    5 people X 4 challenges +20 points right?

    1 extra for each that posts a pic would = 25 points max

    1 team point if all complete the challenges =26 max

    so a possiblitly of 26 points right? i'm confused to how we are adding these up

    You earn 1 extra point per challenge if your whole team completed each challenge so a possibility of 29 points.

    Does that help?

    You can add 1 point PER challenge your whole team completed.
    So a possible 4 extra points

    This week if you are missing a team member you can still earn your total points, we will find you a replacement but I don't think it is fair that you lose points because they quit.

    Week 1

    Green- 27 Points
    We each earned one point for our challenges and because our whole team completed our challenges for the week we earned one more point per challenge and we had 3 team members with before pic posts.

    Blue

    Pink

    Purple

    Red

    Yellow

    Orange

    Black


    Please just copy and post, I am going to try to make a cool little spreadsheet but I am having trouble pasting my Excel on here..Any Ideas??

    Tomorrow we will add a point to the team with the highest weight loss.


    Good Luck everyone tomorrow, I know I am nervouse I haven't peeked all week!

    If you copy and paste your Excel spreadsheet into Word and format to seperate columns into tabs then you should be able to copy and paste the info from Word into here without losing the effect of your table... in theory anyways. If you need a hand with it msg me and we'll figure it out.

    You all are doing AWESOME! Congrats on the weight loss and inches, too :)

    Starting SAHMU Weight 141
    Week 1 Weight 141

    I'm not having a good day, in fat the last few days have been tough, and I think I've figured out why.

    Here's the deal: I'm an emotional eater. I eat when I'm happy, sad, angry, bored, celebrating, mourning, whatever, whenever I eat. At least, I ate. Since starting my healthy eating lifestyle 8 weeks ago I've lost 24.2 lbs (yay!) and have completly overhauled my eating habits. And my taste buds have changed as a result of this. I no longer enjoy overly salty, sugary or fatty things. My mouth and body knows this - my brain does not.

    Last weekend we had my son's first bday party and I tried to cheat. I really did! I wanted to chow down on chips, soda and sweets but everytime I tried to I ended up switching to water, fruits and veggies cuz it tasted better. Even last night I had some salt and vinegar crispers (15 crackers=90cal. not bad) but immedaitely afterwards had to brush my teeth cuz my mouth felt dirty from all the salt. So I know that this is a good thing. I'm happy that I've made these changes and I'm thrilled with the resilts and can't wait to lose more weight.

    It seems my body and brain are at an impasse. My body says healthy, clean foods; my brain says "go get a big mac! you deserve it!". All I can say is this, I'm not going to listen to my fat brain, I'm going to listen to my getting-less-fat body. But in the meantime, I sure do miss my old friend Junk Food. I guess what I need to do is find a reward system that is non-food based. But all the best rewards I know are all the worst foods out there!!! ARGH!!!

    Any suggestions on ways to reward myself that won't destroy my healthy eating efforts? I'm not yet to the point where I want to buy new clothes/shoes because I still have a lot to lose. No sense wasting money. I'd rather wait until I'm down at least another size before going on a spending spree. Please help!!!!

    I wanted to let you all know that I'm going to be gone from tomorrow until next Wednesday on vacation at DisneyWorld. I won't have access to the message boards to post anything, but I will have my iPhone to still log in and do my food/exercise diary. But, I wanted to let you know that I will be doing the cardio and strength challenges daily. I talked to my DH this morning and he's even going to do them with me...which I'm sure the people in the hotel room below us will LOVE, lol!

    I'll have to see about the sleep challenge and let you know on Thursday morning, as well as my weigh in since we don't get home until Wednesday night.

    I already posted my emotional and recipe challenges on the pink team's board.

    Not too bad, but I feel better and have been working my butt of in the cardio dept. Hoping the slower weight loss is from muscle gain. :)
