I must confess that I am a bit of a Challenge Whore. Pardon my language..to any that might be offended. It's just that I need every push..every cheerleader...every button..badge..bling...pat on the back..atta girl..you can do it that I can get. I don't slack on any..I report in..and I am very appreciative of my "leaders" and try to give support to my co-challengers...So maybe I overchallenge a bit..but they are all so enticing. It's not for the prize..it's for the fun of the competition, the camaraderie, the excitement of the weekly check in and it's just the push I need to STEP AWAY FROM THE PIZZA (in my case) or walk that extra mile/3,100 steps or drink that extra glass of water...So call me a challenge WHORE...is Challenge Junkie...Butterfly.. any better. Call me what you will..I am up for a challenge. I NEED it. Bottom line..I don't know if I could do it on my own. I am not the most self disciplined, self motivated gal around. I know this about me. I am just SO GLAD I have found the tools here to help me.
Here are my current challenges-
- HYC--Started it all. I say a little thank you to The Scale Junkie daily for doing this.
- Walk the World With Tigerlily
- - I was all over this as It was along similar lines as my Virtual Pilgrimage Tigerlilys is hard enough..@ 42 miles a week. I like to learn about the cities she features each week. She gives great info on each one and adds a fun challenge relating to each city. She is also very encouraging! THANK YOU TL! You "MOVED" me! Best of all..I get to use my pedometer..which we all know I adore!
- FBPC- Too lazy to type it all out..but a perfect transition..speaking of the pedometer...This witty and adorable gal..who calls herself FAT BRIDESMAID (love it..i've been called that, by myself..maybe others) has started a pedometer challenge. She has many people dusting of the ol pedometer and STEPPING UP! I am so glad to have stumbled upon it. She is offering a prize too! Thanks FB for counting and giving worth to the steps I take when I run up and down the stairs b/c I lost this or lost that...or forgot this..Thanks.
- Our very own APRIL Challenge (look at sidebar)..It was just 3 of us..and I am unsure of Erin's total...but MANUELA LOOKS TO BE THE BIG WINNER..OR BIGGEST LOSER. She lost 6 LBS! She worked hard to!! She exercised and ate well. NICE GOING !! Thanks for the support and the friendly competition..and for kicking my butt! I am blaming Passover for my loss..kidding. I take all responibility!
Tomorrow brings A NEW MONTH and new Challenges...
- I will continue on my others and start my own small MAY CHALLENGE. It's nothing huge..but I like it. Details on MAY 1!
- I think I will also partake in THIS ONE by Thinking Thin
Well..I must go now..I need to find other challenges to join. Kidding..Maybe i should get some work done today?
