    6 week fitness challenge - GOD HELP ME.

    I signed up for a Warrior 6 week fitness challenge. The group is all Mom's of all ages and fitness levels. We are committed to drinking 60+ ounces of water a day.. eating a paleo type diet, exercising (at classes) 4 times a week.. and making a good choice and losing a bad choice each week. Yesterday I went to a strength group session which was hard. .but not miserable. Today I did an outdoor class.. that was mainly sprints and core workout.. OMG.. I am so proud that I didn't puke. I am 51 years old.. and this is rough.. but I didn't die.. so tomorrow is another day. Vegas in 10 days is going to be tough.... but I will make good choices for breakfast and lunch - dinner I may have some carbs and drinks. If anyone has any tips, ideas, suggestions.. let me hear it.

    Damn good luck in this venture Vegas would be the hardest place to try to stick to a diet.

    Good luck on your challenge.

    The hardest part for me would be drinking 60 ounces of water a day. Many days I don't any water at all unless you count the ten cups of coffee that I drink a day lol

    Take one day at a time. Focus only on today. 6 weeks is not long at all.....24 workout periods. Don't kill yourself from the get go. You can and will do this!! be sure after your workout to drink recovery drink of some kind. Your body is most ready for replenishment within the first hour after your workout... Find something good to drink. I'll blend a banana with it sometimes......you won't feel like going full bore each day and that's ok..... Just do it!!!

    Like Handpayhopeful said, take it one day at a time and go at the pace that is right for you. As far as Vegas, don't beat yourself up while you're on vacation. Try to make better choices but don't stress out about it. Plus, you'll get plenty of walking in while you're there. Get right back to you regular routine once you get home.

    Also, I know this is only a six week challenge but try to look at it as a lifestyle. You don't want to erase all your hard work once the challenge is over. You got this!!

    Day 4 almost in the books. Prepped a healthy dinner.. Drank all my water, no coffee (day 4 Whoop whoop), going to Yoga tonight.. and last by not least.. I DID NOT EAT the homemade cupcakes that a co-worker brought into today- pumpkin spice and caramel apple. Down almost 4 lbs. I know it is water weight.. but it is definately a MOTIVATOR! Thanks Jokers for all your support and advice!
