My Health Challenge: Week One #myhc

So, I'm not quite sure how it happened - there was a #followFriday and I started following some people and some people started following me and there was talk about A LOT of pushups and then I stepped on the scale this morning and worked my ass off and agreed to (TRY TO) do 365 pushups by December 31, 2012 here I am. Doing another health challenge of a sort. Apparently @annieology will be doing something over on her blog? I think? And I figured doing a weekly feature will help me accountable-ish?

DAMN! How's that for sounding wishy-washy? Haaaaa!

My plan is to walk for 30 minutes a day, five days a week as outlined in this video. However, my plan is to view this as "walking/nature meditation," NOT *gasp!* exercise. I'm also going to incorporate actual workouts throughout the week as well: yoga (I'd like to do it twice a week, if possible), free weights (again, twice a week), the elliptical, the Wii Fit, Just Dance, maybe finally grow the ovaries to try the damned Zumba game for the Wii I've had far longer than I car to admit, maybe get back to the Tae Bo... I'm super lucky and have LOTS of options, so I shouldn't get bored.

I know I feel better - mentally AND physically - when I'm active regularly. I want to get back to that. Today was the reboot. I stepped on the scale (ugh) and took my measurements (blarg); I'm going to post 'em publicly (*cries real tears*) on a page up top (again, for that bloody accountability shit). I also busted out LoseIt again, even though I'd originally told Chebbar I wasn't going to use it this time around. Oh, and I already got mah first badge:
