All the Butterballs are doing so well! I took a quick peek this AM at everyone, and while I don't have enough time to really congratulate each of you just know that I think you are all doing fantastic. We may not always hit all the challenges head on, but the fact that we're at least trying is a testament to our dedication & commitment to succeed. After all, that's what the challenge is for :happy:

So far, I am exceeding the sit-ups challenge: But that's due to timing - it was our first Ab class so timing was PERFECT for the challenge :happy:
Thursday 9-22 - Crunch Time: 48 in the AM, lost count of our Ab routine with the Trainer at the gym, but I know I did at least 150
Water - over 20 cups
Cal-Burn - 925

Friday 9-23 - Crunch Time: lost count on my second routine due to standing/dancing crunches, but around 40 total
Cal-Burn - 847 (logging early since I wont get a PM burn tonight: it's Baby Sis's B-Day dinner at Mums even tho her B-Day was last week same day as Miriams, she was New Orleans to celebrate :drinker: )
Water - at 7 cups so far this AM, probably total out around 20 for the day.

And, I'm afraid to say anything since normally I don't log my weight until it holds the same for at least a week straight, but the scale was showing a 2lb loss this AM... Hopefully it will hold or even lower for next weeks official weigh-in!!

Update: Haven't done a darn thing except take care of my husband! That should count for something!

Team Orange, I love the extra challenge and Nat you can call me out by name-sodium is my nemesis (I think he knows the cookie monster!). I was over on sodium yesterday because I had sushi for lunch (it's my once a week treat!) and it is sooooo high in sodium! But, I will be much better today, just got to figure out what we're having for Friday night fun food that will be low. And we are going to some people's house for dinner tomorrow night. Just met them and have no idea how she cooks or what we'll be having. I always enjoy the social aspect but get really nervous about the food uncertainty.

I'm reading how everybody is doing and I'm so impressed! The dedication you all are showing and the hard work is really paying off. Happy Friday folks!

So weighing in today morning for last week challenge. I weighed 156.4 on Tuesday but today I was up .4 pounds and weigh in at 156.8. Not bad considering two bad days food wise I had.
