Lauren's Challenge 9/6/2011

Challenge 

9/6/2011

Lauren on Facebook challenges- "get your mind set for this one.. it's hard (I still struggle after 3 years into my health journey). Workout BEFORE breakfast for 3 days in a row (just grab a drink before you work out). See if you notice any symptoms such as more hunger, better mood, more energy, etc. This will do a drastic boost to the metabolism, so make sure you have healthy snacks in the house!"

Jackie's Response

This is difficult, I have tryed several days to do this in a row but have ended up not quite doing it. Usually because of getting up to late (I'm not a morning person usually) or some other excuse. I am not going to let this get in the way though. I will be wakeing up in the morning tomorrow to play some wii dance game in the hope of restarting this challenge. I then am going to go to one of the classes either for the second day of the challenge or the third, haven't quite made up my mind.

 

Hopefully I can get this done, till then, I'm posting the stuff I did have as false starts to the challenge as an exercise diary posting to make it more organized.

Somethings Gotta Give, Somethings Gotta Change

The Big Weight Issue.

Just wanted to let you know...

More to come at a later time, when the biggest loser tryouts are done and I have the time an effort to balance both my beginning healthy lifestyle struggles and this blog.

I weigh 283lbs now.

My goal is to be 140lbs.

That is half my body weigh yes... but I figure I want to get out of the obese range so I can make sure its dang hard to get to this point health wise again.

I will be happy just to feel healthy and be able to do more physically than I am able to now so the goal of 140 may or may not change depending on how I feel when I get close to that goal (weather I think I look/feel good at that size or if I need to add more muscle/fat or loose more, although I suspect being 140 will be good for me. It's an average size for someone my height according to a lot of sources I checked. If I can afford a doctor later on I might double check though with a doctor.)
