Another Whole Life Challenge is beginning in 5 days! The Challenge is a bit different, but mostly the same. The biggest difference for me will be that I was able to invite my friends and family to become part of my team to help them and to help me! Joe has signed up as well as some other fantastic friends.
I am looking forward to this Spring Challenge for different reasons than the last. I have regressed back to drinking Diet Coke and not paying as close attention to the amount of sugar I have been eating. I feel like I need something to focus on other than the negative things in my life.
Winter also happens to be the hardest time of the year for me, particularly January and February. I tend to pack on the winter weight then, which leads to self-disgust, which leads to an "I don't care" attitude about my eating, which leads to more self- disgust.....yeah-it's a fantastic catch-22! Being in the middle of nowhere Iowa doesn't give me much to keep my mind off all that or to keep me busy.
Joe and I have already begun the process of emptying the cupboards and refrigerator of non-WLC (Whole Life Challenge) compliant foods. He is a bit more concerned about having enough to eat that he likes than I am. I know we can do this, and I know it will definitely be a challenge--makes sense they named it that, right?!
I will continue to post here about our adventure with the Challenge and other adventures that come up.
Stay tuned.......
