Chermside Wellness Challenge

The Members of Chermside Ward in an effort to be more healthy and to follow the Word of Wisdom found in D&C 89 to receive the promise given there:

"And all saints who remember to keep and do these sayings, walking in obedience to the commandments, shall receive health in their navel and marrow to their bones; and shall find wisdom and great treasures of knowlege, even hidden treasures; and shall run and not be weary, and shall walk and not faint. And I, the Lord, give unto them a promise, that the destroying angel shall pass by them, as the children of Israel, and not slay them. Amen." D&C 89:18-21

My Goals

Here are my goals. Maybe this will give you a good idea of what is expected in the challenge.

1. 30 min cardio or strength training (I walk or do Pilates or swim or a combination of several things, walking up and down stairs consecutively, kegels, etc.)
2. No sugar (my general rule is no more than 4 g sugar per serving and no sugar listed as one of the first 2 ingredients unless it's a fruit. Basically, I'm avoiding refined sugars in desserts, biscuits, etc, but I also don't eat sweetened yogurt unless sweetened by fruit.
3. Multi-vitamin (I have trouble remembering to take my pre-natal vitamins, so this helps me remember)
4. 7 hours of sleep (This is a great one for me since I have a tendency to go to bed too late and get up too early)
5. 2 litres of water
6. 5 fruits or veggies
7. 15 min. personal time (This is sometimes the toughest one, but I count driving in the car without kids and not listening to anything, reading a good book or playing the piano)
8. Kiss my husband (definitely healthy)
9. Contact a friend
10. Write in journal
