    Weigh in today 136 pounds. Did not lose anything which is discouraging.
    Did 50 push ups
    Spent time with my loved once this long Canadian weekend!
    Sugar is my area that I am always over. I have made changes to improve that. Where I go over is I have a banana daily and in the milk that I put in my coffee. I don't add sugar to my coffee, but with the banana and milk I am always over. I have tried other milks and fat free creams but don't like any of it. So try to watch my added sugar and treats. Not perfect, but getting better.
    Up coming challenges
    Love the water challenge!
    Area I neglect is my abd, will try to work on that
    I have found this summer challenge to get me on track and to be accountable. It is hard as my weight loss is getting harder now. I have been exercising at least 5+ times a week, which is more than ever, and the scale doesn't move. I have also been trying to be a bit under my daily calories. Slowly, but surely. Would like to get to my goal weight by Aug 28th, but would be happy to be anywhere uner 130 lbs--even 129!

    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?
    WATER - Got this!
    BODY - I neglect by muscles! LOVE Cardio but don't do enough strength training. I'm doing a Body Sculpting Class today after my cardio to start this week's challenge off right.
    CHECK-IN -
    Thank GOD for this Challenge! It is keeping me going.
    I stray a little here & then but checking in every Tuesday keeps me focused on the goal.
    I have lost about a total of 5.5" when you add my chest, waist, hips & thigh measurement losses up.
    My body fat% has gone down.
    I have logged into MFP 30 days in a row (my newest record!)

    current weight 184.1
    down 3.3 for the week!

    The water part is easy for me...That's pretty much all I drink all day. I guess the body part I've been neglecting is my abs. I started the c25k, and I have been doing a lot of swimming, so that covers almost all of my body.

    Starting weight (Monday June 25th): 149.6 pounds

    Tuesday June 26th Weigh In: 148.9 pounds: Lost 0.7 pounds

    WEIGH IN TUESDAY JULY 3RD: 146.0 POUNDS: LOST 2.9 POUNDS!
    Sooooo happy and proud of myself for getting back on track last week.

    Did 50 wall push ups as I still have a knee injury so couldn't do the ones I regularly do on my knees.
    Only logged my food for part of the week and I know I wasn't under my sugar every day but think I was for a day or two! ;)
    Spent time a lot of time with my parents.

    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.

    June results:
    - Lost 5lbs not 6(like I had hoped for)

    6/5/2012204lbs (-1) 5lbs to go for June
    6/12/2012 204lbs (-1lb)
    6/19/2012: 203.5lbs (-1.5lbs) 4.5lbs to go
    6/26/2012: 201lbs (-2.5lbs) 2lbs to go for June (Can it be done?)
    6/30/2012 200lbs (-1lb)
    GW:199lbs Actual weight: 200lbs (1lb shy) :grumble:

    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

    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.
