    hello all,

    I am in for the challege! my normal water intake is usually 8-10 cups a day so I am shooting for 12! Additionally, I don't know if yall will think this is cheating BUT>>> my boys got Dance Central 2 and Kinect sports 2 for Christmas. So I am going to do an extra 15-20 mins with them each day.

    My problem is that my weigh in day is on Tues. I can give you that weight on Friday if thats cool. Last weigh in: 208 Goals weight: 165ish.

    So excited!

    Meg

    and for kinect zumba is so much fun
    invite friends or family over this way you dont quit when exhausted or feeling the burn

    and water lol yes yes you get bloated drinking so much a day
    but when you work out you feel the difference .

    Starting: Jan 2
    Weight: I'll update tonight :)
    Water: aiming for 12cups a day
    Workouts: looking for a 5-10 up on most exercises.

    This should be pretty fun :) I'll have to give my weight after tonight as I haven't been to the gym since Thurs and I don't have a scale at home yet (in the process of getting one - gotta love gift cards!) :)

    Good Luck Everyone! :)

    I'm in. Started the 2012 off at 200.6. For every can of pop I drink I will replace it with 2 glasses of water. (need to drink more water and less pop..it's diet, but still pop). Just started the Wii Fit Plus.... will do 40 mins instead of 30.

    My challenge is to actually log my water - I know I drink a lot of water but I have started to log it today, see how long I last!

    Also, I upped my squat weight in pump today and did the middle option on the lunge track - slowly but surely the legs are on the road to recovery. I want to try and do a fitball or pilates class at least once a week from now on thanks to a recommendation of a friend who is an exercise physiologist. Wish me luck!

    this is an awesome goal and soda def should replace with water or what i did to stop drinking soda was getting the flavored sparkling water , soda is so horrible i realized when i found a website a long time ago and it was plastic water bottle vs soda , and my friend a cop in training told me they used soda to clean blood bleh i hardly ever drink it ,, ginger ale here and there for cramps but thats it lol and well 40 mins yes or even 5 mins extra a couple days to help you smooth into 40 ya know ...

    I really like the idea of changing my ticker to a smaller weight. At least until I get past my half way mark!! My kids can keep me busy with the kinect.

    Hello. Yes I try the water vs. soda ratio as well. It really does work. It helps you overcome the sweet and carb cravings.;-)
