Didn't do so well today or yesterday. My butt is getting kicked by this challenge. I am probably drinking more than I did though, so I will take that.

A girl. She turned 6 weeks yesterday. They grow so fast!!

raphireed - My hope is to be at my goal weight before next pregnancy as well. Is there discussion of when you would like to be prego again? I'm hoping to start trying after my current LO is 1 yr old. gives me 10.6 months.

I failed yesterday. only about 5 glasses worth. :/ Oh well, I'm on track so far today. half way there.

It's good to break it up throughout the day. I think the experts would say it's better to have a larger breakfast, but i think if you are at least eating well throughout the day you at least wont binge at dinner time. I usually eat 3 main meals and 2-4 snacks throughout the day. Dinner usually winds up being my biggest…

I totally understand. I think that is an excellent way to gauge things. That is more important to me as well. Before being pregnant, I was in a size 12 for pants and shorts and size 10 for dresses. Would love to get back down to that. I know I can because I've lost 80lbs before. I just do the scale so I can see the small…

How did everyone else do?? I drank 6.5 - 16.9 oz water bottles today. So I succeeded wonderfully. Hoping I can keep the trend going. I know what it's like to forget your water bottle. I have done it several times myself. I'm getting better at it though.

Just so you all know that is equivalent to 12.5 - 8 oz glasses, 6 - 16.9 oz bottles, or 5 - 20 oz bottles.

Glad I could help. I think a challenge each week is a good idea.

Hope you feel better.

It's a new year and I am ready for a challenge to get myself back in gear. I'm already down about 60lbs. Hoping this Challenge will push me to get at least half way there if not more. Current weight: 178 lbs (as of 1/2/13) CGW: 165 lbs UGW: 155 lbs That puts me at a goal of 2-3lbs loss per week. We'll see if I can do it!…

Really bad last two weeks. Only workouts were walks at the mall and great america the last two weekends. Starting over in October.

Week 1 (September 1-7): 188 min Week 2 (September 8-14): 165 min Week 3 (September 15-21): 55 min . . . so far. I'm a bit behind this week. :( My back has been giving me some trouble.

New Month, Clean Slate! Start another 5 month challenge. :) I feel like I'm off to a good start. Lost 2 lbs overnight, although, I think it will make it harder to make my challenges this month.

A bit behind in my posting. Just catching up. Not sure if I'm going to make it this month. Trying to figure out how I can get another 350 minutes in. I only plan to do 30 minute workouts in the mornings this week with school starting. That leaves another 200 minutes to try to fit in elsewhere. Oh well, we shall see how…

I have a 40oz Nalgene water bottle. I like to save the cash where I can. I fill the water bottle up twice a day and drink it until it is all gone. And I try to consume it all before 6pm so I am not waking up in the middle of the night to use the restroom. I like to say don't just count your calories, make your calories…
