Since Fabuolusfifty is still healing from her surgery I'm posting this week for her.


:drinker: Do you need a midweek boost? I sure do! Join the Skinny Wednesday Challenge and let us help you get "over the hump" with ease ...Here's what it entails:

Think double, double, double! :happy:
Double your exercise~
Double your water intake (within healthy limits)~ :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
Double your willpower to stop eating after dinner and log every tidbit that crosses those lips! :heart:

Just let us know now if you are in....then check in and out when you can tomorrow to let us know how it is going and encourage someone else. Grab a buddy and make the commitment! There is power in numbers....I know one thing for sure.....

I AM SO IN!!! Are you? :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Bring it on Wed! :drinker: :bigsmile: :drinker:

Lets start July off with a great weigh-in! :flowerforyou:

    Good morning everyone well today I need a tall cup of tall dark and handsome. I don't usely drink coffie since I like mine with sugar and cream but I need the caffine today if I am going funtion at all. I stayed up way to late last night oh well can't change that but I log my meals for the day so I know what I have left for snacks. I will be going to the beach to day with friends that are not very calorie aware so today will be a bit tough for that end. Hope every one has a good day talk to you all later.

    I'm in! I so need this today! Woke up in a hungry, snacky mood so this will be a good way to get through the day. Have errands planned for this morning and a trip to the library with the kids but after that we are headed to the track/soccer field. While the boys play I will increase my normal 1 mile walk to 2 miles! And follow it up with an hour of straight cardio, instead of the 30 mins I usually do (thankfully the kids are here to call for help if I need it!!!! LOL)

    Water intake is always a tough one for me so I need to be on top of that today! We will see how it goes :wink:

    I'm in! I could use this today. I have a final in an hour and a half and a doctors appointment, this afternoon. But any extra motivation to work out is great! Good luck everyone!

    Swam for 35min (unofficially, I know it was 35 for sure, but I really think it was 45min..) and have consumed 3glasses of water so far...I'm starting my 28oz bottle of water now to put me at 6 1/2 so far. Next up: situps, jump rope, dancing, and another walk this evening.

    Keep it up all!!! We can do this!!

Talk to you all later!

    Walked for 155 min today, Got out the stroller, laced up my sneakers and did all of my errands and shopping on foot today. I drink about 6 Litres of water a day already so I can't drink much more than that. I am going to do more later and tonight is weigh in night!!

    I am calling it a SKINNY WED! I have logged everything in and upped my water intake. :drinker: I got some stretching, weight work and cruntches in. I also vacuumed and mopped (in a wheel chair - bum foot!) I am sure that burned alot of cals but don't exactly know how to log it! :laugh:

    Heather, you can do it! You put in a great day! Good job on the water intake.

    Timbotina, you can totally handle that movie! You are off to a great start today and you deserve to enjoy a movie with your kids. Just plan to succeed! :flowerforyou:

    naturalshar: Good job on the workouts and eating well! You will be bikini ready in no time! :glasses:
