10,000 Steps for 100 Days

So Adam and I are starting this program tomorrow. Craziness! I can't believe that we just thought of it a few short days ago, and now we are doing it!

The real crazy thing is that I CAN'T HAVE DIET COKE. Well I D-E-C-I-D-E-D to not have it. You might be thinking......am I out of my mind? Hell yes!

I just need something. I know its stupid but just eating right and exercising just doesn't motivate me. For some reason I think I have to be doing some program or something like that. I need a project to keep me motivated.

So I bought some posterboard and we are going to weigh every week. We will track every day that we do the 10,000 steps which will be every day damnit! And then we will track our weight. Adam and I are both doing this which is awesome! I'm excited to get his help and support. And it will be tough.

That is a lot of freakin steps people! Even days I went to the gym I didn't get it. When I tried to get that before I think it took like 1 ½ hours working out or 45 minutes and then a couple of walks during the day. Our Saturday cheat is going to be cut in half! And did I mention I'm not having Diet Coke!!!!!!


RULES:
  • 10,000 Steps Daily (EVERY DAY) for 100 days
  • ½ Cheats on Saturday night only
  • 8 glasses water daily
  • NO SODA POP (sad really)
REWARDS:
  • $100 if 15 pounds lost
  • $100 if we do 10,000 steps daily

Oh and I got a heart monitor which I'm excited about.

69 = Heart Rate
Max Heart Rate = 185
69/185 = 37% Relative Heart Rate

My Fat Burning Target Zone = 102-120

This is a really cool way to get where you want to go! So excited for you both. I feel you with the diet coke!!! I am going on 4 weeks of no smoking and it is really hard some days and not so hard at all others. I wish you will power when you have a time when it is in short supply.
