    Happy Birthday Faith!!! It does sound like some nice plans laid out...We'll just see what the scale says on Wednesday. I am a bit discouraged myself. I've lost some motivation since the weigh-in.

    I just finished walking and working...supposed to go out and reconcile with some friends that de-friended 1 1/2 years ago. My hubs set this up and I'm not really happy about it....Friends don't act like that and I feel like I can't really be bothered with it.:ohwell:

    I'm off tomorrow and I would like to try the Birkam yoga ago for a good burn...I work the day shift on Monday; so, no laying around eating and drinking for me:happy:

    Ive been eating a lot of crap. I think I mightve had a migraine yesterday. I didnt workout but I did plant some flowers before the rain. Today is much better. already done my turbo fire and am eating ok. Im going grocery shopping in a bit when my girls nap. Hoping to get some good food, mostly grillin stuff I think. Its supposed to be a good week weather wise :smile:

    Kim: Did you get to do your Bikram Yoga today? How did it go with your "friends" Saturday night?

    Faith: lol, way to keep that cake off places it doesn't belong. I'm sure that walk will be a good offset to the birthday celebrations.

    Shannon: I hope your head is feeling better. Congrats on getting your workout in already. My biggest problem is having to wait until nighttime to do my workout, then I sometimes talk myself out of it.

    Britt, I am way too hungover to do anything today...you have to be very hydrated to do the yoga because the room is sooo warm...I am going to try tomorrow or Tuesday

    I do too usually, the weekends I have a lot more leeway. I treasure sleep and oftentimes think sleep is more important than working out. Lately ive been sleeping horribly anyway so what does it matter.

    How did the muscle busters fair this week? I will probably break even - or - have a small loss. We shall see tomorrow.

    I did alright...I was moving a lot but didn't eat all that well. I made cookies Saturday so those have been around -bad idea. I doubt I'll have much of a loss, if any, but we'll see in the morn.

    I regrouped Sunday, Monday and today...we will see if it's enough:ohwell:

    I "think" (fingers crossed) I'm going to have a pretty good loss this week finally. I hope I don't jinx it and go up a bunch over night for some reason :(

    Oh crap, I just realized I have to wake up a few hours early tomorrow. I hope that doesn't mess with my weigh in. Ugh.

    I was going well but it has jumped up this morning. See how I go tomorrow. :blushing:

    Faith, if you had all that sushi...maybe, it's water weight...drink lots of water

    Brit, try and go to bed early....ha, my son was having so much trouble falling asleep last night, I gave him melatonin...maybe, you can try some as well

    I am feeling good about tomorrow...I am not eating past 7:00 PM and drinking lots of water

    Connie, your new picture looks soooo good...you can tell that you've lost weight compared to the other one

    I am really hoping for a rally tomorrow, Team Muscle Busters!!!

    I have some melatonin if you want it. A whole bottle! It doesnt work for me.

    I just had an itty bitty cookie but nothing else late. Horrible eating today but we'll see if theres any effect in the morn.

    Im not sure im helping this team much currently. If I get to stay my goal is no fast food for june...that will help me greatly.

    Looks like we're doing pretty good so far this week...maybe we'll pull off the win this week?
  • nisijam5
    nisijam5 Posts: 9,964 Member
    I'm down 1.2 lbs this week...but, will post later...I'm thinking we got this one too...I am waiting on Tamara to come and get weighed


    So, far...it looks like Connie or Brit have the highest % of weight loss...I still have to plug numbers in the spreadsheet...but, it would be nice to throw some power around
  • nehtaeh
    nehtaeh Posts: 2,849 Member
    That would be awesome!! I feel like I'll always be on the verge of elimination, but if my team keeps winning I might be able to stick around.

    Hmm, so if we win this week that means I'm the lucky charm :laugh:

    healthymomwannabe Posts: 252 Member
    Oooh, we DEFINITELY have this one in the bag! Woohoo! All members on the other team have maintained or gained, except for 1 person. And they only have one more person to weigh in. Sad that many of them had a tough week..... but YAY us!! :bigsmile:

    Time for the MUSCLE BUSTERS to throw some power around! :smokin: LOL!

    Fantastic job, everyone! :flowerforyou:

    Connie, you were so close to winning the challenge...great loss

    Britt, I don't know what your thinking as far as the rewards go; but, I don't think that I will need immunity. I plan to continue to step up my game. I have been exercising better, eating better and it's my work weekend. I should be OK.
  • brit1329
    brit1329 Posts: 293 Member
    Yay, we won this week!!

    Anyone have any suggestions on the rewards? As of right now I'm thinking the .5 lb advantage for me and the .5 lb disadvantage for the other team, but I'm open to some other ideas.
  • healthymomwannabe

    Brit, I like your choices! I'd say go for it! What does everyone else think?

    Connie

    Sounds like a good idea, that'll swing the weigh ins by 1 pound.
  • nisijam5
    nisijam5 Posts: 9,964 Member
    Brit, I think you should do whatever you think is best for you. You have the 0.5 lb advantage which is a huge advantage for next week. So, the other three options are:

    Sticking the others with 0.5lb
    Immunity to someone you want to protect
    Or - I like the idea of changing the weigh-in date for either Mama or Irish (sorry, Connie) 'cause I think they can easily drop 2 lbs. I don't think the 0.5 lb is really going to do much to them as a team. Someone could weigh-in on Sunday morning right after the weekend - or - earliest Saturday morning. We could gamble on getting more that way.

    The reward for next week is to pick a player from the other team. I'm so hoping that one of us gets it.
  • brit1329

    Alright, I think I'm liking the change weigh in date for someone on the other team. I think we could end up with a better advantage than the .5 lbs, but who? Kim, you suggested Mama or Irish. Is Irish still on the other team or moved to the 2 chance group? What weigh in date do you suggest. I notice Mama said she was at 158 on Monday, so maybe Mon. or Tues.?
  • nisijam5
    nisijam5 Posts: 9,964 Member
    You have the opportunity to change the weigh-in date for yourself or one other person

    Must be last least 3 days after prior weigh-in for other person...weigh in on Wednesday...Saturday morning is the earliest
    Any day for yourself
    You may opt to leave it as it stands

    Your right about Irish...

    So, from looking at the chart, you need to pick someone really consistent...I think Evailtryst, Accountant or Mama are all good bets...Heather will weigh in after her trip.

    That's my input...anyone else have ideas?

    Brit, tell hubs you get extra sleep next week!!! You broke the plateau!!

    It's hard to say. Anyone know what they are all up to? It seems most people have higher weigh ins after the weekend, or during. Maybe stick someone with a Sunday weigh in...but who?
