    Can I be in? I don't know that I've ever been WOWWY, but I'm totally ready for it. I'm a mother to three, ages 5,3, and 4 months. I also work full-time. I guess my biggest challenge is finding time to work out.

    @Abby of course you can be in. Just jump right in....

    OK folks, here is the deal. As part of the challenge we are going to continue the ones from yesterday (after all it takes 21 days to make a habit right?).

    So today's eating challenge is:
    64 oz. of water (old)
    5 servings of fruits and vegetables (new) Now just so you know I am using Chocolate Shakeology as meeting my minimum requirement (since it has 5 servings of fruits and veggies right in it), any other fruit or veggies is just a bonus. You don't have to get in your fruits and veggies this way, I am just sharing with you how I am going doing it.

    Today's exercise challenge is:
    25 wall squats (old)
    50 calf raises (new)

    I chose calf raises because they can be done pretty much anywhere at any time. I will try and report how I am doing later. Stu, I and the kids have a long drive in front of us this afternoon. So it may be tricky for me to get online, we'll see how it goes.

    Good luck! :happy:

    I totally got the water in yesterday and am working on it today, but yesterday was a resting day for me (training for a 10k so I workout 4-5 days a week.)

    I did my workout today before I saw the new challenge so I may have to give the squats and calf raises a try later today! This morning I already ran 3 miles and did 30 minutes of weight training! Thursdays are always my weigh in days and this morning I realized I was down another 2.8 pounds!!! Holy moly!!! I love this website, it is truly changing my body for the better!!!!!

    Sorry so late..... I was traveling all day! I got my daily challenge done though.

    As for not having time like was stated you can
    Do calf raises and wall squads anywhere and it
    Doesn't all have to be done at one time. All the challenges
    I am making for moms who have a lot to do and want
    To do something for themselves too.

    Remember to turn from MOMMY to WOWWY you must
    Work at it! Let's do it as a group!!!!!!

    Can I get in on this too. My daughter is almost 4mo, and I haven't been anywhere near a Wowwy in over 4yrs. I want to be at my goal weight by the time she is one (67lbs to go)
