    I'm liking this challenge so far, although the weekend will be tough. Water and exercise done for today. Can't wait to see what ideas you have in store for future weeks!

    Of course you can join!!! Welcome MrsDowns22 & Musefromnowhere!!

    Here's the challenge recap -
    There will be a new food & exercise challenge each week provided by someone different within this thread (those indivduals know who they are). The new challenge will be posted by Monday evenings; hopefully no later than Tuesday mornings. Each Tuesday you should report in your CW; I'll track the group's changes and will then provide a weekly update.

    Good luck on hitting your goal!

    Exercise done today :bigsmile:

    Still working on the water...

    Yes, being accountable is what I really need. Thank you for the camaraderie and if anyone is looking for more friends, please add me, I could use the support. Have a great Wednesday everyone!

    Good evening, Ladies AND Gentleman!!
    Hope you all have had a Wooo Hoooo Wednesday!!
    I have managed, I don't know how, to already lose 4lbs so far this week! Take THAT, Easter Feasting!! LOL I'm just hoping it lasts through the week. I don't normally exercise every day, but I want to keep this forward momentum moving, so I'm going to get at it again tonight :bigsmile:
    Water will be no problem. I'm already on 6 and I'll drink at least 3 during workout, and usually 2 before bed.
    I'm sure all you non-water drinkers would like to know the 'secret' to drinking water...all I can tell you, for me, is 1) I drink mine out of a bottle with a straw. Seems to go down much faster that way and 2)...the more you drink, the more your body craves it!
    And Ailene (aab1) is right...your body eventually adjusts to all that water, and bathroom trips become less :bigsmile:

    Anyone that would like extra support, please feel free to friend request me. I'm a big supporter!! Just write a little message along with your request...I'm not a fan of the 'blind' friend request, and until I get used to all your faces, I might not recognize you!! haha

    Have a great Thirsty Thursday!!! :drinker:

    WTG Leslie! Something about starting a new challenge seems to have jump-started us. I saw a 1.5 lb loss in 2 days, which never, ever, ever happens to me. I'm a slow loser, which is hard for me because I am a fast person by nature (one of my colleagues was laughing at me the other day and when I asked why she said, "because you don't even type at a normal speed!!! What the heck do you drink every morning?" So weightloss is my exercise in patience. So happy for you and the shedding of 4 lbs so quickly

    Welcome to Thin4Payton & ashade44!! Don't forget to post both your CW & 6/21 GW. Good Luck!!

    Leslie & Olivia - AWESOME to hear that you're seeing a weight loss already this week! It must be because you're meeting the 10 glass/day challenge! :wink: :drinker: :wink:


    I had another good day today with both exercise & my water. I completed C25K W9D2 and this evening I pushed myself to do both 30DS & Ri30; which was exhausting but I haven't done either in a few days and I was feeling guilty. Whoa...stop the train...did I just say that I felt "guilty" for not exercising?!?!? I'll take that's as an NSV!! :happy:

    I drank TWENTY CUPS of water today! I put in a hard workout (a little over an hour, woo hoo!) and overall had a great day water and exercise-wise. Ate a little too much dessert but took responsibility for it and worked it off at the gym.

    Hope everyone had a great Wednesday!

    chickadee2010 checking in for today
    Water 0/7
    Exercise 2/7

    Water is just so hard for me to get in this past week. Usually I drink 8, and even that's difficult.
