Wellness Challenge 2010

I signed up for a Wellness Challenge online. I have to do 10 things/day to earn 10 points/day. There are 56 of us, each paid $10...and the winner wins most of it!!!
So here is the challenge, in case you feel inspired to join me or pity me! I started on Monday, and as of now, Wednesday, I haven't lost a point...yet!
1-No sweets, no crap food, fast foods, sugared cereal . I'm doing the point system from Weight Watchers right now,(since Pere Noel brought me 5lbs this season, thanks a lot!), so that makes it okay...although you can eat whatever you want on WW, it's just that one cookie will be like 3 points and here, it's a no no.
2-No soda. I'm not an addict, I like Dr Pepper, but I'm okay. I do get one free point in each category each week, so I can have my DP on my date night.
3- 2 servings of Veggie and Fruits. Now there is a good thing, amazing how hard it can be at times though! Good thing I like soup and that my lemon and orange trees are feeding me!
4-45 min of exercise. Hello P90X!!! I am so sore, good thing is, with P90X, you work something different everyday, so the soreness will never be general, but always to a specific area (like my chest right now...will it lift 'em back to my 20's look???...boobs I'm talking about) or bad thing, you will always have something that hurts!!!!
5-48 oz of water. Do you know how much that makes me pee!!!!! Hold on, gotta take a break...
6- Journaling...or blogging for today. I do like that, so it's okay.
7- 15 min of spiritual reading. Can't go wrong with that.
8- No food after 8:00 pm....so no sneaking just a little crumb of lemon bars right before bed, nope, not me!
9- Giving appreciation to someone. So if you get a random email from me telling you how great you are and how much I appreciate you in my life...thanks for the point!
10-Work on weekly project. That can be tough, there is always so much to do, but not always so much energy for it. So far, I've finished the bathroom floors (pictures to come) and reorganized my coupons.

So there you have it: I'm a water-logged-appreciative-organized-spiritually-fit-healthy-blogger to be! Challenge ends end of April. If you see me passed out on the side of the road from a 45 minute jog, just give me a carrot, a banana and some water and let me thank you...that'll give me 4 extra points! Now off to caulking the bathroom floor!!!!

Now that is something to aspire to! Way to go! I will route for you all the way! Let me know how it goes. My goal right now is to do at least 30 minutes of exercise a day, but I just can't seem to give up the junk -

Good luck! I'm gonna try to mirror you in all of that good stuff but I'm not gonna commit! :)
