Canadian "AUGUST" Challenge

[CLOE 0]

Okay Guys, I think everyone was happy with 1 month, so I started the thread. Here are my goals. Good Luck to all!!:canada:

okay my goal

stick to the preop diet and start to exercise three -five times a week ( starting monday) before surgery. Stick to post op diet........which will be hard, Is that okay????

and maybe one day figure out how to make a F 'ing ticker tape!!!!!

Ok... sooooo... mine's not too ambitious. I'm going to try to do something physical for 30 minutes a day, at least 3 times a week. I know, I know.. that's super weak, but, it's all I got!

I am also going to try to lose a grand total of 8 lbs in the entire month. Ugg, that's really pushing it for me, but I'll try!!

Since Wed is the 2nd, at that's my next weigh-in day, I'll aim for 8 lbs less than whatever I weigh on Wed!

(Kim, that's a hard enough challenge, sticking with the post op diet! Totally ok! )

Hey Mandy

Thanks for your support, okay I am fine ith my challenge. I used to feel liek I was a weak person that I decided to have this surgery and Now I don't think so..aftre alll five - six weeks of not sheating and yogurt/cottage cheese ,and then clear fluids, full fluids and then pureed. So I am happy with that and I thank you for your support! Oh and I bet you're too young to know the Mandy tune, it made manilow famous!

Ok, so I exercise 6x a week, 50 minutes of cardio each day and weight training 3x a week. So I'm going to keep that up and I'm going to challenge myself to lose 10 pounds in August. Good luck to all!

Well, I'll go for 10 pounds for the month and 64 oz of Water everyday. I'm not going to make any excercise committment until next month. I have too many irregular things going on this month, and if we get another flippin' hot spell again I'll find it really difficult to go walking. I'll do my best, though.

I know what you mean Devana, I'm not sure where you live but I know where I am, its is suppose to be 36 degrees tommorow BEFORE the humidex:faint: .

Buffie - Now I know why your losing so fast, your exercise routine is huge:omg: , way to go, your my inspiration.

[argon 3]

Oohhh... the heat. I'm sure it's not nearly as hot here as in ON, but WAY more hot than in SK! I hope this is my last 'more fat than I wanna be' summer, cause I can't take it anymore! My BF suggested we go to this hiking area nearby, and I walk it while he runs. I said "Uhh... I dunno, not if it's this damn hot" but... maybe I will do it. It'll be in the evenings, so it shouldn't be AS bad. Guess I HAVE to get my stupid exercise in. GRRR!
