Alright so I'm going to do this '21 Day Junk Food Free Challenge" (but not really)
with some modifications - the rules call for absolutely nothing “junk”, so no candy chocolate cakes cookies doughnuts muffins white bread chips fast food ice cream etc. etc… but I don’t play that. Not saying it’s a bad thing at all! For some people I can see how this would be a good motivation, a good challenge, something useful. But I personally am not interested in giving some of those things up completely for any period of time. I’m of the camp that indulging my cravings once in a while keeps me sane, if not the most perfectly healthy I could be.
But I REALLY want to do one of these “one a day question” challenges to keep me consistently updating this and striving to be healthier, and this one had better questions than the other “weight loss” ones I’ve seen.
So the rules of my “21 Day Challenge” are going to be this
- do my morning exercise regiment every day, as soon as I wake up
- walk OR do yoga for 10 minutes every day (strive for both!)
- 0 meals from fast food restaurants
- ‘junk’ limited to once a day, in moderate servings
- absolutely no soda! (this is one thing I will absolutely completely restrict!)
- meat that is not fish limited to once a week at MOST
- tell myself (and tumblr) something positive about me every day!
I think those sound like things that will be challenging, but that I am reasonably capable of achieving :) Hopefully after the completion of this challenge, I will figure out rules for a new, more challenging one!
The questions for the days (in case anybody else wants to do it) (and thanks to fatburnedprideearned, from whom I found them! and who is also doing the challenge and you should all go encourage (: ) are as follows, with some slight modifications:
Day 1: What is your current weight and what would you like it to be?
Day 2: What is your favourite part of your body?
Day 3: If you were at your ultimate goalweight right now what piece of clothing you buy/wear?
Day 4: What is your exercise routine?
Day 5: What is your favourite healthy snack or treat?
Day 6: Do you binge? If so, when was your last binge and how did it make you feel?
Day 7: What was the last compliment you remember receiving? What is the best compliment you could possibly receive?
Day 8: Have you got any tips or tricks to keep yourself from eating junk food breaking the rules?
Day 9: What is your favourite type of exercise?
Day 10: What do you like in a partner?
Day 11: Which part of being healthy do you struggle with the most? Diet? Exercise? Sleep? Mental Health?
Day 12: Why do you want to be fit?
Day 13: Do you have a special event coming up that you want to look good for? Who would you like to impress?
Day 14: Do you like yourself? How do you deal with negative feelings? What do you like the most about yourself?

Day 16: Do you do weight training cardio or both? What is you favourite and least favourite exercise?
Day 17: What are your top 3 reasons for being healthy?
Day 18: Do you go to the beach? Do you wear a bikini? How do you feel when you do so? Would you like to feel differently?

Day 20: What is your ultimate fitness goal?
Day 21: How do you feel? Have you noticed any changes in yourself?
