    Well...I am on my 3rd 24 oz. bottle of water for today! YAY! And I always drink plenty at home also! I'm usually pretty good about drinking water, and my body definitely tells me if I haven't!

    I drink a lot of Kool Aid at home with Kiddo, so I think I get in decent amounts but I'm trying my best to drink it straight today.

    Bumping for tomorrow. Although I have/had reached my goal, now I'm having a hard time staying in it. And of course, those last 5 vanity pounds are still there, but I'm content with them either way. So onto the scale tomorrow morning, rain, shine, or cupcake. (Oh yeah, I made 70 mini peanut butter with bacon cupcakes for my BF who wondered what they tasted like together - TOO GOOD!!!)

    Ok. Ladies I am back!!! Fresh starts. I've maintained my weight for the most part but I feel SOOOO ready to get out of the 160's and into the 150's again. Then 140's, 130's, 120's lol you get the point!


    I'm off to workout! I've been working out burning 1000 calories on several days and eating better so I think the pounds will start to move soon!

    Hello ladies. I am not going to make excuses for myself or the terrible year I had with my weightloss. I gained overall for the year. It really sucks. But on the horizon is a new year with new goals.

    I like the water tracking. It would be a good starting point. I used to drink TONS of water. In fact I would drink way too much water, and yes that is possible. After returning to the working world last february I have done horrible. I work in a medical facility where you are encouraged not to have food or drink at your desk. I try to wolf down water on break but I am horrible at it. So, this new year I am just going to bring a bottle of water and put it in a drawer. When I dont have patients, I will pull it out and drink. I know I would feel so much better if I did.

    Goal for this week: 105 ounces of water per day!

    So in need of this challenge and definitely your support. I'm feeling like maintaining is harder to stick to than not. Like now I give myself too many excuses for overeating. I have been exercising like crazy too. I can't tell if I'm exercising so much because I'm overeating. Or am I overeating because I'm exercising more.

    Love the idea of the water. I have been terrible with it, and lack of it shows up on my skin and my bowels. Especially my skin this time of year.

    You guys are awesome. I love your support, your encouragement, your confessions of each other and me. Even though I don't always have time to respond as often as I would like and comment, I am always thinking of you guys and constantly at least peeking in to see how everyone is doing.

    Let's make this new year the one that shows the big differences inside and out!!!

    good morning.

    as soon as the sun comes up a little more off to walk outside. it's in the mid 50s this morning.
    water goal for today is 3 16oz glasses.
    steps for this week is 5000 a day, at least 30 mins of exercise a day.

    i am going to find a book my doctor wants me to get. looking for something else for hubby. he had wanted a very expensive book for Christmas, all about different bugs. so i got him that. i just don't want it to be the only thing.

    off to dress and head out.

    I hate winter, I hate unnatural levels of stress, and I hate late night snacking. I am refusing to weigh in today.. I will wait for the number to go down tomorrow.

    Cathy - You are definitely back in the game. We need you for all your updates and encouragement. Hope your hand is doing better.

    B- I am so with you. I haven't weighed in this week yet as I feel very "bloated" (Couldn't possibly have anything to do with my salt and junk food intake!) Definitely weighing in on Friday, heck or high water.

    Sandy - How's that water going? If I don't finish them by the time I am done work at 9 a.m., very rarely will I ever get them in. I usually tell my level of dehydration by how much and how often I need to drink water during my exercise classes. That lets me know that I didn't drink nearly enough during the day if I'm dying of thirst during.

    Have a great weekend everyone. Be safe. Be happy. Be healthy (with a little bit of "badness" in there :wink: )

    Good afternoon everyone!

    Water Update
    I would like to drink at least 5- 16.9 oz bottles of water in a day. UGGG....it is 4:18 and I am still on bottle # 2. Where is my motivation? I know where my brain is...it is on vacation mode. Once I get off at 5, I will be off for 10 days!!! My goal though is to drink 1 more bottle before I leave work, then fill up again. And while I am standing in line with the kids to get their pic taken with Santa I will drink another. That would then be 3, so I need to figure out how to fill in 2 more. I think I can try real hard to squeeze it all in.

    Exercise Update....NADA....I still an afraid to start working out since I sprained my ankle back before Thanksgiving. And plus I have been cramping for the past week and a half....ERRR!! Sometimes I hate being a woman!!!

    Good luck to everyone and Merry Christmas!!

    Lauren
