A lot of health/fitness bloggers around the internet are trying new things, setting up challenges and – by the looks of things – getting 2010 off to a great start.
My 2010 started with pain, pain, misery, pain, gallbladder removal and recovery. Fun stuff.
While I’m still technically not supposed to have any ‘strenuous activity’ for the next two weeks, I’m thinking of doing a twelve day challenge starting on Monday.
(Hey, if I can handle sex now, I’m pretty sure I can handle exercise more strenuous than walking.)
(…like I was going to go a month without sex. Pfft.)
I have a new dance/exercise DVD I am eager to try out, as I love dancing. On another note, I’m realizing that dinner is a problem area for me. It’s disproportionate (bigger) than all my other meals, and I want to fix that. Thirdly, I’ve been slacking on my water.
So, for twelve days (because I’m leaving on the 13th and will be gone for a week), I want to do three things:
1. Workout every morning.
2. Drink 1.5 litres (at least) of water every day.
3. Replace dinner with a meal replacement shake.
Okay, so it’s not the most genius or hard challenge you’ve ever heard of, but I’m not set on wearing myself out. I just want to give the dancing a geniune go, get back in the groove of drinking more water and see if having a calorie-controlled dinner will help me lose weight.
It should be interesting.
Are you challenging yourself to anything next month (next Monday)? Right now?
