 | from Paige Waehner It's hard to believe we're almost at the end of our challenge, isn't it? My how the time flies when you're busy getting healthy. Today's challenges are going to be tough, so I hope you're ready for them. You have a new cardio workout to try as well as a new (and relaxing) flexibility workout. The strength workout I've recommended is also more advanced than previous challenges, so use your best judgment here and decide if you're ready for it. If not, I've given you some other alternatives. If you'd done all the previous challenges, I have no doubt you'll succeed today as well. |

After one meal today, take 5-10 minutes to write in your journal recording what you ate, how much you ate and how you felt after eating (too full? satisfied? still hungry?). You did this challenge back on Day 11, so this should look familiar. You might take some time to go back to that journal entry and read what you wrote then. Compare that to now and ask yourself if you made any improvements since then. Remember to write down just one thing you could do to improve that meal. Could you use a lighter dressing or sauce or try a lower-calorie soup? Really look at your meal and find just one way to improve it. | |

You can also use the checklist to make substitutions for any challenges that didn't work for you or create even more challenges for yourself. | |
