Good luck!!

Username: piqueristiic (pik-we-ris-tic) Hello! This is my first challenge and I am really looking forward to reading everyone's posts ----- BACKSTORY: I've had rather unhealthy habits for the past 5 or so years. I'm going to use this challenge to work on my disordered eating and hopefully start to form a regular, healthier eating pattern. ----- GOALS: I actually have quite a few goals I want to accomplish but for the challenge I will focus on 4. 1. Create and follow a meal plan for at least 5 days per week. 2. A maximum of 2 cheat servings (portions) per week. 3. Increase back squat by at least 20 lbs for 6 reps. 4. Make it to Week 10 of my Learn Spanish program. ----- PLAN: 1. Create a food journal. Schedule 5 to 6 meal times for the day. Must have a meal/snack at each time. Try not to eat at other periods during the day. 2. Only stock healthy foods at home. Try to limit impulse bakery purchases, etc. 3. Work on squats at least twice a week. 4. Work on it everyday. Only a minimum of 10 minutes each and every day. ----- MARKING SCHEME: 1. A: Create and stick to the schedule 5x a week. B: Create the schedule 5x a week. C: Have less than 3 infractions (not eating at scheduled times) per week. F: Have 4 or more infractions per week. 2. A: 0 - 2 cheat foods (serving size = one cheat) per week B: 3 cheat foods per week F: 4+ cheat foods per week 3. A: Increase back squat by 20 lbs x6. B: +20 lbs x3. F: Anything less than that. 4. A: Know up to Week 10. B: Week 8. F: Anything less than that.

I clicked on your thread and realized 2 of our goals are the very same! Increase back squat and learn Spanish. I don't have any Audio books but I do use BBC UK - Languages. It's a free 12 week program on their site called Mi Vida Loca and it's exciting how it teaches you; well, to me anyway. Maybe that'll help you as well? Because it provides vocabulary, pronounciation guides, grammar, etc. Anyway, good luck with your goals!
