Weight Challenge: If you maintain your weight for the week you get 5 points. If you lose any weight for the week you get 8 points.

This challenge is about more than weight loss, we want the focus to be on creating good habits and feeling healthy. But we recognize that some of you may desire to lose weight and you should be rewarded with additional points.

Blog Participation: You will receive 5 points for each week that you post an update, thoughts or motivation on the blog. Setting goals works best when you have people to share with and report to, use the blog as a way to motivate and encourage each other.

Make up Points: If you miss a day of the weekly challenge you can earn 4 make up points. If you do the challenge from the previous week, every day for the current week, you can get 4 bonus points. You must do the previous weeks challenge in addition to the current week and do it perfectly to earn the 4 points. You are only eligible for the bonus points if you missed a day from the previous week, you cannot have a perfect week and keep doing the previous weeks challenge to earn 4 additional points.

Snacks:

Since I love to snack and since I really want to do well on this healthy challenge I had to think of new things to snack on. Yesterday I had two very good and healthy snacks. 1- peppers: smiths has a huge bag of small red, orange, and yellow peppers that taste very good for only 5$. 2- lunch meat: I ate 6 whole pieces of ham which was very filling it is only 45 calories and has 9 grams of protein. I felt very full after that. There are plenty of ways to eat lots of food and stay healthy at the same time.
