just came across and like the idea of your challenge. autumn is a favorite time of year for me. will keep up with your posts and best of luck to everyone!
Me too! I love everything about fall! October is definitely my favorite month of the year!0 -
I don't know the exact start date that the H20 Challenge was issued because I didn't start till last week. I weigh in on Sunday's religiously and will only count what the scale says on that day, so, I am going to post back to Aug. 15 cuz this is week three.
Here are the stats!
8/15 - 231.5
8/22 - 230.5
8/29 - 228.4
9/5 - 225.5
Not sure if I have a 5 or 6lb. loss in regards to the challenge but I will take the losses that are there! If it needs adjusting on the chart, feel free to adjust it!
I did terrible with food choices yesterday and had a LOT of carbs, but, I was with family and had a great time! I think we all need a day every now and again to enjoy some of the things that we wouldn't normally eat on a daily basis. That is the ONLY way this is doable for me!
I'm challenging myself to drink extra water today to undo some of that extra sodium that I had and I am walking another mile!!
Good luck everyone and I hope you all have a wonderful, long weekend!0 -

My eating was terrible this week and I haven't worked out My hubby had a surprise bday party for me friday night and my eating has been bad since. I just don't understand why I do this? I cry and feel like drap and hate myself for being so fat and then I turn around and pig out on something. I'm soooo tired of myself.0

Finally got to replace those darn scale batteries (well hubby did it for me while I was at my moms, I knew I married him for a reason, :laugh: ) and I'm only down .4 for last week and a total of 2.4 out of 20, however, I'll take the .4 and run with it since at one point ( I think it was Friday noght or Saturday morning) I was literally 10lbs heavier due to massive sodium levels this week. So I'm happy to just have my weight back to my temporary norma
So, I went for a run/walk yesterday to keep me moving for the 5k I'm running in 2 weeks (my first one :happy: and yes, you will hear me talk about it for a while ) and I went for 1.89 miles, the 1 mile (exact) was running and it was a 13min mile :drinker: I'm stoked, eventually I want to reach a 10 min minle then maybe an 8min mile, but I'm just happy to have a 13min mile.. As for my 5k, I would love to finish 36-39min but I know I will need to pace myself and walk a little so as long as I can finish, I'll be happy!!
Hope the weekend was fabulous all!! I'll be weighing again (and taking measurements before I start 30 day shred) on Friday so I can get back on my schedule, ta ta for now0 -
I have 15 left.... but am kinda glad I'm holding at 150 this week. I travelled all weekend, and it wasn't the disaster I'd feared....0

I have been doing the same thing for a really REALLY long time. Have you ever thought about keeping a journal? I have a notebook that I write in whenever I feel the need and it's really helped me to realize when I'm going to binge and gives me encouragement not to do it again. Just a thought...hope it helps *hugs*0 -
BrunetteWife - congrats on the 13 min mile - that's awesome!!! :bigsmile:
I forgot to post my starting weight for this challenge - so I'm going to go with 161.6, which is what the scale said this morning. I doubt I lose 20 pounds by Halloween, but I'd be happy with 15 or so...which is about 2 pounds per week.0 -
i am off to get weighed in a minute and I know its going to be a massive fail
Millions of bad food choices, alcohol and about two seas full of salt, can only be a bad thing lol0 -
I'd like to join! I'd like for my weigh in day to be on Friday mornings!0

WTG! a 13 min mile is awesome and i know if you keep at it you'll get that down to a 10 min one and then your 8 min one. Remeber we all believe in you! Keep on, keeping on.0 -
week one- 172
week two- 169
week three- 168
Hey, one pound, I will take it! But I need to start pushing myself a little more to be able to lose 16 lbs! I can do it and so can all of you!0 -
Hi Everyone,
Love to see that everyone is doing so well. I have been MIA for a little while because I was away for a wedding. Definitely indulged this weekend, but went grocery shopping this weekend and going to get back on track. I don't have a way to weigh myself right now, but when I get a new scale I will check in with my weight. I don't think I have changed much since we started this challenge. Everyone keep up the great work. I worked out for the first time in a week today, and although my knees hurt, it felt great.0
