10 Day Challenge

My favorite teacher is Ms. Haynes. I have had her every year in high school. One project that she does every semester in all her classes is the 10 Day Challenge. She started it 5 semesters ago. The challenge is to pick something healthy to work on for 10 days in a row. It has to be challenging, hence the name. The following are my challenges the last 4 semesters:
  1. no chocolate
  2. at least 7 hours of sleep a night
  3. be nice to my brother
  4. read at least 2 chapters in my scriptures every day
My challenge this semester is to eat 3 servings of veggies a day. I HATE veggies. I never eat them. It is currently day 8 in the challenge.
RESULTS:
  • I still find veggies revolting.
  • I realize that I need the nutrients, so I will start taking vitamins.
  • I have lost 4 pounds in 8 days! That's insane! That's half of what I lost after a whole month of no sweets.

I will miss these challenges. I have learned a lot from the 5 that I have done.

Thats so cool! I need to eat more veggies. I'm sure it would do a world of difference for me. But oh man, I hate them! lol
