    Yes, Option 1 got the most votes, so it's one elimination per week for the next nine weeks. So next Sunday (July 10th) someone will be eliminated, so keep up the workouts and watch those calories! :drinker:

    Last week's challenge was to complete at least four 30 minute workouts. Keep up the good work!

    This week's challenge is to add to your workouts a new arm exercise of your choice. I'll be adding tricep dips because when I wave goodbye to people my underarms wave a second time. :laugh:

    I think I will do some Jillian Micheals DVDs and some elliptical for the upper body...I've been doing the C25K and walking a lot...so, this is a good challenge for me.

    My 4 year old had surgery today, not sure if I will get around to exercising or not. I feel horrible. Actually I think I WILL exercise. I think it will help me to feel better.

    That is a good attitude!!! Exercise will not change anything about the surgery; but, will let off some steam for you.

    I am just waiting on Brit and Debbie. Not sure :huh: if Debbie is posting when she comes back or tonight, my guess is later. I think she is going to be back on Saturday, the 9th. Does anybody remember what she said?

    Either way, I don't think the results will get posted tonight since I will be going to bed in about an hour.

    Stay strong this week. We will be down to the final 7 fighting to stay in this comp. I will be on vacation the weekend of Aug 3rd and lushy sister will be back. Can I drink while on a treadmill? Heather, I might have to get a peddle pub for our yard.:love:

    Hello everyone,

    Hope it's all going well!

    I am off to my work colleague's hen party weekend this weekend so I will do my weigh-in tomorrow friday 8/7/11 at about 8am GMT, so only about 24 hours ahead - I hope that's ok with everyone. I will try and upload the picture at the same time too, although my laptop is being bananas at the moment!!!

    I am looking forward to this week's challenge. I have been needing to work on my arms this will be the perfect motivation to do so. I did a series of weight strength training today.

    This must be very stressful, when I'm sad or upset I always find that going to the gym really helps. I hope you will be able to hang in there

    Sorry that I posted on the wrong thread...

    I am running a different competition on another thread and must have accidently posted here...:blushing: Anyway, I was this week's big winner of the challenge. My team won 0.5 lb advantage for next week and I won the "Survive the Holiday" challenge by losing over 1% of my body weight. Of course, the weekend is approaching and all hell breaks loose. I am hoping that I don't screw up the weigh in on this challenge.

    Hope that everyone is doing well on this thread. I have baseball tournaments that my two boys are in this weekend. I am thinking I can ride my bike there - or - do the C25K to get to the fields. Either way, I have to combat the sitting I will be doing all weekend. Of course, it will be 90 degrees and hot, hot, hot

    I haven't seen a spreadsheet for this challenge; but, I haven't looked super hard either...do you need help posting to the site? If you want to PM me the information, I can post for you. It's super easy.

    Is anyone else doing the C25K?
