Wonderful! Thanks for sharing and congratulations.

I agree with what others have said. Also know that as you are increasing your workout intensity so much, you are building muscle, so you may not see that on the scale til it levels out some. Definitely take measurements and take note of how you are fitting in your clothes. Eat more calories and eat back your exercise…

MFP tells you how many calories to eat based on how fast you want to lose the weight. I think you generally eat healthy; maybe try more fruits and veggies. And eat back your exercise calories. I find that sometimes I lose weight when I eat more (although not overboard).

Is this a board that everyone wants to keep doing, or should this week be the last week?

Well done cjordan! got my oils in today so that makes 4 or 7 days.

3 of 7 days on the oil. Missed today. Forgot to add when I ate dinner

Day 2: Oils done. 2 of 7 days. Drizzled 2 tsp olive oil on my veggies.

Healthy oils...Day 1 of 7 done!

Ok. My sweets status : Saturday, I had vanilla shake and choc chip cookie Today: vanilla ice cream cone

Enjoy the party Annette. I had my sweets today and enjoyed every bite!

Annette, good question! totally up to you! I love Fiber One Bars too...ran out and haven't been to the store to pick up more but i thought about the same question.

More protein and green leafy veggies. Less processed foods. Definitely not eating enough calories.

Had a temptation free day, thankfully. I'm "planning" which sweets will be worth my eating this week! Last week was almost a sweet treat every day. Have a great week Ladies! Thx for joining me in this challenge.

So today is day 1 and someone brings carrot cake to work...:ohwell: but I'm choosing to save my sweets day to later in the week. Have a great day Ladies!!!

Last day of the water challenge. What went well? Any challenges? For me, I struggled more on the weekend. Usually, I drink 2-3 cups of water before going to work in the morning, but on the weekend, I'm out of routine and not as focused on water. I made it but definitely more of a challenge.

Welcome Wayaluna! So glad to have such wonderful people join us! I look forward to getting to know you all.

Welcome Mikalyn! So glad to have you. Join in the water challenge; it's a challenge we can continue even when the next one starts! Regarding your suggestion for a challenge, that is a good idea. Keep a mental note of it b/c in a couple weeks, each person will have a week to choose a challenge for the entire group. Maybe we…

We have a 7-Day Challenge Group that has a new challenge every 7 days. If you're interested in joining, you can find it under "Groups", then search for 7 Day Challenges.

Water done!

Happy Saturday Ladies. A little slow with the water today, so I need to pick it up! Otherwise, I've been doing great w/ the water. Next week's challenge (starting Tuesday) will focus on sweets, so get ready!

Praying for you.

Diet soda may be 0 calories but it really isn't that good for you, especially because of the aspartame. Instead of 0 calories, think of eating some low cal fruits or veggies to help fill you up, or low cal popcorn, or drink lots of water.

Welcome Reese! Glad to have u!

Melanie, that's how I feel too! Drinking water all day and going to the bathroom frequently! Beth and Cindy, thanks for joining! We can't change everything at once (and stick with it!), but we can focus on one thing at a time and hopefully this challenge will help with that. Hopefully this group will provide support for…

Thanks for joining, Melanie! Got my water in today!

Glad to have you Ladies here! Let us know how well you're doing with the challenge or if any difficulties arise. I met the goal for yesterday!

Thanks for joining! I'm Brandy from Atlanta, GA. Im a physical therapist. Married. No kids. No pets. I found out about MFP through some friends on Weight Watchers and now I really like it!
