Group to lose that last 10-30 pounds to achieve goal weight. 12 week challenge. Let’s see if anyone is interested....
In challenge,
• Minimum 8 glasses water per day
• Minimum 3 fruits & 3 vegetables per day, not just as snack, but incorporated in main meals
• Minimum of 60g protein daily (more is better, but body can only process upwards of 30g at a time so, if at a meal having 20-30g then, space next protein intake out by 3 to 5 hours. As well, I’m a vegetarian and we can swap vegetarian meal options for protein if anyone else is as well)
• Minimum one hour of daily exercise (tempted to make this a partial running challenge?)
As progressing:
• Focus on fruits/vegetables/protein becoming larger portions of diet (while maintaining personal daily calorie count)
• Focus on trying to increase water intake to 10+ glasses daily
• Focus on specific exercise goals, which may or may not include the following - toning specific body parts, learning/increasing skills in specific techniques or exercises, etc
Overall, trying to give general guidelines and not overly strict guidelines since they may be more difficult to stick to overtime and everyone will most likely feel differently about one thing or another.
Starting Date: March 3rd
Length: 12 weeks
My starting weight: 136.6
Goal weight: 115.0
