Believe and Achieve Anything!

  Skipped drinking the water today and the eye darkness came back right away.  Challenge does not start until March 1 so I still have time to start drinking again.  I think the water drinking will remain the most difficult part of this challenge, plus the 45 min outdoor work out.  Seeing results like this though encourages me to try my best to stick with it 😉

 Challenges are easier with friends!  We have a couple weeks to practice the idea of cold outdoor workouts.  Robin and I don't get much physical activity so she invited me to go walking with her in the mornings after she drops her kids off at school.  It was pretty cold out, we made it 25 min.  We have a couple weeks to work on lasting longer in the cold!  I don't think I would have a chance of meeting this challenge without having friends by my side!  Let's hope that by March my bladder adjusts to all the water I have been drinking, uptaking my fluid to a gallon a day!

 Wow! In just one day of upping my water intake, my very black circles under my eyes have improved so much!  Yesterday had a lot of bathroom trips though, hoping that my bladder gets use to this and will stop having to pee all day.  I am going through an ulcerative Colitis flare up as I begin this challenge.  I am hopeful that it will not stop me from meeting my goals.  My outdoor work out is not going to be hard core.  Either walking the neighborhood with the dog or doing snow-shoveling in the drive way.  Its more important to me to create the self discipline to get outside and be active, then to have a really tough work out that I will fail at committing to.  Hoping friends will want to join me on some walks to make the outdoor cold part a little more manageable ❤️ Glad the weather will warm up as the challenge progresses!  Looking forward to watching my progress unfold 😊

 Hi, my name is Judy.  I have recently decided to join our church group in the 75 Day Hard Challenge!  Some of the tasks seem monumental to me and the voice in the back of my head is saying you cannot do this!  I am creating this blog to personally journal my 75 days of challenges, to encourage myself to stick with it, to show myself my progress, and to share with others who may find it useful in some way. The challenge begins on March 1/2021 and it goes for 75 days straight!  The rules are basic but mentally and physically tough for me to imagine completing.  As someone who has very little physical activity in her life, very little motivation and very little personal discipline, this will no doubt be a very hard thing for me to stick with.   With the support of church friends and family, I hope to be able to prove to myself that I can do this!  If I mess up one day, I go back to day 1! No room for mistakes, no cheating, and no forgetting to follow a step!   Here are the steps: 1) Drin
