TEAM MICKEY--Biggest Loser 11 Spring Team Challenge!

[KristiMc]

That is disappointing. But I won't hold it against you. For you see, I am a REDSKINS fan. So, I will have Sunday free.

Well I am a STEELERS fan and we have this Sunday free also

 

[Rose&Mike]

Nick had his MRI tonight. Now we have to wait for the results. I hope to hear tomorrow. I will definitely call by afternoon if I haven't heard as I will be a nut case over the weekend.

Deb--sending good thoughts your way for good results (and fast, too!).

 

[tggrrstarr]

Thursday will be the end of first week of the P90X challenge. Now only 12 weeks to go. I am walking around the house with moans and groans grabbing the stairwell, and pulling myself up out of the chair. It feels great!!

Dave

Congrats on your first week! I remember that feeling of sore muscles, especially after plyometrics!

Good morning,

I had a pretty good day on plan yesterday - even with a evening out. My book group met last night to discuss Julie & Julia. I loved the movie, but the book was pretty crappy. For our meeting everyone brought a Julia Child recipe. We had some yummy stuff and I was able to taste everything but not go overboard.

I tried reading it and gave it up. I didn't care for it either. The movie was good.

Watched The Doctors this morning and they had some interesting tid bits on diets. I'm not really following that diet they are promoting, but they said some things on fatty foods and meals that we eat. They said we all say we can eat a fatty meal once in awhile right? They said after you just eat one unhealthy meal, you're arteries start to restrict from it. I was a little scared knowing that. I didn't know much also about visceral fat and what it does to your organs. I'm so uneducated when it comes to what fat does to the body, but I'm learning and I do not like what what I'm reading.

I saw that too. I don't like how the diet book they were talking about is only at that website. I kept thinking about the arteries thing during dinner.

Well I started this journey on January 2nd. I've worked out every day (except Monday) and I will work out later tonight. I for giggles got on the scale this morning to see what it said. I'm not going to "officially" weigh myself until Sunday morning but was just curious what it said, 2 pounds GONE.. Now, let's see if those 2 pounds STAY gone

Great loss!

Well, I had my great loss week last week, I don't think I will be losing this week. The scale has been lingering at the same number all week so far.

 

[PRINCESS VIJA]

Nick had his MRI tonight. Now we have to wait for the results. I hope to hear tomorrow. I will definitely call by afternoon if I haven't heard as I will be a nut case over the weekend.

praying for good results from the MRI!

 

[my3princes]

praying for good results from the MRI!

Thank you and prayers will be said for your procedure tomorrow

 

[ReAnSt]

thanks, I sure hope they give me something the second I walk in the door to get the relaxation started.

Good luck I have had my share of medical procedures over the past year. I am surprised they did not give you something to take before you got there to already have you slightly calm on arrival.

So my ovarian cyst shrunk some I need another follow up ultrasound in 6 weeks. Hopefully it will be gone and the last ultrasound for awhile.

It is supposed to snow tomorrow, I am not looking forward to it.

Hope you are all doing well in your journey to a healthier life.

QOTD: Thursday, January 6, 2011: Describe your ultimate day at Disney!!!!

Hmmm...we'd wake up at the Poly, club level, take the early Segway tour at Epcot, followed by the late Keys to Kingdom tour at MK. Dinner at V&A's, Chef's Table, back to MK evening EMH, just in time to watch the fireworks and the late parade- a special one-night return of Spectro! We are picked to spend the night in the castle suite, but not before we shut down the late EMH at 3am like the Disney diehards we are! (Seriously, part of why we go in the summertime is because the parks stay open so late!)

Mayim Blalik or something like that? I loved Blossom, and remembered reading that she was super intelligent. I didn't know she was on Big Bang. I've never watched it, I might have to tune in sometime. Is it one of those shows I could jump in and watch, or would I feel lost?

Well, considering that last night I was watching what I thought was the latest one on our DVR, and it turned out to be one from the first season that I'd just never seen before, I think you could jump in and watch with no problems. There's not much of an over-arching plotline or anything. She isn't in every episode, but is a recurring character as one of the main five's "not-girlfriend".

I do a body test daily on wii fit, I really like keeping up with it, but that's about all I've used it for lately! Sometimes I'll do the yoga. The only thing I don't like, is even after going from obese to overweight to normal, my mii is still big.

Oh, that stinks! I feel silly, but that's one reason I keep sticking with wii sports instead of wii fit - I don't want to watch my mii turn into a little beach ball!

One thing I have changed is that I use to weigh myself everyday well that yoyo was making me nuts so my hubby said no more, only weigh in on weigh in day...so I can't wait to get on the scale tomorrow!!!!!!

Me too! I was a daily weigher every time I tried to diet in the past. I used to tell myself I knew weight fluctuated and that I wouldn't get bummed by a small gain...well, I could say that all I wanted, but the truth was another story. It made me a little obsessed, hoping every morning for another slight loss, getting bummed whenever I stayed the same or gained. But I am excited to weigh tomorrow!

Good morning,

I had a pretty good day on plan yesterday - even with a evening out. My book group met last night to discuss Julie & Julia. I loved the movie, but the book was pretty crappy. For our meeting everyone brought a Julia Child recipe. We had some yummy stuff and I was able to taste everything but not go overboard.

I've never seen the movie, but did read the book in one 2-hour sitting. NOT because it was good, though - I was just waiting for a ride, and I'm the kind of person who will read the cereal box at the breakfast table. I found Julie kinda self-involved and whiny, though the project seemed interesting. Her original blog appeared to have disappeared from the internet when I went to look for it -- I could only find her self-marketing site.

OK guys, I am scared and would love all of your good wishes, prayers and hugs!

Some may remember my health scare in August, I mentioned it earlier on in this thread. (blood clots in lungs, emergency surgery for clot in arm, ICU because they couldn't get me off the ventilator, almost died, very lucky to be alive)

tomorrow I need a TEE (transesophageal echo). they shove a tube down your throat to look at your heart, they need to determine what kind of hole I have in my heart and how to fix it. I am TERRIFIED!

I am VERY claustrophobic, strong gag reflux and as a nurse who has been in procedures for patients getting endoscopies (tube down throat to stomach) I have seen way tooo much! the gagging and wretching and panic I see in patients has me over the edge. I AM SOOOO SCARED!!! I did ask for stronger anesthetics, so they will have anesthesia providers do the sedation vs nurse sedation. They can put you deeper. BUt still I am FREAKING OUT!

any good thoughts would be very much appreciated!

(I am also going to post this on the CB, I need lots of support!)

Hope your tests went well and weren't too freaky today!

I think I need to learn how to take a quote out of posts lol

Just delete out the rest of the post except the quote you want. Leave all the coding gobbeldygook.

but, actually the girl exercised just about everyday (with a trainer, at gym at like 5am) and cut out all sugars, carbs, etc. Before she began her journey to lose the weight with the trainer her mom would test her, leave cookies out on the table to see if she'd eat them. Then the girl would eat like candy bars and hide the wrappers and her mom would find them and dump them on her bed while she was at school so she'd come home to see that. I felt bad for her, her mom IMHO was kinda heartless to her. Why do that to her?
Last night the girl LIVED on fast food, literally breakfast lunch and dinner, would not eat a home cooked meal. She too lost 90lbs in only 90 days. Her personal trainer was an ex Marine. She was eating well, he had a nice sized piece of meatloaf for dinner and some spinach, I think just the carbs were left out. Her training was intense though She started at 250 and in the end weighed in at 160, which was her goal weight.

Wow, the first one's Mom sounds pretty callous. Still seems scary to lose so much so fast, but it's a little less worrying when it's supervised like that.

I have a 32 ounce glass that I use. I fill it in the morning and drink it throughout the day. Then when its empty I just refill it one nother time, finish it, and tada I hit my water intake.

I like doing it this way cause it doesn't discourage me because I'm not having to refill an 8 ounce glass eight times. I can just fill the big one TWICE.

I do this too. I even take it to work - which sure helps keep me away from the soda machine.

Question - has anyone tried Nutrisystem? I was on it for about 2 months awhile back, and after some research, I now believe that it may have caused my gall bladder problems - well, not nutrisystem itself, but being overweight and then restricting my calories so much. After having it taken out in November, I though I would give it another shot, since I didn't have a gallbladder, what problems could it cause? Now that I am on it, after 3 days, I woke up last night with pretty bad stomach cramps, and they have continued all day. Now I think I should go off of it again, and try to sell the food. What do you all think? Thanks for the input!

Any dieting, but especially rapid dieting, can cause gallstones. But I don't know what could be causing your problems now. Not sure what to suggest!



Okay, I am falling asleep sitting up here, so it's time for bed!

Welcome to Healthy Habits!

My name is CC (short for Christina) and I will be your Healthy Habits coach for BL 11. I love the BL challenges and Healthy Habits has helped me significantly in achieving many of my goals.

Some Background Information: Thanks to donac (Dona-hostess of Team Donald) and jenanderson for their amazing help so I know how to coach! I couldn’t do this without seeing them in action previously. I will be continuing the prizes that Jen started.

Here’s How Healthy Habits Works: Each week there will be 3 Healthy Habits (HH) to complete. The first two HHs will always be drinking water and exercising. (Note: The amount and time will increase throughout the challenge!) At the end of each week, you will tally up the number of points you earned for the week and send me a private message with your total. Here’s an example. For Week 1, the 3 HHs are drink Six 8 oz. glasses of water a day, exercise a minimum of 20 minutes per day, and eat at least 3 servings of vegetables a day. If on 4 days you get in all 3 HHs, you would report your points like this:

4/6 days of drinking water
4/6 days of exercising
4/6 days of eating veggies
Your total points (ex: 12/18) should be in the subject of your PM.

This is a team competition. On/about Tuesday evening, I will post the week’s results. I will share the number of participants on each team and the top scorers on each team. New for BL 11: I will also list the people who earned 7/7 on one or more of the HHs for the week. If you participated on the team with the most participants, you will be entered into a drawing for the week's prize. Each prize will have something to do with the 3rd Healthy Habit for the week. I will post the winner and ask that you PM me your contact information. (Please Note: If you do not wish to be entered into the drawing, please let me know in your PM. I understand people’s WISHes for privacy.)

Participation in Healthy Habits is entirely optional, but I encourage you to participate and help your team be on top for the week. Good luck on your journey and I hope that HHs helps you as much as it continues to help me!

Welcome to Health Habits Week 2

Week 2 is 1/7-1/14

This week's 3 Healthy Habits are:
1) Drink Six 8 oz. glasses of water. (Up to 1 glass of coffee or tea count.)
2) Exercise a minimum of 20 minutes a day.
3) Journal/track what you eat.

At the end of the week, please PM me your points. I will post the results on/about Tuesday. Don't forget, this is a team competition!

If you have any questions, please free to ask. And, of course, have fun!

 

[cclovesdis]

I'm amazed. I had a very off-plan week and I am down 1.1 pounds!

Now, if only I had an OP week

 

[flipflopmom]

I'm very excited about meeting my goals for this week!! Worked out everyday this week so far....just have to make it to tomorrow morning Last night I went on a snacking binge, but finally stopped myself and brushed my teeth (works every time) and didn't eat the rest of the night, so the damage wasn't too bad!!Water drinking is going great and I have made my veggie goal!! So I'm very excited for tomorrow's weigh in!! One thin

THat's GREAT!!!!!!!

Good morning, everyone! I am so excited that I am going to Disneyworld today. But crazy busy at work. Just wanted to pop in to say that notwithstanding a lot of not-so-smart choices, I was down 1.2 today at weight in.

Way to go, pretty lady!!!!! HAVE A BLAST!

QOTD: Thursday, January 6, 2011: Describe your ultimate day at Disney!!!!the kids would actually take naps!

My kids theory is "we can sleep at home!"

OK guys, I am scared and would love all of your good wishes, prayers and hugs!

Sending prayers your way. Hope the extra sedation helps, take lots of deep breaths between now and then!

...the night in Cinderella's Castle. (All came full circle lol). a bit detailed orient, but it is what it is

LOVE IT!

man alive was it cold out during my walk last night! But I got through it

Good for you, I am really struggling with anything below about 45 degrees!

FOOD ALERT: I just read on the WW bulletin boards that the new flavor of FiberPlus bars that is something like chocolate caramel coconut is a good substitution for the Samoa variety of Girl Scout cookies.

YUMMO!!!

I am thinking of changing my pounds lost clippie. And I feel like maybe I should really own my actual earlier starting weight and not essentially deny it ever happened. SO, if you happen to notice that I've suddenly "lost" 10 more pounds, do not fear for my health or mental well being.

Thanks for letting us know, I probably would have stressed about it. And you SHOULD change it, you did it, be proud!

I still have it saved on my DVR but I hope to walk while I watch. If only I get over this cold!

Feel better soon!

I'm not really following that diet they are promoting, but they said some things on fatty foods and meals that we eat. They said we all say we can eat a fatty meal once in awhile right? I didn't know much also about visceral fat and what it does to your organs.

That visceral fat is some scary stuff, and unfortunately, pretty hard to get rid of!

QOTD: My dream day at Disney is pretty simple. I just want to be there, have everyone be in a good mood, no one tired and grumpy, be able to ride what we want to ride with minimal wait times, and enjoy the entire day. Is that too much to ask??

That's a great day!!!!!

I'm 35, and have four young kids. I need to lose a good amount of weight but my real goal is to get fit and be energetic and strong again. I'm sick of eating junk, rarely exercising, being exhausted, and setting a bad health example for my children.

Once you start losing and exercising, and changing what you put into your body, you'll be amazed!!!!! You can do this, and we'll be here for you every step of the way!

Well, Mike is home, and Tom is on his way back to school. I am pooped. It's been a long year already.

YAY for Mike being home, and I agree, in some respects, 2011 came in like a LION!

Well I started this journey on January 2nd. I've worked out every day (except Monday) and I will work out later tonight. I for giggles got on the scale this morning to see what it said. I'm not going to "officially" weigh myself until Sunday morning but was just curious what it said, 2 pounds GONE.. Now, let's see if those 2 pounds STAY gone

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!

Thanks! It was tough, and cold, but I survived and went again this morning. Soreness is really setting in now! But it feels good to be out there, and I absolutely love getting my workout over with by 7 a.m. It is so much easier than at the end of the day!

If I don't do it before work, I realistically know it won't get done. Unless I am doing arms/abs/strength. But I just can't get up for cardio after work!

I hope this keeps up! Luckily it's a 5pm massage so I should be home by 6:30ish.Tomorrow I will get up and do the BL Last Chance Workout and hopefully 1-2 miles of the Power Walk before my weigh in. As of this morning I had a small loss so that's good for the first week!
I think DH and DD1 will have pierogies and DD2 will have Mickey nuggets.

YAY for lots of clients! What is a Mickey nugget?

At the beginning of this journey I said I would make small goals for myself to complete each week. The first week's goal was to walk 3 miles on my treadmill over the course of the week. Well, this afternoon I finished that goal.

GREAT JOB!!!!

Long week! Tom is back at school. That's a relief. This has been a rough week for him too, and I know he will be glad to be back with his friends. I got a run in today! It was so wonderful to be able to run.

So glad he made it safely, and that You got to run!

I took a peek at the scale today and it showed 3.2lb loss since my weigh in on monday. I will take that. hopefully tomorrow it says the same or less. I had to rush out of work early because nicholas's eyes were both swollen this time after nap at school.

Poor Nicholas! Anything new been introduced around him? Cleaners, laundry detergents? GREAT JOB ON THE LOSS!

QOTD- 1/7/11 Friday-
What are your plans for the weekend? and what changes or plans are you making to be sure you stay on plan? Sunday will be a big day in our house. We are huge EAGLES fans. The 1st playoff game is at 430 on sunday.

Since I really don't care much about NFL, like to watch it but don't have any strong ties, I'll cheer for the Eagles for you!

QOTD: If I don't clean this house and get the Christmas stuff put away, my mental stability will be in even more question that it is now! Have Pampered Chef training Sat. evening/night. Lots of food will be served, so I am stressing that a bit, but taking my water. Sunday, lunch at Mom's, but I am determined to try to stay on the straight and narrow for a change! Chances of snow intermittent for about the next 5 days, so we'll see!

I'm a little nervous about weighing in tomorrow--my normal weigh in day is Monday. But I've stayed on plan all week, and have exercised a little bit every day. So hopefully, I'll show a loss.

Good luck, and great job staying OP!

tomorrow-we are going to bar to celebrate my friend's birthday. I have saved my WW points all week for some champagne! !

Sounds like a GREAT weekend! Enjoy!

. Did I mention that it's Food and Wine???!!!! I would spend time in each country trying the food and a drink in each country. I would also try and take photos of all the food that I ate. And best of all, I WOULDN'T GAIN A POUND after eating everything!!

Love this!!! Thanks again for doing the weights, HUGE Job, and much appreciated!

I was on it for about 2 months awhile back, and after some research, I now believe that it may have caused my gall bladder problems - well, not nutrisystem itself, but being overweight and then restricting my calories so much. After having it taken out in November, I though I would give it another shot, since I didn't have a gallbladder, what problems could it cause? Now that I am on it, after 3 days, I woke up last night with pretty bad stomach cramps, and they have continued all day.

Don't know ANYTHING about the nutrisystem, but know a bit about gallbladder. Had to have mine taken out 3 months after my oldest was born. Things that bothered me before, still bother me. I can no longer eat my raw onions (fresh from garden). Raw cabbage, and some other things bother me. ANYTHING fried, cannot handle it, I am sick, sick, sick, which is a good thing. But the problems didn't go away just because it was removed.....

Thursday QOTD:
Since I can't go to Disney at Christmas due to work, I would start my day in early December at the GF and eat BF at 1900, checking out the decor beforehand. Then we would go park and hotel hopping to see all the Xmas decorations. We would end the day at MVMCP.
I started out at the gym on the treadmill and did my weekly grocery shopping (a day late). I just got back from dinner and only ate half! I have leftovers for tomorrow. Back on track with water too.

I want to take the kids at Christmas, too. Great job staying OP!!!!!!

Nick had his MRI tonight. Now we have to wait for the results. I hope to hear tomorrow. I will definitely call by afternoon if I haven't heard as I will be a nut case over the weekend.

I know you have to be stressed! Hoping and praying for good news!

Mickey Nuggets are from Costco. They are chicken nuggets in the shape of Mickey heads!

Down 1.8 this week which is good for a PMS week (sorry, guys, we share a lot here). I did the Last Chance workout this morning! It was rough. I didn't want to over do it this morning as I'm feeling a bit run down. Just been a crazy week with kids going back to school, activities back in motion, cleaning, shopping and working. Not much down time for me this week. Hopefully it will be better next week. I will have to do my EA Sports Active workout later.

Gained another regular client last night! He'll come for weekly lower leg and foot massages. He's a diabetic so it's very important for his feet! Really nice guy, I actually know his daughter and family from church!

Well, I guess I should go and start getting DD1 up and going. Going to work until about noon today and then running a few errands. Supposed to get a little snow tonight and tomorrow so I don't know if we'll have to go out to basketball tomorrow or not. I wouldn't mind having a day in jammies! I got really into those over vacation!

TTFN

 

[flipflopmom]

So my ovarian cyst shrunk some I need another follow up ultrasound in 6 weeks. Hopefully it will be gone and the last ultrasound for awhile.

YAY!!!!

We are picked to spend the night in the castle suite, but not before we shut down the late EMH at 3am like the Disney diehards we are! Me too! I was a daily weigher every time I tried to diet in the past. I used to tell myself I knew weight fluctuated and that I wouldn't get bummed by a small gain...well, I could say that all I wanted, but the truth was another story. It made me a little obsessed, hoping every morning for another slight loss, getting bummed whenever I stayed the same or gained. But I am excited to weight tomorrow!

I would love to shut MK down sometime. My kids can't hang w/ that yet! I am a daily weigher. For me, being a bit obsessed keeps me OP. Honestly, when I stop weighing daily, I gain. Out of sight, out of mind...

I'm amazed. I had a very off-plan week and I am down 1.1 pounds!

See!!!!! Proud of you! Next week will be amazing!

Replies in 2 posts, because I started to reply last night, and couldn't formulate a thought. My mind was exhausted! My body was achy, from lack of sleep, but more energy. I have to admit, getting back to a healthier lifestyle makes me FEEL GREAT! My body is very happy with me not to be adding the junk, and moving! I have had something like 12 hours sleep since Tuesday, so I am glad to have the energy boost from healthy eating! And thankfully, that starved feeling finally went away yesterday, my appetite has shrunk, just wasn't hungry! Hooked on a feeling, for sure!

WE GOT SNOW!!! Just got the magical call of NO SCHOOL today!!! Sophie is already at MIL and FIL, hopefully it will warm up later and I can go get her, DH took the 4WD this am, but AK will sleep late, and I can get a jump start on the CLEANING!!!!! More chances intermittently through about Wed. of next week. BRING IT ON!!!

Going to weigh in a bit. I tend to bloat during the night, and need to wait until 7ish to weigh. From what I've seen thus far this week, I am pleased.

FOR THE NEWBIES - DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE CLIPPIES! If you click MORE under the smilie list to your right, the WISH weight loss clippies are at the bottom. They are in 5 pound increments, starting with 5 pounds, and for me, very motivating. Like how I know I'm going to loose my 65 pound clippie this week, (should have last week, but gave myself the week to see if I could keep the 60 or need to scale back to 55).

Have a great weigh in! HAPPY FRIDAY, and remember - DON'T UNDO ALL YOU'VE DONE ALL WEEK BY WEEKEND SPLURGES!!!!! Send those HH points to CC and weights to Tracey (tigger) ASAP!!!

GO TEAM MICKEY!!!!!

Mickey Nuggets are from Costco. They are chicken nuggets in the shape of Mickey heads! Down 1.8 this week which is good for a PMS week (sorry, guys, we share a lot here). I did the Last Chance workout this morning! He's a diabetic so it's very important for his feet! I wouldn't mind having a day in jammies! I got really into those over vacation!

Cool, of course, no Costco for miles, but if I ever get to one, I'll be getting some! Glad you had a loss! Is last chance a DVD or Wii? Glad to see the diabetic taking care of his feet. Daddy ended up losing a toe, and a ulcer on his footbed that never healed. He had pretty much lost all feeling in the bottom of his feet - walked on STEAMING hot asphalt barefooted one time, burned his feet, never knew it. I am ALL ABOUT JAMMA days!

Question, just for info purposes, how does the team part work? Mickey vs. Donald? Participation? Percent loss? Pounds loss?

 

[mikamah]

Happy weighin day Team Mickey!! Good luck to everyone!!

 

[The Mystery Machine]

So question about the HH?

So we have to do all 3 things in order to report it as a HH?

Ex. On Sat, I drank 6 water but did not exercise or eat veggies. So that does not count?

You get a point for each day for each item on the list you complete. SO if you complete all items everyday for the week you get 21 points. If you do 5 days of one, 3 days of another and 7 days of the third you 15 points.


Taryn- If I can work it all out I will report on participation, percentage and total weight loss.

Right now, I have 5 Mickey weigh ins and 7 Donald weigh ins and they are doing well!!!

Time to get a move on!

TTFN

 

[flipflopmom]

DOWN 6 POUNDS!!!!!

Now, I had an unfair "advantage", because I had a bit of post car-ride bloat on weigh in day (usually about 3-4 pounds). TOO EXCITED, though!

 

[Rose&Mike]

QOTD- 1/7/11 Friday-

What are your plans for the weekend? and what changes or plans are you making to be sure you stay on plan?

.

We do not have plans for the weekend except to run 6 miles on Saturday--and I am soooooo happy. Looking forward to a few quiet days. I would like to do some house cleaning and some meal planning for next week.

I saw that too. I don't like how the diet book they were talking about is only at that website. I kept thinking about the arteries thing during dinner.

.

Just remember that you DO need healthy fats--omega 3s etc. I will look and see if I can find a spark article on this. Your brain needs them and your heart and your joints.

So my ovarian cyst shrunk some I need another follow up ultrasound in 6 weeks. Hopefully it will be gone and the last ultrasound for awhile.

.

Here's hoping it goes away with no problems. I have had a few rupture and it is really painful.

I'm amazed. I had a very off-plan week and I am down 1.1 pounds!

Now, if only I had an OP week

CC--did you get some exercise in?

Tracey--woohoo for being down 1.8 and for gaining another regular client!!!

Taryn--woohoo for a snow day! I am so glad Tom went home yesterday. I haven't looked this morning, but most of the snow went south of here so I'm guessing the mtns in NC and TN are a mess today. I called him to tell him I love him last night and he sounded pooped but happy to be back. Hope Brad gets to work and back safely.

So question about the HH?

So we have to do all 3 things in order to report it as a HH?

Ex. On Sat, I drank 6 water but did not exercise or eat veggies. So that does not count?

My understanding is that you should report like this:
xx/18 (total because this week because there was only 6 days).
x/6 for water
x/6 for veggies/
x/6 for exercise.

CC is hoping to recognize people who complete even one of the tasks for the week. And remember even if you only did part of the HH you should report because it's a TEAM competition.

Hope everyone has a fabulous day! I am going to get up and walk on the treadmill for a bit and then go to work. Hoping to get caught up a bit today cause I am really behind. I might have to bring some stuff home this weekend. Tomorrow is a short run--only six miles.

Have a great day everyone!

 

[Rose&Mike]

Just a reminder:

When you send in your weigh in and your healthy habits PLEASE include what team you are on. It will make things so much easier for CC and Tracey if they don't have to try to figure out what team you are on. I have over a 160 people signed up for the challenge, so that's a lot of names to sort through! Thanks!

Thanks for reposting that as I'm still getting PMs without teams!

I'm only down .8 not 1.8 but I'll take that extra pound if you really want me to have it!!!!

I am planning on coming home and taking a nap this afternoon. I'll check with my boss when I get in. I need to do EASA2 this afternoon too.

The Last Chance WOrkout is a DVD. It has several different workouts based on week and what type of workout you want like sculpting and toning or cardio. I did the basic one and I was sweating 10 minutes in like crazy. It was about 40 minutes which will be great for days when I don't have a ton of time.

DD2 is all dressed and almost ready to go. I was checking in again for weigh ins. I will get caught up when I get home later.
