    Drinking 8 cups of water is turning out to be way harder than I thought. It's been suggested to drink through a straw though.
    I'm at 3 and it's 4pm already, gonna try to get those last five in before I sleep. :D

    I keep a 16oz (2 cup) glass next to me filled with water when I'm studying. I manage to go through them super fast.
    Try doing something where you're always with the water, be it a water bottle or whatever works given your situation.

    So far so good...

    Tuesday: Got the 8 cups of water, but spent a LOT of time running to the wc.... :-{)
    It rained after my run, so DH didn't run and I got to go to yoga!=75 min of activity PLUS walking the dog (which I don't usually count, but I did today!)

    And, in spite of grand temptation....Easter candy....in plain view I went to bed with calories left over!

    Wed: water.... check
    veg/fruit....check (I forgot how much I love my lunch salad)
    swam for 25, NTC for 30, walked the dog again...another 30
    under calories and I even got a treat today!

    Thanks for helping me refocus.

    I wanted to log in on Monday, but it's been a busy week.

    Please include my information:

    SW: 174
    Neck: 15 1/4"
    Waist: 39 1/2" (Wow! I have not measured my waist in a long time and this is surprising!)
    Hips: 41 3/4"
    Thighs: 24 3/4"

    It will be interesting to see just how much things change between now and July 4! 10 weeks and hopefully 10 pounds lighter. That would put me very close to my pre-, pre-, pre-, pre-pregnancy weight from 1993.

    Good luck everybody!

    Movement- 70 min gym- Strength training.

    I feel good. I have had to cut the cardio from my routine because of my knees. I don't feel like I'm losing. I am going to the gym and working out with my Son so something has to be happening right?
