    waters in
    calories logged (and under)
    challenge completed
    1.5 miles towards 7 miles pledged ( I can make this 10 if you need more miles pledged)

    Recipe below. I have not made it myself yet, but my friend did and brought into work, it was delcious!

    Ingredients
    ■2 cloves Garlic, Minced
    ■1/2 whole Red Onion, Diced
    ■1 whole Large Cucumber, Diced
    ■5 whole Roma Tomatoes, Diced
    ■1 whole Zucchini, Diced
    ■2 stalks Celery, Diced
    ■1 dash Salt To Taste
    ■1/4 gallon Tomato Juice
    ■1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    ■1/8 cup Red Wine Vinegar
    ■2 Tablespoons White Sugar
    ■6 dashes Tabasco
    ■1 dash Black Pepper To Taste
    Preparation Instructions
    In the bowl of a food processor or in a blender, combine the minced garlic with half the red onion, half the cucumber, half the tomato, half the zucchini, half the celery, half the tomato juice, olive oil, red wine vinegar, sugar, Tabasco, and a dash of salt.

    Pulse until all ingredients are blended well; mixture will have a nice speckled, colorful texture.

    Pour into a large bowl and add the rest of the tomato juice, and half of the remaining onion, cucumber, tomato, zucchini, and celery. (Reserve the rest of the diced vegetables for garnish.)

    Stir mixture together and check seasonings, adding salt if needed. Chill soup for at least a couple of hours; soup needs to be very cold!

    Remove the soup from the fridge and stir. Check seasonings one last time. Ladle into a bowl and garnish with remaining diced vegetables, a sliver of fresh avocado, sour cream, and cilantro. Finally, place a grilled shrimp on the top and serve with grilled slices of bread.

    This is a to-die-for summer dinner.
    Makes 8 100 calorie servings.

    I'll pledge 5 miles :)

    Sorry I disappeared for a few days -- I was travelling back home! But it seems today I am on track for calories and water, and I'll be heading off to do the challenge in a bit! Will also weigh myself after dinner...

    Oh, I have a small suggestion... next to each of the challenges, can you also include a suggestion of how to log them in our exercise diary? It would be super helpful!

    Yeah, I was bummed MFP didn't have squat kicks, I just logged it as squats for now. Didn't log any of last weeks challenges, didn't think of it.
