SBD Holiday Challenge Check In
| Wed, 10-29-2008 - 6:28am |
It's Wednesday, and time to report in on your progress this past week for the SBD Holiday Challenge. How did you do with the goal you set for yourself? If you need a reminder of your goal, here's a link to last week's thread.

What will your goal be this week? Maybe it's as simple as making it through Halloween without gaining any weight; or maybe it's time to start a new exercise routine. We'll check in next Wednesday to see how you met that goal.

We don't pass out candy because of where we live -- no sidewalks, busy road, no street lights.
We did pick up a box of Hershey bars at Sam's to give out to the neighbor kids/friends.
Well none of us really need that candy, do we?
Maegan has braces and her orthodontist is already on me to take her for a cleaning. And she is due for one. But I haven't made the appt yet. Doesn't help that I completely forgot her ortho appt on Monday and had to call and re-schedule.
Truth is, Maegan gets tired of the candy after a while as well. And when it sits in the snack drawer for ages, I tell myself it's no longer any good anyhow. So I always know where it is, but I have that snack drawer divided into healthy snacks on one side and Maegan's stuff on the other. The Halloween candy has been in the bottom drawer for at least a couple of weeks now. But...it's unopened and will stay that way..until Halloween!!!

I did great last week...I got my exercise in and eating healthy.
I am joining in this week too!
My goals for the week are to drink 2 liters of water daily and to get in 3 weight training sessions. I usually drink plenty of water but lately I haven't been, don't know why. Every Friday I do a strength training class and try to do 2 others on my own at home. Since school and afterschool activities started up I haven't been able to fit in the home workouts.
Next week I'll work on specific food issues.
Good luck to all!

1) work out 4-5 days a week with 3-4 days of cardio(30-40 mins) and 20 mins yoga pilates the other 3 days.
2) drinking atleast 1.5 litres of water

Ok, I'm starting the challenge a few weeks late. Today I weighed in at 183.4. I forget how long the challenge goes, but I would love to get down to 170 by the end of the year.
My goals for this week are to get in 5 workouts (Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, plus one more day that I'm not sure of yet) and to eat clean! Baking is my biggest weakness, so I need to learn portion control!
I met my goal of exercising four times before I went to Florida and keeping my eating in line there.
Well, this past week has gone pretty well. I have so far managed to run 4 of the past 7 days (and will go tonite, too). I did the Ironworks class at the gym on Mon & Weds, and did cardion & weights today. I have to take tomorrow off to go on a field trip with DS. But we'll try to run this weekend.
Eating has been really good...with the exception of the Nutter Butter incident from a few hours ago (actually I think I only had 2 cookies total)... But I'll blame that on the kids, as we were using them to make their Halloween treats for school tomorrow... This weekend should be a pretty good one. My main challenge will be the Halloween party tomorrow night.
Goals for next week...get to the gym 4 times, run Sat, Tues, Weds, possibly Thurs. Find some new recipes to try--not like I don't have a ton of cookbooks/magazines to look in--I just tend to find the recipe, mark it, then forget about it.
