July PM Challenge Invitation! (July 15-Aug 13)

July 2012 PM ChallengeJoin me and a bunch of awesome friends on Facebook for a special 30 day challenge!

What: A commitment to accountability when it comes to eating (NOT eating!) at night!

When: July 15-Aug. 13, 2012

What you need to participate:

  • the desire to create change in your life
  • the determination to stick with it for 30 days
  • the heart to encourage others involved in the challenge

Why I Think This Challenge Is For You:

  • This is a PERSONAL challenge – YOU decide what the cut-off is for YOU in the evenings.
    (for me it will most likely be 9PM)
  • Getting a handle on the night time eating is a personal goal of mine that I would like to exercise some more discipline with

Assignment:

  • Read the post “What Could You Change in 30 Days?” if you’ve not done so already
  • Be sure to “like” our Facebook page here if you’ve not done so already and say hello there.
  • If you’ve not done so, sign up with your email address to the right of this post (or on the Facebook page at top)
    (another way for me to be in touch with you)
  • Mark your calendar for a quick start date of July 15 – yes, that’s tomorrow.
  • NOTE: Even though we are starting tomorrow, feel free to jump in whenever you like! 🙂

How It Will Run:

  • Each morning I will post the check-in report for the previous night on the Facebook page starting with Mon. July 16 (this will be for Sun. night).
  • You can post your success (or challenge) in the comments section there.
  • We can also get some great discussion going regarding tips for dealing with the urge to snack.
  • I will not be posting here at the blog every day so the best way to follow along is via the Facebook page.
  • This is meant to be a fun way to be accountable to one another and create some true change in our habits over the next 30 days.

Ready…Set… Go!!!!

The Power of Your Mantra

The Power of Your MantraThis is a picture of my nemesis right now. I know it doesn’t look very steep in the picture, but trust me when I say on my bike this hill seems never ending.

I absolutely LOVE going down this hill. (of course!) I’ve clocked my speed at 26 mph – THAT is fun!

However, some days the ride down the hill is tainted by the anticipation of knowing I have to get back up.

My dad and I have done this ride many times and we’ve never NOT been able to do the hill – we ALWAYS manage to make it to the top without stopping, yet we complain every single time.

Every time we ask each other if we really can do it today…we don’t really like this hill. (can you tell? lol) [Read more…]
