    I got my exercise in and my 10 cups of water. Well I did 35 minutes of exercise and 15 minutes of cleaning, so that's good enough for me because I haven't been exercising much lately.

    So excited to join in on this challenge. I would love to be able to lose 30lbs by Christmas. I just started counting my calories yesterday, and I have to say that it's the hardest thing I have ever done. Well, maybe not the hardest, but damn close. I'm trying to stay right around 1500, but have went over slightly. I just keep telling myself that it will get easier. I can't even begin to imagine how many calories I WAS eating before starting to log them. Big wake-up call.

    Anyhoo, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and doing this challenge with all of you.

    SW: 254
    CW: 254
    Christmas 2010: 224
    End Goal: 150

    I actually had set this goal for myself a month or two ago so that I would be 199 by my 39th bday. AT GOAL by 40 in December 27th 2011!

    Current 219
    Christmas Goal 199

    Will there be a daily thread or just Monday's?

    Monday weight - 182lbs
    SW on 10/1 - 190
    Goal by Christmas - 160

    I definitely need to drink more water. 10 glasses a day? I have to force myself to drink 4 glasses a day. I've given up soda, but now I just don't drink much of anything - living in a constant state of dehydration. I'll force another glass down right now!
    See, you're motivating me already :-)

    I'd love to join!

    Starting weight: 164.5 lbs
    Goal weight: 130 lbs

    I'm pretty close to today's challenges, even though I didn't see this thread until now! I've exercised for an hour and eight minutes today, with 48 minutes of continuous walking, and so far I've had eight cups of water. I've got 181 calories left, after exercise, but I went pretty far over my fat limit today (why, oh why must I eat fast food!) so I'm not going to eat too much more. Maybe just some mammoth pecan halves.

    Hopefully that will change in the right direction as it has just been staying there for what seems like forever.

    I want to join - I'm 5'0 as of 10/18/2010 I weigh 174.4 and I want to weigh 144 by Christmas and 125 by June 18th, 2011. I fall off the diet wagon very easy because I am a caretaker of my husband with a lot of stress in my life so I will need lots of support to do this and I am willing to support everyone else!

    SW: 164.2 lbs

    I am terrible about taking my meds, so I will start doing that again, along with my vitamins. I will go to the gym tomorrow, start drinking my water, and eating healthier options.
