Alright ladies and gents! Week 1 went AMAZING! I'm so proud of all you! And if you didn't reach your goal or didn't lose any lbs, don't worry! Water weight and other fluid balances can cause an incorrect weight. And if that's not the case, don't fret! Hard work ALWAYS pays off!
before I announce this week's challenge I want to reminder everyone of one detail:
THE 7-WEEK CHALLENGE IS A CLOSED GROUP. So if you're wanting to join this challenge, I'm sorry but we finalized teams over a week ago. It's hard enough figuring out stats for 100 people and it's harder when people "weigh-in" on this board whom I've never even seen before. So if you're not registered for this group and you are not in a group, I'm sorry but you'll have to wait until the next challenge because it's just too difficult to change teams around every week. THE BRIGHT SIDE: after this challenge, we will be having another challenge starting soon after. Stay posted!
Week 2 Challenge is.... (drumroll please)....
Each member of each team must burn AT LEAST 700 calories TOTAL this week!
Conditions?
-Keep track of calories burned, they must add up to a MINIMUM of 700 total exercise calories.
-These calories must be burned by exercise rather than by a deficit of calories.
-The team with the highest number of total calories this week WINS.
-The 700 calories can be burned in multiple sessions, your weekly total must be 700 cals or above.
-The more you burn, the higher your chance of winning this week!
-The calories counted will be from Monday, March 7 - Saturday March 12
Last note: I'm figuring out the stats for WEEK 1 and will probably be working on them for a couple of days. Expect the results around Tuesday at the latest.
This is the official weigh-in board of WEEK 2!
So be sure to post you CW:Current Weight and your SGW: Saturday goal weight or send them to your captain!
Thanks!
Get ready for Saturday!!

This will be way easier than not eating chocolate! horray.

Welcome to Week 2 everybody!! I agree - this week will be MUCH easier than banning chocolate. I usually burn 1500 or so calories per week and this week I starting training for my 10K. Bought new running shoes today - hooray! Ive almost run right out of my last pair.
Good luck to all!0 -

i posted on the other thread that i was shooting for 127 but i've had a pretty bad weekend so decided to modify my goal.. hope thats ok! also its my birthday on wednesday and i want cake! lol xxx0 -
Splendid challenge! Will be tough for me this week as I have a few nights out planned, but I shall try to make more effort after my chocolate fail last week. Setting a smaller weight loss target for that reason though, given the temptations of eating out and lack of exercise opportunity, to avoid disappointment.
Start weight: 179.5lbs
Week 1 weight: 177.5lbs (-2lbs)
SGW: 176.5lbs
What does being a team captain involve? I guess Team UK/Europe needs a new one :S0 -
This challenge is going to be a lot easier than the no chocolate. I didn't do very good on that one.0

I like this challenge! It won't be hard if I stick to my running schedule- 2 4-mile runs and one 6-mile run should get me to 700 calories burned.
