    I'm in! Same goals too! :)
  • I like the way you think! Sometimes its best to think in terms of small goals in order to reach end goal. Your goals are also excellent, and too will adopt them as mine.

    Thank you! Here's to a healthy and successful May 2011!

    I'm in I have a short attention span so a month challenge sounds good.

    My goals are:

    Eat raw foods during the day and have a low fat cooked meal for dinner. No snaking at night unless it's something like pickes, frozen grapes of such. Allow myself a treat on saturday. I will not count calories because that just makes me eat less everyday as if I'm trying to beat the previous day.

    Take long walks and get the yard cleaned up and ready for the garden.

    Start buying more clothes that makes me feel good.
  • just checking in with everyone....Im beginning a detox tonight... basically nothing but herbal teas & water for a day.... I feel so YUCKY after splurging for Easter still....

    I have a day of yardwork planned so no working out otherwise on Saturday for me... Im sure my body will think I did 8 straight hours of p-90X when Im done.....
  • days like this I wish I had kept my HRM... Ive been outside working in my yard.... I am NOWHERE NEAR DONE despite my working steadily for 3.5 hours.... I just came in to get my eyes a rest from the sun, drink some fluids & catch my breath.... Looks like I will be out there all day again tomorrow as well.....

    I also need to go grocery shopping to prepare my lunches for the week.....I do oatmeal for breakfast everyday...but Im going to make this a NO MEAT AT ALL week... just veggies & beans... My Dr asked what had I been doing differently... for the 1st time in over 6 years I have been taken off iron supplements... WOO HOO!! ( nsv!!)
  • I guess I am in this challenge alone...

    Oh well I just joined a running group in my county and just today began training for my 1st 5K in six weeks.... its SINK or SWIM time!!!
