    Count me in. Just finished a six week challenge that ended on Labor Day. I am so glad to find another challenge to start. I will weigh first thing in the morning and send it to you. Love the enthusiasm!!!

    OK - here is my recap for today. I didn't really go carb free - I just realized how many carbs are in my nightly ice cream snack. But I am OK with that - I look forward to it every day, and usually have a 1/2 cup or full cup, depending on my calories for the day. I also didn't get my power walk in but I ended up unexpectedly staying late at work ...I left the house at 615 a.m and got home at 7:45 p.m, so it just ain't gonna happen. Fortunately, I did get a 30 minute "regular" walk in at lunch with my walking partner and as soon as I am done here I am going to go "relax" while I ride my stationary bike and watch Project Runway. :laugh: .
    Oh yeah - I did manage to get TEN cups of water down the hatch today too.

    I am a little nervous about tomorrow's weigh in but we'll see....I feel like I had a good week, so that's what counts.

    Ooooh I wanna do a low carb day tomorrow :happy: I eat way too many carbs everyday... I just hope I'm not hungry.
    I haven't ran for the past few days so I'm going to do some bodyrock.tv. Those workouts are the best! Super intense in short time.
    Salad for dinner and tons of water. I hope I get out of the 160s - I've been there all summer!
    Plans for Fri, Sat, Sun = Lots of running, hiking, and bodyrock. I'm going to be good tomorrow and not have a cheat day because I have a goal :) Hopefully I won't cave... And I'll try to keep carbs under 120 for the weekend cuz I usually splurge then.

    Glad everyone's having a great day xx

    "andreaie So today's the day!! Good luck for the weigh in girls I've received all losses so far thank god.. I'll be on later today to post this weeks challenge.. Today's challenge is mountain climbers.. Do 50 if you can you can modify them so your not jumping just pushing each leg up.. If I can ask again for one of you to post the challenge on the post please.. I'd be very grateful xxx"

    Ok, I did the mountain climbs, but with modifications (I don't have the strentgh yet) and resting few seconds after 25 lol.. in the afternoon I'll do aerobic again.

    I'm a bit sad though. I started monday with 82.9kg.. two days ago the weight was 83.9, then yesterday 83.5 and now 83.2... but how did I get to 83.9??? I stayed in my dialy kcal, did workout, did carbfree day, even started to drink 10 cups of water...buh, I hope weight goes down and doesn't come up again. xD

    Wahhh.... :cry: that means I will miss my evening ice cream snack. I'll have to think about this. I guess I can try it - it is only a week... I've never used this "smiley" in a post but I think it is apprproiae when I think about andreaie setting this week's challenge: :devil: Just kidding!! If I didn't love it (and the effect) I wouldn't be here. :laugh:

    for me it's impossibile.. I go to bed at 1am sometimes at 2am...
    come home only at 21pm.. usually at at 21:30.. it's just impossible for me to not eat anything from 17:30(meal at 15pm, little snack at 17:30pm...).
    But I already having my internal law 'nothing after 22pm'. :)
