Care to take a challenge!!!

I wanted to do a little something different today. Yesterday Salome drank (salome I hope you're not mad I am using you as an example) 2.5 litres of water in the early afternoon. I commented on her blog about me drinking 4 so far.  Well I THINK she took that as some motivation because as of last night she had 4 litres. Yey to Salome

SO I thought that maybe we could motivate some one person to accomplish something today. Whether it be drink 5 litres of water, do an extra 20 crunches, eat another 2 peaches today, walk an extra half a mile,keep fat below 20%, etc. Whatever it may be. Pick one person an give them that goal. It's going to be kind of tough because some 2 people might pick the same person. But if you let me know I can add it on the first post.

these 2 people can then motivate their other partner to do something extra that day that will benefit them.  If no one like my idea, well Erik please delete. IF you do then we can get going.

UPDATED: dO not tell us the goals they want to set for themselves. Just where they are now and let US set the goals. How do you eat? How much/little? How much do you drink? Exercise? How many free days do you give yourself?


SIGN UP SHEET FOR 07/10/06

Hkellick pairs with Chunkychoo

Phoeniz121 pairs with Anniew

Rahana pairs with Steurl

Lyndalyn pairs with Kirstincmc


Dove, Momo28, Salome, Slappy,  Aquade, Nymo, Isusiubeste,  Mellisabee,




So as more people sign up I am going to assign pair as they come. FIrst come first served. Give your partner a task today to motivate them and vice versa

FOR ME : I have 1200 calories a day. work out once a week because of school, I know I could do crunches really quick when I get home but I have no motivation. I drink 3-4 litres of water a day. I try to eat lots of different fruits.

Hmm... I like the idea, but maybe let's do it like this.

First let's create a "sign up sheet". If you're interested in this, reply (count me in)

Then tell us a little bit about what you're doing now, and where you think you could improve.

Then Rahana, you set a challenge for someone on the list. Who gets to set a challenge for someone on the list. No repeats.

Sound fair/reasonable? :)

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* -*-*-

So let me say something about myself, and I'll let others pick my challenge.

Right now, I don't log in either my food or exercise, so I have no idea what my grades are. Typically, I think I'm eating under 2,000 calories, though (Based on about a week's worth of logging in my food and awareness of what I'm eating.)

I typically drink ALOT of water.. not sure how much, but my bottle does have measures on it, so I can measure.

I'm currently joggine one day (11.5 minutes, right now, at a very slow jog) and DDR'ing another with one or two "rest days" a week.
What else? What else makes a good challenge?

sounds good to me. I will change the name of the tread and wait for people to "sign up"

Count me in.

Goals: Drink 4 Liters of Water Daily.

Walk 15 minutes.

Do stretching/strengthening exercises.

O.K. I am in....

I can drink more water.

I can do oh maybe an extra mile today. 

PS Rahana just don't start coping stuff from my journal and posting it in the forum...... that might really get me in trouble!

hahahahahahaha

me too..

I need to drink at least 70 ounces of water today..  (how many liters is that?)

I also want to run a mile and a half today ALONG with my normal workout. 

got it Dove. but WE have to set the goals for you....:)

Ok, I'm interested.  Someone crack the whip on me.  I feel like I need it. 

Weather is supposed to be quite decent today and thru the weekend.  Low humidity, a little wind, and temps around 78.

Only thing I have planned is work today and tomorrow, and Saturday we're going out to the pub for music and drinks.

So what's my assignment?

thanks. I thought this might be cool to do.

Yeah, I was kinda thinking that people not tell us the goals they want to set for themselves. Just where they are now and let US set the goals. How do you eat? How much/little? How much do you drink? Exercise? How many free days do you give yourself?

Ok I have a hard time staying below 1900 calories mostly because I have a couple drinks in the evening with hubby and then start on chip & dip.

I don't like to exercise.

I struggle drinking 4 Liters a day of water.

Other than that I am a wonderful person :)

thanks guys. I appreciate you posting these things. No we just have to wait for others...:)

hit me baby!  Give me your best shot!  I drink 80-90oz a day and do some form of cardio at least 30mins 4 times a week,  either a Jillian Michaels dvd or running.  The days I dont do the cardio I do 30mins of abs and arms.  I am in the process of uping my calories from 1200 to 1400.

Count me in. I could definetly use a challange.I need to get back on track staying under 1400 calories a day.

8 people so far. Look at the top and see who you're paired with. Make sure you know a little about the person's wate intake, exercise, daily life before you challenge them.

I think Aquade and I will work great together and keep each other on our toes :)  Shes my girl!

HK since I am paired with you, how is your daily food intake? What do you normally eat?

If slappy can't challenge me to get my butt in gear, then nobody can.

Steuerl how far do you normally run? How much water do you normally drink?

so does this mean I get to take Aquade and turn her into another slappy!!!!!  LOL
