    Laura-sorry to hear it ::frown: hope you are feeling better tomorrow! But awesome numbers for the week so far regardless!

    Suzanne-don't sound so bummed...you are doing great and your numbers will show it again on the scale again this week! Keep it up girl! :flowerforyou:

    Tausha-I'd say you are keeping up fairly well...you only need 7 cups of water, and 228 cals burned tomorrow...you can def get those checked off...the crunches may be another story for this week, but just do your best and you will have a new goal to work towards on Thursday!! Nice work!

    Annie-come on girl...you can do it!!! Consistency is key remember :flowerforyou:

    I'm trying...really I am! I do good for a while, and then just hit a bump. Hopefully being in this challenge will get me back on the wagon a lot quicker than I've done in the past.

    Ok, I'm here to post the new challenge again! Starts TOMORROW!!


    Don't forget to post your final results here tomorrow morning!! I am excited to see SMALLER NUMBERS!! I know you ladies have been killing it for another week!


    Ok so for this Thursday through Next Wednesday:


    60 Cups of water total for the week! (come on!! Try it!!)
    Burn at least 3500 calories!
    Under calories in diary at least 5 of 7 days! (but not by too much! Don't starve yourself!)

    About the calories... I know that some of you smaller ladies will have to work very hard to achieve this.... So... please feel free to add daily activity calories burnt like... house work, etc... Do what YOU feel should count. Remember, this is all personal improvement, even though we are sharing here as a group! :0)

    I hope that made sense and was easily understood. Do what you can....count what you want...work hard and know that we can all do this!

    Let me know if there is any way I can support ANY of you BETTER! I'm here to love on you if you need it, or kindly kick you in the booty if you want that too! I can never be harsh...just not my personality, but I"m sure if you need a drill sargeant, that someone here will gladly do that too!

    We are here for you. We want you to succeed....b/c when you do.....it makes it achievable and realistic enough that WE CAN DO IT TOO!!!


    Love and Hugs,

    Tausha

    anything I (or we) can do to help keep you motivated...other than the norm challenges...let us know!!! Good luck!

    Thanks so much! I think it's come to a battle of will's. It's a terrible excuse, but when you have a husband that can eat anything and not gain an ounce, and a toddler who needs to gain weight...ugh. I try very, very hard, but sometimes it get's difficult.

    Well, lets say I burned 750 calories or so so far..I ran 2.8 miles today, and working out with Jillian for 1 hour. Already did Shred level 3, and doing Ripped Week 3 tonight, so I'm sure I'll get in those situps/crunches :laugh: I'm at 7 cups of water so far, and will have a few more glasses before bed. :happy: Good luck at the weigh in tomorrow, I checked this morning and didn't like what I saw..wasn't a gain either, but will hopefully see something tomorrow since im putting out all my fire tonight, last chance..

    Suzanne-you've got this girl!!! You are doing great...just remember...with JM DVDs it is normal to experience a gain due to water retention!!! I actually gained 3lbs after a 30 day run of it!! but regardless of what your scale says...I guarantee your tape measure will make you happy!!

    I actually don't measure myself too much..I mostly go by how my clothes fit me, and I know I have lost more inches since my "tight tight" clothes are better fitting me..

    9/24--H2O-15 cups, 30 crunches, 1200 calories burned
    9/25--H2O-16 cups, 100 crunches, 1200 calories burned

    9/27--H2O-15 cups, 30 crunches, 0 calories burned-due to the headache

    I didn't make my calorie goal because I had to do something for work AFTER work today and got home late. It's already my bedtime and I only got to eat dinner. My goal was 3600 calories so I wasn't too far off, but I will definitely get it next week! Goodluck on weigh-in's tomorrow everyone. I again will weigh-in on Friday instead of tomorrow!

    Awesome job guys! Keep up the great work. I usually am more responsive to specific comments/updates than this, but have had some busy evenings. Hopefully I can get back to that soon!

    9/22
    2 cups water
    60 crunches
    897 calories burned
    9/23
    2 cups water
    0 crunches
    578 calories burned
    9/24
    1 cups water
    0 crunches
    0 calories burned (Saturdays are day off from exercise)
    9/25
    3 cups water
    0 crunches
    681 calories burned
    9/26
    5 cups water
    30 crunches
    673 calories burned
    9/27
    6 cups water
    200 crunches
    709 calories burned (yes...sides are very sore today, lol)
    9/28
    4 cups water
    30 crunches
    1097 calories burned

    Total
    23/56 water----320/210 crunches
    4635/1200 calories (per heart rate monitor)

    Water...water...water...water...grrrr

    Had to exercise for an extra 500 calories tonight due to eating at Old Chicago and eating 3 pieces of their individual chicago style pepperoni pizza (400 calories a slice!), but it was soooo worth it! lol

    Will work on my water intake this week. Worried, because I got started on some new meds for my neck/nerve pain (Lyrica). Has side effect of weight gain and edema. Hopefully the exercise will help prevent that, but I would sure hate to have to choose between the edema and feeling better...but the pain meds don't help too much anymore.
