    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!)

    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. :)

    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 now :)

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

    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??

    Uggh... I need to step it up this weekend. The week started out pretty good for me, but today I went out to lunch and I am already waaay over my calories and of course I'm hungry now so I'll have to add some more calories to that. I guess I better try to get in a workout tonight to in order to try to balance that out! Hope everyone else is doing better than me at the moment!

    The chart looks great Nikki! I'm hoping the scale will be nice tomorrow. I've been at 137.4 for the past 3 days, but today I went WAY over on sodium. Hope it still isn't hanging around tomorrow.

    Ok so I put on AGAIN. I was on a hen weekend but a few of us went for a 3.5 mile run and we did a 2 hour dance class. Didn't counteract the vodka and sweets though :-(
    So here goes...

    05/31:

    Challenge one: I will do 10 cups which equates to about 2.5 litres of water. I will also drink an extra litre or so if I work out.
    Challenge two: now I know I can run I am going to do a 5k run (about 3.2 miles) three times this week on top of my regular routine.

    I did fairly with the challenges this week! I was able to make sure that my water intake was where it should be (between 8-16 glasses daily), the fruits and veggies were not an issue either. Where I struggled was making sure to do those 10 pushups ( I managed to add them twice) and with the late night snacking ( managed to not snack on 3 mights). Here's to another week!

    This next week I have taken on a few extra challenges for myself so I am hoping that next week I will show more results for the added work outs. I am also happy to see that I actually made progress this week and dropped a few pounds even if I didn't make my mid May goal weight.
