Friday 2/25/11

It's FRIDAY! I managed to make it ALL week!! Woot! Woot! I'm really looking forward to the next 2 days off.

 

Today I did the Classic Walk from the 5 Day Slim Down. This walk is getting easier for me, so that's a good thing! I started my walk today and was interrupted with a phone call about halfway through. So once I was able to get back at it, I just restarted the entire DVD, so I got a little extra today.

 

For breakfast today, I had:

 

2 Scrambled Eggs with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.

2 Slices of whole wheat toast with a pad of butter.

4 Strawberries.

 

I always drink water at home, but I'm working on increasing my intake to 8 glasses a day. So that's a goal that I'll work towards until I have built myself up.

 

Next week, I'll start the 5 Day Slim Down from the beginning. 3 days during the week, I plan on also walking in the evening. On Friday, I plan to do the Speed Walk from the DVD, that thus far, I have not attempted.

 

Also next week, I'm going to begin a challenge.  I joined a page on Facebook called 'Nicole's Weight Loss Challenges'. I don't expect to be able to do every challenge to the maximum, but I think giving myself a challenge will only encourage me more. The details of the challenge are as follows:

 

 

We will be doing a St.Patty's Theme Team Challenge for March starting 2/28-3/13! A 14 day challenge as voted by most of you! We will be divided into 2 Team Colors! Green& White! So this challenge will be in 4 components:

1)Total Minutes
2)Water in Ozs
3)Mini Food/Workout Challenges 2x each a week
4)Post It or Daily Plate if you choose!

*Optional to track weight or inches!

So 1st we will be doing minutes this time instead of miles, so if you do 10 or 110 mins it all counts! Water! Ladies we should try to aim for 48-64ozs a day but whatever you can get in, it counts! Mini Food Challenge will be posted on Tues/ Thurs! Mini workout challenge will be posted Wed/Sat! If you can not do the mini challenge on that day but do it on a different day, that's fine! If you complete all of them by the end of the challenge you will receive credit for 4 food/4exercise challenges! Last but not least! If you like you can post your Daily Plate(all meals) OR for the 1st week you can post your daily snack(s) & the 2nd week you can post your daily dessert! If you post your daily plate or snack everyday you will receive credit for 14 days! This Challenge is for ALL LEVELS!!! Any questions feel free to post! Or message me on my Nicole Mason page. So here's the question... Who's Bringing It??? Are you In? Let's Get It!!!

I'm excited and I feel good about myself.  :)   :)   :)

 

Last night I tried to download stats from the bodybugg, but it didn't work out so well for me. I had to call technical support today. It's all straight now, so hopefully this evening, I'll be able to see how I'm doing!

 

Thanks for following me! And thanks for all the support so far!!!
