    Checking in for today.....my starting weight is 154.8 and I want to lose 6.8 lbs for the challenge which would put me at 148 lbs. Also my birthday is June 17th and my goal is to be under the 150's by then. I know it's going to take a lot of work for me because the weight is coming off slowly but I'm going to work really hard.

    The challenges are great:) Water is so important. I have noticed since I have increased my water, the weight seems to come off a little faster. I bought a 32 oz water bottle that I take to work so I only have to fill that up twice and there's my 8-8oz glasses of water. I've been drinking more like 12-14 glasses lately.

    Good luck to everyone.....stay plugged in for motivation and support:)

    Ahaha water challenge i have beaten you with the aid of my trusty straw(for today anyway). I dont know why but it's easier to drink water when i have a straw to drink it through. Especially if it's one of those crazy straws you used to have as a kid:embarassed: Yeah that's my style. :happy: I suppose it's more mindless this way.

    Good luck to everyone.

    I love the water challenge. It gives me a reason to implement my water reminder system (that I learned on the MFP forums, I think...). I'll wear 5 silly bands (you could use rubber bands, bracelets, etc.) on my left wrist. I have a 32 oz bottle of water, and every time I drink half of one bottle, I'll move one bracelet from my left wrist to my right wrist. I think it's a fun system, and it will help me remember to drink all my water. :smile: Feel free to steal this idea if you like the sound of it!

    Well, exercize goal met, no problem, working on the water, I'm at 4 glasses so far, but haven't had time to update since work. I've never done a challenge, so I'm wondering how to keep track of this, and if it will just be one horribly long thread? I'm already lost, there's so many pages :noway: !

    I love the bracelet idea! Unfortunately I can't steal it, jewelry at work is a big nono.

    Anyway.

    Current, 170lbs :explode: (TOM next week, don't usually do a pms weigh in!)
    Goal, 160lbs :drinker:

    @ Butterfly - you're right; this is a fast moving thread. We have 62 ladies in the challenge so pages will fly. I normally will go back to my last posting and then read thru. Or if time is short; I'll simply post my information with hopes of going back & reading thru other postings. The most important day to follow will be late Mondays/into Tuesday to see the upcoming week's challenge.

    I reposted the information below for you...with how quickly we're creating pages; we could be at page 20 within the next few days already! :smile:
    For those that haven't been active on other threads, there's 25 postings/page; 20 pages/thread. Once the 500th posting is logged, that posting will include the below 2 lines:
    < continued at this topic >
    < last part of this topic is here >

    Everyone will need to click on the 'continued at this topic' link which will get you to the current thread for this topic.

    Don't worry, though, if you can't keep up with reading all the postings. No matter what your activity level will be on this thread....we're still here to support you!!! :flowerforyou:

    Weighing in...

    SW 4/26 164.4
    GW 6/21 See the 150's! Anywhere in the 150s will be considered a successful challenge for me at this point.

    Water challenge met today, exercise was more like 15 minute walk because of an injured ankle... Happy "meltdown", everyone!
