On your mark... Get Set... GO!!!

Today is the first day of our 100 days 100% NS Challenge... I MOST admit I'm a bit nervous about this... 'cause I want to lose weight SO badly that I would feel REALLY bad if I 'fail'... On the other side, that nervousness leads me to REALLY focus on my goal of reaching ONEderland by December 31, 2006. Since I'm in the middle of my 101 in 1001 mission I don't NEED to make any resolutions for this new year... I just have to continue completing the tasks on my 101 in 1001 list. BUT my MAIN GOAL in 2006 is hitting ONEderland. For those who doesn't have a clue of what ONEderland is... By December 31, 2006 I want to weigh in less than 200 lbs... I want my weight number to start with ONE... not TWO. You are in ONEDERLAND when you weigh in the 100's... Is my only goal doable? Yes it is! Let's do the math.

Today's Weigh In 252.5 New Years Eve weigh in + 1.5 Gained during the weekend... Yes, I know. My bad! = 254 Today's weigh in

I most lose 254 Today's weigh in - 198 My goal = 56 Pounds I most lose to hit onederland 56 / 52 = 1.0769230

I just have to lose 1.077 pound weekly... to hit ONEderland! As part of the 100 days 100% NS challenge. I will...

• Eat all 4 Nutrisystem items (or comparable items)
• Eat all my servings of proteins, vegetables and fruits.
• Drink all 8 glasses of water (at a minimum)
• Exercise at SOMETHING at least 3 times per week for 60 minutes
• Not eat foods that are not on Nutrisystem's food program/plan. *fingers crosed*
• What happens if I slip?
  I'll get a hug from my Nutri Friends. Plain and simple!
• What happens if I jump off the wagon and run screaming in the other direction? My Nutri Brothers and Sisters will welcome me back with a hug and LOTS of support- as long as I work to get back to 100% AND support others who are doing 100%.

And last... but NOT least. All members of the 100 days 100% NS challenge recognize God (specifically the Christian Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit) as THE solution to our emotional and spiritual needs. We, freely and openly, credit HIM for our successes and request help when we fail. We wholeheartedly recognize that it is the spiritual and emotional health that we have reached through the past years that is allowing us to at last work on the physical manifestation of our problems that showed up as excess weight. Because the Lord is by my side and I am commited to succed, I WILL REACH ONEDERLAND IN 2006.
