So as promised I told you guys we would have little weekly challenges, goals etc. Now before I state what any of those are. Feel free to do more of any of the things I lay out for us but please remember for beginners... Do atleast this. I won't make anything too challenging and you are always welcome to exceed my limits
.
NOTE** (ON ALL DAYS DRINK ATLEAST 2 LITERS OF WATER *MINIMUM*)

Sunday Jan. 1st - No Saturated Fat, be active all day. Don't sit in front of the tv for more then 1 hour the whole day.
Monday Jan. 2nd - 30 Min Walk/Jog (Whatever you prefer) , 10 Minutes of Cardio , 5 Minutes light strength training.
Tuesday Jan. 3rd - NO EXERCISE, Stay in calorie goal. No Saturated fat and no processed sugars! (natural sugar ok)

Saturday Jan. 7th - 15 Squats, 15 Lunges, No salt (sodium) and lets push for 3 Liters of water (stay in calorie goal)

- This is subject to change & fellas I know there are a few of you do not feel pressured to have to do squats, unless you want a nice booty :blushing: then gladly do them however :) you can choose to do something else!! Just let us know what you plan to do.
-Weigh in is Jan 1st, 2012 . Everyone will post their starting weight *for this challenge* on the TOPIC TITLED "Jan 1st Weigh In" which will be up December 31st.
- No one will see you do any of these activities but we will all be rooting for you to! I know everyone here has their reasons to get in shape and lose weight. Some of us have been over weight our whole lives others, for only a couple of years... Whatever the case may be no more excuses. WE CAN DO THIS. We can earn the bodies we will have! Sexy, In shape & toned!!

Good Luck Everyone!

    Awesome my wii game active 2 does all those above (squats cardio, ect.) The only thing I need to get out and do is get out the house and run or walk. Need to get my stroller back. So I'll be pushing extra weight to help me :-) question, I'm new to the whole looking at calorie and stuff, what are some examples of non-saturated fat foods and where do I look up for the saturated fat on foods?

    Sound good. I like a challenge. I think sugar and carbs are probably my # 1 and 2 weakness. And I don't always pay attention to sodium. this should be interesting.
    OMg... just realized I haven't weighed myself since Xmas. I'm scared now!

    There are tons of websites for nutritional facts of food. and you can always look up " Foods With little to no saturated fats " ;) I am always here to help an questions or concerns etc INBOX ME and I will be glad to help in any way~ Good Luck
  • Yay! Super excited!


    But I was wondering.. how do you make sure that all the food you ate had zero salt? I'm not the one who cooks in the house.. but of course i won't add any extra salt and will stay cautious.

    For the most part saturated fats are in animal products. I think trying for zero saturated fat is actually quite difficult!

    I must admit that I failed on Sunday's challenge. I had eggs and cheese at breakfast and later chicken with my blackeye peas and greens. Oops! way more than an hour of tv. I did do 64 minutes of exercise and drank more than 2L H2O. Today will be a much better day...

    Regretfully, I did not remember to check to see what was going on with the group until today. So, I missed the first two challenges, ugh! I am going to roll Sunday,Monday, and Tuesday challenges all into one tomorrow.
