    First 32 ounces of water down!! this is a huge accomplishement for me, because it is only 730 am and this is when I usually START drinking water, and only get 32 ounces in at work then 32 ounces at home, so since i have to double the 64 I usually ge to today i'm off to a GREAT start!!

    I'm 28oz in and headed out for a walk, not sure if I'm doing c25k just yet today as it's only 7:10am and it's pretty hot with heat index at 89 already.yuck! So I plan on swimming today for a good 90min and I'll have an evening walk.

    Today is my parents 26th wedding anniversary and I'm waiting for 9am to roll around so I can head over and pick up my brothers for the day. I'm sure they won't mind going swimming after lunch :D TOM is still kicking my *kitten* so I'm trying not to push myself too much, so a walk and swimming shouldn't be too bad for right now. Depending on the cramps, I may dance later. Not sure yet. Hope you all have a successful S.W.!!!

    See ya in a lil while! Bru

    :flowerforyou: I see some great plans of action for a super duper Skinny Wed! Kelly, I wish I was a great planner like you! You are my inspiration today! My goal is to eat light.....up that water (my biggest challenge) and snack only on fruit. I am a snackaholic! If I limit myself to fruit only for snacks I can shave some cals off......Still must hit the mat for exercise (stinkin cast) so I will do that double time! Get that cast changed today....still another plaster cast, but I will be able to put weight on the foot as pain allows after today....anyway......HAVE A SUPER SKINNY WED EVERYBODY!!!! Check in and out and let us know how it is going with you and encourage someone else.

    Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo proud of you! You are diligent, hardworking, beautiful people who deserve to look and feel your very best! Let's rock it today! :bigsmile:

    Good Morning SWC pals...& thx again Fab50!

    I love Weds....my dedicated Zumba day &
    my kids know not to get me all tangled up in their usual run-me-heres....this is my personal day, yea!!!

    Ok, so it's Super Hula Hoop WiiFit+ this morning (just as soon as my college kids leave for class), a round of at-home Zumba (just found an outrageous video online & gotta try it), then off to my fav Zumba class mid-morning!

    Yoga rounds out my afternoon....it's almost as great of a workout! really.
    I always get my water, no probs with 60 - 70 oz.

    I got a 90 minute workout in and burned 865 calories! I'm pleased with my workout today. :happy: I'm also planning on doing some cleaning to burn a few more. Starting on my second bottle of water..

    Okay Breakfast was a breeze! Coffee, Toast w/ preserves, and already 6 cups of water, and a Yoplait Yogurt!
    Now Its 86 degrees outside and I have to MOW THE LAWN! If I don't burn calories there I don't know what will work!
    The past few days have been very slummy for me , and I'm not so sure why! But today will be better! I can feel it!
    So now for 15 minutes of running/warm up, then however long it takes to mow the lawn (yes its a PUSH MOWER, ladies!!!)
    So I'll update later! Talk soon!

    Good job on the water Sassy and Brunette! Keep it up!

    64 oz water and will be drinking more at dinner and before bed. 30 min of Pilates and 30 min of cardio including crunches, squats, lunges, running in place etc. Very tired but happy. I'm going to see if I can squeeze in about 15-20 min more of Pilates after I get home from church tonight. =)

    84oz down the hatch, I finished Week 7 C25k this morning, also did some cleaning and went straight to the pool for my combined 90min for those two. My brothers are finally on their way to my house (I had a flat tire, so my parents are bringing them over) and they want to go swimming, so, it sounds like I'm going for another round of swimming, but maybe for only 30more min I've already burned 1000cal for the day, so I don't want to over do it too much and not be able to eat back a little. Hope you all are still a movin' and a shakin' !!! Bru

    WOW! Fantastic job everyone! Well I got another walk in here on my break at work. I'm outta here in a bit then headed to Zumba. Tonight is Margarita night with my friends, but I'm thinking I won't have any AGAIN! I did it before, so I KNOW I can do it again! :bigsmile:

    I'm hoping to get home at a decent time after meeting with them so I can do some house cleaning & maybe even haul another few loads of dirt from my dirtpile that I've been working on! Hopefully it will be COOLER outside by then. The heat index is atrocious here today! 107 HEAT INDEX! :noway:

    BRU - Happy Anniversary to your parents! :flowerforyou:

    I've got at least another 28oz bottle with my name on it. Just finished up with the boys for another 1hr of swimming, but only logged half. Burned 1298 calories for the day. Nick ordered pizza for the boys so I'm gonna have a few slices and be done for the day. Have a great night everyone and WTG for doing the challenge.

    :flowerforyou: WTG!!! What a great day you had! That goes for everyone! This is a dedicated group of people....so inspiring! :heart: Well, I just got in from a doctor's appt.....got a cast change.....and have 3 more weeks in this one:sad: .....glad to have the hardest part over with and now ready to finish up this process! Had a nice pilates session this morning. Will get a good stretch session in this evening. Kept my cals skinny and drank lots of water! Not done with the drinking (water:laugh: ) yet...chug, chug, chug!:bigsmile: My true success today was nixing the snacks...the challenge makes more conscious of snacking....even though I choose healthy snacks there are tooooooooo many of them. I just kept myself busy......got most of my kitchen cabinets cleaned out! It was a win/win! :bigsmile:

    Hope I catch you on the Skinny Sat. Challenge! It will be posted Friday night......a great way to push right through that weekend!
    Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat job everyone!!!! :smooched:

    Yay! I'm happy to report that I have over 700 calories left today! (I burned 865 with my workout though). I'm not hungry, I don't plan on eating anything else. So I feel like today was a success! I didn't get all my water in though.. But I'm usually good with water, so one day should still be okay. Hope everyone had a great day!

    Over 1000 calories burned so far. Still have the eliptical to do. 12 cups of water in. Had hoped to work out, outside but we are
    "having a bit of a blow", high winds, heavy rain, and lightening. So I think I'll try for the indoors activity. I am having a whole meal for dinner. Grilled steak, grill roasted mixed vegetables, and 1 ear of corn sans butter and salt.

    I planned this grilled meal and refuse to give it up even for a storm, have pulled the grill close to the door so I can just dash out and stir, or check on things and dash back in!

    Thanks all for a great Skinny Wednesday. Love to read of your plans and sucesses! Alice
