I have decided to start a new challenge tomorrow! It's for 21 days, so it's not forever and to me that makes it easier to stick to. I've done the no junk food thing before, but recently I've been just eating whatever. I did really good my whole pregnancy with barely any soda, and the last couple of weeks I've been so tired I have had quite a bit of it.
I have about 15 pounds left to go before getting back to pre-pregnancy weight, which isn't too bad. I think doing this challenge will really help get there, plus I've started taking walks every day and working out slowly. If you would like to see more tips I have for post partum weight loss, check out this post.
So who wants to do the challenge with me!?
(I might be linking to some of these lovely parties)
Good for you! Ummmm 21 days starting tomorrow? Can't do it right now... but maybe sometime soon (I'm knee-deep in birthday season and I can say no to cake but not 4 times over)!
ReplyDeleteI'll be cheering you on.

Birthday cake would be too good to pass up :) I had my last "treat" I was going to eat last night but I forgot...guess I'll have to save it for 3 weeks! lol
DeleteHave a great week :)
I'll do this with you...in six weeks once I have this baby lol! But seriously, that's so awesome that you only have 15 lbs to go after JUST having the twins. I didn't lose my baby weight after my first daughter until she was about a year old. I'm thinking this time I'll lose it faster just because I'll still be running around after a toddler!
ReplyDeleteI'll do it again in 6 weeks with you :P
DeleteI'm sure you will lose it much faster this time, it's a lot of work having a toddler and a new baby!
You go girl!!! Let me know how it goes. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I will be sure to update :)
DeleteI can't do that challenge right now, but I am doing a 21 day challenge for exercising everyday. Would could still help motivate each other!

That's great! We for sure should help to motivate each other! Exercising every day sounds harder! I might have to do something like that in a couple of weeks though :)
DeleteGreat challange! I wish you much health through it. For me, once I take all the crappy food out of my system I don't tend to crave it. Kiss those 15lbs goodbye, lil mama. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm hoping its the same way for me once I stop eating it for awhile :)
Deletegood luck!! I do this from time to time as well =)
ReplyDeleteI love this!! I am late in the day but I am on board!!
ReplyDeleteI just told my husbad (he is driving and I am reading blogs-awesome) and he said "what about those two twizzlers?" So, we will be on board for 20.5 days lol
That's awesome! lol. I will be updating every once in a while to see how it's been going! One day down...20 more to go :)
DeleteThis looks awesome! I think I may do it once school starts next week. That way when I'm grocery shopping I'll just axe out all the bad stuff. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea! We still have some junk food in the house, I'm hoping my husband will eat it up lol. Maybe I can convince him not to buy any for awhile :)
DeleteI think you will see great results! We really don't need those foods anyway. I have already been off those foods for a while and feel so much better.

That's great! I'm hoping to continue the healthier eating once the 21 days is up as well :)
DeleteI would love to do it, but with me hitting my sixth month of pregnancy, I can't imagine going without junk food!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up at Fitness Friday {10}: http://www.100lbcountdown.com/health-and-wellness/fitness-friday-10-stretching-those-boundaries/
Oh I would never do this during pregnancy! lol, you are already going through enough, some junk food is necessary :)
DeleteI'm here to say.......it can be done. I've given up most of that junk food for good and it's been about a year. I was horribly addicted to sugar and diet soda and it was making me sick. I gave it up and I feel so much better and have so much more energy now. It has taken a while, but I lost 30 pounds without dieting. Nice side-effect of simply eating better food. Thanks for sharing this at our Get Fit Friday. I hope to see you again. I will share this with my readers on my FB page. We need to get more folks to join your challenge. What a great thing to start! I am cheering you on!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing! You must have some awesome self-control to be able to cut junk food out like that! Hopefully I will be able to keep it up after the 21 days are up as well :)
DeleteStephanie! This is so great that you are doing this challenge! Sounds like an awesome idea! Way to motivate yourself to get the weight down and get healthy! You can probably guess why I would love your blog so much. It coincides with my theme of my blog for healthy living! I'm all about helping others to do it and encouraging people so I'm very happy for you! Thanks for linking up to the Get Fit Friday hop. I'm following you now on everything! <3
ReplyDeleteThat's great! Thanks for the follow :)
