    I almost got 7 glasses in, can't believe I didn't finish all! I'm going to drink over for the next few days, and really buckle down. I always drink more when I'm active, and my back was killing me so I just sat around all day :( Better today!

    I don't know if I posted my starting weight or not but it is 226.2.

    I drank 64 ounces of water yesterday.

    Yesterday went good. I drank 13 glasses of water/ approx four 32-oz water bottles. That would be 128 oz?
    I already made today's goal too :)

    Wow, you're my hero. I barely got in 8 glasses yesterday. I let myself get busy and distracted and forget. Then it's like, EEEK I need more water.

    Working on #4 now.

    Aw thanks :). I have found that drinking water out of a bottle with a straw makes it so much easier. I have come to the point where I just subconsciously just drink water constantly. Maybe try the water bottle idea? Good luck with everything! You can do it :)!

    Finished up week 5 of c25k today!
    I've done well with drinking water, but it has been a challenge this week due to tooth sensitivity. (Thanks for the straw idea!) Gearing up at the grocery store tonight to eat as clean as can next week!

    Yes, I do have a water bottle and that has helped me a lot. I drink way more water than I used to. Some days I just drink, drink, drink, and others I forget to. Usually those are the days I have a ton of work and the bottle gets moved out of the way. It's a work in progress. LOL!

    I have a separate bottle at home that I keep by my chair and I can refill that, too. So somedays it's just a matter of remembering to do it. I've stopped drinking soda's all the time and have replaced that with water, so all in all I'm much better at it than I was before.

    I missed one day last week.

    I also ate a few 'healthy' chips today, forgetting that this starts week 2. I'll do better. I do have a thing for. Lara bars, though. What do you guys think of those during this week? Nix them?

    Thanks for the great challenge, Michelle!

    I surprised myself by doing horribly on the eat clean week. I figured out the culprit, though. :grumble:
    Here's to another loss next week!
