| As for teh fat, you can eat as little as you like, just dont go over your magic number.
Points are awareded only if you stay under the number. Hope that clarifies. |

| Wow guys! you have me welling up here, im so sorry I have not been around as much as I was last time.
I am having a really hard time with my diet at the moment as I am suffering from Hiatus Hernia and GERD, its really hard to be able to stick to a proper diet when all i can eat is rice and peas, and soy milk! Im really glad that you are all doing so well, Sarah you are truly an inspiration!! It is dissapointing when ppl drop out, but its human nature, and if one person manages to lose even a pound then it has been worth while! Keep up the good work ladies! |

| Hi Everyone,
Im sorry I have not been around, I have some stomach issues that are really draining me right now, and I havent been able to put my all into this challenge :( I have posted week 5 & 6, and also left week 3 & 4 on the board, as people seemed to miss it when i changed it before. hope that helps. dont forget to post your stats. I have not anounced winners this time as it was a very poor turn out, I thought that I would just nominate one winner at the end :) |

| You get 9 points per workout for a total of 8 work outs. So doesnt matter when you did them during the 2 weeks you get 9 points per workout!
The reason I have stopped it at 8, is that it is healthy to get some rest days. So if you worked out 3 days one week and 5 the next thats still 8 workouts and the max points. Hope that clarifys? |

| Wow thats some exercise!!! Well done! Its hard to focus on two things at once eh! I know that my exercise has not been bad, but my calories have been awful! I am really looking forward to the next one! the last fibre challenge we did, I rocked!! If anyone has some good fibre recipes please post! This one is really simple! Take 250 grams of dark chocolate 2 cups whole wheat cereal 1 cup all bran buds 1/4 cup flax Melt the chocolate and add the cereal and flax, put into cake cups and chill until set. these are great little mid morning or afternoon snacks, they are around 130 cals each an contain a whopping 9 grams of fibre each!!! Trust me you dont want to gorge on these you will never get off the toilet! |

| A piece of advice for both girls, eat your pills half way through a meal! it absorbes the pill better and stops the nausea! | |||

| You can keep track whatever way makes you feel better, there are no hard and fast rules, the only stipulation I have is that you record your total points and wieght at the end of the challenge in a timely manner! As each week there is a mini winner and someone gets a honorable mention :)
I had my dental surgery last night so dinner was mashed potatoes and carrots :( LOL |

| Susie,
I dont really know, is my honest answer LOL, I know that I do it the same way as Lozzle, So i guess you can pick one. I would use the 185 dont cheat yourself. LOL I tottally blew it yesterday, i was good all day and would have just scrapped by had it not been for the sushi tempura and half a gallon of red wine! Been good today though and have dental surgery booked for 4.30pm! so soy milk and tylenol for dinner. |

| Susiecue - not really sure what you mean, but your true cal intake will be what you took in, minus what you burnt off, does that make sense? | |||

| Sybil - The 8 points are for just this 2 week period, there will another set of points to be earned in the next period. If in the points and stats thread you posted your start wieght as say 150 and at the end of this 2 week period you were 149 then you get the 8 points, it is for total wieght loss not by the pound. I didnt want to encourage huge amounts of weekly wieght loss as I do not think it is healthy, an average of 1 - 2 lbs is average.
Hope that clarifys and good luck :) |

| Hi maddie,
How it works is, every 2 weeks I will set a new challenge, so for instance in weeks 1 & 2 you have to set a calorie range and stick to it, if you do this you get 5 points per day, the second part of weeks 1 & 2 is to exercise at least 4 times a week, if you do that you get 9 points for every day you work out. and then if you lose wieght at the end of the period you get additional points. we add these all up at the end of the challenge and announce a weekly winner and then an eventual winner of the challlenge. its good fun and keeps us all motivated. I will post the first challenge shortly and will have a pdf of the complete challenge for anyone who wants to see it, by Friday. |
