Summer Slim Down Challenge 2015 Info!

I am hosting a Summer Slim Down Challenge that starts MONDAY, March 23!  It will go for 10 weeks, ending Saturday, May 30!  Just in time for SUMMER!  YAY!!

We are following a Biggest Loser outline.  Points are awarded weekly for drinking 8 cups of water, writing down what you eat, 60 minutes of cardio daily, eating 5 fruits & veggies per day, doing the weekly challenge, & coming to weigh in. Eek!  To get maximum points you must follow the guidelines 5/7 days of the week.  If the weigh-ins freak you out, don’t worry, we’re going to be very discreet.

The buy in is $20, since we all do better when we have a little something at stake, am I right?!  There will be small weekly prizes, and overall winners based on highest percentage of weight lost, most points, and most exercise.  Weekly weigh-ins will happen on Saturday mornings, after the initial Monday starting weigh-in on the 23^rd.

Here are the rules, challenges, and the weekly log sheet.  YOU MUST PRINT AND FILL OUT THE LOG SHEET EVERY WEEK, AND BRING IT TO WEIGH-IN.  This is how your points and results are recorded.  Each week we’ll send out an email listing the top 5 places after the Saturday weigh-ins, and the challenge for the week.  If you use myfitnesspal it’s a cinch to copy the meal and calories over to paper.  The paper is old school, but a must.

We will have a weekly group fitness session if anyone’s interested, as well as weekly workouts posted on the Instagram feed @fitnessinreality (follow it).  www.thecleverwoman.net will have tons of resources under the “Fitness in Reality” drop down menu.  There will be nutrition ideas and recipes, workouts, links, and basically way more fitness-related information than you’ll ever want to know!  All these tools will help us  stay on track and reach our goals, whether they be fat loss, muscle gain, body fat percentage, BMI, inches, pounds, dress size, pants size, healthier skin, better nutrition, or all of the above!

This invitation is in no way suggestive as to whether or not anyone feels you need to lose weight…we’re all fabulous!  It is more of an invitation to us all to make better, healthier choices that will positively impact our own lives, and our families, too!  It’s also an excuse to have fun together, too.

I don’t have everyone’s email, and the invitation is open to anyone(female), so if you have a neighbor or friend that wants to join, invite her!  The more the merrier!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO REMEMBER: $20 to join (non-refundable), first weigh in Monday March 23 at my house 9:30-10:30 AM.  We have long-distance weigh-in options, so contact me if you're out of town.

Remember, having a support group of friends on the same journey practically guarantees success!  We’re all in this together. (break in to song…now!)

All you have to do to join us is bring $20 and show up at my house Monday 3/23 from 9:30-10:30 AM.  Remember to invited a friend!

Also none of the money is being kept by anyone, it will all go to prizes.  This could be major, ladies!

Email me if you have any questions.  Hope to see you Monday, bright & early!  Don’t go too crazy this weekend…

Let’s commit!!
