    Hi all , my name is Kelly. First thing first, enough of the smack talk teams 1 and 2, team 3 is gonna beat y'all!! :happy: bring it!

    ok, I'm a 42 yo, married mother of 2, my oldest going into kindergarten this year. I am also in logistics Dave, pricing supervisor. Like a lot of you I work full time at a desk, no fun, no exercise. I started around 260, currently at 248. My goal for New Years is 200 lbs. Marti, congrats on the c25k. I started it, but between shin splints, kids and work, I didn't get past week 2. I just started the 10 minute trainer and am looking forward to digging into those every day. Assuming my kids will give me 10 minutes on my own :grumble:

    Good luck to everyone !!

    I have a challenge idea but it might not be what people are thinking, rather a good way to get everyone on the same page. How about if by the end of tomorrow we have all done 3 things...1. Calculated our BMI, 2. Posted an introduction and goal, 3. Add our team members as friends.

    And I just hope all the people on Teams 1 and 2 realize that they are only as good as 3 when they add themselves together.

    I like this challenge. Just one correction we are using body fat % not bmi

    So that's Tuesday's challenge! Let's do it!

    40.3% body fat is my measurement for today. I might add [she puffs up with pride] that when I did this on June 4th I was 43.8%. Just sayin'. :wink:

    I like that this body fat percentage calculator also has a handy chart so you can know what a normal zone is. I'm shooting for22- 25% bodyfat as my ultimate goal (I'd like to be curvy still), although I seriously doubt I will be there by January.
