Challenge Yourself for the Week of April 24-30, 2011!
Quote:
Weekly challenges are a great way to stay accountable on your goals over shorter terms. You choose your goal for the week. It may or may not be sustainable over the long term. If a challenge/goal is not working after one week, re-evaluate and modify or move on. If you're thriving and you like it, feel free to reuse goals week to week as you integrate the healthy habits you develop with your routine!
Let us know your goal for this week and be sure to check in along the way and at the end to let us know how you're doing!
Feel free to tell us about how your goal went last week too!
24: ✓ - Walk with the family
25: ✓ - Did Day 1, Week 2 of C25K. It whooped my butt. And 25 minutes on the elliptical
26: Day off. Food fail.
27: Unplanned day off from the gym. Another food fail that started with a donut!
28: Lazy day.
29: I did half of Day 2, Week 2 of C25K then quit after 15 minutes. Plus 45 minutes on the elliptical
30: 25 minutes on the elliptical. i seem to have a back injury that is slowing me down
C+ for me this week. Did exercise 4/7 days, but C25K was a fail.

This weekly challenge has helped me so much in the past few weeks so, even though I'm having health problems again I will not use it as an excuse so will,
1) Drink at least 64 oz of water daily
2) Limit my nf plain Greek yogurt to no more than 1 cup per serving per day.
3) Will not buy and bring home any nsa fudge bars!
This week (starting on Monday, yesterday was a total wash)I will
-exercise 6 out of 7 days
-stay on plan the WHOLE week
-drink 100 oz of water each day
-calorie cycle on Monday and Wednesday
24: fail on all counts
25: water ✓, exercise ✓ (45 minute walk, 15 mins. free weights), on plan low cal day✓
26: water ✓, exercise ✓ (45 minute walk), on plan regular portions ✓
27: water ✓ , exercise ✓ (20 mins. rebounder, 10 mins. free weights, 30min. walk with hill), very low calorie day X ate normal portions, had wine.
28: water ✓ exercise ✓ (20 mins. rebounder), on plan regular portions ✓ yes but a bit too many roasted chick peas
29: water X, exercise ✓ (20 mins. rebounding, 10 min. free weights) on plan regular portions ✓ (I'm counting the spanakopita as ok)
30: water??, exercise ✓ (40 min. hill walk) on plan regular portions?
4/24 jog/walk 3 miles - check
4/26 Ultimate
4/28 Ultimate
4/30 jog/walk 5.5 miles
This all builds to a larger plan - I am trying for a half marathon in the beginning of August. In order to get there, I need to add about a half mile to my distance each week. Got up to 5 miles jog/walk last week, so . . . here's to trying!
