    Thanks Melissa! I also added in your 7 points for posting a recipe last week, so you have a total of 154. Added to the chart.

    EVERYONE - please remember to post a summary of your week 3 points for me here so I can add them to the chart. Let me know if you have already added in the recipe post points or not (so I don't add them twice!) Thanks!

    This is for those of us who didn't have as impressive a loss as Pam and Kate did last week :flowerforyou:

    Congrats to our 2 top ten finishers and to the team as a whole. I have to apologize for my weigh in this week. I am completely baffled by this weigh in. I've put in the work and the results are just not showing on the scale. There is no way I've eaten that much in excess. But I know I have to try and get my sodium intake under control. I will try my best for better results scale wise this week!

    You do NOT have to apologise! Keep going and your perseverence will pay off (see my quote in the post above!) Never worry about how weigh ins affect our team. We all have our good weeks and our bad weeks and I think I can speak for all us Sharks ... we are just so glad you are part of our team and that you CONTINUE to put in all the effort you have been doing. You may well be a Top Ten this week :bigsmile:

    Looking forward to celebrating your weight loss with you soon. :flowerforyou: :love: :heart:

    Also please let me know if me trying to contribute to the team numbers like min work out and calories reps is hurting more than helping I know i"m not going to be able to hit the calorie burns each week but I am trying to help out as much as possible with reps I can knock those out pretty good :) I don't want to hinder in anyway but It's fun to track keeps me accountable :)

    Kristin (and this goes for Kylie too!) - we are SO glad that you are with us in this challenge. :love: You are putting in your maximum effort and I am glad that this challenge is helping you to keep on track. However, DON'T worry about how your burns/minutes/reps (or lack of) will affect our team. Anything you can give us will help us :flowerforyou: - and the more you can do, the more you help yourself too :bigsmile: - but this week when calculating TEAM GOALS, I did divide our team numbers by 10 (so NOT taking you and Kylie into account). So the minimum I asked everyone to give for the TEAM will be met if we all do that. Obviously, if you would like to help us out a bit and get lots of minutes, burns and reps in then that is FABULOUS and we would all love you for it! But, we know what we need to do even if you are not up to it for a few days. Please don't feel under ANY pressure from us. BUT don't let that be an excuse to "go easy" either :noway: - we want to see you succeed in your goals too :flowerforyou:

    Hope that helps a bit! Have a great week!

    Points Week 3:

    #1 Water - 35/35 pts (M/5, T/5, W5/, Th/5, F/5, S/5, Su/5)
    #2 Sodium - 0/35 pts
    #3 Workout - 20/60 pts(M/5,T/10,W/5,Th/5,F/, S/) 4/6 days
    #4 Bad Habit: 7/7 days
    #5 Good Habit: 3/3 days

    I'm still confused about the points for 4 and 5. Do we get 25 points overall for the challenge, or 25 points for each week.

    #5 Good Habit: 3/3 days

    I'm still confused about the points for 4 and 5. Do we get 25 points overall for the challenge, or 25 points for each week.

    If you successfully complete your week you get a maximum of 50 points i.e. 25 points for completing your good habit and 25 points if you also avoid the bad. If you fail on one of these, it is a -10 points for that habit. That is EACH WEEK. Hope that helps.

    I make your workout points total 25, not 20. Therefore your total (with the 50 for good/bad habits) was 110 points. (You didn't mention encouraging posts (can get 1 point a day here, or any smack talk on another team's page - get 5 points for that. If you did any of these, let me know and I'll add them on.

    Here is a great inspirational quote from an Olympic Gold Medalist:

    Winning doesn't always mean being first. Winning means you're doing better than you've ever done before.

    That is totally okay! I just don't every want any one else to feel like they have to do extra cause I can't keep up! LoL The burns have been coming a little bit easier lately since i"ve had a tad bit more energy thank goodness! Hopefully I can keep it up! Looking forward to this weeks challenge started off good yeseterday will most yesterday and todays results this after noon!


    I seen a remote control flying shark in town yesterday by a mall vendor and it made me think of our team! It was awesome!

    Just remember! If you get a flat tire. we dont get out an slash the other three! So if you slip up one meal or day for eating don't slash your other four tires! Fix the flat and keep going!

    Thanks Kristin! I had a TERRIBLE 'flat' yesterday! (I think I was trying to set a record for how bad a person could eat in a day!) Anyway...I've fixed it and moved on!!! So, I'm gonna be playing catch-up (or atonement!) all week!

    POST FROM SHERI:

    "2 Questions came up that I need to make a clarification on - POINTS TRACKING - ANY BONUS POINTS just leave on the weekly chart - I WILL COPY Them into the Points tracking sheet - I have all the weeks saved until I can get myself caught up - but I will have a separate column on the Points Chart For Bonus Points - the regular weekly points you all can input your teams #'s at the end of the week...Thank You!! 2nd question - ALSO POINTS - Can reps be counted toward your workout minutes for points - Sorrrryyyyy....Just you workout minutes - no reps - HOWEVER this was Not clarified before so your tracking up until NOW is fine how you've been doing it - from here forward please don't count your rep minutes towards your Workout Minutes for points - The WORKOUTS can be double dipped in points and challenge week - but that's it....reasoning....I'm MEAN ;-P And I want to get you to push for those extra minutes whenever you are able to."

    So I have made the changes to the week 3 points I had already posted on the chart - to take off the recipe post points (which Sheri will later add back in.) Your weekly summaries now only need to be the usual, regular items (water, sodium, exercise points - which are ONLY the workouts you have done, not reps etc, good and bad habits, encouragement points and smack talk).

    Just wanted to let you know in case you wonder why your "week 3 points" totals might be 7 or 10 points less than you thought you gained last week!
