OK Guys, The women have their little black dress challenge going on for New Years. So I thought what challenge could us guys do for New Years. That's when it hit me. What about T-Shirt Time yes from the TV show Jersey Shore. Unfortunately my wife got me watching that train wreck of a show. It is actually full of classic lines (like dirty little hamster), but one that stuck out to me was prior to going out at night the crew would walk around singing "It's T-Shirt Time!!!". So that where I came up with the name.

The purpose is to be able to put on one of those super tight T-Shirts. To be honest for me it's not going to happen by New Years, but I figure this is a way for to keep me motivated. Just knowing that other guys are taking the challenge, will keep me accountable. Hopefully it will do the same for you.

OK, so what is the Challenge?

The Rules will be as follows:
1) Replace one meal a day with Shakeology. If you don't know what Shakeology is shoot me a message.
2) Eat relatively clean the rest of the meals during the day. (I'm realistic)
3) Drink a minimum of 64 oz. of water a day.
4) Do at least 30 mins of exercise 5-6 days a week (really try to do 6).
5) You may only have 1 cheat meal a week.
6) Track your food and exercise on MFP and make your diary public for all to see. (Be accountable!)
7) Post here on a regular basis. Post your progress, your failures and failures. (Be accountable!)

Depending on how many people I get to join this challenge, there may be prizes in a few different categories. (Most Posts, most weight lost, most minutes exercised, etc...) I'm looking at a tenative start date of November 8th, 2010. Which would put us at 8 weeks until New Years. Who's with me???

    Err that kinda sounded bad. I meant, do we all as participants post pics? Not that I wanted you to hurry and post your pics lol! Not that there is anything wrong with that. Lol anyway great goal by the way. I won't be finished this round of P90X Plus until late January so i was trying to think of a little mini goal for the new year. This is perfect.

    No pictures necessary. If everyone makes their profile public, we'll be able to see how they are progressing.

    So why is Shakeology a necessary part of this challenge? I don't have that kind of money to spend on a healthy shake. Not that I think it is way overpriced, just that all of my money goes to diapers and daycare right now, haha.

    Ok, so I'm not a guy, but I wanted to say good luck to all of you doing this! It sounds like a great plan. I started a 30 pounds by Christmas challenge a couple of weeks ago. You can do it guys!

    What do you normally eat during the day? Shakeology can cost as little as $3.00 a day and has 70 different nutrients. Any meal replacement shake is part of the challenge, my preference is Shakeology. Especially considering the other options.
