The easiest way to find it is under "community" there is a link "my topics". Then click on the Challengers link. Once we decide on a group name it will change, as there will also be new threads every week. But, once a new thread is started, i will always post the name of it in the previous thread. It's no fun losing people…

Sounds like you are great with your water! I love the crystal light on the go packs as well! I really like the name, "The Movers & The Shakers" :smile: Anyone else have any ideas or does this name sound great to you as well? :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

So, I am almost done work, and I have half my water in :smile: I am so happy! I do always drink water at work, but barely ever this much! So, I am really determined to stay on top of this challenge! Good luck to everyone! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

Yes, I was thinking the same thing! I just came up with challengers off the top of my head, but if anyone has any ideas for a group name, please let me know! Every week we will start a new thread and it would be great to be easy to find...

Ok, so official challenge: WEEK 1 - DRINK AT LEAST 8 CUPS OF WATER A DAY! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: Next Monday will be a fitness challenge....

Yikes! lol I know what you mean.. I kinda ran into that same problem Saturday night :laugh: :drinker: :blushing:

That's so sweet! Congratulations and Happy Anniversary!!!! :love:

If you would prefer exercise, we can do that!

I was thinking that since this is the first week, we just do something basic. Drink all of your water everyday! I know that it sounds super simple, but it's not always easy to make sure you get it all! This sound good with everyone? :flowerforyou: :smile: :drinker:

How was everyone's weekend? Mine was pretty good. Binged a bit, but back on track again today. LOL, this is turning into my favorite saying... I am going to hate myself on weigh in day! LOL :flowerforyou: :smile: :drinker:

Yes, I was thinking we could all take turns or throw out suggestions each week. The big thing is that we ALL know what the challenge is for the week. I have noticed in some boards it can get confusing. Does anyone have a preference of whether it be a fitness challenge or food challenge this week? I know that we are already…

Hello! I didn't have too bad of a weekend for eating, but it certainly wasn't my best! I did get for my run on Fri and Sun, and a walk on Sat, so at least I did some exercise! :smile: Hopefully this Wednesday i will have lost something! Happy Monday everyone! :drinker:

Nova Scotian too! :smile: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

I have never tried protein powder, but I have wondered about it... What is it like? Do you replace a meal with it? And, is it mixed with water? Thanks! :smile:

Thank you! I hope you have a great weekend as well :flowerforyou: I am going to try more walking this weekend when my mind needs a break

Thanks so much for your concern. I am doing alright. Sometimes, these are the things I have a hard time dealing with. There were 2 deaths, but I could only handle one funeral. And they were both young lives (18 and 22) so that makes it harder. (I am 26) But, I must go on. I thought that I was back on track, however I just…

Back on track today. Had to go to a really hard funeral yesterday afternoon :cry: so, I found myself doing some emotional eating last night. Not much I can do about it now, except be back on track this morning. Waiting for the sun to come out from behind the clouds so it can be a beautiful Friday! :flowerforyou: Have a…

Weighed in in the last thread. Just bumping so that I can stay up to date... :smile: :flowerforyou: :smile: :drinker:

My weight didn't change this week :grumble: Oh well, at least I didn't gain. I am happy for myself for that. As for the challenges... I wasn't exactly sure what one we were doing, but my week went as follows: WORKOUT DVD - I ended up making sure I exercised, at least 45 mins a day, but it was outside. I have a hard time…

Ok... maybe I should start one? NVM... I found it!

Is there a new thread for this weeks weigh in? (22nd)... If so, I am having a hard time finding it!

Start Date July 15 - 172 Week 1 July 22 - 172 :grumble: Week 2 July 29 Week 3 August 5 Week 4 August 12 Week 5 August 19 Week 6 August 26 Week 7 September 2 Labor Day is Monday Week 8 September 9 Week 9 September 16 Week 10 September 23 Week 11 September 30 Week 12 October 7 Canadian Thanksgiving is on Monday Week 13…

Thanks so much for the info! :happy: I figured it probably had something to do with the nerve, I just wasn't sure what, or if it was a big problem. I found that the strange part was it was my whole left leg! All the way from my toes to my hip.

I also try to enter my food early in the morning and then stick to it. Then I have more of an idea what i will eat for the day as well as how well I am doing. There are homecoming community celebrations going on this week so tonight we went to an "International Cabaret" where you get to try all kinds of food from all over…

Right on, well great to meet you! :smile:

I'm also in Nova Scotia! Very neat!

Great advice!

You're completely right!!! We are still human and nobody is perfect. I falted today as well, but I'm not going to be upset about it. It's bound to happen from time to time! Tomorrow is a new day! Don't give up, stick with it. You can do it!

I find the same thing happens to me once I have been eating healthy for a while. I used to be able to eat all kinds of junk and it never bothered me. But when I have been eating healthy, and then have pretty much anything quite greasy (pizza or bacon cheeseburger, etc) the same thing will happen to me. I don't know the…

Welcome to the community! The thing that I love most about this site, besides the fact it will track your exercise and food, is the people. It is a place for great motivation and support. Never be afraid to ask questions, or for help when you need it. There are always people here that are willing to give you some support…
