    Gosh! I thought maybe one more post so I can fill a whole page of just me.... I'm a dummy, will try to get everything in one post from now. Geez!

    Anyway, thought I'd say my calories come from my new HRM Polar FT7... so hopefully accurate. Wish I could use what the treadmill tells me but it's way elevated, darn!

    I'm off tomorrow on a cruise to Alaska, my plan is to log food and exercise daily and on here for calories. Hoping it works out.

    Have a great week and Thanks again for adding me to your boat! :glasses:

    Worked my *kitten* off today.
    8th July- 1069 burned, so doubled is 2138 = 42.7 miles.

    OMG! I'm impressed... and maybe scared!

    That was just a big push for the double day. I felt exhausted after!

    Whatnow50 hasn't updated yet, but we're in different time zones. I'll check in the morning, it's late here.

    I send mine in a private msg after my workout.... 470 calories today. Should I just post them here?

    No no, that's cool, I wasn't sure if you'd left for the boat yet is all.

    Ok. I am an MFP moderator and would like not close this thread.

    Please keep your comments to a positive manner regarding your team members. Support is so very important, tearing down others adds nothing to your weight loss journey.

    As for retorts, these are also not allowed.

    Please keep it civil.

    I am not sending a warning to anyone but if this continues, I will not only send warnings to all, but report it to Mike.

    Thank you for keeping this a safe place for all!

    I don't know if you guys have received my calories for the last few days. Please double what needs to be doubled. Here's my count:

    date: 7/8/11
    calories: 354

    date: 7/9/11
    calories: 1,011

    I was traveling by car the orther days so my last post was on 7/4/11. Now I'm home and back to my schedule.

    Could someone post the link to our new logo? Thanks!

    Hi, sorry I am late in updating, we went our for the day (and totally blew the calories!!) but for double day we moved our boat 408.88 miles.

    Thanks for updating me with your calories everyone, I check here and pm's before updating and if I'm missing someone I do check your status updates to see if there is anything on there to try and keep the calories all on the right days!

    I have messaged to try and get our new team members names on the map, hopefully that will be done when its next updated, even without the double day miles having been added we're still sitting middle of the pack, which show how hard we've all been working!

    Colfii - 500 is a fantastic burn! That's a huge amount of calories to expend during one workout!

    funkyspunky - Good going, the hardest worked for calories are the most valuable. Well done on finding the motivation to get those extra ones done!

    Babydull - on fire, totally awesome!

    Okieworkout - thanks, all updated, that was a huge burn! Wow!


    Once again, thanks everyone for your enthusiasm, we are doing great!

    Sunday game is canceled.

    UPDATED!!!
    Ok

    First sorry about not getting the Sunday game sorted, I ran out of time, plus a few people rightly pointed out that that game was being more about luck and not actually rowing the world.

    SO this weeks games

    TUEDAY is DOUBLE DAY

    THURSDAY IS .............. KIDNAP DAY........ attack a boat again........ same as last time, but the boat under attack can still count the kidnapped person

    SAT is ........... TRIPLE DAY !................. I see that weekends tends to be one of the hardest ones to keep focus and get a good work out in............. so I hope by it being triple day it will give us all time to look at our work outs and PLAN !

    ALSO anyone looking for a new team member or if anyone want to join, please post here so people can get teamed up !

    Hope you are all liking the game !
    PLEASE BUMP

    Lee....




    For 9th July we burnt a total of 10822 calories to move our boat 108.72 miles. Still waiting for the burns for Sunday the 10th to come in, have just sent the miles for the 9th in so our boat should be moving on the next update!

    Sorry I've not been on the ball over the weekend, not been well and have had to take it easy, haven't been to the gym for 4 days, heading back there today to ease back in so hopefully I'll be a better contributor again soon.

    There have been some great calorie burns over the weekend, but need to give a special mention to Tsydow who did an outstanding 2550 for the 10th July. Wow!

    Any suggestions for boats to attack on Thursday will be most appreciated.

    Excellent.
    I hope you are feeling better now.
    How about attacking the lead boat? Seems logical.

    July 10th:

    932 calorie burn is my best estimate.

    I probably did over that but I had to use MFP "lawn mowing" estimation. I use one of those 1900's push mowers with no engine that you have to push pull push pull push pull just to keep it cutting grass. Quite the hour workout. Felt more than the 350 calories it said on here.

    Awesome! Really well done.
    Again a HRM sounds like a good plan for you.

    I won't be able to afford a HRM for a few months at least.
