    Hi everyone!

    We are on Wednesday here in Aus so I will report on this challenge:

    WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE 10/27/10

    10 Water, Under Cals, 50 minutes exercise, 10 minutes stretching or Yoga for relaxation and flexibility training

    I'm at 8 glasses of water and 40 mins of exercise at 3 30pm.

    After work I'm playing a game of basketball with my summer team, which will add another 45 minutes of exercise and probably a good 1.5litres waters. I'll so some stretching after I get home from my game.

    So far, so good!

    (And in the interest of full disclosure I re-weighed myself today as I just estimated when I did my first post.... my starting weight is actually 162.3 pounds, not 160 as I first stated :blushing:)

    Keep up the great work everyone!

    xx

    Hi everyone. Just reading some of the posts and wanted to join. Is this a check in everyday? Which I probably need lately I have been so off track in calories. Blah! Anyway, I see the goal is to drink your water, work out and eat under calories every day. Wish it was that easy.

    I will check in tomorrow, hopefully today is the day Dorritos and candy do not find me at 7pm.

    Well I did so good yesterday. I exercised and ate right. I actually was a little under my calories. This morning I splurged on Mcdonalds, but i brought a healthy lunch and snacks for while I am at work. I plan on doing some lite weights on my lunch break.

    FINALLY got in 10 glasses of water (and I haven't even had dinner yet). Whew!
    30 minutes walk through park - still taking it easy on my knee
    I'm going to do as the daily challenge suggests and do some yoga tonight before bed. I'm very sore from my physio session, so perhaps it will help!

    Gotta push the cardio somehow tomorrow - i want a big weight loss week this week. If the knee is sore, I'm thinking of upper body work, like shadow boxing with a few kicks thrown in (if they don't hurt). Wish me luck. I wish you all lots of luck and motivation!

    Go to Community, and then look right above the forums and click on Signature. Anything you want to show up in all your posts, put it there. To put your weight loss ticker there, copy the code from the Tools tab and paste it under Signature.

    Is that what you mean?

    The good news: I forgot to post my weigh in on Monday, but my starting weight was 139 and I'm now at 137.5!
    The bad news: I've been on such a huge cardio exercise kick that I actually really hurt my achilles tendon and now cannot exercise for at least 2 weeks (maybe more) depending on how quickly it heals - doctors order :( I've very bummed about it but I'm hoping just continuing to track what I eat and drink water and do weights and abs and pilates, I'll still be able to stay on track and lose weight, but just at a slower pace. Fingers crossed!

    Hey everyone, you're all doing so well.

    I just got back from walking for an hour in some really strong wind gusts. People were kinda staring at me as I was walking, I think they thought I was crazy.

    Yesterday's check-in:
    Water - done
    Exercise - no, day off
    Under calories - done

    Today I will get in all of my water with no problem. I will be under calories. I have got my exercise in and I will try some yoga tonight if I can find some on Exercise TV since I have never done this. And maybe walk some more tonight after work, but I am a little shy about it since I do not get off work until midnight. I really wish I would have someone to walk with at this time of night.

    Have a good everyone, need to go get things done before work.

    Hey everyone! Just checking in. I haven't been doing a very good job the last few days logging my calories though I have been watching what I eat and I'm sure that I have been under my cals. I have been drinking quite a bit of water wich is hard for me to do (I have to add crystal light). I haven't been exercising very much because I have been running like crazy at work and I have been so tired when I get home that I just couldn't make myself do it. Everyone is doing great and I can't wait to see everyone's results next week.

    P.S. GREAT JOB ON THE SPREADSHEET!!!!
