    I'm ready to do this!!! Its August 1st, new beginning and new start. My weaknesses is WATER, as of today it will not be. When we do our exercises do we message you? Do you get my pic also??

    When you do the exercises just log them into you're diary like you normally would, but do it at the end of the day so you know it isn't overlooked by your other exercises. Remember these challenges are an addition to your normal routine... if you don't have one let me know I have a workout plan that would have you crawling to the bedroom. :bigsmile:

    Also add your challenge exercises into the "Notes" on the exercise page... let me know if I'm making since?

    So we need to make our diaries public then, right? & I'm intrigued by this painful workout :-p I always just get on the elliptical for 30 minutes.

    I know I'm making a lot of post but I need everyone to make their food diaries public, that's one of the ways we get our bonus points at the end of the week by staying under our calorie goal....


    Thanks, be looking for posts on your wall from me shortly! Lets go ladies!!!!

    We're on the same page Chelsea lol would you like a copy of the workout I was talking about?

    Okay, its now public :-)
    & I'd love it! The elliptical is a great burn for me sometimes but it can get so boring.

    I have a question for everyone. It's almost that time of the month, and I'm craving pretty much everything. I've been doing pretty good with it today, but evening is always the worst. How do you all deal with cravings?

    Let's kick some butt today, guys! I'm already hugging down the water, and just ate a good breakfast. How is everybody else doing today?

    Can I get a copy of that work out routine? I usually do swimming, walking, or ellyptical, but would love some new ideas!

    My day is starting out great, eating right and feeling good. I usually do my exercises in the evenings and will definitly get them done.

    As for cravings - I'm bad with them too, my husband LOVES to keep sweets in the house! (he's one of these thin guys that can eat whatever they want! JEALOUS LOL) Anyway, I might snack on something sweet like fruit, or have a diet root beer. Once in a while I will go ahead and splurge, but only if it fits into my calorie intake for the day. Good luck, and if you have any suggestions, would love to hear them.

    32 ounces down, working on another 8 right now. Water normally isn't my problem, its avoiding all the junk food my father keeps around the house.

    And then they say things like "man, I really need to work out. My gut is getting bigger." I'm like, uh, you probably could just stop eating so much junk and you would stop gaining weight...

    Could you all post on my wall when you've completed the challenge for the day? I may have said something different earlier but this is all new to me and I'm learning as I go...

    On another note, are you all ready for tomorrow?

    I've already got a walking date with my husband for tomorrow. He's trying to get me to lift, so I'll be getting extra weight training in as well! Logging dinner, then off for a walk!

    Plus, for the first time since July 4th, he cooked dinner! Woot!
