    Tomorrow I will put together a spreadsheet of everyone involved so we can easily track our progress as individuals and as a group.

    With that being said, here are your challenges for this week!

    - I challenge you to drink TWO more 8-oz cups of WATER a day than you normally do
    - I challenge you to find a NEW exercise that you do at least once this week
    - I challenge you to stay under your calories at least 5 of the 7 days this week

    I'm in. Perfect timing as I have a goal to drop 30 pounds by the time I run a 5K on Labor Day.

    CW = 208
    August 28 GW = 178

    This summer I am committing to getting back in the gym several times a week and finish training for this race.

    Anyone please feel free to add me. I am currently just watching my calories and trying to eat a more balanced diet. I am really considering going low carb for a while. Any suggestions on LC considering the time frame i have to train?

    I want in! This is the first challenge I have ever done. I am doing my first 5k in July and less weight would be helpful. I'm trying to work up the courage to take a Spinning class at the Y.

    Current weight 223

    Would love to be 199

    GW= 140(Nov 24th)

    My goal for this week would be to push myself during my cardio exercise and try to get to at least 45min by the end of the week. Eating wise trying to maintain what I do during the week on the weekends, eat more constantly throughout the weekend.
