Give up something for a week MQ/healthy study (1 Viewer)

[clairegirl]

Hey guys,

This idea came from the one and only glitter... but I thought why not spread the invite to everyone else on MQ BOS that isn't part of the regular MQ/Healthy/study thread.

Challenge: Give up something that you can't live without (preferably food)
Aim: improve self-restraint, get healthier,

Mine

Challenge: Give up cheesecake, fried anything and chocolate from now until end of exams.

note: it doesn't have to be until exam time, it can be just for a week.

Oooh that sounds interesting

I'll give up soft drink as well oh and alcahol, at least until after exam time

I don't drink juice either, its just water and milk from now on

Juice is sooo sugary and everyone thinks its soo good for you but if you look on the back, its pretty much equivalent to a can of tuna or a glass of chocolate milk, in terms of kilojoules (energy) and sugar carbs

i would personally rather have the milk or the tuna than a glass of juice.

I'll give up soft drinks, and steaks for a couple of weeks.

soft drinks is easy for me to give up since i never drink it I love juices and teas though.

I think i will try giving up on instant noodles until exams are over.

Yay good idea Anne, let's have everyone in on the party!

I don't trust myself to give up anything until after exams though

But when it does happen, I'm interested in giving up any maccas food and all non-just-squeezed-fruit juice for a week. (I have been diluting my juice, but still...oh and luckily I'm not a huge fan of soft drinks) The week after that I might add chocolate and cake to list of 'banned consumables'

I've always wanted to know how my body will react to me taking away it's many sources of sugar, this is a good way to find out...

I don’t have the willpower to give up anything at the moment. Buuut, during some of june/july/august I gave up chocolate altogether and then had very limited chocolate because of the mq-healthy thread . I think I will attempt that again in early January. Otherwise potato chips.

i never drink soft drinks either, except the zero stuff... mainly cuz i had a can of coke when i was 15 and i got sick after it. but yeh when you forget how it tastes, it's not hard to give up.

anywayz.. i give up.................
chocolate! if i could live on just one thing, it would be chocolate. double coated chocolate tim tams *drools*. i did reallywell last week, but really just cuz i was sick and couldn't eat anything. and then last night ............. =| well we have no more tim tams and hopefully my mum won't buy more and it'll be doable (Y).

 

[*hopeful*]

exam time is the worse time to try and give up something

 

[glitterfairy]

that's why I'm not even going to try

Traditionally, exam time is the only time where I well and truly 'let myself go' food wise. Breakfasts at 2am? Heavy lunches at 3 hour intervals? Bring it on!

I'll give up smoking for a month.

Thats convenient. I don't smoke : )

Nice!

Although, it would be rather convenient if you didn't smoke




I'll give up having threeways with Asy and Jimmy. OH NOEz!!

 

[AsyLum]

Never! Clench big boy CLENCH!

We can still go one-on-one swordfighting!!!

 

[AsyLum]

OARSOME! en garde!

I would give up chocolate on most occassions for a week - but this week i seriously cant, the reason behind it cause my friend just got back from the states and bought me back 3.5 kgs of american chocolate.. ohh im in heaven

So i will give up the chocolate for a week once i have consumed my 3.5kgs worth (dont worry people, it shouldnt take me too long) or maybe i should give it up and then eat it after a week, hmmm thats a thought..

i might sleep on it, i have waited for this for two months!

Any thoughts ???

 

[glitterfairy]

exam season is fast approaching. Unless you have the willpower of steel, don't put it off I say

Alternatively if you're only doing exams, put it off for this week, then when exams start dive in
