I was challenging myself over on facebook to lose some weight by the Summer Solstice by June 21st and I thought a few others might want to follow along. Here’s the format:

  • Six weeks
  • pick something from each category (Food, Fitness, Care) to track

Food

Pick a way to track your food. I like “my fitness pal” and/or “lose it” for the iPhone. Start tracking. 

Every article I’ve read says being aware of what and how much you eat is the best way to make changes that will benefit your health. 

So let’s start tracking!

Fitness

Pick something you want to do. Is it walking? A couch to 5K? Going to a yoga class? Pick something, schedule it, and do it every week.

Care

Take care of yourself. Drink enough water, protect yourself from the sun, stretch. Pick a goal for the week, write it down, and do it.

See you with my update next week.
