Prepare Yourself, Think About It, Are You Ready For It?
Monday, October 30th, I'm going to post an 8 week challenge for those who are up for it. Monday marks 8 weeks until Christmas - a day we'll use to end the challenge.
Anyway, I'm going to post a challenge on Monday and ask you to list things that you'd like to change you'd like to make over those 8 weeks and goals you'll set for yourself.
Things to keep in mind:
1. Try not to post "I want to lose 10 lbs by Christmas" - we all know this far post-op that it is hard to truly gauge how much weight our bodies will lose and how fast/slow it will go. It would be wiser to chose eating, water, vitamin and fitness goals that might yield weight loss when done consistently over the 8 week period.
2. Try not commit to doing anything every single solitary day during the 8 weeks. Do not set yourself up for failure from the start. We all know that is derned near impossible to do something every day. Illness, problems, work, family and just plain life gets in the way. Setting a goal of "I'm going to get 100 oz of water in and all my vitamins in at least 5 days a week every week" is better than saying you are going to do it 7 days a week. See my point? (I did pay attention at Weigh****chers and other therapy type meetings).
3. Be sure to set yourself some cool reward at the end for a job well done. Whether it is buying yourself something if it is in the budget, a spa treatment, or just going to the library and getting a good book and allowing yourself the free time to doing nothing else but sit and read - go for it!
So, Are You Ready to Rummmmmble?

What a great idea. Course, I have no idea what my goals will be, have to spend some time thinking about them.
