Hello all, it has been almost 5 months since i loged in! I'd like to start a challenge. Starting May 17th, my goals are..

1) Exercise 3 times a week for 35mins. It can be any days that you choose, you just have to make sure that you exercise 3 days out of the week. For every week you do this you will earn a

!!

2) Not eating after 8pm (or 3 hours before i got to bed). BIG problem for me!

Thats is for now, i think thats enough! Im going see if i can keep this going until May 17th (becuse it takes that long to form a GOOD habit) Who will join me!!

I'll join in. I too need to get back to healthy eating and excersizing at least 3 times a week ...if not more. Although, i am working on my healthy eating today...tomorrow and this weekend will suck. my boyfriend and I are planning on doing alot of cooking and none of it is healthy...i assure you. My job will be to try to watch portions of these foods. But hopefully, he will be heading back to work and i can get back to a somewhat normal excersize and diet routine again.

I will join, those are two things I need to work on also. The other thing I am personally working on is water intake. When I am doing good I sometimes find it hard to believe but there have been weeks on end where I never drank more than 1 small glass of water. I drank teas, colas, coffee's, coffee's, um latte's.....lol I think you get the point!

So exercising 3x per week (two of mine will probably be a kung fu class we are taking but I need to more than that!)

And not eating after 8-8:30 for me (3 hours before bed)

and personally speaking exceeding 64 oz of water daily, that is a minimum.

edzard's right i think we should add water to the goals! I hear water curves the appetite AND helps flush fat out of the body! Im so happy you all are jumpn on board!!

I would like to join this challenge. Its time to stop playing around with this weight loss plan. Seems like i'm the only guy joining this challenge, lets do this ladies.

Count me in, too. I definatly need to make going to the gym a priority. It's so easy not to!!
And the water, I'm working on it. I have a 32oz bottle I fill in the am and try to drink by the end of the day. It's hard!!! I would much rather have a Coke Zero!!
And the snacks.
I can do this!!!
