October Points Challenge
It's back..... in all it's glory!

Here's how the Points Challenge (designed by Sandi of the 100 lb. Club) works: Every day, starting October 1st and going until October 31st, you have the chance to earn 4 points doing the things we all know help with weight loss: food, exercise, and water. You get 2 points for following your own personal plan for food, 1 point for getting in your planned exercise, and 1 point for drinking the amount of water you've set as your goal. That means that a total of 120 points are possible for the month of June.

Just post your points for each day as you go along, you can add to a previous post by editing or just post a new reply.

Example:

1 point for exercise corrilating w/ October fitness challege =
1 point for under 1500 calories =
1 point for recording ALL food intake & cals, even on bad days =
1 point for 75+ oz of water =

10.01-
10.02-

Good Luck to all that participate!

I really liked the points challenge before and seeing as I really need a kick up the bum to get back onto the dieting wagon, I'm joining in....

For me there are 22 days left in the month therefore 88 points to be had!

1 point for every 5 fruits/veg eaten =
1 point for every 30 mins of exercise done =
1 point for every 1.5 litres of water comsumed =
1 point for eating 1600 cals or under =
