It happens! Let's try to ALL make it onto the list for meeting our challenge guidelines/goals next week! Go STARS! Hey we have 6 weeks to try get our 7/7’s down packed! 

***Question of the Day*** [Inspired by Miss Jamaica and the Livestrong Fitness Tip of the Day]

Being active is about more than hitting the gym or turning on a fitness video. How will you be more active this week?

My answer:

I’m going to park further away in our carpark which will mean an extra 50-100metres a day = extra 1km walking a week 

STARS Guidelines:
- This challenge isn’t about how much weight you lose each week, it’s about your mental/emotional/psychological view and commitment to a long lasting healthy lifestyle, forming new long lasting habits. The weight loss will come from this of course, but the basic guidelines for this challenge are:
Exercising minimum 30 minutes a day, meeting calorie net goal every day. A perfect winning week would look like = 7/7 exercise, 7/7 calories. By all means do more. If I miss a day and do double the next day, I log no missed day as I’ve made it up – just chucking that idea out there, don’t beat yourself up ever!

- Write as much as possible when writing to your buddy and in the forum, we are in this TOGETHER!

- Please MESSAGE me (fifibox) your end of week update on or before Sunday night of each week.

- Support, support, support! Who can’t use a home court advantage? Let’s cheer each other on!

IMPORTANT NOTE

In order to maintain some order on the forum, I will close the forum and start a new one every Monday with the results you have messaged me on the Sunday. So, look for “STARS Challenge – End of Week 2” etc. each week.

Keep Shining STARS!
Fi  xo

    I plan on working out regardless of what the weather is doing! Also running (instead of walking) up my stairs at my house (3 flights) to get a little extra burst!
