    So much water! That is by far the hardest challenge you can give me. Tell me to do x amount of an exercise or x amount of minutes, fine, but water! I have a hard time drinking unless I am eating something, but I will try!!

    I agree it is so much water! That's why it's a challenge! ;)

    I knew I would never be able to drink 12 and a half cups of water like girlofsun26 so I made a more realistic goal for myself: up my 6 glasses of water (which is tough enough for me) to 8 glasses of water. I am currenlty working on glass 6 right now.

    mrtentaclenun just try to up your amount a cup or 2 from your normal amount. YOU CAN DO IT!

    We are for sure going to have to take first place next week as the first week we came in fourth (AKA last!). The second week we moved up 1 spot to third place. This week we moved up 1 more spot to second place. Soooo, next week we move up 1 more spot to first place! It's as easy as that! ;)

    Now I must go look at the results! Thanks for posting!

    P.S. Just finished glass number 6 of water which is my regular goal. I have 2 more to drink to meet today''s challenge.

    Good Job Everyone!!! Ok 102 ounces of water Drank. I think I may have burned 500 calories going to and from the restroom. :-) Such a good thing having Daily Challenges really helps push me. :bigsmile:

    Thanks for taking the water challenge. You did awesome!

    Even with my 8 glasses of water my bladder was harrassing me a lot! ;) I can't imagine drinking 12 and a half cups!
    I did a better job drinking my water earlier in the evening tonight as last night I was drinking my 6th glass around 11pm which did not bode well for sleeping as I had to get up a couple times during sleeping hours!

    Glad you like the daily challenges.
    They help keep me motivated and challenged of course! :)

    I met all 3 of my goals today! :)

    Stayed under my calories.
    Exercised 30+ minutes.
    Drank 6+ glasses of water.

    Also met our challenge of the day: Drank 8 glasses of water!

    Also met my bonus of the day: Ate WAY less sugar! :) Yesterday I was over my sugar by 58 and today I am only over by 1!

    Monday's goal/challenge was 30 minutes of exercise
    (and I also worked to stay under my calories and eat less than 1500 calories) .

    Tuesday's goal/challenge was to increase water intake.

    Wednesday's goal then should have something to do with our food intake soooo this time I will give you more freedom.
    Pick 1 thing to improve in your food diary. Make it specific to your "trouble" area so it will be a challenge.
    For example:
    -lower your sugar intake
    -lower your carbs
    -lower your fat
    -stay under your calories by a good amount
    -stay under your calories without having to exercise

    I will work on keeping my sugar low for the 2nd day in a row which won't be easy as one day was tough enough!
    I will also work on having a decent amount of calories left over as opposed to the bare minimum.
    Tomorrow will for sure be a challenge in both of these areas as I am in charge of bringing snack to my small group Bible Study!

    Hey team....finally, I found the current thread, lol, I was sooo confused before. Anyways, even without knowing it, I did great with Tuesday's water challenge. I drank 12 glasses, and actually try to do that everyday. It helps for me to have my water jugs, and I just sip away all day.

    Regarding Wednesday's challenge, my goal is keep under my sugar target. Sugar isn't my friend, yet always finds a way to sneak into my life....so I'm going for day number two of being under (yay me, I was under today for the first time! :bigsmile: ) Now I just need to repeat that again:grumble: . Also, I want to do at least an hour of Zumba tomorrow and burn a minimum of 400 calories. Sooo, good luck to you all.

    For Today(Wednesday) I am going to do water again. It seems to be a big struggle for me so I want to try for 100 ounces or more of water today.

    Good job, Megan!

    Yesterday I went over my calories by 14! So close! I even went out to dinner and a movie and didn't exercise, so I feel ok w/ coming that close to my calorie goal.

    Today I exercised, so I'm planning on drinking TONS of water and staying around my normal calorie goal and not using my extra exercise ones.

    I hope everyone has a great weekend! And please, if you try a new recipe or food that is really good, share it with us! I can use all the help I can get! :flowerforyou:

    I see that our thread has been quiet this week.

    Since I have most of our team members on my friends' list, I am not going to write a lot on our thread right now as you can read the many posts I wrote on my wall/profile today.

    I need your help, "evil" watching eyes, and butt kicking for the next 3 days.

    I also posted a daily challenge on my wall.

    Sorry I have been absent this week. The severe weather in our area has been very stressful. Our power is out AGAIN. So hopefully I lose SOMETHING besides my power and patience this week :)

    WAY TO GO TEAM VILLAIN! We went from 4th to 3rd to 2nd to 1st to 3rd back to 1st!

    Thanks justcallme jenny for losing so much weight last week for Team Villain!

    Also awesome that even though 2 team members didn't send in their weight and we got 2 penalties we still managed to lose enough weight to come in first!

    Let's work to maintain first place next week and remind and encourage everyone to weigh in so we don't have any penailites next week.

    I haven't been posting on this thread anymore as I think I have almost all of our team members on my friends list so they can see anything I post about my daily progress, weekly progress, cries for help, cries for accountability, and any challenges I post.
