Hey Everyone!

I was thinking of making this group more exciting by adding a weekly challenge! The challenge could be simple like staying under your calorie goal or running/walking 3 miles.

Does anyone have any suggestions for next week?

    Maybe a different challenge every day? Such as .. Monday= an extra 30min walk, Tuesday=Eat your 5 fruit and veg a day, Wednesday=No sweets, cakes etc.., something like that? :smile:

    I'm game! I love challenges.... just please, please, please don't take away my one piece of chocolate a day! I would just curl up in a ball and be pitiful~~~ ;(

    Here's a good one... staying under calories, NOT INCLUDING exercise points... I find that hard.

    I think that Monday should be "drink your water day". For those of us (me included) who have a hard time drinking the 8 cups over the weekend, it will be a nice kick to get back into that habit for the week.

    Great! Thanks for the responses!

    I'm only going to have one challenge for Christmas Day so far, its going to be a hard one!

    Christmas Day Challenge: Try to only have 1 dessert at a reasonable size OR try not having any dessert at all and sticking with fruit!

    This is a tough one! Let's see who can do it!!! (This is especially hard for me! Blah)

    That is completely against my whole philosophy. I will have whatever I want on Christmas day. I don't think it's a good idea to limit yourself every single day of the year. How is that sustainable?

    its just a challenge open to anyone who wants to join... I'm not saying to never eat desserts again.. I am saying to limit yourself on this one day since everyone will probably be enjoying a feast anyway.. so by no way is anyone limiting themselves for a lifetime just for day.. which I personally think is ok to do sometimes..
