Hey everyone, I am new to this but did you get your emails from the Power move challenge yet! When I opt in for it it said at the middle of the month will get an update but still didn’t receive anything. Just wondering how this work. Thanks
Not had my Power Move email?

Well l never achieve any of the monthly targets. but when they use to do the hourly ones it was quite easy. they say don’t use appliances from 6 to 9. but it’s quite difficult we have our dinner from eight onwards so why should we wait any longer as my husband is diabetic so have to eat certain times. otherwise would be feeling poorly.
I’ve been doing power move since last summer & have been getting mid-month updates for quite a few months, plus the end of month results. I have managed to meet the targets every month, but sometimes it’s not been easy.
They’re not asking you to forgo your tea/dinner especially if there’s a medical reason to eat regularly at certain times.
I myself have to eat before 6.30 or so for medical reasons, which is OK at the moment but when we had to move usage out of the 4 to 7pm time slot it could have been difficult. However, by making sure I cooked my meals in bulk at non-peak times & froze them, ready to have a quick microwave heat up when I wanted to eat them, I was able to meet target every time. Another option is to cook enough for the next day as well & simply reheat the next day, & that way you’re only using peak electricity every other day.
Obviously don’t dice with your husband’s health - but maybe have a go at cooking his meals at a different time & microwaving them when he needs to eat? It’s worth a try, surely?
