- MAIN - Survive & thrive! ->Do what I have to and then do some more. 4/4 exercise a week. I usually do one group lesson on Wednesdays (either bootcamp or bodypump) and work out in the gym 1-2 times a week by myself. I'm currently squatting 45 kgs, my weight is around 62 kgs. I wonder if I can get up to bodyweight during this challenge (Not my main goal by any means, but it would be great). The amount of exercise is what's important here, though. One of four workouts can be a simple longish walk. - SUB1 -> More time in the evenings… Do not go to bed before 10 pm 6 days a week. (Use extra time for reading, cooking/baking, colouring, playing music) Ah, I love me some sleep. Meds MIGHT be playing into this, but I prefer to sleep for ridiculous amounts of time. Especially if I'm not feeling well (mentally) or if I'm simply very.bored. I'm known to go to bed at 8 pm (or even earlier at times) just because I don't feel like doing anything else. I rarely get up before 7, most days 8-ish. This means that not going to bed before 10 pm (which means I can get ready at around 9.30) should still mean plenty of hours of sleep. I just want to try Naps in the afternoon are allowed, however. -SUB2 -> Get rid of the sugar. (Yes, this has crept in again. Tbh I can’t be bothered about avoiding grains right now, but I know I can (and like) going without sugar. Let’s re-form that habit! Exceptions: Birthdays of family members (Nephew, my dad). -LIFE -> Create a spreadsheet with LOTS of ideas for the summer holidays. I'm going to get you guys involved As mentioned in the bedtime-goal - I get bored easily. When I do I feel miserable. Summer holidays... (6-7 weeks... teacher-stuff ) TERRIFY me. (Seriously). Obviously I'm looking forward to being able to do my own thing... but I need a bit more planning than just 'let's do what I feel like during the holidays'. So this challenge I want to create a list of things to do/try/achieve during summer. Then next challenge I'll make an actual schedule (keeping 2-3 days a week 'off' and having a general idea of what I'd like to do when.). This should make this summer a lot easier and better than ... ever Spreadsheet of epicness
