45 minutes of exercise, sorry struggling with everything. I will log steps tomorrow, but may not be enough for baseball.

No problem - even a daily 45 minutes is fantastic, and gets you a double every time. I'm hoping that the daily baseball commitment has helped you, so let me know if it has or has not.
Any way we can help with the struggles?0 -

Weight is slowly coming off. I have an occasional slip up (life happens) but I don't let it derailed me for day or the week. This has got to be a lifestyle change. Keep up the great work team.2 -

This cold and cough needs to leave so I can get back to working on me. I am so tired, didn't sleep good the past 2 nights, I am not drinking all my water and picking here and there (even though under calories).
Steps from 4/18: 7784 not enough for baseball, but still trying to get some steps in.4 -

7784 is certainly enough for baseball! 7500 is a single. Way to go - and I hope you feel better SOON. I have been fighting a cold this week too, but yours sounds nastier. You'll get going when it is gone. Hugs!0 -
BASEBALL HAS BEEN THE MODS CHALLENGE FOR THE PAST 2 WEEKS. PARTICIPATION ON THE TEAMS PLAYING HAS BEEN GREAT.
CAPTAINS AND TEAM MEMBERS! DO YOU WANT TO CONTINUE FOR THE REMAINING 2 WEEKS OF THIS MONTH ON F2F? YOUR MODERATORS WANT TO KNOW!
IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE (OR JOIN), THERE CAN BE SOME SIMPLE CHANGES:
THE CAPTAIN OF THE BASEBALL TEAM DOES NOT HAVE TO BE THE CAPTAIN OF YOUR F2F TEAM. IF THERE ARE INTERESTED PLAYERS AND THEY ARE COMMITED ENOUGH TO TRACK THEIR EXERCISE, THAT CAN WORK. THERE IS ONLY ONE SIMPLE REPORT TO MAKE EVERY DAY – HOW MANY MINUTES AND/OR HOW MANY STEPS EACH PERSON HAS MADE THAT DAY. YOU DON’T EVEN NEED TO FIGURE OUT IF IT IS A DOUBLE, TRIPLE, OR WHATEVER, UNLESS YOU WANT TO. DAILY REPORTS GO ON THE MODERATOR’S CHALLENGE BASEBALL THREAD. MODERATORS WILL TAKE CARE OF FILLING OUT THE SCORE SHEET. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE CHALLENGE IS THAT EVERY PLAYER HAS TO REPORT THEIR EXERCISE EVERY DAY. IT’S A GREAT TOOL FOR COMMITMENT.
SO LET US KNOW IF YOU AND YOUR TEAM WANT THIS CHALLENGE TO GO ON FOR 2 MORE WEEKS. IF NOT, WE’LL COME UP WITH SOMETHING ELSE! (FAIR WARNING)

So, as Greg has said in his inimitable emphatic style, we could keep the baseball game going for the next 2 weeks if we want to. I'm happy to keep going with the stats since I have to put them on the scoring spreadsheet in any case. I have found the game to be a fun way to kick myself in the butt and not skip any days even if it is minimal. I also like that both steps and workout minutes count so those who don't count steps can participate. So I'm a "yes" vote.
Please post some messages with your thoughts! We can change players if anyone wants in or out, or we can request a different challenge.0 -
Id be in for continuing the baseball game, also if it does continue I'd like to jump in 😊1

As promised ... here are my Four Circles (and repeat of instructions ... who else is going to put theirs Out Here?A Four minute Four Circle goal setting tool
Adapted from Steve Chandler's book "100 ways to motivate yourself"
The Four Circle Method is a game changer if you suffer with the thought "I have so much weight to lose and it will TAKE FOREVER."
This is a great tool that helps you plan what you will do today to get you to that far away goal. You see, most of us are just disconnected from the smaller version of ourselves. We can't believe that the little things we do today MATTER. We think things like, "This bite won't hurt" or "I’m done… weighing 150lbs will take forever so give me a cookie."
The Four Circles basically trains your brain to believe how important today's tiny steps are. Yep...drinking the water matters versus our usual thought of drinking the water isn't enough.
Instruction: Start by drawing four circles on a piece of paper (see example below). The circles represent one year, one month, one week, and today. Inside each circle write down what you want. It can be anything. Start with the one year circle first.
The top left circle is the one year goal.
The top right breaks that goal down into a smaller piece, a monthly goal.
The bottom left is an even smaller piece, a weekly goal.
The bottom right is EVERYTHING you are going to do today that will help you reach your goal.
Now tell your team and share your goals. Every day matters. What will you do today?
It would be great if you shared this on the Week 3 Challenge thread too - there are few examples, and this is a good one!0
