NEW CHALLENGES:
- Drink at least 8 cups of WATER a day. Try to increase it even more if you can!
- Work on a part of your BODY that you've neglected more than others.
- Check in: How is this challenge going for you so far?

-I started counting how much water I drink in June. I try to get 8 cups but I usually get around 6. Gonna try this week to get in 8 cups!!!
-I work on all parts of my body! Doing the Insanity workout makes you work on all the major body parts!
-Just started today! Will update later on this week!

Well i never got a walk or anything in yest - had some storms going thru. Do plan to do 30min on the treadmill at some point today along with some crunches and pushups. Did go over my cals yesturday but was still under 1500, which I am okay with.

Water is no issue for me, I drink at least 96 oz a day. I am going to try to focus on my arms and abs this week. And my goal is to get on the treadmill 3 times this week, so today and Friday for sure.

July Goal: 194 / Summer goal 189 by 8/30

Will be drinking 8 -10 glasses of water a day
Will be working on my back, have been neglecting that area, which is surprising because that is where the back fat is. and The back fat must die!!!!lol
So far during this challenge I have lost 5lbs and have 11 more to go to reach my goal of 189 by August 30th. I have also become more aware of the fact that my diet contains way too many sugars and sodium. So I have to get that in check so I can reach my goal successfully. Thanx so much for this challenge. It is really putting things in perspective for me. I would really love to be one of the biggest losers for the week at some point.lol

Just in case you didnt catch my weightloss :
As of 7/3/2012 200lbs

bleistiftspitzer

160. Again.
Ugh, I've binged the past few days, and I just really feel like I'm losing it. I also started 30DS, and I'm on day 5. At least it'll keep me moving.

I'm checking in early, getting ready to walk out the door for vacation and won't have internet most of the time.
CW:133
Up a tad, started 30 DS and read it's common to gain a little in the beginning.(??) I'm on day 12, so hopefully the scale starts dropping here soon!
Have a great week everyone!

livextoxrun

So I kind of stopped using my fitness pal the past two weeks. I was on vacation and just kind of stopped. Didn't eat too unhealthy but i just wasn't counting calories at all. i'm not weighing myself tomorrow though, i'll wait until next week. Marathon training starts this week!!! So i'm going to get back on mfp. i'm always surprised by how many calories i can actually eat on long runs. when i was training for my half marathon i would try to restrict too much and then end up binging. It wasn't a good cycle. I'm happy to be back and to be training again and doing it right this time!!!

inskydiamonds

Everyone, don't forget to weigh in tomorrow!

CHALLENGES:
- Add 15 minutes of exercise to your current routine, but add in something you don't typically do
- Watch your sodium! Try to stay under the goal!
- Check In: How has the summer challenge been for you? Would you want to do another challenge after the summer is over?

rebeccahenn

Goal right now - Im at 145 and I would like to be between 135 and 140. Last time I was this weight I was doing green tea supplements and eating salad for lunch and dinner EVERY DAY. but that was just for prom, because I can't live like that. I started the insanity work out plan and I am cutting down to feeding my sweet tooth once or twice a week rather than every day! hopefully that'll be the extra push that my body needs to get those lean mean abs =]

EmmaM2211

Weigh in day!! Had a pretty bad week....a few bingy days and although before my bingy days I was down to 151.6 I weighed in this morning at 152.6 :-( so no loss this week! Hoping I can have a couple of pounds off this coming week though!! No more binging and I'm going to stay in the green every day!!

Love this weeks challenges. Sodium is my devil!!

I've loved this challenge, keeping me accountable and keeping track of my goal for my holiday! I've love another challenge for the autumn as my next goal is to lose a stone between September and November before my birthday to get to my initial goal weight!!! (could be subject to change when I get there though...)

Thanks soooo much for doing this InSkyDiamonds xxx

livextoxrun

well i decided to weigh in this week even though i said i wasn't going to because i got off track while on vacation for 2 weeks. i didn't lose anything, i am 112. however, i am happy about it. i thought for sure I'd gained a few pounds. hopefully i will go down next week!

LadySuze

I'm checking in again

SW:176.4
W1:172.6
W2:172.6
W3:170.9
W4:169.3
W5:168.2
W6:177.8
GW:154

I didn't lose that much, but a loss is still a loss, so I'm happy

I'm starting yoga again this week, so the 15 extra minutes shouldn't be a problem. I also don't have a lot of trouble with keeping my Sodium under 2,500...
So, the challenge is going great, and I would love to do another one after this one ends.

Good luck everyone!

I didnt really keep track. Im sure I made it some of the days tho.

- Work on a part of your BODY that you've neglected more than others.
I barely worked out wasnt a good week for me

It's been really good. I've had a bad week or two but overall I am enjoying the challenge

So i've put in 2 pounds this week. I messed up over the weekend. Drank too much wine and ate fast food, so it's my own fault.

Need to make sure i'm under my calorie goal this week and sticking to my water aswell!

kyrstin__1188

Good morning! I weighed in today at 135!

I'm going to work on adding to my workout. I want to start the C25K program, but right now its so hot out I haven't been able to.

Sodium - I think I usually do ok with it and lately I've been trying to drink more water to help, but I'll keep a closer eye on it this week.

Challenge - I do like doing this challenge, it helps to keep me accountable. I would really like to do another one after the summer challenge ends!

gmarrier

SW - 220.2

CW - 213 - 7.2 lbs down so far

GW - 199.9 - 13.1 lbs to go - I can do it!!

Goals this week - to drink all my water every day

andreamkelly

Weight this morning was 207.8. I did really well with the water at least 12 cups a day, usually more. I did work a bit more on my arms, used the shaker weight and bought arm and wrist weights. Probably could have done more. This weeks goals. -

Exercise 15 minutes more a day. I did day one of c25k yesterday with my daughter. But she should be in week 4 and I barely made it for day one, and I don't want to hold her back, so I will try it on my own when I get home from work today. I'm really not interested in running 5k though, so......

Sodium.... what can I say.. I look at sodium and calcium before I look at calories. I've stayed under 1,500 mg for most part and will continue in the coming week.

I really love the challenge and appreciate all the work and thought you are putting into it. I would love to do another!

I think I need a new goal though. Can you change my goal from 15 to 25 pounds? My luck I will hit my first plateau, but lets try for it Thanks again!!
