Anyone who is new here & were not here for the Fall Challenge & would like to start the Winter Challenge, now is the time to choose your teams if you go to 5% Winter Challenge page you will see where you can join the team you want, just click on it. Then the leaders can even out the teams, it is a big enough job so they need time to do it, so jump on in now, you will be so glad you did once January rolls around.5

Yikes! I think I woke up in a different state. Today it was 40 degrees in my atrium yard, and right now it's 36 degrees and RAINING! No, no, no. It can't rain on top of all that snow out there. By this time next week "they" say the high temp will be 4 degrees. Nutty.
So now I get to head out into the rain to check on the cats and do the feeding. Ick. Good thing I got new insulated rain boots for Christmas.
Happy Tuesday almost Wednesday, everybody!3 -
Merry Christmas ❣ I'm getting excited about the Challenge. I'm really going to need it. I picked "any team" and it will be like Christmas again when I find out which team I get.
Have a great day everyone. 😀2 -
It's 42 with a high of 65 and rainy until 11AM. Axe Sharpening: The right plan provides the path to results.

Today's training plan is 45 min walk this evening. Feeling better but still taking my sinus cold meds and not pushing it like the doctor said. Went yesterday for a meds check but asked her about my sinus cold while I was there.2

Happy Tuesday! Almost finished with my goal plan for 2022 regarding my health and fitness. I don't have focus on nutrition, just track to make sure I'm not eating over. I eat the same meals and snacks, so that makes it easy. I'm focusing on fitness this year. Both ST and miles, be it walking and biking. I'm keeping a l daily log of miles and reps.
@Retired_Sue,. I'm glad I took the break. I feel more geared up for the new year and my health goals too. Can't wait for the next challenge to start! We had to upgrade the electric when we got A/C 20 years ago and that was super expensive. I can say from living in Wisconsin, you get get by without it, but here in North Carolina, A/C is a must. It can get so humid and sometimes the constant 90 degree weather in the summer, you just can't breathe well. For Christmas, we had 73 degrees!! I love it, and my husband hates it. LOL3 -
Here in TX we hit 90 a few days ago but will have a low of 20 in another few days. 😁
Looking forward to the start of the challenge.2 -
@marilynWtx, that is some kind of crazy weather swing!! I thought our 60's to blizzard was off the rail but you got us beat!! Still no snow here in SoCo, mtns getting some. Anyone on a well keeps a tight eye on the amount of moisture, we need to refill that big ole hole in the ground with our years supply!!
Sliding our luggage in and getting our Boarding Passes filled out ...soon to be taking off for the Winter 5% Challenge...are you packed and ready to head off to see the world..such an adventure!!

@HerbsandMore - You're welcome! Cooking the turnip in the microwave sure saves all the peeling and cutting of the raw turnip and does save time. Enjoy.
@ForeverFitNHealthy - We're a bit like Wisconsin - we can survive without A/C - have managed to do it for years - but with the summers becoming more hot and often humid our bedrooms - all upstairs - can get very warm for sleeping at times so it would be nice to have it. Hubby feels the heat more than I do so he's find it easier to sleep at night when it's really hot and be more comfortable during the day too. And the nice thing is that if we don't need it, we don't have to turn it on.
Our weather is pretty typical although it's a bit warm with temps just above 0 C (32 F). Fine with me - we're having a new furnace installed tomorrow afternoon so it will be easier to have the heat off for a few hours if it's not too cold outside. We do have portable electric heaters that we can use to keep our family room warm.
Getting a few last minute details worked out on my team so we'll be ready to take on passengers later this week! Have a great day!4 -
Happy Tuesday everyone! It's a beautiful day here today. My daughter says hello to all of you. My family played monopoly yesterday and we all had so much fun! My daughter was the game winner. I've been for a walk and I feel great! I'll be doing some dancing after supper. Have a great day, everyone! Take care and stay safe.3

I have no idea if I am on a team for the Winter Challenge. Where should I look to find out?1

Good Evening Everyone!
It's snowing!
Anyways today was weigh-in Day and gained 4.75 lbs. Almost all I lost over the last two weeks. Oh well it's the holidays and I will enjoy then get back on track. Met with my newest boss to go over something's. We will be meeting a couple more times before he leaves to finish details. He even plans to buy me a cheap bike. He admitted as well that he was interested in me but since I have a man he will respect that. Well I am glad that he will because otherwise I would have had to turn down the jobs he has for me. The new Christmas ornament has been chosen for next year and I have enrolled in classes at home for nutrition and fitness. Lots going on in the new year and need to plan better so I don't get overwhelmed. Most of my stuff is flexible. I just don't like feeling like I am not giving my full attention to everything. I have till Monday to get everything in order and planned for success.4 -

WOW You are all busy!! I LOVE THAT!!
If you've not chosen a team PLEASE DO SO Immediately. If one doesn't chose a team, they don't get assigned one. Most of you know what team you joined, but what if you are not quite sure if you actually did join it?
TO double check please click on the team you signed up for. After that to easily find your name (Including under the Any team" option) in your upper right hand corner you'll see 3 dots one on top of each other. Click on that, you'll than see on the right hand side a yellow/orange line down below. Scroll down to that line and TADA it's a post you put (This is good to do when searching on any feed you made a post). If you do not see the orange line, please make sure you typed your name correctly, and or since most teams are only 2 pages at the most, please scroll down through them to see if you had chosen the team. If not, and you hadn't any other one (PLEASE CHOSE ONLY ONE TEAM) than sign on up for it.
As CLs(Challenge leaders) some will be known as Captains (LOL We are having fun) and other leaders, most teams are ready FOR YOU!! Only 1 or 2 have a few tweaks to do. Starting on Thurs you'll start seeing your invites!!! WHERE TO FIND THEM? NOTE: STARTING ON THURS some members will be a little bit later, so PLEASE KEEP AN EYE Under ANNOUCMENTS Up above for further info.
TO FIND YOUR INVITE: When you go to GROUPS it'll be right there. WOOHOO HAPPINESS ABOUNDS!!
We've been getting a smidgen or so of snow almost daily. LOL It really doesn't add up, but it's PURDY!! And the ground has been white awhile.

Here's what I said on the news feed.
Was hoping to catch up on e-mails and such, but it will have to wait one more day. My dog Sophie who does not do well with fireworks or earthquakes is being a nervous Nellie about the wind blowing the rain into the window. That's right, people. Right now at 11:15pm Alaska Standard Time, it is 40 degrees and raining. Not nice.
Thank goodness I don't have to go anywhere tomorrow. Here's hoping I can get down the hill to Ellie's place, or there's gonna be a bunch of cranky cats.

I was on SP for 11 yrs. I joined one of the 5% Challenge teams (Spring 2021) with the Shooting Stars. Are there any S.S. challenge team members here? Initially, I'd joined MFP the minute I heard SP was going to close. Life got busy for awhile, but I am back and logging in daily. I'm so glad to see there are groups and this challenge team being active. YAY! I see I need to embrace the change instead of only being disappointed by SPs end.
Happy New Year everyone! Looking forward to the support of team members again.1 -
It's 33 feels like 25 with a high of 48 for today. Axe Sharpening: You are the company you keep, be sure you're surrounded by winners.~~~Jenna Fail 1st Phorm Elite Athlete Happy Last Wednesday of 2021. Fitness quote for today: My goals are set PAIN be by guest.~~~gymaholic Motivational quote for today: Begin each day with positive thoughts and a fresh new mindset.~~~unknown Closed all rings on my Active 4 and had 14,473 steps yesterday. Today's training plan is either 10 min Strength EMOM (5 sets) with 5 min rest then 10 min EMOM (Same Minute) and then Core to finish up 3 rounds 1 min of each or I might do in the gym 18 min EMOM (3 sets) then rest 2 min and 12 min EMOM (4 sets). The workout I decide to do will depend on how I feel as of now I'm feeling better.1
