    Just catching up on the thread. I like the activity challenge. I did 90 minutes of walking at Relay for Life on Friday night. Was a total bum yesterday, but this morning got up and did Day 6 of Level 2 30DS (30 minutes) and then walked on the treadmill for 70 minutes (3.25 miles).

    Water...well didn't do so well yesterday..only got in 6 glasses again. Today so far have 2 down. I struggle with drinking water.

    Ick it is so hard for me to get my eight glasses when I am not at home! I don't like non-filtered tap water...it may be mental, but I seriously thing I can taste the difference! So, I went and bought water. I do not plan/am not able to work out, but I am really trying to stay within my calories. Yesterday, I at what would have been a maintenance level of calories. So I didn't go waaay over...thank goodness. Today, I am going to end well withing my daily calories, so I am happy about that.

    I am off on my official vacay starting Tues, so that will be a challenge as well. I'm up for it! How is everyone else doing?

    How about everytime you eat something drink a glass of water? Here is what I do. Wake up-drink a glass. Breakfast, another glass and so on. I drink one glass before and after each meal. That takes me to about ten glasses per day, because I eat five times a day.

    I really should have more water with my meals! Its difficult for me to get water in at any other time during work as I work with children with behaviour problems and if I leave my water bottle out I tend to find it either launched across the room or squirted at me :P

    Wow! I've actually managed to get in 8-10 glasses of water a day so far with this challenge! I surprised myself! Yesterday was a terrible day, no exercise, and my husband served me a huge slice of pie with ice cream! Plus, i ate two cookies at work (i work at a bakery) saturday morning, then ate chicken in CREAM SAUCE at the catering function i worked last night! OH MAN! Well, i'll get back on it today!

    Oh, and i like the idea of having a double challenge food/exercise each week. It'll keep us focused on all the important stuff! 8 glasses of water, and 30 minutes exercise, here i come!

    8 glasses of water is pretty much 8x250ml...which is 2 litres. it really isn't so bad. 250 ml is a small cup, just drink everytime you eat, otherwise i have issues with it too

    i haven't drinken anything but coke today, but i will catch up

    and i will try to do some exercise of some form or another before i go to bed tonight. i am so excited because i start a new job tomorrow. i was looking for months for a position, this is a 9 week contract, which sucks, but it is a schedule! a routine! so happy :).

    keep up the good work everybody

    Good luck with the new job!!! What do you do? Congrats, and have fun! Oh, and drinking with meals sounds like an efficient plan, i'll try that!

    Got in my 8 (more like 12) glasses of water today. My head is pounding from allergies and I feel downright horrible...was going to take the day off from exercise, but seeing the activity challenge made me rethink this. I'll just take it easy today and go a little slower. I can do 30 minutes...but back to the full 90 tomorrow.

    Checking in today got off to a slow start for water intake. Have 3 more glasses to go before I head to bed.
    Feeling very tired but happy I got a full 90 minutes of running in today at my soccer game. tomorrow will be better.

(from 151). starting the week off on a good note! just gives me motivation to keep it up!!

    Good morning everyone! Happy to be back here... we were away all weekend with the family. Yesterday was Hershey Park in 97 degrees - ugh, I don't think I have ever sweat so much. :sick: I tried to drink as much water as possible, but I'm pretty sure I was still down from normal levels.

    As great as it was to be away, I'm happy to be back to routine and this challenge. 10 glasses for me today - will help me to return to normalcy.

    Have a good day! :drinker: :drinker:

    500 calorie workout by "the Firm." GET IT. It's amazing. And fun. It's a whole hour. and it's seriously an amazing workout...Highly suggest it...especially for us little ladies, who don't have much to lose, and want to tone up, too! It switches out between cardio, then toning, cardio, toning, etc, etc. I got it at walmart!

    Hola little losers :tongue:

    I've heard good things about the FIRM, Chelsea... glad you're liking it! :flowerforyou:

    I got in 12 glasses of water yesterday, but went over a little bit on my calories. I'm on track with calories for today, am planning to go running once the heat index isn't 101 degrees :noway: and already have 7 glasses of water in... hope everyone is having a great day! :bigsmile:

    had an ok day today. went over by 7 calories, thanks in large part to a glass of wine after dinner - which of course lead me to cave to a molasses cookie. but i did go for a long walk with my fiance after dinner - took it a bit light today because i've hit the last few days pretty hard and have a 30 min interval run planned for tomorrow morning.

    water: 9 glasss
    exercise: 40 mins

    I'm now on my 4 water bottle for the day. I started kind of late. I did intense cardio/toning for an hour earlier. Burned over 500 calories. And definitely stayed within my calories...Didn't eat all of them though...so hard! Still weighing in at around 126. Hopefully I see a change by Friday...I'm going to be working out like a ninja this week! :lol

    Sunday: Got my water in and played two soccer games for about 1 1/2 hour of exercise.
    Monday: Struggling with water today, about 2 more to go and not much exercise, walked dog for about 30 minutes.
