    Oh dear teammates- I have to drop out- please get a substitute. I fell on the ice last night, then passed out in the middle of the night when I got up to go to the bathroom. Did a lot of damage here. Going to urgent care to see how bad it all is. Have to have the sidewalk clear before I can get to car.
    There's not going to be any kind of exercises for me. I need a walker or a cane at the very least.
    Can I still stay in the loop? I will cheer you all on.

    Oh my gosh, Cindy. I am so sorry. I hope everything is ok. Please definitely keep us updated. :'(

    If I haven't been replaced, I think I can stay in. I will try to do the chair exercise video tomorrow. Modify my movements as needed. Nothing is broke. Badly bruised. I won't be doing any long walks or steps. I'm sure that I'll be able to swim on Monday and Wednesday.Egads! Be careful on the ice!

    Reached our destination which bumped us back up to 3rd!! Great job Team 2 Beat!

    WOW! That's awesome. I was feeling kind of down about our progress. Let's get those challenges done! :D

    Ok Team 2 Beat, we are doing great! 3rd place at the moment, let's hang on to it! I've maxed out on my minutes and challenges so that means I get to rest tomorrow without feeling guilty. YAY! I did pretty well this week with my eating and exercise. Except for my cheat day where I ALWAYS go overboard for some reason (although I blame it on TOM this time around). I really need to rein it in. (3000 cals? :s ) Anyway, I'm still hoping for a loss when I weigh in tomorrow.

    @Cindyk4919 I'm sorry to read what happened to u! But happy it wasn't worse.

    I did the chair video. I had to modify some of the movements. This will be my go to workout video for my recovery. That combined with some gentle exercises and I'm ready for walker races! Yes I went from kickboxing on Tuesday evening to using a walker.

    About the masquerade ball- I didn't find it Creepy at all, but then I barely looked at the masks. The costumes were amazing and brilliant!
    So tickets to the ball are $1500. The costumes would be twice that. This is not for the average person.
    I have thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Venice. What a colorful place!

    @cindy4919. Sorry to hear about the fall and thankfully nothing broken. Take it easy to start, I speak from experience you don't want to push healing.
    I am finally back at the gym today and it feels great. Hopefully I won't be too sore tomorrow. I signed up for a group personal trainer program. Starts Tuesday twice a week for 90 minutes. Need to get my but moving to be in a better shape for my sons wedding in June
    Oh ya I did the videos yesterday and finished my 5 days of water.

    We are so quiet lately, I went home after the gym and convinced my husband to take a walk this afternoon. we went for 4 miles, took us about an hour and 15, chilly outside but so glad we did that.
    I just looked at the spreadsheet, we are still in third, and not that far away. keep up the great work

    @Cindyk4919 Sorry about your injury but so glad it wasn't worse. Your a trooper for staying with us & doing what you can exercise wise! Inspiring!
    Finally got the spreadsheet updated for the week, I'm hoping to be better at daily logging this week.

    I feel a little selfish not giving up my spot to a substitute, but this challenge has been so good for me. I hope that I'm going to be able to post something every day. I'm a little worried about tomorrow and Wednesday, when I have to hang another set of 24 drapes.

    This is a bummer. Hopefully she shows before 8. I think that is a more than fair deadline since I had said it would be 4 PM. I don't know of any other way to get ahold of someone if they are not logging into MFP. It hurts the team to have an MIA member, so if she doesn't show, we are best off by trying to get a replacement.

    Third place for the week. Nice work getting back up there from last place earlier in the week! We appear to be well within range of pulling our overall place up to third, too! Maybe even higher... :D

    I watched the two short videos and did arm weight exercises this morning, along with some small gentle leg stretches. I can limp along today without the walker! I will use it today at work in order to not be so fatigued at the end of the day. My goal for myself is to walk half that 5k outside on Saturday the completing it on Sunday.
    I found it very interesting to learn the origins of the Iditarod.

    @Cindyk4919 It looks like you are feeling better! I'm so glad!

    Lovin' all the pup pics in this week's challenge post! I'm not sure what my food vice will be for Challenge #3. I'll have to think on it! I'd really love to do the 10.49 trek. *fingers crossed* for good weather on Saturday! I think I'll go for a 5K on Tuesday and Thursday, too!

    Let's do this Team 2 Beat!

    We did it team! I'm so proud of our 3rd place finish! Let's keep it going!

    Like I mentioned before, I had a good week and it showed on the scale. Lost 2 lbs! Yay! Just 13 to go :)

    Ok so as you know, I like to get started on the challenges early. I'm only sorry I didn't log in last night. I could have gotten started on challenge # 1 at the gym today. Didn't log in until I got back. Anyway, I decided to do the 10.49 mile Iditarod indoors on the treadmill because honestly, I'm an indoors person, sad I know. I will probably run it, haven't decided yet. But it definitely won't be all at once. Probably in 2 or 3 segments. I'll get started tomorrow.

    I just completed challenge # 2. I chose the TOTAL BODY BEGINNER WORKOUT because after already lifting weights at the gym, I was in no mood to lift even more weights. I did modify a bit. Because I have diastasis recti, I avoid crunches so I did another ab exercise in place of them. Also, I did the push ups with my hands on a chair since regular push ups are also a no no with DR.

    Challenge # 3 is tough because I really don't have any food vices. I eat pretty clean 6 days a week except for my cheat day. There is nothing I can't do without. I had to think really hard about this one. Anyway, every evening when my husband gets in from work he gives me a stick of sugar free gum. I guess that will be the thing I leave behind. (Although frankly that doesn't weigh anything and really wouldn't lighten my load :D).

    I hope everyone has a great week and we all remain injury and ill free this week so we can bring our best.

    Challenge #1
    I chose the 2.5K frostbite footrace.
    I chose to walk it with my dog today because I have a sciatic pain in my hip and lower back and I'm afraid if I didn't get it done today it may not get done at all.

    About a week ago I ran 11 miles of trails. Too bad I can't count that! I hadn't been for a really long run in months, so I was sore for a couple of days afterwards. It was a beautiful day so I just kept going past the original 5 that I had intended. I think I will do that again. Heavy rain today, though, so it will take a couple of days for it to dry up enough for them to open the trails back up. B)
