Attention Team 3 (The Reducers!!)

By official vote, the Reducers has won for our team name! I love it. This had the official majority vote. No recounts, hanging chads or stuck threads to mess this one up. So keep up the good work everyone.

By the way, sabataging the other teams is great. Angel and Sarah our out top sabateurs here. Cheers for Team 3!! :)

Ok, so I complete missed the first week.  It is my understanding we weigh in on Wednesday, so I guess my first official weigh in will be next Wednesday.  When I signed up on the 15th my starting weight was 234.  Good luck everyone!  Dani

I like the reducers count my vote for that one 

I'm so bummed! I didn't lose any weight this week. I think maybe its because I've started a new work out and I might be gaining muscle or I did splurge one day. Well I guess I will try harder this week. Did everyone weigh-in?

Also just wanted to say thanks for everyone for voting on a name. I will close voting after Friday. So anyone who hasn't voted please vote before Friday. Thanks, Kristin

Just a friendly hello from Bums Away!

*waves hello*

ok.. back to my thread now...

*walks backwards out the door leaving a trail of cupcakes*

...hey, gotta secure team 1's win somehow.. right ;)

I like the reducers!

I vote for And a weigh we go.  I lost 3 pounds the first week.  I am so excited about the contest.  So....where do we go to look for the results?

haha Sarah, that's so evil of you!

This was our revenge to Sarah that I posted on their tread:

~~~ "Sarah, thanks for coming to visit us, Team 3. That was so very nice of you. Matter-of-fact it was so nice of you that we have decided to give your whole team a gift.

Here a giant tray of sugar-glazed doughnuts from Tim Horton's! (We can't use them.)
Also, if you look under the top 3 doughnuts, there you will find a box of home-made chocolate I made for all of you. (Actually, I made these before Christmas and forgot to use low-calorie ingredients) ENJOY!!!!

*Angel runs out the door, slamming the door behind her, as doughnuts are starting to fly in her direction.* "~~~

You don't think I was to hard on them, do you?

~Sarah~

 Leave all the cupcakes you want... we WILL resist them;)

LOL at Angel! No I don't think you were to hard on them. Just giving back what they give us. Its nice to have some friendly team rivalry.

BUMS AWAY TAKES ALL KEY TO ALL OF TEAM 3'S EXERSICE EQUPIMENT AND SAIL OFF INTO THE DEEP DARK SEA ARUGGGME TEAM MATIES .

*has dropped off the donuts and chocolate in team 2's thread*

This is the note I left for team 1:

By all means, please do enjoy all the wonderful snacks.

By the way..... *Angel takes her hands from behind her back*

Here a clothes hampter full of chips and cheezies

*Angel runs out the door screaming* "Hey guys, if you don't want them, feel free to give them to team 1!"

This is the one left for team 2:

Wheezer. We knew that someone was going to do something like that, so we each have our own seperate keys. No problem.

*As Angel runs out she turns the seat on the exercising bike backwards*

Yikes! So lonnnnng 

Haha Angel you're crazy!!

And I noticed several of the glazed donuts were missing from the tray Sarah returned! They're so going down!

Angle falls off bike because seat was backwards BUM"S AWAY is now making her walk the plank into the deep dark sea with her donuts/ AYYYYYYYYYYYYY me maties  BUMS AWAY

Ok Team, we came in last for this week.  There could be alot of reasons but come on, it wasnt even close!  Maybe we're all doing it the sensible 2-3 lb a week way?  Everybody take a look at youself and answer if you're honestly doing the best you can.  It's not a "diet," it's learning a healthy way of life....ok, I'm putting away my soapbox!  Let's live up to our name....GO REDUCERS!!!!!

Jem, the problem is that I haven't got anyone helping me destroy the other 2 teams.  We have to find their weak spots, and hit them hard! Come on team, lets tear them down!!!!

well, if I had just entered my weight 2 days later, it would have meant an extra 3.2 pounds down! (-5 vs. -1.8) bummer!

(edited my text because I was thinking wrongly that we started out with the lightest team)

Regardless, I am happy that the challenge has inspired me to lose weight this week -- I hope to maintain the extra 3 pounds for next week and hopefully add 1 on it!

Well done, clinder - I'm in the same boat, I stepped on the scale this morning and have lost another 3 lbs since my Wednesday weigh-in (Snoopy dance).  Great motivation to go back to the gym, as I love to see that ticker move!

I lost 1 pound the first week with just a change in diet.  Now after just two gym sessions, I'm down 3 in three days.  Fab.  I'm doing 30 minutes on an inclined treadmill, 30 minutes on the rowing machine, doing 1 minute sprint intervals every 5 minutes.  Hoping to soon add 15-30 minutes on a bike.

hey, i was just looking at the other teams forum posts and they have the list of everyone on the team and how much they've lots, etc.

we should have that too! it'd make it funner to see how everyone is doing on our team!

Come on Reducers! We can come back this week and take the lead!
