    @mamaelf2008 sorry about your FIL. Take care of your family and yourself. We are here for you!
    @120maggie Thanks for the team summary!

    I've got challenge 1 done, challenge 2 done, and challenge 3 almost done. I had a short run after work today and headed out to kickboxing soon. After that.....so honestly I've got some birthday celebrating coming up. Most likely no workout tomorrow, and then Friday will be a late evening at work so I can hopefully get all my lessons prepped and ready for Monday. I'll try to make up for it with a long run on Saturday.

    @cardbucfan - I am trying to think of some place for you to go when you come to visit. There is a really nice boat ride called the Dolly Steamboat tour (https://dollysteamboat.com). My honey and kids did it, and we all enjoyed it. It's not "go go go" but more of a sit back and enjoy the scenery type of event. There is a little "ghost town" on the drive to the Steam boat tour that is nice.

    There is some really nice hiking between Phx and Payson. http://www.alltrails.com/us/arizona/payson

    Have you visited the Lava tubes outside of Flagstaff? That is really neat (it's very cold inside).

    I will try to think of some other things, too. :)

    @mamaelf2008, my thoughts are with you and your family. Big hugs, take care of each other.

    I like the idea of working out in @mamaelf2008's honor. Tonight I will do one extra video for you!

    Hubs and I had our Wednesday walk and shop day. I now have a new suit that I will stay in while doing water aerobics next! (It was kind of hard holding the suit up and jumping or bobbing or whatever at the same time!) We also got in a 6 miler, which we try to hit on Sundays and Wednesdays, weather permitting. I start run camp next Saturday so that'll help put up some good numbers here, too. ;)

    I'm done with Challenge 1, should finish #2 tonight and #3 tomorrow. Woohoo, this is going to be just the push I need to get off my butt more!! <3

    @mamaelf2008, I'm so very sorry for the loss of your father in law. My heart goes out to you.

    I hope the rest of the team is well and had a good Wednesday. Another stressful work day for me, but I managed a walk this morning and a run after work - both with Stella tagging along.

    I finished my 3rd sumo mandarin today. I love those things, so sweet and bigger than a clementine so more satisfying.

    I have a pounding stress headache though so I'm going to wrap it up and go to bed - maybe tucked in with some hot tea or cocoa first - and hopefully get a good night's sleep.

    Hello team.

    So I did technically did the challenge videos 1, 2 and 4 this morning. Will do 3 tomorrow. I say technically because I do no think anyone watching me would have recognized my motions as being what was happening on the video. Except for 1 - stretching is easy. That marching in number 2 was fine - until I had to waving my arms around. I got no coordination. Three - HA!

    The fruit "challenge" - or should I say no challenge. I'm a Floridian! That puppy's done. Not doing well with my diary though. May update that tomorrow.

    Got 2 questions if the Cap'n is around, or anyone else can answer.
    1. Do I need to detail out my exercise time in minutes using comments in the spreadsheet or can I just enter 50 if I walked 30 and did something else for 20?
    2. Do I have to sync entries in my personal diaries for food and exercise. I do not usually log exercise and my food diary upkeep has been slacking lately.

    Sorry Team I only got 45 minutes in today it's a cold misty snow/rain and the dogs didn't even want to be out with it being slightly windy. Back to winter weather here. Will have to get back on the treadmill. I had another orange today 3 days in a row 4 oranges..met my goal for 5 points but I will keep at I love fruit. Only got to check in for a minute tonight, had to bring work home with me. See you all tomorrow.
    Everyone have a great night and keep strong

    No detail on the spreadsheet. Just sum up your activity minutes and give the total. So if I do 60 minutes of Zumba and walk 20 minutes at lunch I enter 80. Logging your food is optional most of the time. But a big help if you are trying to lose!!! Some weeks we will have challenges to stay under your calorie goal for 5 out of 7 days. You set your goal and monitor it. So using MFP for logging makes it easy. But in the previous challenges it wasn't mandatory to use MFP if you have another system.

    Brutal day today for MFP. Travel day yesterday. All day with clients today. Travel day tomorrow but I think I still will get some time in. Friday and the weekend will be really good.

    Team looks really strong. Excited about arriving in China. Woo Hoo.

    New day, not so great sleep, but have a plan to get work-related craziness under some control. I took a nice walk this morning with Stella to clear my head. Onward!
