Completed Mini-Challenges

Weeks 1 to 6

Do each daily Love Dare from the book. DO NOT START BOOK UNTIL 2nd DAY!

Guidelines:
Use your Love Dare book and read/meditate on each daily challenge and complete each daily love dare. Each challenge lesson is only about 3 pages long and then the love dare, so there is not a lot of reading each day. Feel free to comment on your love dare results. 1st day of this challenge is to be used to talk about your hopes for this challenge. Start the book on the 2nd day of challenge. Last day will be spent talking about our results!

Weeks 1 to 6

Record everything you eat. Keep calorie intake around 1500 to 1800 a day.

Guidelines:
Keep track of all the food and drinks you consume. Even if you only take a bite or two of something, record it. You would be surprised at how much all the little nibbles equal by the end of the day.

Reading Love Dare
I am thinking that it may be a good idea to read over your dare the night before so you can prepare for the next day. I am going to do that this evening for tomorrow's dare.
