Winter Challenge 0ct 1- Dec 31

In order to keep myself accountable, I've decided to do the winter challenge on Nappturality. The goal is to work out from Oct 1 - Dec 31.


So My goal for the winter challenge from Oct 1 - Dec 31 is to...............
1) Get down to 140lbs. I'll have to weigh myself to see where I'm at now. I thinking 165lbs. Seem like I've been at this weight for the longest.
2) Get toner
3) Build muscle and get stronger.

I will continue with my current workout plan. I will do cardio 5 days a week, weight train 3 x a week and start back cooking and eating healthier. Also for Oct no more drinking soda. Water and green tea only. Eliminate chicken from my diet and eat only Fish, Tuna and Salmon

Happy Training everyone!!!!!!!!
