    I am in, this is my first day tracking in a long time, so I want to track everything and stay under my calorie goal. I am also going to try to drink lots of water! Good luck to all!

    I a SO in! I have today off so this will really help me stay aware of what and how much I am eating and drinking!

    Going to do my DOUBLE workout now and hope to get more done later, too.

    My dd wants to take a picnic to a nearby park that has a waterfall so I'll be making something healthy for that, as well.

    See you all later!

    Have done a walking video and a Richard Simmons video so far. Lots of drinking--about 54 ounces so far. We decided against the picnic so I will be getting some more walking in soon. (And more water, too.)

    :flowerforyou: Great job all! Biking, walking, videos, and elipical! That is what I am talking about! Alice, you are a calorie-burning queen! Good job on that eliptical. I did well on my water intake and cals! Had swelling in my recovering foot so the exercise will come on Thurs.

    :happy: We made it over the hump and we are heading into the weekend! Yay!

    Take care of that foot! A recovered healthy body will keep working out, or just keep working.:smile:

    Hi all - sorry I didn't check in last night. Too tired! I didn't get alot done yesterday as my norm, but I did get a quick walk in, 75 calf raises, ran some errands, water aerobics @ the gym, and I ran the stairs at the convention center for 7 minutes! Good God my lungs are still feeling it! It was quite a workout! Surprising tho, my legs don't hurt! So good I guess! :bigsmile:

    I did get 112 oz of water in yesterday!

    See you all on Saturday! :flowerforyou:

    I forgot to check back in!

    I did really well with my Skinny Wednesday Challenge. Drank AT LEAST double my water (it was hot that day) and ended up tripling my exercise because we went for pizza for dinner--it was a fundraiser for a member of my DSs girlfriend's Walk For The Cure Team.
    Other than the sodium that is always in pizza I kept my numbers in line. Lots more water is taking care of the sodium.

    See you all on Saturday!
