Winner’s Challenge
(Instead of the Biggest Loser we are going to be the
Biggest WINNER)
First Step: Pick your own diet – What works for you!
Second Step: On Monday weigh yourself and write it down – on your honor – (last Tuesday I weighed right in a 300 lbs. I made a decision to change that – “So I said it and its not so bad because I have lots of improvement I can make”)
Third Step: Start a notebook. Keep what ever you want in it. But do start a “Thin Bucket List” – things that you want to do when you are thinner – start with 5 but add to it every day. (Some of my examples are: 1. dance with my dad again and not be winded, 2. sit in a movie seat and not feel crowded, 3. Go through a turn style and not have to go at an angle, 4. Keep up with my friends when they are walking, - got the idea? And as we loose we can make them off. But always keep your list to remind you of where you don’t want to return.
Other ideas for your notebook:
· Food journal
· Exercise journal
· Motivational tips
· Thoughts for the day
· Number of glasses of water you drank for the day
· Obstacles that got in your way
· Successes
Fourth Step: Set a short-term goal and come up with a reward when you reach it. I am going to set a goal for 20lbs and when I reach it I am going to treat myself to a movie.
Fifth Step: Begin!!!!!!
Sixth Step: Exercise at least 20 minutes a day – Hey doesn’t have to be anything too hard – wiggle your butt when you do the dishes – something you weren’t doing before
My goal is to send you each day a challenge. It
might not be a big challenge but it will be a
healthy idea or goal. An example might be—
drink one more glass of water than you did
yesterday. Got the idea? I promise it won’t be that difficult. It is just a way for us to keep in touch. I will start it off and then I will pass it off to another player as we get into it.
Any questions? I hope not. We don’t want to make it too difficult. The thing that I am sure of is that it is our time and we can do it!!
Love you all, Ann
(If you can think of someone else that would want to do this please send me his or her email address so I can add it to my list.
