    Not off to a great start. I got busy last night and completely forgot to do day 1. Figured I'd just do day 1 today before work and day 2 after work. Then my son was running late this morning and missed the bus and I forgot to do day 1. Maybe I'll do both after work.

    Days 1 and 2 of Christmas Countdown done. Slacking because I hurt my back and lower leg somehow at work so I was resting those up. I envy those doing the Bootcamp challenge...I WISH I was in good enough shape to do that one as well! I can barely even do the 10 push ups in the countdown

    You've got this! Life happens. Remember, you have days to catch up at the end of the month or, as you said, knock out 1 & 2 tonight.

    Loving this challenge!!! Day 3 ✔️ thank you for setting up this challenge. It makes me do exercises I would never even think to add to my workout. Also, I normally treat Saturday as my day off, but this makes me do that little bit more!!! Keep it up everyone!

    ^ pardon if this suggestion is too extreme for you but ... Could visualize whatever looks tempting with maggot covered, or how your body would look and feel in a months time carrying on as such.... Does it for me.

    AND day 1 done! Needed the cardio bit...


    I love your dedication and this idea

    Day 2 complete and feeling good! Though my eating has gone completely out of window :-( does anybody have an tips to get back on track? It's because we are now in December and there seems to be food everywhere!!! :-( will power, where have you gone...?


    Meal & snack prep with lots of healthy fats & protein + water, water & more water. When you're not hungry, you're less likely to snack on unhealthy stuff . . . plus what @klove808 said, LOL!


    Thanks @MiamiSeoul I defiantly need to improve my meal planning next week....and find my will power again

    Day 3 done, I'm exhausted! Tomorrow is going to be a very light exercise day.

    @Skipper111 I find keeping the Christmas treat food out of view helps- I have a special cupboard for that so I don't keep seeing it every time I go to the kitchen, and cheese and cream etc is kept in a box at the back of the fridge- "Out of sight, out of mind" :smile:

    Day 3 and 4 done today! I am having a rest day tomorrow and hate feeling that I am falling behind!

    I still hate mountain climbers but found I like skaters- great fun whilst listening to the radio :D

    Day 2 and 3 completed today - found the mountain climbers really hard as I have some kind of nerve damage in my left arm that makes it cramp up completely whenever I stretch it out and put weight on it. As such I usually modify any exercise such as this or the plank, by doing them on my elbows. Perhaps not as effective, but I think better than not doing them at all.

    Days 1 - 4 caught up on countdown to Christmas challenge, got day 1 of boot camp done but just didn't have it in me to keep going. Will keep up on the countdown challenge and hopefully catch up on the boot camp one soon. :p
