    My name is Theresa. I love these challenges. I have lost 93 pounds and am trying to lose the last 17 of my goal by my 40th birthday March 22nd. These challenges help push me...I definitely couldn't do it alone. Here are my stats so far for the week...

    Week 1: Jan 8-14

    Run/walk 8/10-13 miles
    100/75 crunches/sit ups (any kind)
    150/50 push-ups (you may use your knees for all of them)
    0/1 day of consuming ALL your calories (no more than 10 remaining)
    3/2 days of drinking ALL your water (that’s 64oz a day!)

    3/3 days of absolutely no elevators. Take the stairs!
    15/15 minutes on the exercise machine of your choice (treadmills are excluded, of course!) If you don’t have access to a gym, then do 15 minutes of any exercise program (tv or dvd).
    0/4 days of 100% tracking.

    I really need to work on the 100% tracking and eating all your calories. I am waiting for my HRM so I can get a better reading on the calories I burn...should be here the end of this week or beginning of next.

    How do you ladies manage to eat all of your cals without having any more than ten leftover, without going over your cals? I tried today and I think I still have almost 60 leftover.

    I love candy so I'm a big fan of the mini bars. A mini milky way is only 40! It's a nice treat after dinner :)

    As for last night, here's some ideas of what I would've done with 60 cals:
    1 serving of baby carrots (35cals)
    1/2 a cup of skim milk (45cals)
    1/2 of any 100cal bars (50cals)
    1/2 Tbps of PB (50cals)
