Challenge check-in, week 1
Last week I mentioned that my friend, L, and I were embarking on a 15 week better health and weight loss challenge. Today marks the end of the first week, so here is a quick check-in.
Goals:
Eat 3 balanced meals and 2 snacks
No eating after 7:00 pm
Exercise 5 days per week
Only 1 sugary drink per day
Lose 10 pounds
Lose 4 inches off areas where I carry my weight (waist, abdomen, hips)
This weekend was a bit rough because I felt so bad, but overall I had a good pretty good week. I owe $3 to the penalty jar for breaking my “rules”; I had more than one sugary drink on three days. However, my weigh-in and measurement check today was encouraging. I’ve lost two pounds and an inch off my measurements! That’s enough to keep me motivated for a few more days.
