WATER CHALLENGE
Friday 11/30/2018
32 ounces of plain water
๏10 ounces Tishโs Super Charged Parsley Lemon Water
24 ounces Black Coffee
10 ounces Bulletproof coffee with coconut oil, butter and salted caramel skinny syrup
11 ounces of chocolate protein smoothie made with Slimfast protein powder, Six Stars protein mix, 1 tsp of benefiber and 10 ounces of unsweetened Almond Milk.
Total Liquids. 87 oz.
Clearly I need more straight water. They say that caffeine is dehydrating. I drink a lot of it in the form of mainly coffees. That is okay as long as I get my water drinks in. Clearly I need to work on this!
***********************************************************************************
Saturday 12/01/2018
50 ounces of plain water
30 ounces of black coffee
Total Liquids 80 oz.
I managed to up the plain water during all of my household chaos (new wall-to-wall carpet going in every room]. However, my overall liquids were down because I didnโt drink any of the special drinks I usually try to incorporate.

Saturday: 3 cups of water... it's so low because I snuck in a 7 hour nap! Craziness, because I slept for 8 hrs Friday night into Saturday which is already 2 hrs longer than usual. I have been getting 5 cups a day.
H2O: 24oz
Zzz: 15 hrs!!!1 -
I'm back and attentive after a birthday party project, party setup and visit with the Grands! Tired though. Catch up reading tonight.1

*I put my goals low because I want to reach them... but I think I put them too low, lol. I'd be worried about how much I'm losing in such short time if I weren't being supervised by doc. I'm supposed to drop 30% by next appointment, which is Dec 19th and 30% would be 290 at weigh-in. I'm roughly 17 lbs away and have 16 days to do it. Fingers crossed.
**Today's weight puts me exactly 37 lbs lost since my highest weight back in April 2016.

@sakke77, Welcome to the challenge Sakke!
@deepwoodslady, I really like the water info graphic that you posted. Very interesting the percentage of water the lymphatic system uses! I have a challenge already set for the end of December concerning the lymphatic system.
@Cloverdoll, You're doing very well with the sleep challenge and your water intake has improved!
I had a good weekend, but rough carb wise, ending with over a 3lb gain of fluid. That's gotta go!1 -

Away from home for my DGSโs 1st birthday. I do not drink our well water in our area and forgot to take any bottled. I stuck to coffee most of the day and evening (since itโs boiled/heated I trust it more). I will be home today working and will be more able to meet the challenge of drinking more water.

@tiabirdie56 I am very excited about a lymphatic system challenge. I won't ask what it is, it will give me something to look forward to, like a Christmas Present! As you know, I'm in remission for cancer, so this is especially intriguing, yet important to us all. I can't wait!1
-
@deepwoodslady, I'm excited about it as well! There is so much more known about the lymphatic system now. And sidenote: Caffeine has been found to not be as dehydrating as once thought, although it is a mild diuretic. Count coffee as 2/3 fluid. I never believed that coffee was dehydrating, it's mostly water! I just have a glass of water between cups of coffee if possible.0

I'm posting even though I feel a bit embarrassed. I am trying to work on convincing myself it's ok to eat more, and I'm seeing the doctor on Thursday. 1.6 kg from normal weight BMI, so I can no longer say it's because I've got a lot to lose. I hope this post doesn't annoy anyone - sincere apologies if it does and let me know. I'll stop posting in that case.
(I've changed the date format because it was confusing me as the order is different in NZ.)3 -
@tiabirdie56 Great to know on the coffee since I do drink quite a bit of it in the morning and early afternoon. I will knock 1/3 off each cup's count before documenting!1

My name is Tish
Challenge Starting Weight ~ 177.2
Challenge Goal Weight ~167 - 1/2 pound per week
November 20, 2018 ~ 177.2 - 42 lbs left to reach my ultimate goal. It was 40 lbs on Nov. 9th when 175 appeared, then was rudely replaced by 177. Lol. This number loves me.
11/27 ~ 178.8 - Been doing everything I should not the last 5 days; eating late in the day (8pm) eating bread, no electrolytes. One last croissant beckoning me today๐ and hopefully
it's over.
11/30 - 178.2 - Lol. Looks like I lost weight. Not. I prefer Wednesday's weight, 174.8๐ but obviously not that much since I ate pretzels last night. Keto carb havoc!
December 4 - ๐ 178.8 - That's rough , but better than yesterday. I think I should post daily weights for December.

I find it sadly ironic that the focus of the week was water and my water intake was AWFUL this week. I think that might be the reason for my sad progress. I think Iโm holding onto a bunch of water. I might get myself a new water bottle to inspire me to drink more. Does anyone else work like that? I love getting new ones
