Challenges this week:
Part 1: Get all your water in every day... 8 glasses every day or more!
Part 2: Find your own personal goal this week for your activity level everyday, (ie. add an extra 10 minutes on the treadmill, an additional set in your weights routine, an extra block or stairs every day walking, 10 sit-ups or crunches... ) state your goal on here and try and follow through. Good luck and first chart will be up tomorrow night. Cut off for weigh-ins is tomorrow 10am pacific time.0 -
Sorry my post was a little late this week... my internet has been extremely frustrating and not working well.

I'm dying to get out of the 140's... it's so close! I hope that I can keep at it this week and reach that next week. I was slightly surprised that I lost this week, I felt like a was a bit of a slacker with the working out and I wasn't as good about my calorie intake as I should have been. Hopefully I'll keep it off and still have a good loss next week too!
My goal for this week is to do at least 25 crunches every day this week.0 -
My challenge goals:
water--okay, got it. I've been doing great the last few days. For whatever reason, I drink more if I have a straw. So I bought the starbucks frappuccino cup and I REALLY drink! Don't know why.
Fitness--well, seeing as I haven't worked out in the past 2 weeks, my goal is to simply workout again each day. Today went great.0 -
My goal this week is to play with my Cardio Strike Bag that my 8 year old thought I just had to have for Mothers Day! :laugh:
I will up on my water intake too...I barely get 5 in on most days...0 -

Worked out 5 times (up from normal 2), drank 8+ glasses of water a day, stayed within 100 of my calorie goal all week until Saturday. Went way over on Saturday, but got back on track Sunday.
I haven't done that for months, even before I started this new way of living in November. What I usually have trouble with...sleeping. I'll get 3 hours tonight, max.
My stretch goals this week--do those push-ups. Work out 5 times, plus 1/2 hour of walking each night. Sleep. And with that, good night.0 -
I can handle the water one! I love drinking water even though the last few days I have been a slacker in that area.
My personal goal is going to be to complete all of my fitness challenge work outs in a timely fashion and not skip days. This is for my 100 push up and 200 squat challenge. I would also like to push myself and try to get at least 3 runs in this week!0 -
Well the water part won't be a problem I can generally get in 10 glasses a day. For extra exercise I thought maybe I would walk up to the gym which is only 4 blocks away but with my schedule this week I don't know if I can do that it may end up I don't work out then because I don't have the time so instead I have decided to find 10 min of something extra to do during afternoon break maybe squats or push ups or run up and down the stairs a few times.0

I try to drink at least 16 cups of water a day, so that won't be a problem.
I was just doing P90X, but I started adding in some running last week and will continue to do that.0 -
Okay, here it goes:
Challenge #1: Water: should not be an issue. I usually drink 12+ a day.
Challenge #2: I'd like to continue to "try" and remember to add the 10 pushups to my weight routine...
Challenge #3: Probably the most difficult one...no late night eating. I am going to allow myself my cup of tea at around 8ish...however no "chewing" allowed! ( I might be crazy, but it is definitely needed!)0 -

Its so funny bc my sister got one of those cups from starbucks and said the same thing... She keeps telling me to get one... Think I am going to have to now0 -

It really does work! As silly as it sounds, but for whatever reason, it just makes it easier.0 -

Oh my goodness--I just did level 2 of the Shred it with Weights kettlebells workout from jillian michaels. Wow. Crazy. Love it.
I'm actually waiting for my copy of the Ripped in 30 video to come any day now. I really love her short workouts, and while I truly love the kettlebells one, it's hard to stay consistent with because I can't do it while my little girls are awake. My home is way too small to be swinging some 15 pound weight around with little kids at my feet. I can use regular weights with them around me.
I haven't done the kettlebells workout in a long time due to that reason, but I was fortunate today to have them both taking a nap at the same time! A rare treat. So rather than taking my own nap, which of course was extremely tempting, I worked out instead. Go me.
Anyways, that's my "new" thing this week.
How are the rest of ya'all doing??0
