I'm off to a great start, so that decides it for me....I'm in for 40 days of awesomeness!
I'm certain I'll twek this list before the day is out...and as soon as I read everyone else's :laugh: I already copied the 10 real push-ups from someone who posted earlier :flowerforyou:

My 40-day 3 mini-goals:
1. Cut sodium to 2400 mg daily…salt is my Achilles heal
2. Healthy snacks…carrots, almonds, air popped popcorn.
3. Burn minimum 3500 calories a week w/70 ounces water daily
The results I would like to see include a drop in blood pressure and 10lb drop in weight.
I would also like to be able to drop and do 10 real push-ups!

Achilles heal overload! I was doing so well, BEFORE actually saying I would cut sodium! Refocus time...it would be so much easier to drop the weight if I could just keep off the salt, bec' I can't tolerate most fatting foods without salt, so that would be so perfect! Right?
I'm blowing it double time..Urrg :explode:

Dang! I watched Dr Oz today and he said 1500 mg limit on sodium!! Yikes, and I thought I struggling getting it down to 2400 mg a day....going to have to re-figure everything. :sad:

Almost on track here.

Ate breakfast, although a little late.
Still have two glasses of water to go.
Weather has been cold, even snow this morning. So the walking's been a bit of a bust this past week.

But, it's not off my list. I just don't do well in the cold.

OK, so I have been lousy at updating but I have been pretty devoted. I Have consistently burned over 5,000 calories a week, i am drinking 96 oz of water Monday- Friday, I also wanted to restrict my weekly intake to 8,400 which is 1200 calories a day. I do great Monday-Friday but my weekends are not so good. They have improved and I am trying to be more carefull but its such a challenge for me on the weekend. I enjoy beer and barbecue and its real hard to maintain 1200 calories at parties.
