Jeans Challenge Finale

Congratulations to all the participants in the Jeans Challenge.  All most all the participants dropped one Jeans size and several dropped two!  It has been a great time of sharing and mutual support, and focusing on our habits instead of the numbers has been a rewarding way to focus on what is important. We look forward to the next Jeans Challenge in February or March of 2012.

Saturday we had a great potluck and awarded prizes to the winners. The recipes were that were shared were great and showed how healthy food can taste good too.

 

Becky had perfect scores on both attendance and food journalling, and great scores on her individual habits and home work assignments.  She won a $150 gift card to Nordstroms for some new jeans.

Diana and Kristen were just a few points apart and each received a gift card for a one-hour massage from Bruce Corns (who has great hands according to another lady in attendance!).

And Carolyn won a Murad Skin Care line!

Jennifer received flowers from Diana!  We are looking forward to the next time already!

Place yam, eggs, canned pumpkin, and vanilla together. In another bowl mix all dry ingredients: oat flour, protein powder, cinnamon and nutmeg (not the walnuts).

Protein Packed Pizza

Protein packed pizza

 

16oz ground turkey

12oz or 4 cups of oatmeal

2 tsp of ground flax meal

4 tsp baking powder

 

Makes about 7 patties

 

Preheat oven 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients together throughly ( I get better results when weighing my oatmeal. If too dry add one egg white to help the “dough” comes together ( this will slightly change the calories per crust but not much). When “dough” is well mixed separate mix with about 1/2 cup portions. Place patties on a cookie sheet and fatten them down until 1/2 inch thick about 2 per cookie sheet. Cook in oven about 2-5 min on each side or until turkey is cooked through. If cooking all at once please be mindful of not trying to flatten out the next ground on the hot cookie sheet! Let   Patties cool and freeze them with ziplock or Tupperware.

When ready to eat take them out of the freezer top them with desired toppings and bake in oven at 350 until the cheese(or cottage cheese) melts.
