    Congrats, everyone!
    I'm looking forward to this week's challenge that better not include anything so gross and chugging milk all day ;)

    This week challenge will be chugging water since milk was gross to some:laugh: !!!

    So this week challenge is to drink at least 10 cups of water per day!!

    Plus for fitness walk a total of 5 miles I know for some this will be a easy challenge and for that those who are already doing this or more add an additional 5 miles to your weeks total!!! Then if you don't feel your doing anything and been walking for months do a little jogging to mix it in!!

    If that's not challenging enough

    Using whatever weight level your at do 25 deadlifts a day knees slightly bent back straight shoulders back go over take weights to ankle and then back up repeat til 25
    Next do 25 arm curls with palms facing up, next palms facing each other
    Last I forgot the name but do 25 keep arms straight with weight in hand bring arms up to chest level and back down

    If you been doing weights already take it up a notch so if you were doing 5lbs do 8lbs and so on, the point is to challenge yourself.

    So let's get ambitious and do all three!!

    thanks charmaine.....
    i'm in....
    water - i'll do my best to go past the goal of 10 to 12 as i typically get in 10 a day anyway...
    miles - i'm shooting for 18 miles this week starting today....
    strength training - i will do the deadlifts, arm curls and front arm raises whenever i'm at the gym/YMCA cause i dont really have the significant amount of weight i need at home - will probably get them in wed, thurs and saturday....

    i need to get a few additional sets of heavier weights to do stuff at home.....i have 3s but they are not enough for some of this stuff...i need 5s, 8s, 10s.....

    Yesterday I drank 12 cups of water and I did all the weight workouts I used 8lbs for the dead lifts and arm curls. Then I used the 3lbs for the hammer curl and the straight arms it was too light but the 8lbs was too heavy so today I am going to push to do half if not all with the 8lbs.

    Plus I am going to get some of the walking in today.

    lol dinos...gotta do it...i started this chart with my local biggest loser group like 2 1/2 yrs ago...it worked for us so i figured it would work for us here too.....it gives the best picture of where everyone is cause it's not always about lbs lost when you have a greater percentage to lose LOL....thanks for checking out my handiwork....

    Wow, it's a lot of work to keep this updated, my hat is off.
    If it was Excel I would urge you to use pivot tables, but I don't know if it can be done in Google spreadsheets.

    I havent made this my official MFP weigh in yet, because Fridays are my normal weigh in days. Somewhere in the back of my head its screaming Kelly you dope....you will be 199 on friday again lol. I know its an incredible amount of weigh loss in one week. All I can say is I think I was retaining quite a bit of water from some extreme gardening. Have a great day everyone!!

    3/21: START WEIGHT 199.6
    3/24: 198.4
    3/31: 199
    4/07: 193.4

    Actually excited about weigh in tomorrow! I saw 275.4 yesterday, so I'm holding out hope that it's about the same tomorrow. Especially since I've been sick and am using this week as a rest week I'd be very happy if that were the # tomorrow! Will check in tomorrow with the official weigh in #!!!
