Transformation Challenge Plus results

Brown butterfly on a green frog.

Eight weeks ago, I wrote about a transformation challenge of a different sort (for me). I was starting the 8-week Orangetheory Transformation Challenge at the same time that I decided to take a leap of faith and try intuitive eating. No more tracking points, protein, produce servings…or anything else. I would trust my body to … [Read more…]

Transformation challenge plus!

September 24, 2019 by Christie Hawkes 28 Comments
A line of cocoons.

I am by nature a goal-setting, list-making, progress-tracking junkie—always looking forward to the next task or milestone. For the past two years, I have been trying to tame the beast, practicing mindfulness and learning to be present in this moment. That doesn’t mean I’ve tossed out the to-do lists, trackers, or thoughts of the future … [Read more…]

How to write about the unfamiliar

Computer, manuscript, and glasses

Since I wrote about the need to re-evaluate my writing goals, I have been writing the additional scenes my novel needs to be complete. I made a commitment to schedule time specifically for this writing every week, and I’ve stuck to it. I was making pretty good progress, and then I ran into a situation. … [Read more…]

One way another way sign

One of the items on my Winter Bucket List is to start querying agents (again). You’d think since I have written a query letter and only need to tweak it and start researching agents, this would be an easy matter. But more than a month into winter I haven’t even begun. Part of it is … [Read more…]

Here we go again: Orangetheory Transformation Challenge 2019

Fruits, vegetables, juice, smoothie and dumbbell health diet fitness concept

Last year, I participated in my first Orangtheory Transformation Challenge. From that experience, I learned that transformation doesn’t necessarily happen in eight weeks (unless you’re a butterfly), but that eight weeks is a solid start to forming healthy habits that aid in the ongoing process of transformation. If you’d like to see other lessons learned … [Read more…]

Creepy skull

Have your workouts become hellish? Do you dread the exercise hour? Have you reached the point where you’re willing to trade your soul for eternal fitness if it means you never have to step on a treadmill again? I was at that point a year ago when I started looking for something new and discovered … [Read more…]

8-week transformation challenge results

April 3, 2018 by Christie Hawkes 33 Comments
When a woman tightens her ponytail in the middle of a workout, it's about to go down.

I want to be like a caterpillar. Eat a lot. Sleep for awhile. Then wake up beautiful. We’ve come to the end of the Orangetheory 8-week transformation challenge, and while I’m not exactly transformed, I am a couple of pounds lighter and a whole lot more educated. Workouts Achievements. Over the course of the challenge, … [Read more…]
