My Warm Up Challenges

Yesterday I signed up for Michelle Bridge's 12 Week Body Transformation! While I'm at a healthy weight I still feel unhappy about my fitness & would like to develop some muscle tone & healthy habits. My goal is to drop 2-3 kilos & find myself at a weight of 67kg. At the moment I'm in the warm up stage of the program so I'll be starting to take on the Warm Up Challenges.

Warm Up Challenge #1 - Make One Small Change
I've been considering what to do for this one; I've decided that I'll commit to only eating pieces of fruit as snacks in between meals.

Warm Up Challenge #2 - Halve Your Non-Water Drink Intake
This will be a difficult one for me as I drink a lot of diet coke, ice coffee and hot chocolate. I think I'll be able to pull it off though.

Warm Up Challenge #3 - Set Yourself An Exercise Goal
My goal for this week is to run/walk/swim/cycle/row 30km in total over the course of the week. As I'm planning to do two gym sessions this week I think I'll be able to crush this challenge easily. I may also do some walking in the days in between.

Warm Up Challenge #4 - Write Down Everything You Eat
From now on I'll start posting what I've eaten each day on this blog. This challenge is aimed at getting me to identify & address any bad eating habits I might have. Mind you I'm planning to start a meal schedule relatively soon so as long as I stick to it there shouldn't be any surprises. I can honestly say that my main downfall is that I drink an ice coffee whenever I go out anywhere & that I tend to eat more than necessary on the day I spend with my partner each week.
