Take out Engine 2, 28-Day Challenge Thie February!

What in the world is Engine 2?

Engine 2 is a plan of action for following — and sticking to — a heart-healthy, mind-healthy, body-healthy, taste-bud-tempting Plant-Strong™ lifestyle, created by former firefighter, Rip Esselstyn.

When you follow the Engine 2 Diet, you adopt a whole food, nutrient-dense, plant-strong way of eating. This means you eat a vast variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds.

Revvvvvvv up your engine and pick your path:

Week Three: No extracted oils. By the end of Week 3 you’ve advanced to Firefighter!

Week Four: Keep up another week of this Plant-Strong diet!

FIREFIGHTER

This path is for you if you are ready to go all in from the start!

Consider finding an E2 “buddy” to support each other through the 28 Days

• Rip suggests finding a “buddy” that you do not know yet…for example, at future E2 Meet-Ups, ask the person sitting next to you!

Dig deep and track down your numbers!

• One of the most effective ways to experience the E2 Challenge is to know you numbers before and after the 28 days:
  • Cholesterol –including LDL, HDL and total; triglycerides, blood glucose, blood pressure and body weight
• Consider getting these numbers checked before and after the 28 days OR dig deep and find labs from the recent past

Keep a detailed FOOD JOURNAL! This serves two purposes:

• It holds you accountable
• Comes in handy if you feel that you are not meeting your health goals

Our In-Store Events will include numerous Engine 2 Product and Recipe Demos throughout the month including 4 weekly classes to keep you on track:

Tuesday February   5th 6:30-8pm:  Plant-Strong Cooking Lesson & Lecture on Eliminating Dairy

Tuesday February 12th 6:30-8pm:  Plant-Strong Cooking Lesson & Lecture on Eliminating Meat
