    I am so in. Water won't be a problem and motivation always is but holding my own there...

    It will be an interesting day on the exercise though as we are switching around the house. My Kids have been sharing a bedroom since Grandpa moved in with us due to health and finances 3 years ago. But they just can't share a room anymore (1 boy/1girl) as my son is 11 now and according to emotions puberty is right around the corner. So we are moving Grandpa into half of the playroom, moving my son back into his room and then moving stuff back into my daughter's room and reorganizing. I expect this will take most of the day.

    Have a good one all!!!!

    I am in! Did the 5 Mile Advanced Walk by Leslie Sansone and hope do do more later. I'm actually hoping to get out for a walk but it will depend on how much it rains.

    I always drink lots of water so just need to watch my foods (already know that we'll be having pizza today so careful planning is in order!

    Great job, everyone!! :drinker: Keep it up!

    So far, so good. Had breakfast and 4 cups of water so far. After lunch, I'll head out for my long run of the week, and the weather is perfect- 78* and low humidity :love: Nice change from feeling like I live in the Sahara Desert lately :laugh:

    Will check in later :flowerforyou:

    I have a busy day today. I plan on watching my calories, but might not get in much exercise. I have an extremely skinny Sunday on deck though. I'll be cycling 65 miles for Endure for the Cure. The elevation map for the ride is in my ticker. As you can see, I'll be going uphill for a bit.:noway: Might take in some extra calories tonight as fuel. I'll check in later. Good luck, everyone! :drinker:

    :flowerforyou: Sky: Wow! Good luck on that ride tomorrow...hope the weather is as great asit is today! I am proud of you for doing this for Endure for the Cure. What a sweet and generous thing for you to do! :heart: We will all be with you in spirit! Check back in and let us know how it went....so today you have every reason to take it easy!

    One workout in, lots of water and great on cals. My final numbers are green all the way across! Yay!:bigsmile: I went grocery shopping...first time in 6 weeks......my hubby and mom have been pitching in because of a foot surgery. I got a workout in as now I am wearing a "walking boot." This thing looks like a Shrek foot!!!:laugh: It is sooooooooooo much better than a cast and crutches so I am not complaining. I went wild at the grocery store and have enough fresh fruit to make a fruit salad for all of you! Come on over! :happy: I have plans for my last mat workout and will call it a day. I think I am safe in saying that it has been a Super Skinny Saturday!!! Here is to you for your great efforts today and for being so devoted to getting through the weekend with success! :drinker: Have an awesome Sunday and we will meet you in the Skinny Wed Challenge!
    Cheers!:smooched:

    My Skinny Saturday is complete:

    -13 glasses of water
    -a 5 mile run
    -WAY under my calories (but I'm sure I'll be eating them back tomorrow- I'm always SUPER hungry the day after a long run!)

    Mission accomplished! :bigsmile:

    Well I had an extremely lazy Saturday for me! I got to hang out with the bulldog today! My parents went out of town, so they asked if I would "babysit". So put on my HRM & I did some cleaning today, then I bathed & groomed the dog, took him for a walk, then I went on a short bikeride. Not a lot for me, but at least it was some! Went to the fair tonight & came home to a very playful puppy! He is bringing me his toys here on the keyboard as I type! LOL I have slobber on my mouse now too! LOL :tongue:

    Wednesday should be a normal routine for Skinny Challenge for me! I won't be here next Sat however....headed to St Louis for the Cubs/Cards game! YAY!!!! :bigsmile:

    :drinker: I had a successful Skinny Saturday, but not in the double water, double exercise department. Had a fruit/veggie substitution day, which I am hoping to do each Saturday, since that is a good time for me to do so. Lost 1.5 pounds. Yet went quite over my calories. I think the body is much more efficient in metabolizing the fruits and veggies than other lower calorie foods that are denser and/or processed. I am getting hooked on the fresh and raw stuff.

    :flowerforyou: Thanks again Fab for putting on the challenges. It sure helps to know we are in this together.

    Good job RR! That is good to know....you can eat a truck load of veges and fruit and probably still burn it off! I am learning alot from you! I hit the fruits and veges hard this weekend but still haven't had a total vege day....maybe Monday would be good for me. Have a great week!:happy:

    Skinny Sunday for me! 65 miles and over 2300 calories burned. Must admit that I went a little overboard on some pizza tonight, but I'm still under my calorie goal. :bigsmile:

    I think I'll sleep well tonight. :laugh:
