    1. I love water, drinking this is no problem. So my own personal challenge is to stick to proportion size on food and stick to a calorie limit. No more over “spending” on my part. I want to be 200 or more calories under my allotted amount. Well I blew my personal challenge but hey there is next week.

    2. Push-ups are not by strong point. I’ll try to do proper ones but I my have to attempt most of them from my knees. Now if this was sit-ups I would have no problem. I was 15 shy of the goal but I did my best.

    From Knees: 280
    From Feet: 65

    3. 3 mile run is no problem. I normally run 2-3 miles 4 times or more a week. I’m always out walking if nothing else. I walk 4 miles with my mom (2-2miles) and if we can me & sister-in-law walk the same or more once a week. i walked 4 miles this week and ran 7.5 miles. So i think I did good.

    Sadly I only lost .6 pounds this week.

    I'm thinking it would help if I had a digital scale but instead I'm just guessing from where it looks like the pointer is. In the long run that's all that matters but when I'm making such tiny small changes then it sucks.

    Anyway, week one...I think I did almost all of my water. I mentally kept note but think I eventually forgot. And I think I did all my pushups...except last night I only did 45 and then forgot to do my last set. :( And I did do the walking because I have no idea how to keep track of my miles since I can't walk outside. But I have been working out still (trying for Insanity 3 x a week plus other workouts) which means today I have to do Insanity or I fail this week.....

    I wish I can do 60 push up in 15 minutes but I did my best on M,T,F. I can feel my shoulder and upper arms are bulking up.
    I finished the other 2 challenge. 2 lbs weight loss this week!

    Lost 2.2 lbs this week, surpassing my goal loss!!! WOOHOO!!

    Now does anyone know if I can update my goal and still show the 26 lbs lost? Basically, I want to extend my progress bar without showing back to zero lost.

    Week 1:

    I did 13 miles in running/jogging this week! I am so proud of myself. I never would have thought I was capable of that, lol. Janie and I are becoming runners!! :D
    I always drink water, so I have no problems there.
    As for the push-ups. Umm, no comment. Lol. I didn't make the challange.

    Good news, I am down 4lbs!! I am less than half way to my first major goal!! I am excited about that. Hopefully, I meet it before 2012. Hopefully running 3 times a week now will make that happen!! :P

    PS: Everyone of you is doing such a fantastic job!! Way to go guys! :)

    I was pleased with the weight loss but I really goofed on the fitness part. I guess I only read the water part and completely missed the rest. So I focused on the water and did fairly well. Some days better than others. The week before this challenge I walked 2 miles every day but life happened this week and I was so busy that I didn't walk. On the positive side I was really busy so didn't have much time to sit around either--was on the go all day so hopefully that helped me burn calories. It really helps me with my eating to know I am going to have to put my weight out there for all to see by the end of the week.

    I am so stoked for this week two challenge. I didn't lose last week, but that's because I was fighting bronchitis, but I'm back and ready to get going!!!

    I weigh-in on Sundays...is that okay?
