    Start weight 218 (Wedesday).

    Challenge Idea's:

    * Drink at least 5 cups of water per day (this will increase each week until we are at 8).

    * 1.5 hours of exercise this week (can be split up at 30 min per day, or whatever works for you).

    Post a message or something on here when you have completed each challenge!

    Yay! I love motivating each other. Everyone else, post what you think would be good too, these are just a few to get us started.

    Lets go fellow Canadians!! If any of you have read any of my other posts.. I have been here before and was only 9 lbs from my goal weight. then because of a knee injury I had to REALLY cut back on what I did.. and I kinda forgot about all this.:blushing: I had knee surgury again in November 08 and now I'm back at it full force!! Unfortunately I am now 12 lbs from my goal weight.
    Weigh in on Wednesdays is great!!!
    My starting weight is 137.
    Lets let everyone know where we are from in beautiful Canada!!
    I'm from Weyburn, Saskatachewan (transplanted from North Dakota and loving it, I've been a citizen for 5 years now!!):happy:

    GO TEAM CANADA... WE CAN DO IT!!!
