Challenge for october

lstnlondry

As of October 10th this is how I am doing with my challenge:

1.I had 144 oz of water today-I had a Big workout today (out of 128oz)
2. I exercised for 166 minutes total (out of 90 mins each day)
3. I completed my log but I'm over because I worked out big time-and I love food. (daily calorie goal is 1500)
4. I completed my food diary as honestly as I could.

my starting weight is 192 and I have a cute red shirt I would like to fit into. Thanks for this challenge that I will report on daily.

I changed some goals in my diary to reflect all these awesome challenges I am in lately. I hope to burn 5000 calories a week, workout at least an hour & a half and a weekly challenge to chart 25 miles!!

I just want to say that I am proud of everyone in this challenge!! Your energy gives me additional strength and I DO NOT feel alone if I have struggles OR just plain bad days. You guys are awesome!!

As of October 11th this is how I am doing with my challenge:

1. I had 128 oz of water today- (out of 128oz)
2. I exercised for 98 minutes total (out of 90 mins each day)
3. I completed my log but I'm over because I worked out big time-and I love food. (daily calorie goal is 1500)
4. I completed my food diary as honestly as I could.

my starting weight is 192 and I have a cute red shirt I would like to fit into. Thanks for this challenge that I will report on daily.

I had a good day today but I really don't know how realistic it is for me to stick to a diet of under 1500 calories a day!

Kelene616

Ok so today wasn't so great.. Started out with a massive headache and then gave in to a buffalo wing craving ( I had six).. But I still managed to burn almost 400 calories and drank all my water and was under my calorie goal. So it wasn't all bad. Thank you to everyone here. You all are so inspirational and are doing an amazing job!

I had a great day yesterday - went for a run, did some yoga, stayed on plan, and had over 70 ounces of water. I hope today is a repeat - good luck to all!

ladyrayado

Good Morning all! I had another "on" day yesterday. I drank all my water, stayed on diet, and even tried cutting back on my coffee intake a little. My friend and I tried out a corn maze - due to our amazing navigation skills, we ended up lost and wandered for over two hours. According to my pedometer, we walked around three miles - on accident! Hurray!

I'm so glad everyone is posting as well, and thanks to all for the constant support and motivation!
