SWIPE➡️POWER’s Progress Over Perfection Challenge — a fun 14-day journey to help you build healthy habits your way.

This challenge is simple, flexible, and made for everybody.

Each day, you’ll earn points by doing two small actions: logging your food or drinks and doing movement that feels right for you. Big or small, every effort counts.

There’s no “perfect” way to do this challenge just show up as you are, take it one day at a time, and let’s celebrate progress together.
We’re so happy you’re here. Let’s get started!

POWER has a group challenge on the MyFitnessPal platform. After you sign up on the MyFitnessPal website or app I will add you to the group!

The group name on the platform is POWER/LIFE of MS.

We will start the challenge January 12th and end January 29th.

We will host a Zoom call on today at 2pm to kickoff the challenge and answer questions.

If you have any trouble signing up you can respond to this email or send me a text- 769-246-9875
We are excited and cannot wait to see you all Monday over Zoom at 2pm.
