I didn't log in yesterday. I did drink my 8 glasses of water and had my yogurt for dairy. However, I did not get in any greens. I could have but didn't realize that I had 440 cals left until this morning. OOPs! Oh well.

Today I had my 8 glasses of water, my dairy from yogurt, and green bell peppers in my burrito. So, I'm back on track today.

Hope everyone had a wonderful day today. Have a good night. Later.

I had yogurt and water but this is the first day since we started on greens that I didn't get them in-I am out of calories - we had chinese - BIG mistake. I HAD to exercise to get within my calories but I needed to anyway so I am within the range. I worked out on the Wii Fit for 1/2 hour. I counted it as 20 minutes of circuit training - does that sound close enough? I really need a Heart Rate Monitor.

I'm fine with water and I had a yogurt, but I'm having trouble with my greens. I keep forgetting to grab a salad or some vegi's. Going to have to remember to run thru Mcd's drive thru and get a side salad tomorrow morning.

I've got 681 calories left :noway: and have been trying to think of stuff that will get rid of it and get my dairy in at the same time then it just occurred to me...Skinny Cow ice cream sandwich! That'll make a dent in my dairy, right? They've been sitting in my freezer for over a week and I completely forgot about them 'til just now.

NOM NOM NOM...

lcmartin

I haven't tried them yet, but I think I just may have to after hearing so much about them!

hey everyone, just realized that this is where the tweeners post their challenges. I'm assuming from the feed that we are trying to make sure we are getting our water servings in for the day, as well as our veggie servings?

I'm currently on a unique deployment of sorts with the Army, so maintaining fresh produce is hard, but i could use a kick in the butt to get my water intake back up to where is should be. Use to be so good about this, but i let the habit slip. But i'm joining up to get back on track. GO tweeners!

First let me say - thank you for serving and we are so honored to have you with us!

Our challenge this week was to get in a serving of dairy each day (or dairy substitute) last week was a serving of something green daily and the week before was 64 oz of water each day - we all seem to be keeping going with the current and past challenge. On sunday there will be a new conversation thread with a new challenge that singcoz will assign since she did so great this week. I think she's going to throw some exercise challenge our way! BRING IT ON!!!!

Happy Friday - I'll check back in when I can tomorrow.

I had yogurt for breakfast , more than 64 oz of water and spinach at lunch and salad for supper so I covered all the bases!

Hello Everyone. I know, I haven't checked in for a couple of days, but I've done good.

I have yogurt for brekky (actually my standard for the past year, love my yogurt)
I've been trying to get in my greens every day, but it hasn't happened. I had a little lettuce on my subway sandwich today, but not much. And I missed my greens all together on Wed. I think.
As for my water, It's been unseasonably hot here in my neck of the woods (California) and I've been easily drinking 64-99 oz p/day.

Singcoz is my partner, I see that she's picking the challenge next week? Yay, she did awsome this week, AND had to deal with midterms. GO SINGCOZ!!

Okay, thanks Chrissy! i'm on board then... WHEW?? 64oz?! of plain 'ol water, huh? LOL! ok, ok, I gotcha, I gotcha, I can dig!
The one serving of green, i can make happen even on tour...and the dairy...well, refridgeration is a problem for me, but i think i can try to get this in too...Are we including eggs in this this category?

Do we have a weigh in day?
Mine is usually saturdays...today! 171.
:bigsmile:
And i guess i'll start with all the challenges tomorrow since singcoz is posting week 4 challenge then.
Totally psyched for this....!
Let's start this next week with a bang and lots of strength.:bigsmile:
