FOOD LOGS.....


It's been great reading everyones food journals. 
 We appreciate your honesty....that is the first step to making changes! 
Don't stress it if your diet isn't perfect...if it were,
 we wouldn't be doing the challenge...
we would all be top competitiors at the games...
and we would all look like Camille Leblanc Bazinet and Rich Froning....
did I miss anything?
Life is about progressing.   Change doesn't happen overnight. 
I took 38 years to put my weight on...
it took me almost 2 years to take it off and keep it off.

Take joy in your journey and enjoy each success along the way.

I'm not sure where else to post this, but here is a recipe our apartment has greatly enjoyed:

Green Pork Chili
40 oz. Pork (cubed)
6 tsp Olive Oil
5 cups Chicken Broth (1 very large can)
1 onion (chopped)
2 Jalapeno peppers
3-4 tsp. Garlic
1 cup Cilantro
1/2 cup dry beans (before soaking)
(we are still figuring out the best type of bean to use)
27 oz. Tomatillos (chopped)

Soak the beans.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, toss the Onions, Tomatillos, Jalapeños, and Garlic with 3 tsp. Olive Oil and spread on a baking sheet. Roast until soft (about 20 minutes), stirring twice. In a large Dutch oven, add the remaining oil and brown the cubed Pork in batches. When browned, add it back to the pot with the roasted vegetables and add the Chicken Broth and the beans. Cook the chili until tender, ~90 minutes. Garnish with minced Cilantro and serve with warm Flour Tortillas.

This makes a pretty big pot that feeds four college guys (with moderate appetites).
