    I guess i forgot to send out a mini challenge for this week. H@) always stays with you 64 oz. per day. On the Jumping Jacks you can continue to add 5 or start from the beginning with 25 adding 5 each day. Or continue adding 5 for the remainder of the month. The challenge this week is if you walk for 25 minutes try running for 5 of those minutes. It does not have to be 5 consecutive minutes but try to get 5 minutes in. ok lets get after it. everyone should be walking if your not please start and add the challange in.

    That's a lot of water!!!! Does drinking that much water really boost your weight loss?

    OHHHH NOOOO!!!!! What am I doing? I am falling off the banwagon... I really can't help it. This past 2 weeks it has been nothing but BBQ after BBQ and now I am going out to dinner with friends of ours to a place in Cape May Pt. who has THE BEST Crabcake sandwiches in the world!!! Also the best french fries with crab meat and bacon and cheese on them. What am I going to do? I have been looking forward to this sandwhich all summer long and I can't resist it. I don't know how many calories this will be, but I have not lost anything in the past 2 weeks. Haven't gained any either... I am stuck at 154.0... EEK!

    I have no scientific evidence. I just know when I boosted my water intake from around 80 oz to above 100 oz I began to lose 3+ lbs a week instead of 2 lbs. I know that even though my water is high this week I will not have that loss, I am fighting mother nature and she always wins!

    Good team well if you don't want to hear me ***** and complain stop reading now. i am about to RANT!!!! i am frustrated as you may know my goal was to ride my bike to work every day this week to work. 5 miles one way, 10 miles per day 50 miles for the week. Well 3 ½ days into it with 1 ½ days to go and I have gained .2 pounds!!!! WFT is going on I may be losing inches but I have not checked but I assumed that I would lose not gain. Monday and Tuesday I did what I could to get in at least 1200 calories (burning 1000 riding) in for the day but still no weight loss. So last night I was Way under and fully expected to see a loss how deflating to see the scale go up .2 pounds. I would probably pull my hair out but I cut it all off to stay cool in this Texas Heat. It just makes me want to say the hell with riding the bike everyday thinking is it really worth it???? The ride is getting easier and I am getting faster at getting to work. Ok done with my rant hope everyone has a great day.

    It's ok to rant, and it is very frustrating, but I would say that you are probably creating a crazy amount of quad muscles riding that bike 10 miles each day. As your quads are one of the largest muscles in your body, I'm not surprised that you would gain .2 pounds OF MUSCLE for that amount of work. The great thing about it though is the amount of fat those muscles will help burn as you keep it up. It may also be that you need to increase your calories a little more to counteract the burn.

    Either way, what you're doing is amazing!!!

    Can I just say that I don't remember doing a jumping jack since high school, and that they are kicking my a**!! I am only on 55 a day because I started so late, but I constantly feel like I am trying to catch up because I have never gotten them all done since day 2. This morning I did 80 and am finally caught up. I feel amazing for having done those, so I know I have no excuses for the rest of these days until I actually get to 80, but DAYUM was it hard!!!

    I may not lose any pounds, but I am gaining stamina out the wazoo...thank you for this challenge!!!

    So around May of last year I started going to a zumba class with my mom and lost about 2 or 3 inches on my waist then she got sick and stopped going so I stopped going to. I bought the video game for the x box and I have to say i have lost so much stanima since I stopped going to the classes! The routines are 20 mins long on the game and it is so hard to finish them! I haven't noticed any weight loss this month but the holiday really messesd me up and my anniversary was this month also so I just hope I haven't gained! I don't have a scale so I need to go somewhere and weigh for the way in tomorrow. :/ wish me luck!
