Remember, each week will begin a new challenge from a new company. If you decide to try the challenge, report back so you can be entered to win that week’s prize. You ready? Let’s go!
This Week's Sponsor
For our first week, our prize sponsor is Quest Protein. Quest is a long-time friend of the Foodie Nation and maker of Quest Bars, QuestChips and now Quest Protein Powder (review forthcoming). The folks at Quest encourage you to #CheatClean with a host of products that are high in protein, low in carbs with the flavors you crave. To check out all of Quest’s products, please visit their website! And while you’re at it, give them a like on Facebook and follow them on Twitter as well.
For trying out the Quest-Bariatric Foodie Holiday Challenge, three of you will win a box of Quest Bars!
The Challenge
This week Quest challenges you to:
Get at least 30 minutes of physical activity FIVE days this week!
Here are the details:
- You don’t have to go to the gym or do an exercise class, but you should do some physical activity that raises your heart rate for at least 30 minutes for five days out of the week. (NOTE: Provided you are able. Always go with your medical team's advice. If you have a condition making it dangerous to raise your heart rate - don't do it!)
- You get a BONUS entry into the contest if one of those days is Thursday, November 27 (Thanksgiving in the US).
- Whether you meet the challenge or not – if you are accountable it counts! That’s NOT an encouragement to slack off! Try your best. But even if you fall short, you can still check back and be eligible to win the prize.
How and When to Report Back
***NOTE: You don't have to do anything to "enter" or "sign up" for the challenge. Just give it a try and report back using the instructions below. You can report back on THIS blog post starting next Saturday.***
This Saturday, November 29, at 12:01 a.m. EST,I will add a form to this post I will make a new blog post where you can report back (sorry for the change folks, tech difficulties!). You have until 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, November 30 to report back. (So you'll have all day Saturday and all day Sunday to report back. That's not as much time as it sounds like! Plan accordingly. NO exceptions to the deadlines will be made.)
This Saturday, November 29, at 12:01 a.m. EST,
If you are signed up to receive the Bariatric Foodie e-mail newsletter (the sign-up form is directly above this post) you’ll get a reminder to report back. Otherwise I will be reminding people on Facebook and Twitter.
Again, there will be THREE winners, drawn from those who report back. I will announce the winners on Monday, December 1. (WARNING: If you are a winner you will have 48 hours to claim your prize or I have to redraw. I'll explain how to claim your prize when I announce the winners, but the important part to remember is to check back to see who won every week - it could be you!)
