Can someone remind me what the formula for calculating the amount of water we need to drink?0

@dawnsch1995 you're supposed to drink your weight in ounces. So if you weigh 150 - 150 ounces which means almost 19 cups of waterdawnsch1995 wrote: »Can someone remind me what the formula for calculating the amount of water we need to drink?

I'm feeling pretty frustrated right now. I recently found out that my suspicions were correct and that I have some health issues that are making it hard for me to lose weight. In fact I have gained weight recently instead of losing

Yes, and I'm anemic, which is causing me to have extreme fatigue. I could literally sleep for days and still be exhausted.

Oh no!! I'm so sorry!! But don't let it get you down, I'm sure there's something your doctor can do to help the situation. Don't take that diagnoses as this journey being a failure. Pick pick your head up, maybe do some of your own research and keep rollin! We're all here for support.

Oops! Haha yea. I'm a crazy water drinker so I thought it was total weight0 -
Went out dancing last night with my girlfriends!! What a fun night and a great way to add steps to my Fitbit and burn calories!! Happy weekend everyone!!0

Happy Weekend back at ya!
Unfortunately in order to get me to dance there needs to be a fair amount of rum or whiskey involved, which sort of cancels out all the calories I would burn. Although someone did point out that at least I don't add any extra calories to the whiskey - just a few ice cubes.

My first week of getting all my points. Yay. I was going to say forget it and not do the kettle workout, but I pushed through it. Very happy with myself.0
-
Me too!! Got all my points this week!! Yay! Week 6 will be good I love yoga but don't take the time to do it...this week I will get back to it!0

Well done everyone!! We smashed it as a team everyone came together doing their best last week...... Let's continue with this attitude this week
Fantastic progress and completing all points Yay! TaraDanielle40 and dawnsch19950 -
OMG haha sorry to everyone using their computer! That picture I posted the other day shows up small on my phone!!
Looks like we're heading to India! 3904 miles, assuming we still have everyone that's 279 minutes/person. I'll be checking in with the ones with nothing logged today, hopefully we don't lose more people!
Roadblock 1 - Yoga for 25 points
Roadblock 2 - Meditation video before you go to sleep, just needs to be done once for 25 points.
Nutritional Challenge - try a new spice. There will be a thread on the main page to tell everyone what you used and how you used it
Accountability challenge - either update your progress photos or check and see how you've improved on the pre-assessment for 10 points. I just did my progress photos so I'm going to give myself points for that one and also make sure I update my assessment!0 -
I haven't done photos, and the only thing I filled in on the preassessment was my best mile time. If I were to dig up photos, do they go on my home page or do I post them somewhere else?0
-
You don't have to share them if you don't want to @celtikgirl ! Just for you to see how your body has changed. I always recommend doing them, shows changes when the dumb scale doesnt!0
-
I don't mind sharing them, I just wanted to make sure I did whatever I needed to do to meet the challenge.0
-
Awesome @celtikgirl I'll start a thread on the groups home page, we can post here as well!!0
-
I'm going to post my overall progress photos from the beginning of my journey - not just from this challenge group because I'm waiting until the end of it to compare it to my beginning ones!
This is Summer 2013 Ashley before she realized her weight was becoming an issue - even after seeing this photo, remained in denial. No clue what I weighed.
Here's the first progress photo, from February 2014 at 169.2 pounds
And more recently at 149.4 pounds
Certainly a much happier version of myself!
Still have a ways to go, but I'm on the right track! And I've got these challenges and @Melodieccurn to thank for keeping me accountable!!2 -
Just posted mine in the thread!0
