HODA. HODA, I KNOW YOU’RE UP FOR A
GOOD CHALLENGEMENT.
GOOD CHALLENGEMENT. >> OKAY.

I’M GOING TO TRY IT.
I TRIED TO RECRUIT EVERYBODY AT
THE TABLE.
THE TABLE. CARSON I DON’T KNOW IF YOU
REMEMBER YESTERDAY, WE HAVE A
TAPE OF THIS.
YOU SAID THAT YOU WERE IN.
WE HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS.
>> ROLL THE TAPE.
>> SO WE THOUGHT, WHY DON’T WE
GO TO THE SOURCE.
WE HAVE JENNIFER LOPEZ ON THE
PHONE.

HI JENNIFER. >> HI HODA, HOW ARE YOU?
>> HEY, BABE.
OKAY.
OKAY. SO TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT
THIS CHALLENGE.
THIS CHALLENGE. IS IT COMPLETELY -- I MEAN, IS
IT DEFINITELY NO SUGAR, NO
CARBS?
CARBS? CAN WE HAVE COFFEE?
CAN WE HAVE BOOZE?
>> LISTEN, IT’S NO SUGAR, NO
CARBS.
CARBS. ANYTHING THAT HAS SUGAR AND
CARBS IN IT YOU CANNOT HAVE.
YOU CAN’T HAVE IT, AND YOU
REALIZE HOW MUCH STUFF HAS SUGAR
IN IT.
IN IT. YESTERDAY I WAS LIKE I’M GOING
TO HAVE A TURKEY BURGER WITH
LETTUCE AND ONIONS AND PICKLES,
AND THEY WERE LIKE NO PICKLES.
>> NO PICKSLESPICKLES?
>> IT HAS SO MUCH SUGAR IN IT.
>> ROKER’S MAD.
>> I KNOW, I KNOW.
I WAS LIKE OKAY.
NO PICKLES.
NO PICKLES. >> LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION,
YOU’VE BEEN ON THIS THING FOR A
FEW DAYS, HOW DID YOU FEEL AFTER
THE FIRST AND SECOND DAY?
>> FIRST AND SECOND DAY WHAT YOU
REALIZE IS THAT YOU’RE ADDICTED
TO SUGAR.
TO SUGAR. LIKE IT’S LIKE CRACK.
YOU CRAVE IT.
IT’S LIKE A DRUG, AND TO BE
HONEST, IT IS THE REASON WE HAVE
SO MUCH INFLAMMATION AND SO MANY
TOXINS IN OUR BODY, SO MY
TRAINER CHALLENGED US.
HE KNOWS I LOVE TO EAT COOKIES.
HE’S LIKE YOU’VE GOT TO SCALE
BACK.
BACK. JUST RESET YOUR BODY WHERE WE
START GETTING YOU ON HEALTHIER
CARBS AND HEALTHIER THINGS THAT
HAVE SUGAR IN IT.
SO NOW WHEN I GO BACK TO EATING
A FRUIT IN TEN DAYS, IT’S GOING
TO TASTE LIKE AN ICE CREAM
SUNDAE
SUNDAE SUNDAE.
SUNDAE. >> DID YOU HAVE A HEADACHE WHEN
YOU QUIT THE SUGAR?
>> YOU KNOW WHAT, I DID HAVE A
LITTLE BIT OF LIKE A SINUSY
THING HAPPEN.
THING HAPPEN. >> GOOD, THIS WILL BE FUN.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH. >> BUT JENNIFER --
>> YES?
>> YES? >> IT’S SAVANNAH, AND I’M
PROBABLY NOT GOING TO DO THIS
BUT --
BUT -- >> SAVANNAH YOU’RE OFFICIALLY
CHALLENGED, SAVANNAH.
CHALLENGED, SAVANNAH. >> NO, NO!

I BARELY HEARD THAT.
>> SHE JUST CHALLENGED YOU TOO.
>> I DIDN’T HEAR THAT, I’M
SORRY, J.LO.
SORRY, J.LO. >> CAN WE HAVE COFFEE, JENNIFER?
AND WHAT ABOUT TEQUILA WITH JUST
A SQUEEZE OF LIME JUICE?
>> BLACK COFFEE YOU CAN HAVE.
YOU CAN’T HAVE SUGAR IN IT.
AND MILK HAS A TON OF SUGAR.
>> WHAT ABOUT HALF AND HALF?
>> HALF AND HALF HAS NO SUGAR,
BUT IT HAS A LITTLE BIT OF CARB
IN IT.
IN IT. >> AND IT’S GOT SOME MILK IN IT.
>> SO HERE’S THE DEAL.
WE CAN HAVE OUR COFFEE.
WE CAN HAVE OUR TEQUILA.
SO CARSON, YOU’RE IN.
>> I HAVE ONE OTHER, JENNIFER,
I’M WORRIED ABOUT SUPER BOWL
SUNDAY.
SUNDAY. >> IT WILL BE TEN DAYS BY THEN.
>> TODAY COUNTS.
>> THIS IS NOT SOMETHING YOU DO
ALL THE TIME.
IT’S A CHALLENGE TO REALLY RESET
YOUR BODY, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
IT’S SOMETHING YOU DO TO CLEAN
YOURSELF OUT.
YOURSELF OUT. YOU WILL LOSE, YOU KNOW, A BUNCH
OF POUNDS ON IT.
YOU WILL LOSE INCHES BECAUSE
IT’S JUST THE NATURE OF ONCE YOU
GET RID OF THAT SUGAR AND THOSE
CARBS IT STARTS COMING OFF.
HALFWAY THROUGH I SEE A
DIFFERENCE ALREADY, A LITTLE BIT
OF A DIFFERENCE.
>> WHAT IF WE, JENNIFER, LET’S
NEGOTIATE, HOW ABOUT A FIVE-DAY
CHALLENGE.
CHALLENGE. >> THAT’S A BETTER IDEA.
>> FOOUFIVE DAYS?
>> I DON’T THINK YOU’LL GET THE
BENEFITS.
BENEFITS. WE HAVE THIS THING THAT’S LIKE A
MENTAL FOG, AND TO CLEAR IT OUT,
I THINK THE TEN DAYS -- I’M NOT
AN EXPERT, OKAY?
I’M GOING BY MY TRAINER WHO’S
AMAZING AND WHO’S WORKED WITH
LENNY KRAVITZ, HE’S WORKED WITH
ATHLETES AND HE’S LIKE THIS IS
SOMETHING -- I TOLD HIM, I SAID
I JUST WANT TO GET TO THE NEXT
LEVEL.

DEAL, I THINK WE SHOULD TRY.

BE IN.

IT FOR FIVE DAYS BECAUSE YOU’VE
GOT SOME PLANS THIS WEEKEND AL
