NuLife 60 Day Challenge
Today, January 9th 2012, I will embark on one of the most fulfilling journeys of my fitness career. I am taking part in our annual 60 day Challenge for the 1st time in 5 years. I am asking that you all pray with me through this because, this is not only a physical challenge for me, it is a mental and spiritual challenge for me as well. This is not so much about what I will give up in the next 60 days, this is about what I will gain physically, spiritually and mentally in the next 60 days that I'm truly excited about. The biggest accomplishment for me will be COMPLETING the challenge first and foremost and getting more organized in both my work and home life during this 60 days. I'm taking it as far as posting my weekly weigh ins along with the other members and checking in for my workouts as well. I have vowed to take this one day at a time and utilize this time to organize something in my life at least once per week (paperwork, meals, schedules, housework, office work, etc). As you guys have seen in the past I don't have a great track record for completing my challenges so, this one is important to me because I feel a great need to add this to my bucket list of accomplishments. I also want to buckle down and sculpt this body into the masterpiece I know its capable of being. I am looking forward to GETTING IT DONE and LOOKING good as a reward! See you at the Finish line!
Today's Weight 148.8 & 33.2%
If anyone is interested in joining the challenge with us, you can register at www.nulifefitnesscamp.com or call 216-391-4442 there will be four groups starting jan 9th, jan 16th, jan 23rd, and jan 30th
**The challenge will be based on percentage of weight lost

Stay Focus...Pray...Eat Well
Meanwhile, I myself, still weigh 151 pounds and I am not at all thrilled about that. I should have blasted through the 140s by now. I DO NOT make EXCUSES with you guys, I put it out there because it makes no sense to lie, you can see the progress or lack there of for yourselves. The good news is, the baby started her first week of our new sitter (my aunt) this week and I will be able to put in some WORK and possibly get some things done.
I wanted to share a something with you.......there is a site www.freedieting.com this site has absolutely awesome calculators listed on it that are critical to our weight loss success. There is a daily caloric intake calculator for those of us just wondering how much we should be eating per day. However, there are also calculators for Protein, Carbohydrates and fat. I highly recommend these calculators if you are trying to get your eating under control and better understand what you should be taking in.
I highly recommend you grab you a Polar heart rate monitor/Chest strap whenever you can (or add to your Christmas list) in order to better track how many calories you are burning during your workouts. This will serve as a tool to keep you wanting to burn more but to also help you gage whether or not you've put in enough work to get the results you're looking for. I've been using mines quite often lately. I suggest this particular brand because most Cardio machines (treadmills, ellipticals, etc) will sync with the chest strap and give you an accurate reading on the machine as well.
I also wanted to thank the few ladies that approached me about the blog lately to share how much they enjoy following. It was really what I needed to keep it going because I didn't think anyone really followed it much but now that I know it is missed I will stay on top of it!
