Need to shake things up a bit

So this Wednesday for weigh-in, I was only down another .6 pounds.  Still down, and I wasn't too surprised, considering I'd been up and down all week.  But then this morning I'm back up .4!  Very frustrating.  I know this is normal, but I'm thinking maybe there's something I can do to shake things up a bit and get things moving.  I'm going to try running every day...do my regular long C25K runs Mon/Wed/Fri, then do maybe an 8-10 minute run Tues/Thurs/Sat.  I'm also really thinking about starting to add in strength training.  Maybe I could try it for a few days and see what it does to the scale.  I do know that I didn't get as much water as I should have yesterday.  I've noticed that the days I drink more water, the scale reflects a loss.  So I need to focus on pushing the water as much as I can.

My Biggest Loser competition is coming to a close on Tuesday.  Pretty sure I've won this one.  We're starting round 2 on Tuesday as well.  This time, I'm running it.  I'm going to try to be more active on it - instead of just posting numbers, I want to post some questions that get people thinking.  Something that's going to help keep people focused on their end goal.  I'm thinking about having everyone post their overall goals and motivations, and then pick one thing that is the most important to them to focus on during the entire competition.  Then order the rest in order of priority, and take one each week, or every 2 weeks to add.
