MyFitnessPal Challenge

I've been wanting to get into better shape and better health for awhile now. In fact, a lifestyle change was one of my resolutions this year. I am on a better path already with not so many treats and taking the time to work out more frequently... but I still miss days and I still have times when I would rather just sit. And most of those times end up with conversations between Adam and I that go a little something like this...

Adam: Are you going to work out?
Deidre: Probably not...
Adam: You should just do a quick workout.
Deidre: *possibly getting pouty and unpleasant* I had a really long day and right now I just want to sit and relax... I had to set tables and stack chairs and I am just tired now from working all day!
Adam: Okay... Sorry, I am just trying to help you out like you asked me to do.

So... you can see what is wrong with that, right? I asked Adam to hold me accountable. And then I give him a really hard time when he does. So.. to remedy all that I introduce to you...

Because nothing can get my butt kicked into gear like a little competition. My motivator used to be pageants. I knew that if I wanted to win a crown I needed to work hard and be in shape so I didn't scare the judges during swimsuit. But now my motivator will be cold. hard. cash. That's right. You heard me... money! The MyFitnessPal challenge is for anyone and everyone. There will be a $10 buy in to be a part of it, and at the end of the challenge the winner takes it all!

So how do you win? Everything will be based on a point system. 1 Point for Tracking in MyFitnessPal, 1 Point for staying within calories decided with accountability partner, 1 Point for 45 minutes amount of working out, 1 Point for no treats, and 1 Point for drinking 8 glasses of water + reward points based on how you do throughout the week.
