Healthy You Challenge Update - Week 10

The short and sweet (but sugar-free, of course) of it:
1) Blue Jeans!
2) Serious Diet Coke reduction, which translates to a serious increase in water intake. I'm getting 8+ glasses of water a day, every day.
3) Diet and exercise were good this week, kind of 'same old, same old', but I could stand to watch my calories a bit more closely. I think getting into Spring (and out of the house) will help with that a lot.
4) The fickle scale was merciful this week, shooting me past the 75-pound mark to Minus 76! Yep, Cammy's got a brand new badge. :-)

Goals for this week are to keep an eye on those calories and to continue to play around with interval training. (I'm sort of at the pre-interval level now.)

And that's my report for this week. Wishing you all a healthy, happy week ahead!

Great job! I'm curious, how long has it taken you to lose 75 pounds, and how much further do you think you're going to go?

(nevermind, I just went backwards and read yesterday's entry too... so, you don't really know yet... but that's not bad. I don't really have an 'end goal' either. I'd like it to be 'when I find a weight I'm comfortable with'... that's sort of nebulous there, and I don't think weight watchers is going to accept it as an answer either... sometimes structure is good, and sometimes it's not.

But the first question still holds!)

Woohoo for you.

Congratulations! 76 must be a delicious feeling - I'm so happy for you. Even though you are tippy toe-ing it, do you feel most habits are ingrained now? For those of us who haven't hit 75 yet, please tell me it is easy! :) And great job on giving up diet coke, I know that isn't easy.

Great job on decreasing the pop and increasing the water.

You will see a difference once you start doing intervals. They really perk up the metabolism.
