Roundup, week of April 11th

What Happened Last Week?

An activity goal can help you be more consistent with exercising, it can help you lose weight, and it can take your fitness to the next level. So why not set one if you don't already have one?

We also introduced the 2nd annual Walk-It Challenge, which you might use as your activity goal. If you do, you might be looking for local walking or running events. Here are a few good online resources:

Raceplace Online

Active.com - this is also good for other sports!

Competitor

On the weight loss front, we celebrated a 10 pound star for Erika, Monday Tauni reached her 10% target, and Wednesday Tauni received her 25 pound weight loss award. (By the way, it tickles me when both Taunis receive an award in the same week, which I think has happened before. It sounds like there's one gal running around losing weight at different amounts all over the city.)

So What's Coming Up?

Did you know that people tend to underestimate how much they eat? Probably not shocking. But did you know that it can be 30-50% that we underestimate? Crazy! We'll discuss self-monitoring, and what I'd like to focus on is what we can monitor other than our food intake - we already know that's a slam dunk habit!
