After Four Days of the Challenge

This challenge is having exactly the effect on me that I imagined it would. It is keeping me on track, and motivating me to live a more healthy lifestyle than I have been able to do on my own.

I have exercised 30 minutes all four days (walked three days and did 30 minutes of stairclimbing and hand weights one day). I have gotten seven hours of sleep all but the first day. I have gotten most of the food points, and am definitely eating in a more nutricious way--although I will give up my "no sweets" point today so I can help celebrate Darin's 40th birthday this evening! I have drunk around 48 oz of water every day. My weight has started to go down, and I feel great!

Thanks for starting this challenge, Audrey, and thanks to all of you who have joined, even if you aren't interested in making all the changes that the challenge proposes. :)
