    @RozayJones---drink up!!! I am currently drinking cucumber / mint water. I think I could drop the cucumber and just do mint...I pick a few mint leaves, smash them between my fingers, put them in a tea diffuser and throw it into a pitcher of water. Very refreshing!!!

    Green: Yes (Chevy style)
    Blue: Yes

    Today has been a rough day food-wise. I didn't have as much control of what I ate as I usually do, but I managed to sneak in my evening workout to stay green. We had a family meeting about my dad and it looks like he has a surgery tomorrow and Monday. Hopefully these two procedures will get him on the mend.

    :sad: Let's talk about my hate relationship with water - I want to drink 8 glasses a day, I want to drink 10 glasses a day. Only when I drink over 3 I feel horrible :( Full, bloated and just uncomfortable......UGH

    I'm officially going to bow out of the challenge for this month :(

    I'm just having a super stressful personal time right now, and work has been crazy, too. I know they are excuses, but the truth is my heart is just not in it this month. :(

    I will see you guys in April!

    Under the weather and have gotten zero exercise this week. Lowering calories because I don't really feel like eating and I can't eat at calories that factor in exercise if I'm not getting the exercise!

    @kawookie---thinking of your Dad and your family!

    @RozyJones--Ok, the water thing. I have heard that it is actually better to consume your water in small doses regularly through the day. So while most of us may consume our water in full glasses (that are likely larger than 8 oz) we should actually consume a smaller amount but on a more regular basis. So they would suggest 4 ounces every 30 minutes(ish). Maybe you should try a much smaller glass but on a more regular basis. So it might seem more like you are taking a "shot" of water ---I would suggest setting an alarm on your phone to remind you to "take a shot". Let me know if this helps at all, I know you've been working on this goal!

    Green: Yes---though I did go a little CARB crazy this afternoon and had to just halt ALL eating before I turned into a dough ball.

    The spring is coming and this year I´m feeling comfortable getting rid of the winter layers of clothes and I´m just only slightly over halfway through my journey :smile: it´s good not to feel self-conscious everytime anybody looks at me on the street and it is also thanks to you guys :flowerforyou:
