    We will check in on Mondays since that's when the challenge started but updates throughout the week would be great to keep each of us motivated.

    Heh, love that you had to censor Mr. Clark's first name!! LoL.

    So I'll add another "Must drink water!" to the chant! I'm really terrible with the water. I just broke down and bought a big thing of bottled water to make myself drink at least one or two a day... I've probably had two all week! Terrible...

    I plan on getting back to the gym very soon (hopefully today) and keeping up with 4x a week in the gym. I also plan to get back on track with counting calories and staying within my goals. I was off track for a few weeks because I decided I needed to take a break to quit smoking first. Now I am smoke free for 4 days (and a half!) and ready to get back to work.

    try those little no calorie flavor packets in your water...
    I put some in mine and it really helps with the water...
    I also eat spicy so I tend to drink more too...
    Just some tips

    How funny - I actually typed it and I guess we have a great site to censor for us! I didn't even think about it.

    I find I can drink a lot more water faster if at room temp. If it's ice cold I like it ok but I find that I chug and I REALLY chug it down at room temp--my husband makes fun of me cuz I drink about 8 oz in one drink!

    spicy foods is a great way to get it in - here I am talking water and I just realized I've been busy at work and haven't had any - off to a 32 oz haven of Smart Water!

    Im the opposite. My water has to be ice cold or else I cant drink it. If its really cold it tastes so good then.

    Is there going to be an official weigh in day?? To check in once a week or something?

    Marvellous idea this...so, are we going to have an official day to weigh in?

    Actually someone should try and convince Tall_t to join this challenge. She'll soon whip it all into shape and organise it all....She is superb!

    When I first joined this fab challenge, I was 221lbs, I've been doing really well - even if I do say so myself, so, I think the losing 10 pounds is a definate goal for me, I've lost 5 pounds since my last posting, so I stand corrected: I CAN DO THIS by New Year :bigsmile:

    Sweettart and Jackie_W you are doing great! I've lost 1.6 since we started so 7.2 to go--I am less than 5 pounds away from getting out of the 200s and a loss of over 40.......(see me biting my finger nails!)

    Official weigh in will be on Monday!
