Weekly Challenge

So it is midweek and probably not the most sensible time to start a challenge, but they all say tomorrow never comes...no better time like the present!
This week's challenge is to name something that you need to work on, just 1 thing, and try your utmost to fix it this week.
For me, I know I really need to eat better. So it's all about fruit and veg and food that is nutritious instead of just junk I feel like.
What is your goal?

I need to stay in the 600 calorie range during fast days. This is fast day 3. First day: ate 1000 second: 750.0
-
oh I know that feeling. It is so easy to talk yourself into those extra calories isn't it? I find distracting myself by staying busy and drinking lots of sugar free squash helps me stay under. I also have to pick my fast days carefully. Some days I just can't do it so I eat normally and try again another day.0
-
This week I'm going to stay away from drinking pop.0
-
At this point, the food is not as much of a challange as putting a yoga workout back in to my life. This week I will do my previously regular yoga workout twice. My fast days are Thursday and Friday. I am learning that I do control absolutely everything that goes in my mouth.0

I.Need.To.Exercise.
Now - this week, starting today.0 -
I need to record my food on the three feast week days. I'm not committing to this on the weekends, LOL. I'll save that form the next "fixit" challenge.0
-
I will continue to follow my plan, and will record my plan for next week before Monday rolls around.0
-
two fast days in a row? I would be so hungry on the 2nd day. I am fasting today and I feel suprisingly well. I am hungry, but not shaky, tired, grumpy, or weak like I thought I'd be after eating only 200 calories today. I am saving 400 for supper. Good luck on the yoga!0
-
I will schedule my two fasting days and just do them on schedule and not procrastinate about it. I think that my fasting days will be protein drinks mixed with green drinks for added nutrition.

Exercise. I've just started doing a 30 day shred, so that's a big plus but I need to take it from there.0
-
I need to eat better and start working out again. Planning on getting a gym membership at Anytime Fitness after I make tips tonight. (I'm a waitress) So until then, guess I'll get my working out done at work
I want a gym membership because at home workouts just don't last for me. I do good for a couple days and then I'm just like NOPE! But when I'm in the gym, I feel great. 0 -
My challenge for this week is to stick to not get carried away on 'feast' days!0
-
I'm gonna take my coffee black when fasting.0
-
I'm on Day 28 of the 30 Day Shred. Go for it.0
-
Oh, and I need to get to caffeine free. My addiction to diet coke gets me in line at McDonalds every morning, ugh!0
-
I plan on eating more healthier on my nonfast days. 0
-
I plan to stop drinking coffee (because I have to have sugar and creamer in it, Splenda just doesn't work for me in hot drinks). Anyway, today was my first day without it and did fine with just having my cold tea with Splenda.0

I am the same way. Mickey D's unsweet tea every day.
My challenge is to stay away from the scale for the rest of the week. I have a habit of weighing myself every day. Not a good thing as the slightest change in the wrong direction can either insprie me to eat better or throw me over the edge.0 -
This week's goal: No Coffee
Replacing morning my Joe habit w/my Almased+lots of other good stuff shake instead and using organic coffee extract in my morning breakfast shake.0 -
My goal this week is to stay focused!

I'm the same with the scale. I'm trying to stick to once a week. On my MFP chart it is always wiggly so I need to remember that no loss is usually followed by a big loss, and not get discouraged when it doesn't change.0 -
I really want to go without soda (so far, so good), and hit the gym every weekday (so far, so good). Now if this darned smoke would clear out, I would love to incorporate family walks.0

I am happy to know I am not alone when it comes to the scale. :bigsmile:0 -
Well, this morning I actually did my long neglected yoga routine. I can't say it felt great- but it did feel good- I've lost a lot of flexibility in the past 6 months or so. Just getting into the beginning pose was enough stretch for some of my neglected parts! I want to do the routine one more time before Monday...
Good luck to all in continuing to meet our challanges!0 -
I thought I put my weekly challenge in here a couple of days ago ... its gone missing. Anyhow I plan on reducing my alcohol intake this week. :drinker:1

haha amazing emoticon! How has it gone so far?0 -
OK, so I am really craving coffee today for some reason. But I plan to stick with this challenge and not have any.0

If I can do it...ANYONE can, you can too--I'm praying for you and pulling for you too! That said....
What I'm doing is NOT having any coffee on my down days (just to show my body who's in control ) and having one cup on my feast days.
Also, there are some mighty healthy teas around too. You got this and if you fail--well....Rome wasn't built in a day, right?0 -

Thanks so much, just knowing you guys are struggling too helps. I like the tea idea, I was actually thinking about that when I wrote the post so you mentioning it makes me want hot tea now instead of coffee...Thanks!0 -
I want to try to get back to the gym...not been for a while as my knee and hip are playing up...pain is shocking at times!
However,I have to walk my dogs, so I am endeavouring to increase my walks with them....as I had to do nowt for a while!
So, visit the gym, get a new exercise regime to suit my current predicament, hopefully some weights, some cardio!0
