Happy Wednesday, Shrinkers!! Can you believe we’re already 3 weeks in to this fabulous 2014 new year’s weight loss challenge? It’s time to step gingerly on to that scale and see the fantastic (hopefully SMALLER) number in store for you this week! If you’re a blogger, please blog and share your link in the comments. We’d love to stop by and give you a virtual high five. If you don’t blog, leave a comment telling us how you’re doing, and also how you did on last week’s mini-challenge.
Did you know that people participating in our current DietBet have already lost over 2,300 POUNDS. That’s right!! Be sure to consider joining our #WLBootcamp Challenge DietBet, Part 2. It starts on January 31st, and if you’re participating in the first DietBet you can roll your final weigh in and winnings over to the new game! SWEET!
If you haven’t found your way over to the Shrinking Jeans Weight Loss Challenge Facebook Group, get over there NOW! It’s so much fun, and there are so many amazing women over there waiting to wrap your in complete and total support. It’s awesome.
The Mini-Challenge
Last week’s mini-challenge was to put together a menu plan for a week and follow it! Did you follow through? Did you stick with it? How did it go?
This week’s challenge is to get a minimum of 7 hours of sleep every night this week. SEVEN. MINIMUM. Eight would be ideal. That means lights out, eyes closed….and no, sitting in bed reading does not count as sleeping! Did you know that sleeping can really affect your weight loss efforts? You might not realize it, but chronic sleep deprivation can cause a whole host of problems, one of which is weight gain, and difficult weight loss.
So put some fresh sheets on your bed, get out your coziest pajamas, and snuggle up early tonight. If you live in the US and are covered in the polar vortex, you don’t have anywhere to go anyway 🙂 #yawn
