    I'm in for this challenge - I have been on MFP for quite some time, but my progress has been great till recently - I need a push to get myself going in this cold weather! I have weigh ins on Monday, and today's was 187. I primarily work out with my Wii (several programs on it) but I've been slacking! I only had one workout last week, and the kids halloween candy has been crying my name! Hoping that a new challenge will help keep me on track (June was my 2nd goal - still working on my first LTG to lose my first 50 by Christmas - only 12 lbs away from that!)

    My goals are to get back to drinking more water, and to get my workouts back to up to 4 a week!

    Ok Everyone.... Let's post our daily workouts/efforts here! I posted yesterday. I think it would be a great way to keep us accountable!

    BAINOS : I type daily challenges on the 30 Pounds by Christmas thread.... Do you think we could do something like that here? just a thought to give us something to keep us focused?? If not that's ok!

    Good morning everyone,
    Yesterday I didn't eat my exercise calories!!!:bigsmile:
    I did 25 wall pushups, 50 lunges,25 squats. and 1 hr of aqua class. Best exercise day in months.

    My question for the day. What do you snack on?

    I only eat the same few snacks.
    am break- 100 calorie pack of natural almonds
    pm break- either an apple or 90 calorie fiber one bar. Depends on if I am craving chocolate or not.
    after diner only a couple day a week - 100 calorie Ice cream bar.

    KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK...WE"VE GOT THIS!!!

    I'm completely in on this one. I'd love to be 50 lbs lighter by my birthday on June 6th! :) I've lost 14 since mid September so my starting weight for this challenge is 261.6. I will be 211 if I lose the 50 lbs by June, yay!

    I did well yesterday. I was under on my calories. The only exercise I did was 25 wall pushups. I never count those or the pool lunges and squats. I only count the hour aqua class.

    Everyone have a great day...stay focused on our goal.:flowerforyou:

    This will be our hardest time with the Holidays just around the corner we have to stand strong.
