It’s a beautiful Friday morning, and it’s going to be another beautiful Saturday in Vasona Park! Hopefully you all had a focused week and are taking steps in the right direction each day toward your new, healthy life.
Please note…..to put it gently:
IF YOU HAVE NOT SENT ME YOUR B4 PICTURES…YOU ARE NOT IN THE CHALLENGE!
As much fun as I have teaching you on Saturday mornings with my spectacular team, I am not doing this for my health. (I’m actually doing it for YOUR health…but that’s a different story)
I make the challenge as accessible as possible to anyone who wants to join in, but you gotta follow the very few rules I have installed, one of which is sending me your pics. (I only want them electronically, but if you are email/computer challenged, I’ll take a hard copy.)
Whew… glad we got that out of the way…
I just had one more thing to add.
Do you all realize that there are literally THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OF PRIZES that will be given away to the winners of this challenge???
My question to you is…. are you even trying? Are you focused on making these 10-weeks the most life-changing weeks possible?
So far, I’ve only received ONE email from a very enthusiastic challenger determined to win. ONE! I’m wondering who else is taking this challenge seriously enough to actually change their life?
And if you’re not…my next question is… WHY NOT?
I do deserve this! What perfect timing, as I have been SO good on my eating for the last few weeks, but have been feeling very challenged by the desire to stress eat the last couple of days. I have been hitting protein when I feel the sugar urge (per your blog recommendation!) and that has been helping too. I think I needed to be reminded today, though, that I am worth the effort- thank you!
Changes I have made for myself (and the challenge!):
Healthier eating- I’m actually hitting my fruits & veggies every day!
Drinking my water
Exercise- I have been increasing my running (aiming for my very first 10K in a couple of weeks- eek!), running three days a week, boot camp one day, plus following the WOW and on my own the other days. I also have taken advantage of one of the Breathe Yoga passes included in the challenge, plus trying to stretch more, in general.
I have lost 3.8 lbs in the last 3 weeks and my measurements are shrinking too! I may not end up at the top of the YBB challenge, but I’d call that a win!
What email address do we send our pictures to? Oh I am in and I am going to be if not the winner in the top 3!!!
Emily,
That’s a GREAT start…Keep it up! You are on the right track and it’s important that you STICK WITH IT! Focus on building the habits and following through consistently. Keep visualizing the final result as if it already exists, and then when you look up…you’ll be there!
audrabakerfitness@gmail.com is the email address. And Monica… FOCUS on taking it all, girl! That’s what I’m talking about!
