Are we able to join if we just complete the blurpee challange? I don't eat the f/v I need to and I am lucky to get in one a day.
I would still like to do the blurpee challenge.

Yes, you will just count your fruits and veggies daily count as zero.0 -
****Hand up***** Please Miss, can I be excused the burpees? Can't do them as had op on foot & they put too much pressure on it. At gym, I do press-ups (from knees) instead. I'll happily to that for you.
2 clementines; apple; OJ; spinach & green beans on f/v menu for today - I'll even eat @Soon2BMrsRamo's share if you let me off the burpees......:laugh:

I'd like to get in on this. Haven't done burpees since being in the Marines many years ago but they are a great exercise. Require very little space and need no equipment.
