FEBRUARY CHALLENGE WEEK TWO- February 4-10

Hello everyone....
I am sorry this one went up late- The Superbowl kind of did me in- all the way around..... Here is this week's challenge

1. Record all your food in your MFP Diary (I did 6/7 days last week) so.... hoping this will keep me going. (One Point For This)
2. Drink 8 cups of water EVERY DAY (One Point For This)
3. 400 Jumping Jacks/Jump Rope, 400 Sit Ups, 300 Lunges/Push Ups (not at once, just over the week). (One Point For This)
4. Walk/Jog/Run For 5 Miles (One Point For This)
5. Do at least 30 minutes of any type of exercise for 5 days. (One Point for this- but you have to do this for 5 days- if you do an hour of exercise three times a week- this will not count) If you incorporate yoga/pilates into one hour, give your self one bonus point.
6. Record your last week's points on my February Weekly Points challenge (One Point For This)
7. Weigh in on Sunday- If you lost weight give yourself 4 points, maintained= 2 points, and gained weight= no points

Total amount of points you can earn this week is 11.... Let's keep it up!!!!!!!

    this week is going to be tough for me. i've been a little sick since Sunday and missed my workout yesterday totally...which means i have to do at least 30 minutes today thru Saturday to make it happen.

    #3 and #4 are going to be tough. hoping to incorporate a walk to the part on Saturday. that should put me in a good spot along with my Wednesday walk at work.

    hoping for a loss this week. i've been working hard.

    sheesh...well i got a full blown cold. my throat has been so sore i don't want to drink anything, let alone 8 cups of water. i have had zero energy and have missed most of my workouts this week. i'm going to be lucky to get evena few points for this weeks challenge. so bummed.

    hope everyone else is doing well this week. with any luck i'll be back at it by the next challenge.

    vzevens, sorry to hear you dont feel well. :cry: hope you get well soon!

    My R knee has been acting up so I think I will pass on the jacks. :grumble: As far as the 5 mile walk, I dont think I will make it. I hardly get to go out to walk/run anymore and get too bored on the treadmill. I did 1.55 miles this morning though. I am doing a 2 hr zumbathon tomorrow so I dont think I will get on the treadmill. I am going to the rodeo with my husband tomorrow night, there is a lot of walking there but I dont have a pedometer. There is also a lot of sitting and eating bad foods and drinking. :laugh: :noway:
