| chrisandheather, are you strength training? if you train the large muscle groups to failure at least two to three times per week, you will build more muscle and that will help to speed up your metabolism....also drink ice cold water, shake up your excercise and diet

| I know weight fluctuates, but it does get very frustrating! In one of the many books I've read on this diet or that, it said to weigh yourself daily and take the average of all of them to be your true weight-to much work for me-I bet we all wish there was just a magic pill to take and POOF, we're thin and healthy-I'd buy stock! I have gained 1.5 pounds and just getting back in to logging and exercising. Every time I go to my kidney doc he depresses me and i dont do well for a week or so, than I get back on track. Keep up the good work, dont let the scale get you down, I swear, they have a mind of their own.

Babbles its sooo frustrating, i wanted to see how my weight would jump during the week so i weighed myself almost everyday. and everyday it seemed to jump around so i think i might just go somewhere in between from now on. the only weight i really trust is when i weigh in on the 5th of every month and compare it with the months before.

Hi,
I'm sorry for not posting - I've had some health issues and also some Internet connection problems... However, I hope I'm back for good now, and I've lost 7.5 pounds since beginning of the challenge (I started at 207 and now I'm at 199.5 - YAY, finally out of 200s!) So I've got 2.5 to lose before the end of November, I hope I can do it!
Congratulations to everyone that has lost weight meanwhile!

I don't have a tv in my dorm room and i never know when the nascar races are on. i'm kind of curious to know where Matt kenseth is placed right now, but i dont' know anyone up here who keeps up with the races. i keep forgetting to look it up.
I'm having difficulty reaching my goal too, i don't even want to llok at how far i am from my goal. i know i should just to get my butt back in gear, but maybe when i'm done writing my paper and studing for my exams that i have to take before i can go home for thanksgiving.

| Good luck! i gained a pound back from when i was sick last weekend, and now i can't seem to get back on track. i'm hoping its down on monday when i weigh in. At least today i'm low on calories, but thats what happens when you give in to the college drinking.

| Still here, been down and out for a week now, keep trying to get enough energy to get back on track. My kidney doc just added iron pills to my tons of others, so maybe it'll give me a boost. I know I've gained back some of what I lost, not exercising, etc., and what to start losing again. Ya'll keep up the good work!

| i work for honda of america ( i build accords) and its all a part of the job....i actually log about 3000-5000 steps every two hours in there (depending on which job process i am on). Its a very physcially demanding job...i also try to walk about 2 to 3 miles a day for cardio since most other excercises are out for me right now due to a car accident related back and neck injury.

I didnt track today, still not eating much, got in 9 on the water, went to the mall and walked (window shopped basically) for a few hours-didnt stop at many stores, 100 crunches. No strength today, may try tomorrow. Wow, how do you get so many steps in everyday! That's amazing. Mandy and I have been doing challenges up until I got sick-hope to get back to it soon. Have a good night all!

Hi All!
Congrats on the loss! I lost 1 this week, surprised I lost any. I've been pretty sick and havent been able to do much of anything, no cardio, just barely able to take care of kids and a few household chores, but hope to get back on track in a few days. I'm not pushing to hard, dont wont to get worse-seems like every time I get going, I get sick and fall back-as long as I dont gain right now I'll be happy. Anyways-any challenge ideas? I'll continue to try something, even if I have to modify somehow! Have a great day!

| what are you going to do to guarentee your 10 pound weight loss for this month? I have 2 more pounds to go and I hope to loose that by the end of this week. I have increased my cardio minutes and that seems to be working.

| I didn't track calories all weekend, but i haven't been feeling the greatest, so i know i've been low on calories and water. i haven't wanted to move. Saturday i did some shopping wiht my best friend and helped my mom carry things down from the attic, so my cardio hasn't been too horribly bad. tomorrow i start tracking again...at least until i go home for thanksgiving again.

| Ok there is no way I will be doing the 3 miles tomorrow. I did 4 miles this morning for my cardio and then Richard and I went down to the strip to spend the day together and I think I must have walked another 5 or so. We had fun, but my quads hurt so bad! I am taking tomorrow as a rest day.
