#BFHolidayChallenge Week 4 - Sponsored by Click Espresso Protein!

Ok so I lied about something.

Well,  not really lied. I accidentally didn't tell the truth. (Isn't that the same thing.)

You see, I said last week's challenge was the most challenging for me and that's just not true. This week's challenge is far harder. That's why this week I'm going to blog about doing the challenge right along with you, Keeps me honest!

But first...

This Week's Prize Sponsor

CLICK! If you've never tried CLICK Espresso Protein Powder, you don't know what you've been missing! Seriously. (Well unless you hate coffee, in which case...yeah.) The folks at CLICK have made a rich, smooth coffee-based protein powder that packs lots of vitamins and minerals, along with 15g of protein per serving (making it the perfect post-workout recovery snack). It comes in Mocha (my favorite), Mocha Decaf, Vanilla Latte (not decaf) and Caramel (also not decaf). Aside from the Mocha Decaf, the others have the amount of caffeine equivalent to a triple shot of espresso.

I love the stuff. I love the stuff so much I have a whole selection of recipes I call Click Frapps. Heck, I love the stuff so much I wrote an e-recipe book for them called 50 Ways to CLICK! (You can download for free by the way.) You can check CLICK out for yourself at www.drinkclick.com.

This Week's Challenge

Ok so back to this being a challenging challenge for me. For some of you this will be easy. For me this has ALWAYS been hard.

This week, CLICK Espresso Protein challenges you to:

Get all of your vitamin doses, every day this week.

Oy. I mean...yay! For those who take the challenge - and report back at the end of the week - you will be entered to win one of THREE prize packs from CLICK, which includes a canister in the flavor of your choice AND some stylish CLICK swag.

Some Questions I imagine you have:

• "Nik, can you tell me what vitamins I should be taking?" No. That's both wrong and illegal (as I'm not a physician or a registered dietician. BUT I can tell you what the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) recommends for RNY, Lap-Band, the Sleeve and the Duodenal Switch (DS). From there, you'd need to consult your surgeon or RD if you don't already know what you should be taking.
• "Every dose, Nik? Really?" As I've said in all the past challenges, do your best. As long as you are accountable it counts, so simply reporting back (whether you are successful or not) will get you entered. But I encourage you to pay attention to any roadblocks you experience in doing any of these challenges. Identifying them will help you in the long run.
• "I'm joining in late, can I still participate?" Absolutely. But once you accept the challenge you have to do your best to meet the challenge AND you have to report back in order to enter to win the prize. I will post here on the blog starting on Saturday, December 20 asking you to report back. You'll have until 11:59 p.m. EST  Sunday, December, 21 to enter.

If you have other questions leave them in the comments. Also (just for my curiosity) leave in the comments: ARE YOU IN???
