    WooHoo!! We are on a roll. We all had a great first week. I'm enjoying these mini-challenges also. I'm still really on the water drinking - up to 16oz this morning and have my 24oz cup filled for the morning. I've burned almost 400 calories so far! This is motivating me to get up in the morning and get in a workout before I start my day! :bigsmile:

    Im with you ladies! When Im nursing I get stuck in the 150's! With my first son i stayed at 152 till the week i let my milk dry and in a week dropped to 142, where I always stay! Now im worried becuase I am currently nursing my 5mon old and Ive hit 152 again! Id like our group to help get me down to 142, then hey maybe when i stop nursing ill get down to my ultimate goal of 130s!!! Lets see the 30s ladies!!! We can do it. No work out yet today since both my boys were up at 7am, but its now 8am, 16oz of water down(no clue if ill come close to the 28 glasses from yesterday) and 479 cals burned so far this week! You ladies are all awesome lets keep it up!!!

    Good Morning!!:happy:

    I cant believe today is already wednesday. I work both my jobs tomorrow and friday should be fun just long days. I'll be serving beer for about 4-5 hours, and its not standing in place either ill be running around. Ill just have my lunch break at my first job to get in a good work out. Im also working on my first craft show on the 30 & 31st of the month so much going on but i can manage and that is why i love being a part of this group, i have the support and the responsibilty of meeting these challenges we set every day! :heart:

    I hope everyone has a great week!!!

    Okay, I am struggling with getting my calories right, UGH! I am also 100 or 200 over! This weeks focus is adding in exercise again, next week my personal goal will be to stay in calorie range. Hope you all had a better day than I did in terms of food choices! Keep up the burn!

    At least it is only over by 100 or 200 and your not totally going over. Glad you are getting in exercise this week!!

    COMPLETELY slacking on water today... ugh 6:30pm and only 7 glasses so far! :drinker: I know Ill hit my 8 but I usually have closer to 15 glasses! How is everyone doing on their exercise calories burned so far this week? So far I'm at 1267. I want to try to get in 2 work outs tomorrow, i hoping to get as close to the 3000 as possible. But I'll be happy with 2000! My personal goal till labor day is to get at least 20 minutes a day 6 days a week. And the 20 minutes have to be more then a walk, I need to be sweaty and have a high heart rate! :wink:

    Anyone else have any personal goals they are trying to acheive before our labor day weigh in??

    I think I'm at about 915 calories burned or so. For me that's pretty good. I'll have no trouble making 1500 but I'd like to make at least 2000. We'll see! My goal is to continue to increase my calories burned each week or so. Maybe by Labor Day I can make 3000 calories burned a week.:smokin: Hoping to get a really good workout tomorrow - 500 calories maybe.

    Hey Mommies!! You ladies rock!! I've been seeing some of your posts... and cals burnt.. you girls are amazing!!!

    I have been doing pretty well with my water, never had a problem there and dont intend to slack off.. My cals burnt is a different story.. I have burnt 805 for the week so far.. (only exercised twice) and I'm hoping to at least hit 1800... but if not, then 1500.. I dont know how you gals can do the 3000 but I'm sincerely impressed if you even come close to it!!

    Anyways, have a nice night.. to those who are breastfeeding, there will come a time in your child's life when you will wish they were still cradled in your arms.. so cherish this time!! My son's 17 and sometimes I long to be able to hold him like that again! :ohwell:

    Have a great night ladies.. and continue being wonderful, awesome, kicking moms!!! Good night!

    You revealed the secret challenge, lol! We all are doing great with exercise and water, but the biggest challenge and the reason we are all her is FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Next weeks challenge is to stay within your calorie range 100% not a calorie over, lol! And yes, even on the weekend! :frown: (At least for next week)!! If we can drink 8 glasses of water, burn at least 1500 calories in exercise, and stay in our calorie limit, we will rock :happy:
