I submitted our points for Week 5 to Jules.  Pokaroni has been dropped from the score sheet since we haven't received any points from her since week 2.

Have a great weekend. 
I posted my link on the submission thread....who's doing recipes this week?  I can come up with something if need be.
I can do something this week since I haven't done a recipe in a while. 
Hey all,

How is everyone coming along on their challenges?

I am done with everything...except....the last 3 words of the brain bender I can't figure out... 
Hi guys.  I haven't done so well this week.  I did the brain bender minus a few words.  I'll try to post a recipe tomorrow and get my points together.  Hopefully we can have our spreadsheet submitted by Friday.  Is everyone still hanging in there???
Hi Jen,

Well I hope this is considered a motivational stmt...because this is what I wrote.... he he he...

I have found to make yourself happy in life,

....you should never be without laughter,

....have a dream to strive for,

....be willing to take chances,

....don't ever give up,

....and have the support of someone that loves you, 

This is my fav website on Heart Diseases: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/artic le/007188.htm

My statement of the week:  If you are having a lousy workout or day, keep going, don't stop until you are done and tomorrow is another day. (Yep! I am having one of those days!)

As for the brain bender... yeah! I only got one, pretty sad from my part. Sorry!

Week 7 Challenge ~ Emerge a Butterfly!!!  Thursday, 10/19 - Wednesday, 10/25

So, what's up for week 7 ~ Emerge A Butterfly??? 

It's the Grand Finale ~ Game Plan Week!  A chance to look back and note the changes in our plans!  Plan for the Upcoming Holidays!  Figure out how to continue our Journey!

Ready to read all about it and pick up your Week 7 challenge and parts here!  No points sheet for week 7!  

The Points!  This week is a little Different!  This week we're not doing points by part! 

  • In Part 3, we ask you to email your brain bender answer to brain.bender@hotmail.com for a trick or treat!  The Games Coordinators will give your bonus points for the brain bender to your scorekeeper.
  • In Part 8, we would like you to share your "Game Plan" and post it on the Team Submission Thread for a trick or treat!  The Games Coordinators will give your bonus points to your scorekeeper.
  • No points for Part 2 ~ it's just some fun information and quizzes that look back over the games
  • No points for Parts 1 and 5 ~ it's all about you and your goals!  Do you want to take a minute to look back at your goals when you started.  See how far you've come?  Maybe plan a bit for the future?
  • No points for the rest of the Parts like Part 4 Main Dish Recipes, Part 6 Googled Links, and Part 7 Motivation Statements ~ thought we would share the submissions from everyone.  You can bookmark these for later when you have more time to peruse or want a new recipe to try?
Need the New, Updated & Current Games DirectoryTeam Roster?



pssst!  1 last leetle thing! If you are still participating in the Challenge, then you have won!  Perhaps you even learned a little more about what you like and dislike, what you enjoy, and perhaps you set a few new goals.  Perhaps you discovered new tools and the wealth of health, nutrition and exercise information available here at calorie-count and on the net.  Perhaps you met a new friend or two, strengthened your friendship with old friends,  enjoyed the journey together. 

The really gr8 news!  The games may be over but we don't have to part!  We look forward to seeing you around calorie-count for a long time to come :)

Cheers, United2gether, Garnet77, Kalkette, Beanie1125 ~ your Friends & Games Coordinators :)
Sorry for the late update guys - we are in the middle of hubby's medical testing right now!

I did everything this week and emailed all the words for the brain bender, so I got all the points.
Oh wow! I spaced and missed finishing week 6 and turning in my points sheet--sorry, guys!

Here is part 6:
http://www.healthcare.ucla.edu/vital-signs/ar ticle-display?article_id=409

And part 7:
Eating healthier and exercising is not only so much better for you, but the planet and those around you. Healthier food usually strays from big business, and tends to support organics, and local businesses (as well as local farmers too). These companies use less harmful pesticides and chemicals in their products, as well as less packaging since the product doesn't need to travel as far, and hence, less fuel and air pollution. The more you exercise, the less you might have to rely on driving or gas consumption, because you would be more prone to walk somewhere or ride a bicycle. The healthier you are, the healthier the planet is.

*I looked at the brain bender for this week, but did not finish it, and I completely forgot to email my answers in for the week 5 one.... blah.
Also, I don't know if I can get the full points for challenges from this week since I was late, but I entered in the full point amount in case I can.  Thanks :)
*yay* nicole :)

go ahead and wrap up with week 7 for your trick or treat :)
Hey guys!  I am a little sad that this is the end of our CC challenge!  I posted my holiday statement on the team submission thread and I have already emailed my brain bender for this week.  I guess that's it for the points!

I will be leaving tonight for the final appointment in Atlanta and wanted to get everything in early.  Hope everyone is doing well - I'll check in on Thursday when I get back.  Can't wait to see the final scores!!!!

I'm interested in participating and found the link to here on another thread about that subject...is it too late now to join in?

If it is, when does the next series begin, and where can I get info?

Looking at dates on other messages, seems like this thread is from late last year...feel free to respond, but I will keep looking as well

Thanks for your help!

Cindy
