    I can't find where all the challenges for today are posted so I'm trying to remember them:

    45 minutes of continuous movement: Done! I just got back from a 50 minute walk with my hubby and kids. Plus I walked around campus today.

    Drink 10 glasses of water: Done as far as I know. The only thing I've drank today besides water was a cup of milk. I always keep water beside me. I kept track of how much water I drank when I joined MFP but I don't anymore because I think its too tedious.

    Be under your calorie goal by not more than 50 calories: I'll be under my goal for sure but I don't know about the 50 calorie part. I earned a lot of calories today from exercise and I don't want to force myself to eat if I'm not hungry.

    If any of these goals are wrong please correct me.

    I got my exercise in and my 10 cups of water. Well I did 35 minutes of exercise and 15 minutes of cleaning, so that's good enough for me because I haven't been exercising much lately.

    So excited to join in on this challenge. I would love to be able to lose 30lbs by Christmas. I just started counting my calories yesterday, and I have to say that it's the hardest thing I have ever done. Well, maybe not the hardest, but damn close. I'm trying to stay right around 1500, but have went over slightly. I just keep telling myself that it will get easier. I can't even begin to imagine how many calories I WAS eating before starting to log them. Big wake-up call.

    Anyhoo, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and doing this challenge with all of you.
