My 30 Day Challenge: Update 2


A little harder over the past couple days, the rain has not let up, we even lost power in our neighbourhood for a couple hours Wednesday night. Still, I have pushed myself to accomplish the set goals – these are the defining moments which will make the difference on day 30.

I’ve also noticed that I’m starting to crave healthier foods. My body is responding to exercise, and lately I’ve wanted Pasta! Its ok, as long as I continue to burn more calories. I found some great tips to keeping on it!

Overall, a little sore, but not as bad as basketball on Sunday. However, back to the court today - Sunday basketball!

My 30 Day challenge


Right now I'm a shape - not the shape I'd like to be in. Here's where we begin. Ideally I would like to be back at a comfortable weight, feeling strong and confident. Currently, neither of those accurately describe how I feel or my physique.

The task - to at least have the confidence back, and to be as active as possible while I lead this busy life. The motivational music is loaded in the iPod - lets get started!

Step 1: Exercises around the home as frequently as possible and jogging with our dog daily.

Step 2: Regular gym sessions built into my weekly schedule.

Step 3: Back into team sports on a regular basis

The journey officially begins this weekend, but I've gotten a head start; Push-ups, Sit-ups and Triceps-Dips. I'm going to need to work on getting the number of reps up, and increasing the amount of sets through out the day.

Goal 1:
Have 100 reps of each at-home exercise done daily.
20-30 minute run with our dog each day.

Date to complete: Friday, November 20.
