My water intake for today will be 100 ounces. I have found the easiest way to get my water in is to use my Weigh****chers bottle with the nice little straw and it has the measurement on the side. I also flavor my water with Crystal Lite to help get it down. I also set a challenge for myself in getting to 100 ounces per day and some days I make it and some days I don't, but what matters is that I do at least get in 64 ounces each day. Getting my water in each day helps to keep me from getting hungry and it helps to wash away the broken down fat especially after exercising.
Diana you are doing so well. Wow, 46 pounds already.
I realized today that from the time I started this process back in October I have lost (by my scales) 25 pounds. So that means I'm only 10 pounds from getting a surgery date. I'm so excited. I'm hoping to be pretty close to having that next 10 pounds off by the time I go to the NUT. on 1-25. I have 16 days in which to lose it. So it is drink water like crazy and exercise like crazy for me. I know that is asking a lot but I'm going to try for it over the next couple of weeks. Keep me in your prayers.
Good night all......

Topic: I got the JOB
I had my interview at 8:30 this morning. I thought it went really well, and was told that if they decided they would call me back for a second interview with the Director of Operations. I got home at 9:45 after the interview and recieved a call back at 11:00. The lady that did the first interview told me the DO cancelled some appointments to get me in and eanted to see me at 1:00. At 1:30 I had a job, they offered it to me at $1 higher then I thought it would be so I am very excited and I start on Monday. I really am excited because it fits in my schedule(while the kids are in school), and they have great benefits. I also had to take a drug test, so I have already gotten 70 oz of water in, so I am even more excited.

So far today I only have in 42 ounces. A long way from the 80-100 ounces. I'm just taking it one sip at a time today. You will get there. I'm going now to get me another 24 ounces of water to get down between now and the time I leave for church. Go get your water bottle and take a big swig. We will get there together.

My water consumption for Tuesday, January 8th was 94 ounces. Sorry I think I posted only to the Biggest Loser thread.
I will let you know about today after church tonight. Thank you for keeping track of all of this. I can't wait to see what our next challenge will be.

What I'm proud of for today: Spending quality time with my husband this afternoon and getting in my water.
Thank you Tonja. I'm really enjoying this message board. I will report in later tonight after church what my total water consumption is for today.

We are creatures of habit! Take it day by day. Let tomorrow be your new "good" day and then say that it is your new habit. It only takes one day of good to get us going in the right direction. YOU can do it! Just find what works for you. AND REMEMBER...each and every day is a new learning experience and you can only look back and smile because there is nothing we can do about the past but learn from it.
Tomorrow is going to be your day!

Thank you Diana and Tonja for the encouragement. I don't know what happened today but something got me up and going.
Diana, you are doing great after just having surgery a few days ago. Don't over do it working so hard.
My total water consumption for today was 96 oz. Tomorrow i will get to that 100 oz.
Tonja thanks for reminding me of my water in the protein drink.
I'm going to bed early tonight. I didn't sleep well last night due to the T-storms on this side of town and ending up with a dog and cat in my bed.
Have a great sleep everyone. Tomorrow is another beautiful day for doing something we are proud of and keep sharing those proud moments so we can all motivate each other.
Good night.....
