What could you accomplish in 30 days if you had nothing stopping you? This is a question I have heard several times and I have always come up with an answer but never followed through. I decided once I was going to take a picture every day to see my progress as I lost weight. I lasted 2 weeks.
When it came to my all juice cleanse I lasted, I think, about 5 hours. I actually did good eating clean, I made it 3 weeks. Then a friend made a comment on how hard it is to go places when eating like that and it was all over for me.
Sure there have been times I have followed through on things. After I graduated college I worked like crazy and took a trip to Australia and New Zealand. Another time I worked really hard and lost about 60 pounds. I felt AMAZING. Then I met my husband, moved away from my family, got depressed, and gained it all back. Okay so I may have had 3 little boys in that time.
So here is the deal I know my reason to lose the weight, to get healthy. I don't need to be a size 6 I just want to be healthy and have energy around my boys. If you have little boys or have seen little boys you know they have lots of energy! My problem is that I need the motivation. I need someone to be walking along side me telling me to keep going. I know it may be asking a lot but I need to hear from the people going through the same thing as me.
My challenge to you is to take some thing you want to accomplish and for the next 30 days work on it. If you reach your goal before 30 days that is awesome but the point is to start. Is it 30 days of no pop ( or soda, depending on where you live), 30 days of no fried food, 30 days of working out, 30 days of no carbs, or no sugar? Whatever it is, whatever you want to accomplish lets get started. I have a lot I would like to do for this little challenge, eat clean, no dairy, exercise everyday, or get up early. I am going to choose one. Hopefully completely one will get me motivated on the others. For the next 30 days I am going to jump on the treadmill for 30 minutes everyday.
Find a friend or loved one who is willing to do this challenge with you. It makes it easier when you have someone who can keep you encouraged and motivated. Plus you can have a little competition with a reward at the end! So let me know what your challenge is. What can I do to keep you motivated? I'm excited to see what we can accomplish in 30 days! Keep some kind of journal so you can look back some day.
I am going to try to post daily either her on my blog or on youtube.com so make sure you check back to see how things are going!
