    My starting weight is 172.5 (heavier than I thought *frown*). But I'm determined to have it be 160 by Easter if not less than that! Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to the challenge and the support.

    I'm in! Starting weigh in is 220.0
  • 12 cups of water...today is cleaning day, so I think I can do it! Lol.

    My cardio today is primarily Billy Blanks tae bo. I'll push for the 45! Then I'm detail cleaning my house and my aunt's house, so that'll be a bonus.

    As for joining, I have lost my drive over the weekend. Needed a boost! I think this group, and having so many daily challenges will help me be able to focus on smaller achievements, and not feel overwhelmed by the ultimate goal.
  • Starting weight- 136.4...sorry i missed monday, but i would still love to be involved.

    Hi everyone! I'm weighing in for this challenge at 177.6. The Valentine's Day challenge kept me pumped even though I didn't QUITE lose the 10 pounds, so I'm just going to push it out harder here! If I can get those 12 pounds off I'll be 15 pounds away from my goal weight! It's so close!!

    Also - I'm making the spreadsheet for this challenge so there's just something I want to say about that:

    - You have to have your weight posted by Thursday AT THE LATEST if you want to be included, but it's really easier if you just post on Mondays because then I really know when you be on the lookout.
    - If you have a late weigh-in it would be helpful if you messaged me with it also.
    - If by week 2 (2 weigh-ins from now) you haven't checked in with a new weight I'm going to remove you from the list.
    - If you don't see yourself on the list let me know ASAP so I can get you on it. I'm not going to hunt you down, it's too hard.
    - If you fail to post a weigh-in I'm going to assume you've lost 0 pounds.

    OOPS! Didn't post starting weight yesterday... I'm weighing in at 141. It will be hard for me to lose 12 lbs by Easter since that will put me so close to my goal weight but I'm sure gonna try! I will be please with any results I can get as long as I know I tried! I really appreciate the support!!!

    currently i am on cups 3 and 4 of water. one of those big glasses that can hold a measured two cups. :) for activity today im going to do be a knockout with kendra for 50 mins. i love that workout! thinking abt maybe trying the C25K thing again. last time i tried the wind was too strong and i had to stop due to asthma. but i have lost weight since then so maybe today wont be so bad. :)
    I chose this challenge cause my bday is the week before easter and it will keep me motivated to make healthier choices on my bday.

    Again ladies thanks for doing this. Oh water thank you! I feel better when I drink it but I get lazy and don't or drink soda instead (habit harder to stop for me than smoking was) So I'm doing good so far today 20 oz in. Why this I started exercising in August 2009, I was kind of watching food. Lost 30 lbs by dec 2010. need to lose 20 more! I like the way my body look (mostly) but I need to get very serious about food to help with the last 20lbs so here I am. 60 min P90X Ployo for today. Think I'll get a glass of water.

    I started the V-Day challenge but was plagued by back problems. I'm all healed up and rearing to go! My other Easter Challenge has me trying to reach 140, which coincidentally is just over 12 lbs. So count me in! Currently 153, but I will weigh in next Monday.

    Hey can I get in on this? I haven't done one of these challenges yet...could definitely use the motivation :D

    Starting weight - 165.5

    I posted my weight last night, but I had a feeling that it wasn't accurate. So I hopped on the scale this morning and it's 166.5. It's amazing how I have a different of 6 POUNDS overnight. Kinda makes me wanna be a morning person! :)

    As far as the 12 cups of water....hmmm. That's gonna be really tough. I can barely do the 8 cups without having to just camp out in the bathroom. I think I have a small bladder. :oT I'll definitely give it a shot. A nutritionist once told me that you should only have to drink enough water where your urine is the color of a pale lemonade. Anything lighter or clear is just too much.

    Thank you again for all of your hard work! Everyone needs to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS ABOVE!!!

    Please thank INSKYDIAMONDS for all of her hard work! It looks like this challenge is going to be HUGE!! I love it, but remember to be kind to her. She tries her best and does a wonderful job! If you don't see your name on the spreadsheet she didn't do it on purpose! Make sure to weigh in weekly so you aren't removed from the sheet. You can always rejoin, but you would have to send her a private message with all your info.

    Keep it simple people!!

    We can do this!

    Make sure to keep up with today's challenge!!

    Love and Hugs!

    I'd like to join this challenge, too! I haven't posted anything before and it looks like I'm a day late. Do we just post the Monday weigh-ins on this message board?

    TUESDAY: I affectionately call this H20 Tuesdays!!

    12 Cups Water! Done
    45 Minutes activity--- (you choose today! Report what you did,. If you need to break it up into 15 minute segments!) Played 18 holes golf with 45 minutes of warming up and 15 minutes of abs and stretching.
    Under Calories! Will be-I have around 800 left for the day and I have no intention of eating that much!

    Bonus: Why did you choose to join this challenge? I so look forward to getting to know each of you! I am very close to my goal weight and even though I don't have as much to lose, I'm getting complacent and letting some of my trigger foods back into my life. These weight loss challenges that don't focus on calories burned help keep me on track and feeling a little more accountable. Plus, I love Tausha's daily challenges! Good luck everybody-we can do this!
