    I will take before pictures when I get home in about an hour, but for today I've had 10 glasses of water (80 oz) total!! I will probably have 2 more before bed.

    great music selection today and what a challenge. Sometimes I get frustrated because I feel like I am not doing all I can to reach my goal and there is nothing better to get you in a better frame of mind than upbeat music!! Thanks.

    I took my before pictures :( Can't wait to see a different me at the end of this challenge. Have been on track since Monday, drank all my water and continue to do so. I also have had no late snacking (so proud of myself) one been 3 days but never make it that long.

    WOW!!!! :happy: Awesome website, you did a great job! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I think this could be my first challenge that I finish. Very motivating.:drinker:

    Hope everyone has a good night and good day tomorrow :flowerforyou:

    Count me in! I've emailed my measurements as of the 16/5 and sent you my goal for week 5.
    What a great motivator!

    I've only been back in the game for a week, so I can't say I've really had any achievements to celebrate so far! I have been feeling very positive though, so that's a celebration in itself.

    do small goals - send me a goal weight for June 20th (5 weeks)...since we weign in each mon set yourself a goal for each week so you keep yourself in check on a weekly basis!

    I know I set my goal for the 5wks at 8lbs down. Its a pretty big goal. I leave for camping that day so I pray I will make it. I would be really really happy with even 5lbs. Nothing less. LOL

    Good luck ladies! We can do this! I wrote my goal on my frig so I can see it every time I get a snack or something to eat to remind myself!!!
