When: Aug 1 - Oct 30 , 2022
*Exercise 5 days/week for a minimum of 30 mins. (measured by my Apple watch green ring)
*Drink at least 64 oz. (8 cups) of water
*Get at least 7 hours of sleep a night (9:45-4:45)
*Follow a diet plan with 1 cheat meal allowed/week
*Take measurements every Monday morning
*Update blog with progress
MY DIET PLAN:
NO pop
NO fried foods
NO (very limited) processed food (means better snacking choices)
SMALLER portions
Bottom line, Eat less CRAP & eat more FOOD!
*HERE is a 90 day tracking chart you can print and use, if you'd like to participate in your own 90 challenge

At the same time my sister and I decided to make a lifestyle change, a group of local people decided to also start a challenge. Needing motivation in all areas, I decided to do BOTH! Information for the August Challenge:
August Challenge 2022
General rules to follow daily (each worth 1 point):
Meal Plan (you create your own specific meal plan that will challenge you but work for you. (Count Calories, measure macros, add servings of fruits and veggies, eliminate soda or candy etc. Be specific!!)
Water - minimum 80 oz
Exercise - 30 minutes
Healthy habit - implement a healthy habit to work on each day. (This can be ANYTHING! Read scriptures, stop biting your nails, no texting and driving. Etc!)
Communicate with a member of your team or challenge every day.
The challenge is 31 days. You will get 4 “free” days. Meaning: you get 4 days off of the rules for the whole challenge (one day per week). Once you’ve used all your 4 free days, any day after you fail to complete a rule will result in loss of point. (They don’t all have to be used together. Example, if my anniversary is this month I can take my free day off of my meal plan so we can go eat out and get ice cream but maybe we hiked that morning so I’d still count my exercise but want to take Sunday off of exercise, Monday off of water, forgot to communicate Wednesday and didn’t do my healthy habit Friday. All other days were perfect, I’d still receive perfect points that week) hopefully that makes sense. Let me know if you have questions, that may have just complicated things but it’s pretty simple. I’ll send a calendar out to help you keep track.
You’ll create your meal plan and healthy habit and submit it to me before the challenge starts.
Also, this isn’t a “weight loss” competition BUT there may just be a prize for the Biggest Loser! If you want in on that part of the challenge, make sure to weigh yourself Monday morning and then again at the end of the challenge so you can submit your percentage.
My Meal Plan:
NO pop
NO fried foods
NO (very limited) processed foods (means better snacking choices)
SMALLER portions
My Healthy Habit:
Meaningful daily prayer
