    Try carbonated water, it comes in lemon, lime and even grapfruit flavor. its actually really good, its not the sugar you want but the bubbles!

    For the Daily Challenge, I will work on drinking 32 oz of water which I have been slacking on.

    For the Weekly Challenge, I will work on staying away from the cookies and brownies and cupcakes or anything that might resemble a dessert. Having a sweet tooth and a love for baking makes a weigh loss journey quite difficult!!!!!

    I will def do 32 oz of water
    May or may not do 60 mins of exercise - depends on a bunch of factors

    Will try REALLY hard for 520 minutes of exercise this week!
    Continue to "drop" after dinner snacking

    THANKS!!!

    Daily challenge: 32oz of water, not sure i can do the 60 mins of excersise unless i count housework

    Weekly challenge: Stay away from desserts, one bite and ill eat the whole thing, so try for a cheese stick or a protien drink for dessert instead of cake, cookies, candy etc
  • Daily-I have been trying to up my water intake so this is a great first challenge for me! I will also attempt the 60 minutes of exercise a day. I already do this 5 days a week, an extra two won't kill me...hopefully :)

    Weekly-The one thing I want to cut out is eating after 7. I know this is not one particular item, but it has to be my worst habit. Once I get my little one in bed I just sit and snack until I go to bed.

    AHAHAHA :D I love this!
    I will also attempt to drop the coffee definitely!! This may be extremely hard as I did just get a keurig for christmas *eyes light up like a little kid* but I can make iced tea in it too, and I drink my tea unsweetened anyways. So tea and water!!! here I come!

    I am not quite up to snuff with that much exercise, I have been starting slow, and trying to acclimate myself to doing at least 30 minutes a day until it's within my normal routine! I will definitely DO my 30 though! :)

    Thanks for the motivation love it!!!

    I will take this challenge! :D I'll go out for a walk soon, although I seem to have misplaced my ipod so it'll be a bit boring..maybe I'll just sing songs to myself lol. And I really should learn to like water more, it just doesn't taste all that good to me. Ahh well such is life! Good Luck on the challenge everyone!
  • 32+ oz of water down... will workout when I get home from work... will give up soda for this week and drink more water... and work-in the extra workouts...

    PS messed up on the cheese - dinner tonight at the Lodge (I am observing at present) was pizza and I ate 2 slices before I remembered!

    Well I missed day 1, but I did get in 90 minutes of exercise yesterday! Didn't track my water, but pretty sure I didn't get 32oz of water.

    Working towards the 520 minutes. I should probably cut out the chocolate, but to be honest with a party tomorrow and New Year's on Monday/Tuesday, that's not going to happen.

    I get a no sodium soda water. It's a generic brand. If you want the flavour use real lemon or lime. The preflavoured stuff probably contains scary things. I figured out it was the bubbles I love. Now if I try real soda it tastes funny. Triumph! More expensive carbonated waters like Perrier are my treat now. haha.

    I am walking 60+ minutes every second day and doing the 30 day shred plus often walking 20 or more minute and doing housework the other day. So far so good. Giving up? Ok. Chocolate it is. I really need to do no sugar at all. I am hoping to drop "dirty whites: wheat flour, sugar and liquid cow milk" in January.
