Fiber Friend Giveaway
By Laurie | March 23, 2009
What do you know about fiber? Are you getting enough? How much fiber does one need to consume each day to get the recommended daily amount?
Some fad diets even cut fiber completely out. That’s not healthy! In my quest to try learn how to do things the right way, I participated in the Fiber Friend Faceoff sponsored by Fiber One. This week the game tests your knowledge of foods that would contain up to the 25 grams recommended each day. The trick is choosing well-balanced foods that provide fiber and other important nutrients. These include whole grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes and nuts. In future weeks you will continue to face off against an opponent to help learn about the additional health benefits of fiber.
How would you do in the challenge? Head over to the Fiber Friend Faceoff to find out. You get to create your own character to participate in the game show, and there are coupons for the Fiber One product of the week upon completion. You can play every day through April 11.
You can also win some fabulous prizes just for entering:
Grand Prize: Luxury Spa Trip in Arizona
Weekly Prizes: Flip Video™ camcorders
Daily Prizes: $50 Cash Cards
 |
I’ll even start the winning by giving away THREE Fiber Friend Gift Baskets! You will receive a VIP coupon to try a complimentary 4-pack of Fiber One yogurt, a nutrition journal, water bottle, pedometer with calorie counter, and a kitchen scale.
I am not a big yogurt fan, but I actually really enjoyed the Fiber One peach version. It’s not grainy, and the portion is slightly smaller than other 8oz containers that seem like too much. |
To enter: Leave a comment on this post telling me your favorite fiber friendly food for one entry. You can earn an additional entry by following me on Twitter and sending out the following message: @laurie_pooh is giving away 3 Fiber Friend Gift Baskets! Click here to enter and win: http://tinyurl.com/fiberfriend Please RT! (Let me know in the comments that you did this so that I can verify).
The giveaway will end on Tuesday, March 31 at noon CST. The winners will be selected randomly from all of the entries received and announced the first week in April. Please remember to comment using your real name and e-mail address so that I can pass them along to the sponsor who will send you your prize. Good Luck and have fun!
Edit: Congratulations to Donna, Carol, Jessica, Mary D. and Denice! They are the winners of the Fiber Friend Gift Baskets. Each has been sent an e-mail, and have 48 hours to respond with their mailing address. If they do not, another winner will be drawn. Thanks to all that participated. I hope you will continue to have fun with the Fiber Friend Challenge!

Posted by: Dorothy StahlneckerWe eat lots of fresh vegetables and beans.
Posted by: Marcia GossMy favorite fiber friendly food is actually one already made by the sponsor! I love the Fiber One Bars – Oats and Chocolate are my favorite and I usually have one each day around 3:30 or 4:00 as a quick pick me up to tame my hunger before dinner! I recently had a baby (okay, it has already been four months, but the “baby weight” isn’t melting off too quickly yet!) I would love to win this giveaway, since I have not tried their new yogurt (and I frequently have yogurt for breakfast!) I would get a lot of use out of the kitchen scale since I really need to start weighing my portions if I am going to get this body back into some semblance of shape! Thanks for the timely giveaway!
