Week 6 – Slim Down For Summer Check-In

by 8 Comments

Welcome Back To Week 6 Check-In!

2 Weeks left! Are you ready for summer, yet? You still have time to make a difference on how you feel and look! What was your most successful week and what did you do to get the bests results (just feeling awesome and/or loosing the most)? My best week was in the beginning when drank 3 qts of water a day and went to bed at 10:30/11 pm every night and woke up at 5 am. I had a lot more energy waking up early than I did on days I slept in and I lost 4 lbs that week! Remember do not get discouraged if you did not have a good week. We are building healthy habits.

If you are starting late, Welcome! Go here for the Fitness Challenge details, guidelines, point tracking sheets, tips, etc. Make sure to look at the bottom of this post for Week 5’s Bonus Points!

***Make sure you FILL OUT THIS FORM to officially check-in ***

*This form will be closed Wednesday night at midnight.

Week 7 Bonus Points: (2 ways – can do both) ***Way #1: Have a minimum of 5 full servings of fruits and veggies daily. That’s 5 together total, not 5 fruits and 5 veggies. 😉  Check out here for a good idea of a serving. And here (veggies) and here (fruits) for an idea of what a serving of each looks like. (Click on the food gallery link on each page) Note: Some servings of fruits and veggies are a half cup and some are a full cup. Since I know this will be tough (and a food journal would help keep track of this, but not required) I am going to reward you! (2 points for each day you have 5 full servings of fruit and veggies= 14 points total) ***Way #2: What area do you need to improve on or is the hardest for you out of the 5 main ones (water, exercise, sugar, sleep, food curfew)? In the comments below, make a commitment to improve one area (preferably one that is hard for you) and what you are going to do to make sure you achieve full points in that area this week…. i.e.  “I have a hard time getting my last qt of water in until the couple of hours before I go to bed. This week I will drink all my water before 6 pm” or “I’m going to drink 3 qts water this week” or “I am going to exercise for 45 minutes 5 days this week”, etc. Don’t cheat yourself. Be realistic, but don’t pick a challenge that you are already achieving and are awesome at!  (1 point for each day you meet your personal goal = Max 7 points) So, you have a chance to get 21 bonus points this week! Whoa!

Let’s have fun and get into shape!!

  2. The exercise thing has been the one I’ve slipped on the last few weeks. So this week I’m going to for sure get 5 days of exercise and I’m going to incorporate strength training into each workout (which I really need to do).

  3. I can commit to getting more exercise. I think I’ve exercised a total of 9 times in the last six weeks. So this week I’ll go for three full workouts, not just playing tag around the playground.

  4. My worst area is sleep. I’m doing well on the other areas, but I miss sleep points every week. I can blame my 3 little kiddos on that to some extent, but I could do better going to bed earlier. Sooooo…. THIS WEEK I’m going to do better. My plan: Take the food curfew to 7:30. That will help me get into bedtime mode for everyone else earlier. AND – no computer after 9:15. I’m sharing these goals with my husband so he can help me 🙂

  5. You completly read my mind in the water area. I forget to drink water in the morning and end up having to drink the majority in the afternoon and evening. So this week I will drink all my water before 7 pm”.
