April Challenge

[KayB]

Are you looking for a way to jumpstart your program with a little accountability?

Join the April Challenge!

Log your progress each day/week, using whatever categories you wish. You could concentrate on movement, water, calories, weigh-ins...the sky's the limit!

You do not need to log in using the same format that I do.

Hope to see you all in the April Challenge!

Gosh darn! I put the April Challenge thread in the wrong category. Does anyone know if it's possible to move the thread to "General Chat"?

You're fine. Just make a link to the challenge email, then post it under General Chat. But it will show up wherever you post it. We don't have that many posts, that it would get lost.

Day 16

Calories: 908
Protein: 61
Water: 91
Vitamins: yes

Movement: housecleaning

Surprisingly, I was not hungry yesterday and ate fewer than 1,000 calories. I worked on cleaning up my office/guest room. It looked more like a storage shed with the amount of junk that was in there!

Today I finish the task. My stepdaughter is coming to stay with us in a few days, and I want her to have a nice environment to relax in. She's going through some tough times right now.

Happy Easter everyone!

Watching hubby work up a sweat counts as movement, especially if you end up rolling your eyes at him lol! Anyway thank you for tracking. It's very encouraging.

I was the director, of course, as he was rearranging the furniture. I'm glad to be back tracking; it's the only way I can seem to keep on the path.

Feel free to join me, anyone! I'd love some company on the April Challenge.

NSV: When I get home from work, I always change into comfy clothing. Well, today I pulled on one of my three black t-shirts--one of which didn't fit last summer. Guess what? It fits now!

I don't really participate in this yet because I feel like I am too fresh out of surgery and it seems to be more of a long term challenge. But I feel super proud of myself and I felt like this was the best place to share.
Yesterday I had....
83g protein and 80 oz of water!!! (28 days post op)
I have been hitting goals by week 2 but barely and always squeaking by so I was excited to see how I killed it yesterday!
