    I love the idea of mini challenges too. I think that I am going to throw in one for myself. Drinking water is a problem for me. I am going to work up to the 8 glasses per day. I am going to commit to 5 per day this week and add another each week. Right now I am around 2 and that is still something that I remind myself to do. I want it to be automatic. Anyone with me?

    I'm about to go to the gym. I might branch out today and do some of the strength training machines. I usually do just the cardio machines because I don't have a lot of time at the gym (a 2 year old, 1 year old, and newborn will do that to you lol). So maybe some circuit machines today.

    How do you guys count calories for doing the circuit machines at the gym? Or do you count it as strength training only?

    I don't usually eat my exercise calories (unless I'm hungry) so I guess it doesn't really matter.

    A lot of people are talking about uping water intake. Does this aid weight loss?

    It definitely helps me from being too hungry and from retaining water/swelling. Also watch your sodium.

    I'm so with you. I used to be great with getting my water in and I've slacked for so long that it's a chore to get 64oz a day! I've gotten at least that everyday this week so far *fingers crossed* Lol.
