I've decided I am going to follow along with the challenge. The rest of you challenge-takers are just too inpsiring for me! Besides, cute little aliens greatly amuse me. ;) These are my challenge goals, reposted from the forum:
Goal #1: Get my bodyfat percentage out of obese and into the overweight category. My weight is down into overweight, but my bfp has a few points to go. To do this I need to ramp up the strength training/ab workouts/vigorous cardio.
Goal #2: Start planning my meals ahead of time. Get a menu planner for this. When I put thought and love into my meals I lose weight faster. I also waste less food.
Goal #3: Do the dishes! No, seriously, my hatred for dish-washing is sometimes a real obstacle in weight loss. I let the dishes build up until there are not enough left to cook, and then I eat an unbalanced meal of processed food so I don't have to do them. Embarrassing, but its a long time problem that I keep conquering but it keeps coming back. So, this is very unorthodox and extreme, but, as a single person who rarely needs more than one of any kind of dish or utensil, my plan is to pack up the extras and put them in the closet. That way, there were only be one plate, one bowl, one fork, one spoon in the sink, and I WILL HAVE TO WASH THEM!! But, to do so won't be so overwhelming that I will be tempted to skip the task and eat health food store cookies for breakfast instead.
I tried to walk to the dollar store, but didn't make it because a part of the travel is dangerous for walkers. I'll have to get my menu planner later in the car.

you, too, huh? Well I finally did them, and I did put some of them away in a box. And I realized, I really will never need as many as I have. They are just here to build up in the sink! So my eventual goal is to get rid of some of them, too. I would pay someone to do them if I had someone. :) :D re: explorers. I am more than happy to jump on board anytime!

Oh, thanks girls! :) And thanks for appreciating my idea, BadAndee. I was afraid everyone was going to think I am completely weird. :)

Wow! I need to work on #3 as well, but not because it impedes on my cooking but because it would make it a lot easier. I get so behind on dishes! I've heard that keeping out only as many dishes as you need to use is helpful in eliminating clutter. I haven't tried it but it sounds like a great idea.
