F2F-WLC CHALLENGES:
- - WEEKLY GROUP CHALLENGE (Challenges hosted by teams for the entire group)
- - MODERATOR'S CHALLENGE (Challenges hosted by the moderators of the group)
- - INDIVIDUAL CHALLENGES (Challenges within teams themselves)

Team Weekly challenges will be announced in later communications

(Note:The team order for challenges follows the team order in the group standing sheet on the spreadsheets)

HOW OUR CHALLENGES WORK:
We have 4 total possible challenges and NONE are mandatory. Our challengers can do none or all it's up to them. So we have...

The F2F Weekly TEAM Challenge - posted each week on Sunday in the announcements by the team who is assigned that particular week (see above for your week). This is for the F2F Group as a whole.

F2F Moderators Challenge/Topic of the week - This challenge is provided each week in the announcements area. One of the moderators will either provide a challenge that will involve anything fitness, health, and nutrition.

Individual Team challenges - these are challenge done within your own team. You can chose daily, weekly, or monthly challenges (weekly seems to work best). You can make this whatever you wish as long as it's health and fitness related.

Note: If for some reason your team is unable to provide the weekly challenge please let me know ahead of time so another team can take your place or so I can provide the challenge.

Good Luck Teams: Please let us know if there is anything wrong or if you notice something that needs to be fixed or modified. Everything seems ready to go for JUNE. Registrations are almost done and we have quite a few new challengers. Make sure you are going into your new team threads to welcome anyone who has started posting. Let’s make our newbies feel welcome and show them some F2F love!!

THANKS, YOUR MODS

    Team Weight No More's Week One Challenge

    yi42hvghnixn.png


    I don't have time. I sit all day at the office. Excuses. That is all they are. If you want something bad enough you will figure out how to make it happen. I have learned that as long as I am moving, I am burning calories. It doesn't have to be a full 30 minutes. Even if you do just 5 minutes at a time it is better than 0 minutes. 5 minutes at a time thru out the day can add up to a really good workout. And likely the hardest part is just getting started. So come on.... Get up off that chair. Trust me, no one will care and you will definately not regret it.

    I have includes some posters of office friendly exercises. Anyone can do them. So come on... Lets do one poster a day. Then, go to your team thread and tell them how you did. There is something for everyone. No excuses. Everyone has 5 minutes. Lets start making being active a habit, even if we have an sedentary job. And captains, hold your team accountable. Ask them everyday, what they are doing to be more active. Lets change our lifestyle one day, one pose at a time.

    My name is Angelina. I am one of the team motivators. This group is the number 1 reason why I will hit my goal in July. 60 pounds down by July 10th will be my 1 year mark. My whole motivation has been my health. I have logged daily for 355 days on MFP. I am so deeply grateful to a stranger that encouraged me to look into F2F. I joined here in August. I follow a plant based plan, gave up sugar, alcohol and caffeine. Started with a 10 minute walking program and just completed a 10K run coming in First place in my age group. (I was the only one in my bracket lol).
    I have practiced yoga faithfully.
    My wife Molly is 100% supportive.
    The below pictures tell the story!

    I will check in later with my daily check in and my goals for this month. It is getting late and I want to get out on the bike today. It is absolutely beautiful out today! Hope everyone has a great day!

    Also-if any of you check the spread sheets for some reason we had a ton of NWIs for this week. When I went to bed last night all the weights but 1 were entered so I am not sure what happened. I did tell the moderators and I am sure it will be corrected.

    Daily check in: Saturday
    Food: logged and on track
    Water: over 64oz
    Exercise & steps: Nothing and under 2,500 steps

    As I posted last night, I took a rest day yesterday. It was nice to relax and do nothing for a change. It was a good day. I have been trying to eat to +2 but haven't been successful with it. I heard on one of the podcasts if I am having a hard time figuring out my +2, to try leaving a few bites on my plate. So I have been doing that. Yesterday I started leaving 1/4 on my plate. Sometimes I have a hard time leaving stuff on my plate, I either forget or just keep eating even when I know I shouldn't. Yesterday and today I have cut the 1/4 off and threw it out. Hopefully, after I do this a while I can leave it on my plate but for now this looks like what I have to do. I was actually sitting on the deck with Mary Kate while she was eating her lunch. She had just come home and was starving. She had a sandwich and doritos. She finished her sandwich and got up to throw out her plate. I asked if she was going to finish her Doritos. She said that she wasn't because she was full. She actually thought I wanted them but I just told her how I would have finished them hungry or not. She thought that was weird. Why would I eat them if I wasn't hungry? She said if she finished them she would feel gross and stuffed. It is funny how different our views are on food. Today I did get a bike ride in. No Kayak as it is windy and there is a small craft advisory. I don't want to paddle somewhere and not get back. I may walk a little later, not sure. I am going to get my step count up today. I need to get up and move a little. I will be happy when I can start PT and see what I am able to do.
    @DananaNanas Still a nice loss! So 3 times a week to the gym didn't work, how about you just try getting there twice and just get on the treadmill for 15 min. Won't be a big time commitment and will get you into the habit of going. How exciting about the basement! Was it finished before or are you redoing an actual basement? Let us know if you need an excused weigh in for when you go away.
    @cyndiesstuff It is so true, we will always be "busy" so we need to figure out a way to carve time out for ourselves and work our plan. I love the exercises you posted. I will be active but not sure what ones I can do yet. I am the most excited about the Yoga and abdominal ones. I have positional vertigo so I have a hard time doing a lot of abdominal exercises.
    @julie8468 I hope things are a little better. Sometimes getting something off your chest to people who aren't connected with your "real life" helps. Hugs! Sounds like you have a great plan for July. I see know reason why you can't reach your goals!
    @CassieGetsFit2013 Nice loss girl!! You're right-back down you go!!
    @hope002 Looks like you maintained for the week. Unfortunately we need the weights in by 11:59 EST. (FTF rules not mine or Cyndies) I was wondering if you wanted to change your weigh in day to Sunday. You seem to be weighing in around then anyway. We could use todays weight as this weeks.
    @Mrsbell8well Looking good in that bikini girl! You are an inspiration! Good luck on that to do list today!
    @carlsoda Love your goals for July! I am so impressed you are doing the Whole 30 again with your daughter! You seemed to learn a lot about what your body can tolerate last time. I am sure it makes it easier on your daughter to have you doing it with her.
    @pacsnc6 Sounds like you are listening to your hunger cues with bringing food home from lunch and skipping dinner yesterday. Nice job! You are getting close to your goals. I don't know why I thought you lived in Canada! Lol! Another little southern bell!
    @bmaison2014 I like your goals for the green challenge! Hope all is going well!

    @nstephenson01 you might also like Dr. Fuhrman’s Eat to live. I loved his super foods especially the GBOMBS. One of my favorite easiest eating plans.

    @ljdanny - congratulations - grand babies are such fun and you chose two of my favorite colors! Glad you son has been cleared to work - it’s been a long haul for him!

    @nstephenson01 -2 to 2 is Phit-n- phat’s hunger scale. Start eating when you get hungry (not starving) and finish when u feel satisfied. I need to learn when I feel satisfied and @sleepymom5 daughter already knows it!! Lucky girl!

    @Mrsbell8well - let me check Adrienes July challenge, I may join you!
