    I have been keeping track on paper...so here are my final results:

    Water: 67 glasses (better than I would have done without the challenge)
    5 f/v: 27 out of 35. (this is actually an improvement for me. Like so many of you I found this to be really hard.)
    Logged: 5 out of 7 days. (this is bad for me!):blushing:
    Pushups: 105/ 210. (No excuses but this week has been unusually taxing... steam-cleaned carpets in entire house and helping my grandmother move...so my arms did get a great work out this week.)

    Today, the scales say I am down a teensy bit but they didn't say that yesterday...so it really doesn't count. I am a daily weigh in person and I need to see at least 3 days in a row to count it as a loss.

    First I want to say, GO ORANGE!! :love: YOu ladies have done a fantastic job! Miriam (Mariababe...do I have you real name right?), I love the new picture! You look fantastic! Sarah, congrats on losing!!! At least one of us is!:laugh: Nat, way to go on the NSV. I wondered that as well over the past couple of weeks if maybe the scale isn't budging but other good things are happening. I mean, come on! How can a person be as dedicated as you have been and not see good things happening!!!:drinker: :drinker:
    Angie, what a great week! You really did a bang up job!!!!

    Laura, and Keerti, you are amazing!!! Great way to stick with this challenge!!:smokin:

    KaeChelle/Karen and NeCamper/Pat, you should be so proud of yourselves!!!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Cuddles/Joyce, I am so glad the vacation was a success! Kudos for only gaining a pound!!!:happy:

    SAS/Anita...hang in there girl!!!


    Thank you Tausha for this weeks goals! All attainable with just a touch of discipline!

    Well, I'm just going to put it all out there. I was 202 when returning from vacay (ugh!). I was 199 as of yesterday. This morning.....202!!!!!!!!! Ugh, my weight fluctuates so much. But I'm going to go ahead and record it now as 202 and work from there. Soon I will be in Onederland again! Thanks for all the support from this thread!

    Way to go everyone on doing your best to accomplish the goals!

    Weighing in......137.2!!!!!! Yippee!!! The scale finally moved in the right direction. I think really concentrating on my sodium this past week helped immensely! O.K., back to normal here.

    I'm just on quickly to update, I'm hoping tomorrow I'll be able to check everyones updates & victories.

    I got the pushups, fruit/veggies, water & logging everyday without a problem except for last Saturday - it was my rest day & I got the logging & water but no exercise & not enough fruit veggies.

    I did not lose any weight :frown: However... I had a bit of an NSV tonight. I was standing in the kitchen waiting for my dinner & put my hands on my waist, just under my rib cage and... It was SOLID! The muscles were tensed, solid, formed - front, back & side!!! Holy Cow!! I don't really worry about the scale but I was getting a little concerned that I was working so hard, being so conciencous about my eating & working out & nothing was moving. But it has - I'm back to where I was a bit over a year ago where I was burning fat & building muscle and the "weight" was balancing out. I wasn't "losing" according to the scale, but I was getting more solid & I seem to be going back to that direction.
    So, as long as the muscle is outweighing the fat - I'm good with it :tongue:


    NAT!! That's so awesome! You are ALWAYS rock solid to me! You are like my little muscular hero! I look at your pics often and think about how I can't wait to get there. (don't take that weird!) haha..

    You are doing AMAZING in this challenge and I'm so proud to have you as one of my MFP's for a long time!

    Update from 7/21..sorry, it was a crazy night last night, didn't even have a chance to do a quick update. (fiancee likes to go on more then i do anyways, so it can be fairly diffacault sometimes)

    Weight loss update: I'm down to 172.6. A 2.4 loss!! Yay me! Sometimes I get frusterated with those 1lb losses because I do usually have good weigh ins like this if I do well.

    Calorie goals for the week- 3500
    9/15- 1006
    9/16- 1338
    9/17- 1032
    9/18- 825
    9/19- 1378
    9/20- 944
    9/21- 624
    Totals: 7147

    Water Goal- 75c
    9/15- 10c
    9/16- 11c
    9/17- 14c
    9/18- 9c
    9/19- 12c
    9/20- 9c
    9/21- 14
    Totals: 79c

    ******
    Additional challenges
    Pushup 80/210
    Fruits/Veggies (5 servings) 20/35
    Logging all food 7/7

    I have made my calorie and water goals, not so much on the push-ups anyway. I did better then I normally would on veggies, usually 1-2 servings a day. I don't always have veggies or fruits on hand, so I'm sorry..when they are available at food drives, or our community kitchen where I have lunch, sometimes they have tomatoes and other stuff on hand, and try to grab when I have a chance. :bigsmile:

    Challenge this week:

    Sept 15 - (no pushups - saw challenge too late), 5 cups of water, 5 f/v, logged all of my food & exersize.
    Sept 16 - 30 pushups, 11 cups of water, 5 f/v, logged all of my food & exersize.
    Sept 17 - oops, totally forgot about the pushups, 6 cups of water, 5 f/v, logged all of my food & exersize.
    Sept 18 - Poor little dum dum - I forgot the pushups again, 6 cups of water, 5 f/v, logged all of my food & exersize
    Sept 19 - I will remember, I will remember, I will remember.....
    Sept 20 - 30 pushups, 6 cups of water, 5 f/v, logged all food & exersize
    Sept 21 - nope


    Hey Team Red - I'm so sorry I didn't meet all of my goals this week. My fiancee is studying to be a chef and last night was the "Feastival of Chefs" - Needless to say I didn't keep track - I just enjoyed. My week was a bit crazy so I have no weight loss to report this week.

    Oh, and can someone fix my stats - I don't know if you're doing it Tausha or if Kaechelle is but the first week I started at 188.6, lost 2.8 lbs at the end of that week then putting me at 185.8, then the second week I lost 3.4 lbs putting me at 182.4 lbs - so in total for the two weeks I lost 6.2 lbs!

    Thanks for fixing that for me!
