    Water, 1/2 way there
    45 Minutes activity done and then some
    did 5 mins of streching
    And under calories thats as good as done, but i will check back in later:drinker: :smile:

    Why I decided to join this challenge was I needed a change. My other support group on here just kinda fell apart:brokenheart: . I need all the modivation I can get! And I like to be competitive, so why not?

    update water drank as much as I could ... didn't make it:frown:
    under calorie done :happy:
    streching did 15 mins:indifferent:
    And did 50 something minutes of excercise
    I will have to try harder tomorrow:wink:

    I did pretty good today! =)
    12 cups of water - started pushing it right as soon as I woke up and did it! Just drank my last 4 oz!

    45 min of exercise - only did 30, but I started Zumba on the Curves circuit! How fun!!!!!!

    Under Calories - yep!

    I joined because I am needing some motivation! The 2 girls I am "dieting" with, have lost their motivation and don't seem to be getting it back anytime soon! I want to stick with this and I need a way to keep me on track! =)

    what can I say I am a night owl so all my post for the challenges will be done at night. Todays challenges were awesome and gave me motivation to get through today! 12 cups of water COMPLETE! 45 mins of activity COMPLETE and then some!! under calories COMPLETE!

    Bonus. I joined this challenge for motivation! I was browsing the forums and came across this post. I am new to MFP so i read and it seemed like an awesome challenge and manageable given only averaging 1 pound a week! I sure hope I can do this but i know with my determination and the support of everyone in this challenge it will be in my grasp!!!

    Thank you again for everyone that is coming together to make this happen!!!

    12 Cups of Water - Nope, but I think that's unrealistic for me. I've had 10 already and I feel like my eyeballs are floating in my head! I'll keep trying though.
    45 Mins of Exercise - Done. Tae Bo kicked my butt today!
    Under Calories - Yes, but I really wanna eat a burger right now.

    I joined because I wanna make sure that I succeed this time around and make it a change for good. I definitely have a problem with accountability and I'm hoping this will help me out. So far so good. My husband is my diet sabotage. He likes all the food I shouldn't eat and I'm a social eater, in addition to an emotional eater. I have little will power. So I'm hoping that seeing others in the trenches with me will keep me motivated to keep trying. :)

    I joined this challenge because Posh is a great motivation with her positive attitude and daily challenges. Hopefully by the end of this challenge, I will be at my goal weight. That would be great because I started my MFP weight loss journey with Posh's Christmas Challenge and I'll be able to reach my weight loss goal with the Easter Challenge.

    The time zone difference for this site and my home , as well as my being an overnight worker 3-4 days/week makes my postings a little off
    Here is for Tuesday 2/15 :
    12 cups of water--Nope/sorry ..I am up peeing as is now...did 5 H20,/5 generic crystal light watered way down = 10 clear fluids
    45 min exercise - yes counting cleaning = 50 (15 exercise bike ...way too icy/cold outdoors.../15cleaning/20 line dancing)
    under calorie - heck yes
    Why took challenge - Was in a challenge group that dwindled to 2 people....looked for another and here I am... also because inskydiamonds is awesome; I do the recipe challenge with her.

    Thank you insky for doing all that you do to help/motivate us and all the work with charting/spreadsheet !

    Did 12 cups of water exactly.
    Did 1 hour 5 minutes of exercise yesterday.
    Was under calories.

    I did the challenge because it's a great way to track progress (other than doing it on your own) and I think it's a great way to chat it up with others who are doing the same!
