!!Health4life team Thread!!!

Ok all here for motivation!!!!  

Cardio minutes

KT-195

chris-160

sheila-45

val-180

I'm excited too guys.  So what kind of plans do you all have to get your 30 minute walking in?  I'm going to do my treadmill. 

I heard next week's challenge is most likely going to be cardio.  I'm not sure what that will include; aerobics?  What do you guys think?  Do you think that counts as cardio?

Either way, I hope to be a big loser for our team...I'm losing pretty regularly and stepping up on my exercise will surely speed that up.  Woohooo  LETS GO, WE CAN DO IT!!!  RA RA RA

Oh yeah, and after I realized Dances was just trying to get to us, I popped into the team 2 forum and called her out.  It turns out she's popped into all the other teams too and dropped little sabatoge posts.  I guess the competition has begun!  I couldn't return the favor and do a sabotage post in team 2 because I have friends on her team. 

She still has it posted as walking........so we gonna assume that is what it is...lol

KT u wanna keep track of all of our minutes for walking??  that would be a huge help......u can create it all in a spreadsheet by daily and it will calculate it all for ya.......

Yes areobics count as cardio!!! 

Im so excited about our team i think we have a good one here!!  And i began a walking routine thursday and will be walking 60 min for 4 days this week, and the others i will walk also just prolly noot as much the 30 so we should have a good start!!! 

This challenge is the added UMMP i need.........cant wait to get to know everyone!!!

ok i talk alot!!!!

We have 2 names......so lets take a vote UNLESS THERE ARE MORE SUGGESTIONS!!!

go4teamspirit     &n bsp;or      &nb sp;    health4life

plzzzzzzzzzz e1 vote!!

ooo vk I think she changed it in the sign ups thread but you're right it does still say walking in the commentary/standings thread. Things keep changing!!!!! ahhh! haha

chris I'll keeep track of hte walking for the week. So people can either post their daily walking or weekly walking. I will sift through the threads before I report them to make sure I got everyone's minutes.

I'm planning to go tot he gym tonight after work. Then we are going to the bar for my cousin-in-law's sister's 21st b-day. So we will walk there so that'll be another good 14 blocks of walking or so. I walk all over campus Tues/Thurs. so wednesday looks like I'll have to make sure and do something. 

Remember guys: even if you are just walking aroudn your neighborhood, walking aroudn the mall, walking anywhere....it counts! It doesn't take that long so make sure to get it in!

Hey Team 4 .... I'm ready for this challenge !  Been here at CC for just a couple of weeks, but had been counting my calories prior to finding this site.  Looks like I'm the G'ma of the group (51 yrs), but only have a 15 year old so will NOT be a G'ma any time soon !!
For the last 5 years my weight has really gone out of control and now have some health problems because of it.  I'm not real active physically, but I am hoping with this challenge and my team encouragement, I CAN and WILL do it !! 
I have a name to throw in the "hat":   Lose4MyHealth, or Lose4Me, I do like the Healthy4Life too !!
Looking forward to getting to know all of you !! 
Let's DO IT !!!

Oh that's funny Chris, posting similar posts at the same time...Great minds think alike!  :)

Don Vito checking in

Sorry for the delay but I didn't make time to be on the computer this weekend.

I'm 31 w/2 kids (10,9 - boy,girl respectively) I just found this site last week and I've learned a lot so far. I'm extremely competive so being on a team with challenges will totally motivate me.

As for a team name I like Health4life.

I have a question on the challenge and sorry if you have addressed it already but Chris, by when would you like us to let you know how many minutes we walked?

Thanks and good lookin out.

Hi don!!!!  

I think we should log in here daily with our walk numbers......one it will keep everyone on track!!! 

Im very competitive as well so we better win!!! haha 

so question for everyone what r your goals for this first challenge, as in how many minutes are u going to walk i think if we choose our numbers now we will be more committed cause this is what we committ to as a group.........so im gonna ask everyone to post their goal and then ill add it up for a team goal!!!!  And remeber this is intentional walking ..........

hugzzzzzzz all

oh and with that said i turn in the nubers for our challenge saturday ...........so we have till saturday to get all the minutes we need!!!  so figured that was useful in calculating our "goal"

Hi Don, did you hear my big mouth calling you out??  Lol  Glad you found us...and glad to see you're competitive.

Chris-I'm going to aim for 45 minutes of walking a day.

kk VK and ur right g8 minds think alike!!!!

my goal is 330 min. for the week........ 

A daily update works for me and yes Val I felt you calling me out. LOL 8)

I'm going to commit to 30 min a day. So just to make sure I understand 30 min x 6 days (including Saturday) = 180. Sorry if I sound lame or what not but I just want to make sure I get it right.

BTW I'm on West Coast time. I live in Sourthern California.

ok well ta ta for now.

Hey Team 4.. Helloooooooooooo

I am Parul, 27 yrsold. I am a newer member on Calorie count.. I have been thin ( healthy thin :) all my life. But after i got married 2 years ago.. i just started putting on weight 1-2 lbs a month.. and i am now 44lbs heavier..but now to ready to amke taht history and get fabulous again.. ..  :) :)

Team name - How about Team Fantastic 4

I am going to say I will be logging in 60 min a day!!  That will probably be a combination of running and walking....do I need to track them differently or just tell you my total for the day?  Go team go!!!

I still like health4life.  But they are all good!  8)

I will commit to 30 mins a day minimum...

woooooooooohooooooooooo welcome to the team fab!!!  sorry i cannot call u flab the first part of ur name just does not seem nice!!! 

As for running i think that would count just fine for walking as well, i sure hope to be running by the end of the summer!!!

im leaning toward health4life as well that is all of our ultimate goals!!!!   ok we will let e1 continue with their "votes" and we will know my tomorrow morning!!!

BTW im on yahoo messenger all day lol if anyone ever needs to or wants to chat......gemini62894

and yes Don u are correct!!! 180 min.  i mean as far as i know we count saturday unless i hear otherwise saturday counts!!
