Count me in. I need this challenge to motivate me to stay cheat free. :thup:

Newmee; 127- goal 119
Hellraiser: 151 - goal 143
Kristine: 143 - goal 137
rosemam: 152 - goal 144
woolina: 176 - goal 168

So let's start it and try to lose about 8 pounds until the end of the month.

The rules are:
- NO CHEATING, as in ZERO CHEATS and no excuses.
- 64 oz water a day.
- 30 minutes minimum exercise a day and no excuse days.
- Straight induction or perhaps a bit more of carbs for those who are not in induction anymore.
- Take your suplements.
- Smile, you are slimmer!

Hey pals!

I'm on my second fatfast day. With my wedding in one month I need all the help I can get and the scale just doesn't seam to move down from 151 these days! :(

Going for the second fatfast no cheat day...

Cheers,
H.

Here is to cheat free, I am really trying to increase my water intake, I am in this challenge, and I also have only smoke a part of one cigarette today, and threw it away. I read an article that says when you quit your lungs start healing and need even more water, so I am chugging away at my desk here......
Feels like everytime I go to the bathroom, I fill up my sports bottle again, and make myself drink it before I can go pee again, I am going to float away. :lol:

hellraiser Tue, Oct-07-03 14:06

LOL woolina!

Floating away here too. I get two 1.5 L bottles in the morning and make sure I empty them before the working day is over.

WC here I go again...........

Cheers,
H.

Good luck with the fat fast! I think I might be in a stall, however hopefully that will change, with the start up of tennis practices. So far Ive been drinking 72oz of water a day. And I wont know if it is starting to work, working until Sat. since I made myself PROMISE not to step on the scale untill Sat. I mainly did that because while I never gained any back, its still kind of dissappointing, not changing. (by the way see my journal!I just started YAY)

Oh and because i forgot to do this earlier...
