    I am a day late but would love to join!

    Current weight: 141 lbs
    Goal weight: 125 lbs

    I LOVE water so I'll gladly add in an extra two glasses a day.
    Exercise I'd like to do this week is the plyo DVD from p90x!
    I have been under my calorie goal everyday since I've started MFP!

    Tip for people who don't care for water that much... Try making tea! Yum :)

    Good luck everyone! Can't wait to see all our progress.
  • I'm in. I have a goal to be able to run 5 miles by August 31. So Im close to your timeframe. I'm currently run/walking 4 miles so I'm hopeful that i will meet this goal! :-)

    irebel: I have no idea about that! I'm sure it depends on what you're doing to lose weight/exercise

    Also, for people who want to participate, only people who have provided a start weight have been added to the sheet. Anyone can post, obviously, but I'm only tracking people who are posting their weights.
  • Cool, I'll just assume that I'm in.

    Taught Karate tonight for 4 hours. Only about 1.5 hours of it was exercising for myself though. Plus, my birthday is tomorrow and my students surprised me with cake, which I happily obliged them by wolfing down. I'll call tonight a wash.

    Tomorrow will be a good day. 30 minutes of calisthenics and 1 hour of Kickboxing drills to teach, followed by an additional hour of Kickboxing sparring. Nothing burns calories like getting kicked in the head. :D

    Good luck to everyone else doing the challenge!

    Happy Wednesday everyone! Hope you all are having a great week so far!

    Challenges for this week:
    Water: I usually don't drink water so I took on the challenge and drank 32 oz today! I never drink this much and boy did I have to use the bathroom a lot! LOL
    New exercise: I started a new workout program called Insanity on 5/28/12!
    Calories: I'm under calories today! That's 2/7 for me this week!

    Drank my extra water yesterday but thats about it :frown:

    I was "bullied" into going out for dinner and cinema so went over my cals and didnt have time to exercise. Never mind right back on track today. only a few hundred over so I can make that up over the next day or 2 :ohwell:

    Decided my new exercise will be the 30DS and will be keeping it up until the end! (will be taking rest days probably once a week)

    Hope you're all well today :flowerforyou:

    I was persuaded to go out for dinner and then the cinema too! I had a cocktail, burger and fries, the works.. But I don't feel so bad about it as this week's challenge is to stay under calorie allowance 5 out of 7 days.. So I'm still on track!

    Ugh! I went over by 80 calories by the end of Wednesday. I did get in all my water plus some. That helps. I only did the 30 minutes of Wii Just Dance which was new for me. Today will be better for keeping my calories under - on the run all day. Have to keep mindful once I do get home tonight though. That's the worst part of the day for me when it comes to eating.

    Everyone have a great day!
