    Have you tried keeping a water bottle or reusable cup with you? It helps me A LOT.

    I always have a bottle of water with me, but my cardio is normally pretty flat-out running so I'm scared I'll fall on my face when I reach for it during a run, hahah. I did drink water a lot today though, replacing my snacky urges with water instead, and I only have one more cup to drink for the day!

    I also bought 30 Day Shred today, so I'm excited.

    Everyone is joining! Just make sure you are doing the three things everyday & you are more than welcome to be a part!!!

    Okay so update with me:
    Got my jogging in today!! WOOOO!
    Got my water
    Did great on calories
    I am REALLY hoping to get back to my low weight by Sunday, I'm about 2 lbs aways based on what I weighed this morning. 221.4 or something... I'm really hoping I can lose some water weight and fat & weigh less in the morning.
    Hope that all of you weight loss junkies are doing great today!! Keep up the good work. =)

    This has been working really well for me so far! drinking a HEAP of water, averaging around an hour of exercise a day,and stayed under my calories every day apart from yesterday -- had a gig and ended up drinking a couple of beers and wines which brought me about three hundred calories over :( also didnt exercise as much -- but still got in 30 minutes of cardio. Knowing I have to answer to someone is great hahaha hope everyone else is doing well.

    I'm cool with 30 minutes cardio but definitely don't drink enough water.

    Half-way point: Weighed in this a.m @ 127.8# :happy:

    Sundays are my normal weigh-in day. I always weigh myself 1st thing in the morning, after using the bathroom & before eating. I takeoff everything, even my rings. (The ponytail holder can stay :tongue: ) I also always measure my waist at the same time, as waist expands even a little after eating anything. If I don't have time to do all my measurements at once, that one is done.

    Do you need us to keep our weights in a specific format? Telling you in each progressive weigh-in post our Starting Weight, Current Weight, & our End Weight? Or are you able to keep up with it with us posting just our weigh-in?

    Try boiled water, but after it has cooled down a bit. For some that is better than straight normal cold water.
