your meals. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. Including snacks is optional. I think it will also give us new ideas for new food plans. Sometimes we will eat things that others wouldn't have thought of, so if you want to participate let me know!!

PS.
I just went to my DVR to see what is recording this week, and everyone The Contender is BACK!! Tuesday Night on ESPN, and Biggest Loser starts Tuesday with a recap of the past 3 seasons losers weigh back in. Then the following week the new season starts. YIPEEEEEEE!!


* Update: I am thinking about extending the food photos to next Sunday, so that would give everyone a week. What do you all think? Also you can pick any 3 days you want, so if it's hard for you to stay on track on the weekends, and you want to only show your weekday food, then pick 3 week days! :D

Your classes sound so exciting! I've thought (more than once) that it might be a good career option for me too, since I think about food and fitness almost constantly. I'll live vicariously through you for awhile! =)

As for the food photos, that is a terrific idea. I'll give it a try, though I confess, starting on the weekend, it will be pretty telling that I don't make the healthiest possible choices on my days off! I do so much better with the structure of weekdays.

That's a good idea about the food...I will try to participate! Although, I'll feel kind of bizarra sitting in the food court taking a picture of my food with my camera phone! :-0

I'm so glad you mentioned that Biggest Looser is starting - we would have missed it! Thanks - that is a program that the whole family watches together

Hey girl, great news about going back to study! I am doing something similar. Exciting times!! I look forward to hearing how you go and which vein you choose to take.

Christie said...

tee hee :)

Well I'm a shoe in for this since I'm already doing it. I have more to share soon too :)

totegirl said...

I think I'm gonna join you with the pics. And I'm so freaking proud of you for going back to school. Seriously, you said it's what you wanted, and then? You did it! Hooray for strong, intelligent, beautiful women! Hooray for you!

Glam said...

Ooooh, I like this. I'll definitely post my meals. Neat idea!

Going back to school sounds really exciting. I hope you really enjoy it. I've thought about that as a career option lately as well. Must have something to do with the incessant blogging!

I can NOT wait for Biggest Loser. *Guilty Pleasure*!

I totally love that idea of sharing my food! I’m in! Only I won’t be able to take pictures until I get my camera back, which might be on Friday. I’m currently loaning it to someone.

Anne said...

Finaly! I can post a comment!!!
So proud of you for going back to school, can't wait to hear more about it.

Biggest Loser, can't wait!!!

I'm in for the food picks...do we post on THIS Friday?? I didn't get to the post until Today and we are on the road for part of the week but I will post my pics by Monday!!! Or maybe if you can do it again next week, I'll post next Friday. Let me know!

Good for you for going back to school and what an amazing field you picked! You will learn so much!!

Lily T said...

Good news! I can use my husband's camera, so I'm definately in!

Don't know if I am in on the food pics as I've been down with the tummy flu and only thing I can get down is a piece of toast or a banana.
Good for you on going back to school...I bet it'll be real interesting! I can't wait till mine starts soon.

Samantha said...

I want to try this challenge. I already started taking pictures of my lunch today. Someone asked me if I was making an ad. Weird. I just said "no, I am not" I didn't really want to explain the entire thing to him.

Hi there - just came across your blog today from elastic waist. I'm in Toronto and I went back to school for holistic nutrition in 2006, and it was the best thing I ever did! It was an amazing program. Are you doing a similar one? I love your idea of posting the pics of 3 days of food - will try to get on it and post mine! I'm glad I found your blog! :)

Lauren said...

what the heck, why not. Though it may be multiple crazy pictures per day.

John said...

I think it will be great to join this class as well.
