Let me tell you, week one of the New Year Challenge was rough. I remember now why I don’t really challenge myself during the week between Christmas and New Year.
Getting through that week is a challenge enough as we work through holiday leftovers, celebrate my husband’s birthday, and snack on all the good snacks during New Year’s Eve! See: photo of the NYE spread I made!
Regardless, here’s the update:
Challenge Tasks:
- Drink 90-120 oz of water daily
I certainly wasn’t perfect but I did this most of the time!
- Walk for 30-60 minutes/week
We went to a water park and I definitely got my steps in!
- Track nutrition daily, 5/7 days each week
Definitely did not do this during week one. Oops! I did stay mindful, though.
- Blog weekly challenge updates
Week one done!
Weight Loss Goal:
My first goal of this challenge is to get back to 224 lbs and maintain that weight until my next challenge starts. My “shoot for the moon” goal is to lose 7 pounds because, why not?
Challenge start weight: 227 lbs.
Week one weigh-in: 226 lbs.
Challenge goal weight: 224 lbs. - 220 lbs.
Week one, I hung on for dear life and still lost a pound. I’ll say all of the swimming and walking around the water park helped.
Week two is already off to an awesome start and I’m excited to see how it turns out. Let’s keep going!
