Okay, so this is perfect timing for me because I've been so off-track. But I've also noticed that no one really participated in the last challenge, myself included. So hopefully this will get everyone back up! Nutrition: Complete your diary every day for a full week. Exercise: Do some aerobics to increase your agility and…
We are getting closer to Spring and warmer weather! Nutrition: Eat less carbs. I'm working on this one as well. It's the only thing that will help blast away that blasted belly fat :) Exercise: Push yourself just a little bit harder each time. Sign up for a race! That way you have something to train for. Wellness: On the…
Hello everyone! Hope everyone's been well lately! Here are the new challenges for the upcoming weeks. Nutrition: Meet your goals for protein. It's best for muscles and burning more calories :) Exercise: Create a routine and stick to it! Wellness: Do something not exercise related that is still good for you. For example,…
So, for this week's challenges! Nutrition: Stay under your sodium intake. I'm doing this for another weekly challenge in another group, and I thought it was a great idea :) Exercise: The core is the most important part of your body! Do at least one core exercise every day (this means abs, back, hips, chest) Wellness: Do…
Okay, I was gonna post the challenges ahead of time but forgot last night, so the challenges are going to be kinda not well thought through this week since I'm in a bit of a rush. Nutrition: Get as close to your calorie goal as possible. Exercise: Do an hour of exercise 3x a week. Wellness: Take a walk in a scenic area to…
Nutrition: Complete your food log every day! Exercise: Exercise for 45 minutes 3x a week. Wellness: Do your measurements. I'm doing these a day in advance because I'm not gonna be around in the morning to do it. Good luck!
Well, since I started the post, I'll start! My name's Heather, and I'm an MFP addict. I started on MFP back on July? August? And I loved it. Still do. I've lost 13lbs (Started at 147, now down to 132) just by exercising and eating right! I had arthroscopic surgery back in April on my hip, and was off my feet with no muscle…
Okay guys, let's get back on this! I have a little extra time now to start up challenges and goodness knows I could use a little push myself! Here are the new challenges for the next two weeks. Nutrition: Drink half your body weight in ounces of water (ex. 200lbs = 100oz of water) Exercise: Exercise for at least 30 minutes…
Okay, so I'm finally adding some new challenges. Sorry for the delay! Nutrition: Come within 50 calories (above or below) your calorie goal. Exercise: Do 30 minutes of exercise 3x a week. This includes walking or a full routine. Exercise Pt 2: Do 100 squats (Build up those legs!) Wellness: Take a hot bubble bath to relax…
Okay! Here's the first week of challenges. I'm just kinda pulling these out of my .. head :) Some of you who have been on my support group forum before, you may have seen these ones already. But it's okay! Nutrition: Eat at least one vegetable a day. Exercise: Workout for at least 20 minutes 3x a week. Wellness: Only weigh…
Okay, so I want to get a few solid people on here, myself including. I just started on the Paleo diet, with a few modifications, and so far I feel pretty good about how it's going! It's going to be a challenge getting my calories up, but for the first day I did pretty well. Any new things in anyone's life?
I saw this on a forum and thought it would be interesting to do. On top of the biweekly challenges, I'm gonna do a January 2012 challenge to get us started for the new year. We burn 12,000 calories throughout the month of January. Individually, not as a group. We check in each time we workout, doesn't necessarily have to…
Okay, so because it's that time of the year, I'm stopping the challenges until the start of 2012. It's too much of a hassle to keep it up when I know we're all far too busy to do the challenges. So instead, what is the best thing that has happened to you this year? Me? Starting on MFP :)
What are everyone's goals this week? Or just in general? My goals this week is to not eat sweets. No ice cream, cookies, etc. We have a bag of kettle corn and that's getting finished off and then we're done. I'm not even gonna buy Skinny Cow ice creams this week because I a) can't afford it and b) need those extra calories…
