Time to start fresh the 10 in 6 after the template of our predecessor! Spread the word to your girlfriends- we'll start with the first check-in on Monday, August 17th. Here are the first steps:
1. Create a free personal profile on the My Fitness Pal website. This is what you'll use to enter in your goals, weight, measurements, calories consumed, calories burned, etc. If you already have a profile, zero it out by deleting the past weight measurements. Go to the Tools page and get the code for your badge.
2. Email me (sarah.a.weight at hotmail dot com) your name, badge code, and what you want in your little bio on the right side bar. I'd love to see what your favorite workout is, what your favorite healthy snack is, what your goal for this challenge is, and what your reward will be when you succeed. Also let me know if you want your email address added to the blog so that whenever another challenger posts, it goes straight into your email inbox (I suggest this b/c it keeps the challenge at the forefront of your mind).
3. On the morning of Monday, August 17th, log into your My Fitness Pal profile and enter your starting weight and all the starting measurements you want to. Start tracking calories & workouts. Check in daily to the blog here to let us know how it's going, what you're up to, share your successes & encouragement, etc. I'll ask for specific things in the posts for you to add your comment on or to check-in on (weigh-ins/check-ins will be on Mondays, workout-sharing on Tuesdays, recipe-sharing on Wednesdays, etc.).
Changes from the previous 10 in 6 blogs (Marin, you rock!!!) would be: check-ins on Mondays so we don't trash all weekend & bios permanently posted on the right side-bar so we can keep all the names & identies straight. Weights will be private (unless you want to share) b/c we'll just be reporting how much weight and how many inches we drop; no one will know the starting #s. No references to last names, no links to your private blogs, no photos, etc. Let me know your favorite songs on your workout play list and I'll add them to the workout playlist playing at the bottom of the blog. I'm hoping to do a few side challenges for fun prizes like Marin did, though ;)
I'm so excited to start the new challenge! Ok, you have a week and a half to spread the word & recruit all of our challengers! :)
