I have decided that the time has come to get myself embroiled in a challenge. I didn't feel as if I wanted to before this but now I feel ready to go for it. The thought of the pressure of it no longer makes my heart race or my eyes shrivel.
I am joining in on Kandice's Summer Challenge .
My goals for this challenge are pretty simple.
1. Exercise. Got more of it as weather and migraines allow.
2. Stay on track throughout the challenge. I would very much like to go the full challenge without one day over 1800 calories. But no beating myself up if I go over.
3. Weigh weekly. This is a no-brainer, as I have to weigh in weekly to qualify. I am hoping that actually making myself get on that scale once a week will help get me over this silly block I have about it.
4. Hydration. Keep up staying hydrated. It really does make a difference in how I feel.
So, there you have it. :D
***Reminder to myself: First weight in is Monday the 24th.*** :D

I am having a good day, today. On track and feeling pretty fine. I haven't been sleeping as well as I would like. I am hoping that I will konk out good and hard, tonight. That is one of my biggest gripes about this time of year... For some reason, my sleep patterns go wonky on me and I sleep like shit during warmer weather. Frustrating and my dark circles are out of control.
I just want to take this opportunity to say how much I adore all of my followers who stop in and read and who comment. I don't always respond in comments. I suck at it and often feel it is better to stand mute than be seen as the dumb-ass I really can be. lol But I read and appreciate every comment you leave me. I often find myself nodding in agreement, smiling and laughing. I just *heart* all of you.
The Summer Challenge sounds great!! Keep us updated :-D
ReplyDeleteI was also amazed at how supportive and just all around wonderful the blogging weight loss community is. It is so helpful and really gets me through the hard times.
I know you'll kick proverbial a$$ in the challenge. I'm not so hot at comment responding either so usually try to acknowledge them in the next post. Or in my comments on their blogs.
ReplyDeleteI am doing a challenge too and it is helping me stay motivated. Looking forward to seeing you succeed!
ReplyDeleteThis challenge sounds good and your expectations are reasonable and realistic. You'll do great!
ReplyDeleteI sometimes find myself wordless when it comes to responding to comments on my blog too. Sometimes the comments say it all, and really don't require a response.
We all *heart* you too! :)
I think you'll do great at the challenge! I'm not good at responding to comments either. Can't always think of anything to say.
