I have heard of this challenge from several sources, the first being my cute cousin Cami, and now from my cute friend Cherise. The challenge is as follows:
Physically Better Yourself
1. Exercise at least 45 minutes a day!
2. Get AT LEAST 7 hours of sleep a night (if you are short a little just squeeze a nap in to make up for it)
3. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day
4. No Sugar-there are different ways to do this. We prefer eliminating sugars and white flours (which turn into sugars) to get the most bang for your buck. But if you would like to just do without sugars than you can make that call.
5. No Soda or Junk Food Yes that means no Diet Coke ladies or fast food! Ya we know that will not be an easy point to earn...but you will love yourself and how you feel if you do it.
6. Eat at least 2 servings of fruit and 2 servings of vegetables
7. No eating after 8 p.m.
Emotionally/Spiritually Better Yourself
8. Write in your journal EVERY DAY
9. At least 15 minutes of uplifting reading or scripture study
10. An act of service or random act of kindness, whether it be a small one or a big one do something for someone else that is out of your normal routine.
This starts tomorrow Sept. 27th and ends Nov 21st.
I'm Scared.

ahh! We can do it... Yes we can! :)
oh dear. haha.
You can totally do this! Once you're past the first few days it will be much easier! Good luck!
Hooray!!! Did you sign up, too? My friends that started this are just floored with how many people signed up. This morning at our running group, they said that they were close to 90 people! AWESOME!!!
Okay, at first I thought "Ya, it's doable", and then I remembered my 6 month old is up SIX TIMES A NIGHT! There goes my 7 hours!
I'm glad I am pregnant and have an excuse :) Good luck - you'll do great!
You can do it. I bet you do most of it already! You are amazing and if you can run a marathon, you can do this.
