Maintain A Healthy Lifestyle with #CarlsCrew #CommitToFit Challenge #Giveaway

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to do a fun and healthy #CommitToFit campaign with Subway Canada as part of #CarlsCrew.

It was 6 weeks of challenges, some that were pretty tough I might add; however, it helped me to increase numerous healthy habits to my daily routine, and my family’s too!

If you’ve followed me on Instagram, you will have noticed that I am doing the campaign again! Woohoo!

The whole crew has been following this handy dandy chart to assist us with our challenge, it’s quite handy:

The only item I missed were the squats (probably because I don’t like them too much). Have no fear, I’m gonna rock it these final 2 weeks, how about you? You can also join up to receive emails about the challenges on the Subway Canada Facebook page.

This round of CarlsCrew challenges is a quick one though, it’s only 4 weeks long and we are already halfway through!

Last year I was honoured to meet the official real-deal Carl, the great role model leading the Carls Crew. He came to Winnipeg, so now that I’ve met him, I need to make him proud! Carl’s weekly emails are motivating and I love that he infuses his own personal experiences every time.

As with any type of physical activity, make sure you are doing what you can for your body type etc, and consult with your health professional as necessary.

Are you busy on September 29 at 8pm (EST)?

I hope not, because there will be a fun Twitter Party hosted by @SubwayCanada and you can win fabulous prizes! All you have to do is follow the #CarlsCrew hashtag at that time and you’ll be good to go!

That’s not all, I have an amazing giveaway to share with you! I’ll be checkin with ya this week to see how you’re doing on the challenges and give you additional opportunities to win, so stay focused folks.

GIVEAWAY TIME!

Open to Canucks of course! Ends Oct 12/15 Good luck all!

  1. We maintain a healthy lifestyle by keeping active, even in winter. Keeping a wide warily or fruits and vegetables available and trying to avoid chips and pop

  2. We try to get a goods nights sleep, avoid eating takeout, and get outside to exercise at least four times a week.

  3. we try to eat healthy i incorportae veggies into every meal, we drink tons of water and get active as a family by taking walks or playing sports together

  4. We make sure there is some sort of vegetable with every meal (whether it be in the dish or on the side), go for daily walks, and also encourage eachother to drink 8 glasses of water every day!!! I’m looking forward to winter so we can get out in the snow and play! Building snow men, snow forts, and ice skating are our faves!

  5. My kids know I do not stock up on junk food, if friends are coming over we run out & pick up treats. The rule is if, you want it, we will go out and get it. Works out great, the kids don’t want to go grocery shopping so they eat healthy from what is in the house! I don’t buy pop, we have juice,milk & water. Also I bake all muffins & cookies and cut the sugar at least in half as well as add berries or nuts!

  6. We make sure we head out at least once a day for some fresh air and to get some exercise. WE also try to eat the rainbow. We drink lots and lots of water!

  7. Good morning 🙂 We try to stay healthy by eating tons of fruit(lots of smoothies too), fair share of veggies, and by being active in sports and at the gym. Thanks!

  8. We get outside and active for at least 30 minutes a day, only drink water with our meals and limit our tv time!

  9. Go for a walk with the dogs first thing in the morning, start the day with a healthy breakfast, no snacking after dinner.

  10. I try to use organics in my cooking as much as possible, I cook from scratch and I try to move more, though that’s the hardest one to do…

  11. Hydrate + Exercise + Adequate Sleep + Moisturize skin = Healthy in Mind/Body/Spirit.

  12. We encourage each other to snack healthy by experimenting with healthy recipes, we take fitness classes together, and we try to avoid bringing junk food into the house.

  13. Keep junk food out if the house, if it’s not there, you won’t be tempted to eat it. Choose alternative beverages to soda. And finally, stick ton te perimeter of the grocery store, that’s where the fresh produce, meats, dairy, and grains are.

  14. things we do to have a healthy lifestyle;exercise together (walking, hiking, biking)
    cooking meals at home: menu planning
    date nights

  15. Home-cooked healthy meals, walking the dogs and taking vitamins are among the things we do in our home.

  16. We drink lots of water, cook from scratch whenever possible and spend time every day doing activities we enjoy be it going to the park, listening to music or cuddling up for a movie.

  17. Eat a good balance of fruits and veggies, try not to eat out very often, maybe once a month, and drink lots of water.

  18. 1. Drink lots of water
    2. cook/purchase lots of fresh vegetables and fruits instead of junk or processed foods
    3. take daily walks

  19. My three tips are:

    -Make physical activity fun – ride bikes, go skiing, jump on a trampoline. Fun activities make exercise easy
    -Do not keep sweet treats in the house. You will eat far less junk if you have to go out to buy it when you have a craving.
    -Keep tons of fruit and veggies on hand

  20. In my household we can increase the fruits and veggies in our diet, exercise daily (even just walking for 20mins. a day) and limit the amount of sugar in our diet by reducing sweets.

  21. Make healthy eating a group effort so everyone encourages everyone else, have plenty of healthy food options so it doesn’t get boring, and add flavor and sweetness to water by using fruit!

  22. I cut up alot of veggies every week as easy to go and grab snacks that are healthy s well as package bulk items in the cupboards.
    lots of water
    I grill alot of our foods to eliminate the use of fats

  23. Ditch the soda and drink water or tea, no more take out and junk food, stock up on lots of fresh veggies and fruits and make sure to get exercise in, every little bit helps!!

  24. Making my meals, not eating out or eating boxed processed foods.
    Exercise and doing activities
    drinking lots of water

  25. We eat FRESH!! Fresh is best! Lots of fruits and vegetables. No packaged foods as they contain so much sugar and sodium. We as a family try to get outdoors often and go for walk and stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.

  26. We drink a lot of water, I cook from scratch using fresh produce and meat (very little processed anything) and we get outside all year even if its just for a quick 15 min walk when its really cold.

  27. We don’t have a car so we do a LOT of walking. I rarely buy fruit juices & never buy soda, energy drinks, chocolate milk etc. I include veggies in every school lunch & our dinner’s at home.

  28. I maintain a healthy lifestyle by serving fresh or frozen(depending on season) fruits and vegetables at every meal. Water is our choice of drink in this household. I also encourage family to get outside and walk daily.

  29. We drink water not soda/pop, we mainly eat vegetarian, and I always read the ingredients lists, I don’t know the ingredients I don’t buy
