Winter Shape Up Challenge: Your Progress
We’re in Week 6, and you all are still going strong! Here’s a sampling of your successes:
Meghan: “I managed to completely shatter my previous 5K PR yesterday. I ran the race in 26 minutes — almost TWO WHOLE MINUTES faster than my record.”
Brieann: “This week was really solid and I definitely made progress. It feels like making healthy decisions is getting easier each week.”
Mariel: “I was kind of in disbelief when I stepped on the scale this morning, but I checked it like four times, and it was true. That brings my total weight loss to 8 lbs!”
Ann: “That’s a total of 5 lbs lost since I started. Pretty awesome considering I would probably be 5lbs heavier than my starting weight by now if I had not joined this challenge.”
Kelly: “I am proud of my progress in the past week. I worked out most days, made wise decisions regarding food, and lost 1 pound! 1 full pound!!”
Sharon: “I definitely started Jillian’s DVD and it kicks my butt!”
Nathalie: “I had a successful Vegan Day on Thursday! It was a lot harder than I thought, but I did it! I think I’m going to have a Vegan Day once a week from now on.”
V: “I did a really good job serving myself (or only eating) a reasonable portion size at every meal. In particular, making sure I didn’t overdo it at dinner helped me feel less lethargic the rest of the evening.”
Maggie E.: “I ran a marathon relay yesterday - I ran about 8 miles, which is the farthest that I’ve run since I began my training for the half marathon.”
Kelsey: “I am addicted to green monsters. WOW. And…I got my boy hooked on them too!”
