If you're taking requests, I prefer Cherry, or Bubble Gum.  :-D

I cheated this morning, cause we were in a hotel, and had to be at an appointment by 9am and we still had to have breakfast.  So I showered quickly, but washed my hair in cold... as quickly as possible.  Tomorrow I will resume my full 5 minute and no, it doesn't seem to be getting any easier... :(  Dang!!

26 and a half days left... maybe the last day, I'll be able to do 9 minutes to make up for today's shortened cold shower!

I have nothing terribly positive to say about the last 2 days cold showers except I do feel good when they are done. Only 26 more to go! Hope your all making your beds :)

Having that cold shower done and out of the way, is a REALLY nice thing, hehehe!  As for making my bed... YES siree, every single day, like clockwork, hehehe!

Well, it's over for today.  I'm still cold, takes a while to warm up again.

it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and i had to wash my hair ::)

Only 29 days to go.

Put the timer on and it went off at the five minute mark with me still in the shower.  probably stayed about seven minutes, no wonder I'm cold.

The  first blast of cold on my skin was the worst but putting water on my head wasn't as bad - no idea why.

It made me feel thinner - maybe all my muscles were shrinking as I stood under the cold ;D

There's will power, and then there's will power... this temperature-challenged woman can't handle Canadian winter and ice-cold showers. Tried. Turned into little brown ice chip. Took me ages to return to room temperature, like a freezer-burnt turkey. Guess this challenge just isn't happening for me! Gonna substitute a daily exercise challenge. At least that warms one up...

Don't give up Osb, that's why it's called a challenge.

I really think I will be ready and capable of anything after 30 days.

I am looking forward to the benefits.  There have to be some :-\

Since when is it also "make your bed?" one nice thing about being alone is I get to have my nice big pillowy nest of bed mess that I like.
