Each participant contributes $20 to the Prize Pot.

4 Point Categories: exercise, challenge participation, weight loss challenge & Blog participation.

Exercise: You will receive 1 point for every 30 minutes of exercise for up to 5 hours. Anyone who completes 5 hours will receive 15 points. No extra points will be awarded for hours over 5. Exercise should be intentional and challenging.

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.

Hello Healthy Women!

It has been such a blessing for me to be part of this challenge! A sincere thanks to each of you. I am trying out these new, healthy habits and exercising and feeling much better!

I am not much of a pop drinker but I have wanted juice this week, just because it is on the don't list!

My sister in law is a nurse and has told the pop drinkers in my family that before they drink pop they should drink a glass of water. She also says that it is better to drink the real thing and not the diet versions.

We know we need to drink water and when we drink pop we drink less water so be sure to get your water in and then try to keep the pop in moderation.

Keep up the great work ladies! I hope we keep doing these healthy things forever!!

Rebecca
