The 6 Week Challenge starts this week! The key words can be found in your weekly (log onto your WW account. Find the Weekly, scroll to the bottom of the first page and look for “This Week’s Word is ______”. 4 out of 6 weeks = a charm!
Last week we talked about breaking up with your sitting routine by standing up. That’s it; just stand up!
Your homework was #standupbreakup – how did you do?
- Tanya works in a busy license plate office and they do a lot of sitting. This week she broke up her sitting routine by standing 30 minutes out of every hour… that’s 4 hours of standing!
- Alicia gets up every time her Versa 2 goes off and also grabs some water or refills her glass. But while she’s sewing she makes sure she has on some good Christian jams so she can get up and boogie when the Spirit grabs her!
- Sandra took her break up to the next level! During every show she watches, she is walking 100 steps, doing 10 counter push ups, doing 10 knee bends.
Bravo ladies, you nailed it!
This Week’s Topic: Lower Your SmartPoints in the Kitchen
What you surround yourself with is what you’re likely to grab, so some small changes to your pantry can make a big difference in your eating habits.
A few ways to do this:
- Switch from frying your foods to grilling, broiling, steaming, or using your Simple Living Air Fryer
- Make substitutions
- Adding spices for flavor (my favorite is Dak’s Spices Everything But Tha Salt)
- Use a quick spritz of good-for-you oils instead of pouring it on (I love my Evo spray bottle for this)
