This month has not gotten off to a good start for me. Too many bad food choices and limited time at the gym because of visiting family and a vicious migraine. Company has left and now I am getting back to my normal routine.
Goals for April:
Do some form of exercise for at least 45 min a day.
Drink at least 72 oz water a day.
Reduce my intake of Diet Dr. Pepper even more.
Do the April challenge.
Happy logging!

After getting past my tear long plateau I'm finally at my personal goal weight. So for April my challenge is to maintain it. I got a new swimsuit this week so that's my incentive.
Also, as much as I exercise, my lower abs are so incredibly weak. I can do lots of crunches, but not one single sit-up. I think today....right now, I with say being able to do a single full sit-up is my goal this month.0 -

Thanks! I pinned it to my Pinterest Health and Wellness board. I'm collecting a few different sit-up exercises to keep me from being bored.
Good luck to you too!0 -

Wow! That sounds more like a 3-month goal for me.0 -
my challenge I have set myself is to get under 100kgs by 1st May...that's 6kgs to go...had a good start already. also pushing myself to make sure I exercise EVERY day.
I think I got this!0 -
Goals for April:
Join a gym - check!
Go to the gym 5 days a week.
Log food daily
Get over my fear of the elliptical and AMT machines at the gym!0 -
I started training for a Sprint Triathlon. I have 10 more weeks to train for the big event.0

These look like great personal challenges. Check in with us as needed for a motavation boost, a high-five or just to let up know how it's going.0

I have gotten off to a rocky start as well.
April Challenge:
1. cardio for an hour a day (2 30 minute sessions so I dont wear myself or my bad knee out).
2. Stick to 1200 cals a day (after all the sugar and carbs on the weekend, I need to eat clean).
I'm sitting here in my work out clothes ( I work from home ) waiting until lunch so I can walk over to the gym!0 -
My goal for this month is to get thru 1 wk. w/o falling off track either with food choices (which I'll start today) or completing my log for the evening. I usually complete my logs from my cell phone & a few times I forgot & drifted off to sleep from being so sleepy :yawn: ,lol!0

I've just had a bit of a health scare, so I'm absolutely on a mission now! I've got about 30lbs to lose, and the more I can do by end of June the better. (That's my mini goal).
So my specifics are:
Get to the gym or equivalent exercise at least 3 times per week
Stick to my calories - at least averaged over a week to allow for the odd day when I'm not perfect
Believe in myself that I CAN do this, and it's worth it, and more importantly I'M worth it
Eat at least 5 portions of fruit & veg per day
Drink at least 2 litres of water per day
The ultimate goal is not to have any more health issues!0 -
After a L O N G winetr, we are finally opening our weekend camp this weekend. I can get back to:
Walking 3-5 miles Sunday & Monday each weekend
Drinking more water each day (outdoors a lot!)
Being more active (bocce ball, outdoor games)
Exercising a little each day during the week0 -
Continue working on C210K
Continue to improve abs with full sit ups instead of just crunches
Would love to show more results on the scales, but fitting into all my old suits now has been a great mood lifting experience! Everyone at work is wondering why I'm dressing up more these days -- it is only cause I can now wear clothes that have been in my closet that I couldn't wear!0 -
April is the month that I get a chance to have a "do over" running my the first long race I ever completed. In two weeks I am running a 10 mile race with a hill that lasts a full mile!~
I want to lose a few more pounds so I can beat my previous time and have energy to keep on going for the rest of the day.
This means getting back into my routine, listening to my body better and eatting healthier than I have started the month off eating.0 -

What is the April Challenge?
It's whatever you want it to be! From my perspective, it's an opportunity to publicly declare a goal I've set myself for this month to get myself kickstarted. If it's public, I'm more likely to do it. (Well - that's how it works in my head anyway!)0 -
Hit a plateau need to change it up
Start Spin class once a week
log food
Log exercise
Start doing new strength classes at gym 2 days a week
Continue to drink over 8 glasses of water daily
Start Couch to 5k I always quit after week 10 -
My challenge this month is simple...KEEP MOVING! Logging each day and keep on keeping on with what I am doing because it seems to be working! We are heading into our tourist season and my Boyfriend's schedule and my schedule keeps us on our toes, so pretty much for the next 6 months I'm gonna challenge myself to STAY on track even though life WILL get a lot more hectic!0

It's mid month....how is everyone doing?
So far I have kept up with all my personal goal except one. I was doing really well decreasing my Diet Dr. Pepper intake, however the last few days I have noticed and increase. Thoought I would check in and hold myself accountable.
I hope y'all are doing well with your challenges.0 -

1. Stick to my TDEG!
2. Minimum 3800 calorie burn/wk
3. Be 5lbs lighter by month end!
I have been very consistant with sticking to my TDEG and weekly burns still coming in 4000+, thus resulting in 1.5lbs away from my 3rd goal!0 -
My April Challenge is:
JM Body Revolution - I'm in week three (and I ache everywhere)
Jog three mornings a week
