    Still sticking with it!! I am psyched about continuing the 10 mile challenge. I need to challenge to add water, that is a real challenge for me... I HATE water and LOVE Diet Mt. Dew. My activity is at 5 3/4 miles so far this week.

    Great job EVERYONE!!!! Together we will reach our goals :)

    Can I count Zumba as my walking for today? I'm not sure how to figure it out miles wise, but boy is it TOUGH!!!!!!

    Not sure how you would translate into miles. This may help -

    I spend 42 minutes on the treadmill, 3.0 mph, 2.034 miles, burn 230.7. If you burn 460 calories doing Zumba, maybe that would equate to 4.064 miles. Just a thought

    Okay, how's everyone doing on the challenge? I have to admit I'm not doing so well with the water, still averaging 5 per day. I will step up my game for these last couple of days. However, I am doing quite well with the walking. As of today, I've walked a little over 6 miles!!!

    Keep up the good work everyone!

    Okay, I have finally made it up to 8 glasses of water!!! Yesterday was the first day and I hope to keep it up today. I decided to give myself one mile for the Zumba since it was only 15 minutes. I'd rather err on the lower side that fool myself. Yesterday however, I did 3.5 miles on the elliptical. I think I reached the 10 mile mark!!

    Weight: 152 down two pounds! Really think the water challenge was helpful. Going to be very mindful of drinking 8-10 glasses a day!

    Hi everyone!
    Sorry I didn't post on Monday, I was busy collecting my parents from the Airport and catching up on their holiday stories. I stayed the same this week, which wasn't surprising considering my blow-out on Saturday night. I'm working hard this week with exercise and food, so hopefully it will help. The battery in my scales has died so I was thinking I might start weighing myself at the start of each month and concentrate on inch loss instead. I hope it's ok with everyone to post inch loss every Monday instead.
    Hope you all have a great weekend!
