Okay so my cute cousin Amberly is participating in a fitness challenge. I was going to do it but didn't get my money in time. It has constantly been on my mind though. I am going to do it but I am going to mix it up a bit because I feel I would fail the first week with hers, and my friend Hillary suggested we change it a bit. So here's the deal. With Amberly's you have to send in money, mine you don't. I am not doing this to win anything, I am doing this to develop health habits. No soda for her, (1) 12 oz. can a day for me. No desserts/candy except on Sunday, and I am good with that one. Read your scriptures every day, at least one chapter, again a good one that I need to develop. Have family home evening once a week, also a good one. Don't eat after 7:30 with hers, with mine, I am extending that to 8. And finally exercise 6 days a week with hers and for me that is not realistic since I don't have a treadmill and my gym is 10 miles away with no kids allowed, so I am going to do 4 days a week. Also she has weekly challenges to eat enough fruits and veggies and drink plenty of water. For me, I am just going to try and do that everyday. I already got the water part down, just need to increase the healthy good. So anywho, this is what I am starting today. If you'd like to just join me for fun and make some healthy habits, let's do it! I feel like if you do it for a contest or to win something, after it's over, so are the good things. I am doing this to develop good habits. So there is no one to police you to make sure you're not going to eat a Snickers bar, but if you've been feeling bad about your pooch, let's do it!
-Exercise 4 days a week, at least a half an hour
-No eating after 8 pm
-Read scriptures every day
-No candy/desserts
-Drink plenty of water
-Eat fruits and veggies daily
-(1) 12 oz soda day if you need it like me ;) That is a serious decrease for me
This is a 12 week challenge! Today is my first day and I am excited!
