Hey, so I thought it would be a great idea to start a thread for those of use trying to get out of the 230s we can help motivate one another on our way to the 220s. I'll start:

Hi everyone I'm Chantel, what I did today to get out of the 230s, drank over 13 cups of water (that's a first) and this week I've been trying some calorie cycling. Oh, forgot to mention, I normally WI on tuesday mornings after my workout.

    For those of us trying to get out of the 230s today's challenge is simple, consume a minimum of 12 cups of water. So far I've had 3 :embarassed: How's everyone else doing?

    DRINK UP!

    I busted out a couple weeks ago...229.5 last week, 228 this morning...HOLLA AT YO BOY!!!!
    My diet was decent, but not great, but It's a good compromise between being easy to do, and eating cardboard.
    I plateaued at 233 for a long time, but then I started walking after work at a local park, and I bought a bike last week, and I'm having a great time blasting around on it. I would like to hit 200 by the end of the year, and I think my goal is really realistic without restoring to eating like a rabbit.

    WTG, that's awesome you have me considering purchasing a bike now, but love your time frame for your goal. I'm pretty sure you'll reach it by December best of luck getting out of 220s!
