FFFC #Challenge #24: No fried foods

This week’s challenge is no fried foods Monday – Friday.

That means no french fries, fried chicken, fried zucchini, fried mushrooms or anything cooked in high heat with batter in any kind of oil such as olive oil, sunflower oil, peanut oil, canola oil, Crisco, etc.

Your arteries will thank us. You can have food that is steamed, broiled, poached, or baked. Refrain from battering the food or overcooking vegetables which saps all of the healthy nutrients out of them. Continue with your regular training routine and get ready to be amazed at the progress just 5 days will give you.

Does this challenge seem well…challenging? Get creative and find ways to replace the food item you may normally eat fried. You will be surprised how your taste buds easily adjust.

Do we really need to go into all of the reasons why you should avoid fried foods? If you would like to read more go to this blog for some helpful information.
