where is our team.....

no word from

• brandy
• jess
• jj
• don

This is true about the sweets challenge needing to be clarified.  Eh, but they have until tomorrow to get out the specifics, right?  When is our week?  I think I'd vote for either walking, weights, or maybe even cardio. 

i think i would be fine w/ cardio. i need another reason to step things up! i'm such a slacker!

i'm going to miss tomorrow mornign's workout b/c i'm going to a party tonight. i plan to go and at least swim tomorrow though adn hopefully ride or run as well.

i think tehy are team 2 so ours should be in 2 weeks i think.

wow still missing 4 WTH?  im not a morning person so i sure hope they post soon lol

well, i hope brandys FIL, is ok......  she did give me her new weight, so i do have that, a few days ago, which is why she didnt weigh n sat.

i know don, was taking time off work!!

JJ, has been logged on today, just nothing here

was Jess going out of town...she hasnt been on sice the 29th

ok reading Jess's journal says she was going on vacation, that makes since lol

hmmm ppl mia? that's not so good! hopefully they are doing good!

well my friends who were supposed to go to teh party w/ me tonight backed out (my friends are just really steppin up for me while the b/f is gone aren't they?) so I don't want to go there by myself b/c I'm going to want to drink but i don't want to stay there overnight. so i'm oging to go to my cousin's instead to hang out. i was really lookin forward to goin to a party though b/c i've been so stressed out. o well. i won't be going crazy over my cals since I won't be drinking then so that's a plus i guess.

speaking of the b/f....he bought me a skirt today in tiberius (sp?). i hope it fits! i must say that i'm more excited about the jewelry he bought me :) he told me he bought me a necklace but didn't tell me what the other jewelry was so i'm excited. I'll be picking him up from teh airport on tuesday, bringing him home to sleep and then i'm taking wednesday off from work to spend with him. i can't wait! having all my friends kinda let me down the past few days has really made me realize how important he is and how much i can rely on him no matter what. i really think him being on this trip has made him realize how good we are for each other and that he needs to just propose already damnit! haha

Hey everyone!! Hope you don't mind my butting in... but I think I'm joining your team!! I hear there's a new challenge starting in the next day or 2?? I'm ready!! I'm waaaaaaay too competitive... but since you guys might be my team members that's good for you!! If anyone has a problem with me joining so late just let me know. Thanks!

i didnt know we were gettin new ppl! welcome! we are a competitive little bunch here!

ok i'm way proud of myself! i resisted temptation again!so i was drivin home from my cousin's and i was  majorly craving a mcflurry but i didn't get one! i came home and ate 2 sugar free popsicles instead (5 cals each). i'm plannin on doing a double workout tomorrow so maybe i'll splurge on a mcflurry then but hopefully not!

wow what great reinforcement! i weighed at 209.2 today! holy crap i hope that's for real and it sticks around. the past 2 days I have been right on my cals for teh day, didn't go over and have been drinking lots of water so I'm going to be really careful this week and see if i can get a 2 pound loss this week!

YAY KT!!  that is cool, i just turned numbers in, i should of did your new weight but i did 210!!

I weighed this morning and it was 190!!!  but i turned in 191...

ok all here are out this weeks stats:

• Toatal weight loss:  9 pounds
• total crunches      & nbsp;5920

Good job everyone!!!

Does anyone know yet how and what exactly this challenge is???  is nycolea or megan sending out the info?  Well if it is no sweets, easy enuff, i never eat them!!!  I didnt get fat by eating sweets, i got fat by fast food, and drinking!!  lol ok seeing if anyone on our team knew what was going on!!

nope i still havent heard anything about the new challenge.

thanks chris! i wanted the 210 anyway b/c when i get too excited about a new low number it seems to come backto bite me in teh butt so i like to give it a day or two at that number before i believe it haha. i'm really surprised that even w/ what i ate on the 4th i've lost this much. i guess i found what works! woohoo!

how  are you feelin chris? your cold gone away? how about the cig coutn?

woohoo i ran a mile nonstop! unfortunately i couldn't do much after that lol but I still walked another mile adn a half or so. now i just need to tack on 5 more milkes to that and I'm good! haha

Hey Trvlta (sheila) i'm glad you found the team!!!  KT, Sheila's a friend.  I was telling her about the whole challenge thing and how much it's (all of you) have helped me stay motivated and active. 

So...no word on the challenge for this week I see.  Do we know who won the crunch challenge yet?? 

Just came back from the zoo.  We had a blast!  It was hot though...we hit 99 with the humidity factor.  Ugh KT, I really realllllly feel for you!!!  Thank goodness they have a sprinkler area...we used it to cool off and LilV got soaked.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WINNERS THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we won teh crunches! you guys kicked butt! and we came in a strong second for overall points!

it's actually only about 90 degrees here right now. its such a relief! i still need to go out and swim today. maybe i'll wait a little longer.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!!! Do the new challenges ust get posted as a new reply on here? Apparently it's still a mystery for this week... I just can't take the excitement!!!! :)

MEMO: Awesome week guys!
