Boy! I am so not sure what I got myself into here? I had this great idea from a friend (That would be you, Karen! Thanks!) to start a contest, challenge, game ~ whatever you would like to call it ~ to help motivate me to exercise and live a healthier life. So, with some of the ideas from Karen, I came up with this "biggest-loser-lets-change-our-lives" challenge and invited all my friends to join me. I thought I would get a bunch of people to get some teams together to challenge each other to eat healthier, exercise more and live a more active life. What better way to motivate ourselves than with accountability and peer pressure! Right?
The response turned out way better than I ever expected! We have 6 teams here in town ready to win. My own team is psyched and so ready for the challenge. They have a game plan and each one of them is determined to win ~ even me! Only thing is....

....we start tomorrow!
So, tomorrow I have to start eating better, exercising more (or just begin exercising for that matter) and being more conscience of my well-being. I have three other friends/teammates counting on me to stick with this and keep my promise. I will keep my promise, but...
...boy! What was I thinking...?

You can do this!!! Go Colleen!
I'm trying to do the same thing. I'm doing much better with the exercise, rest, & water parts but still struggling with food in general but I'm not giving up!
Colleen:

That's awesome Colleen! God calls us to be good stewards of the bodies He has given us. They are His temple; we must take care of them. I pray your team bonds together and that you are a motivation to one another. Good luck! :)
Thank you so much for the words of encouragement, Girls! Our good Lord knows I will need them through this. :)
Good to hear from you, Ashly! Hope you are settled after the mission.
Hugs!

Yay, Colleen!!! I am so glad you are doing this! I know the "team" approach is helping me very much. Mostly, I've committed this to God for His strength where I am so weak. Keep us posted on the results!
Love ya
