    Hi Ladies,

    We are going to add a new rule to this challenge:
    If a member does not log in or comment on your team thread for more than 3 days, they will be replaced. Part of the journey of losing weight is having support. If a team member is going out of town or need a few personnal days please let your captain know and this will not apply to you. Everyone must weigh in on Wednesdays, if you are unable to on Wednesday please post your weight along with your points on Tuesday.

    *Team Captains-please msg the person that is not logging in and let them know, give them a chance to respond if they do not they will be disqualified.

    Please post this on your Team thread.

    Question - I want to know your opinions on Fast Food. I know the general thought of Fast Food is that is is fattening and high in calories, but what if you think before you order and fit it into your food plan for the day? Is it still "bad"?

    I have eaten fast food like mcdonalds and just added it to my journal. If you eat the regular portion or alter alter it, hamburger with no bun, I think it would be fine. I wouldn't do it all the time because its also high in fat but on ocassion as a treat, im not sure what'd it hurt. :-)I hope that helps.

    I don't usually add anything that is normal activity for me. The reason being that obviously my normal activity wasn't doing anything for me, so I want to make sure that the calories I am burning are beyond my normal activity...I hope that made sense....lol :-)

    I only track my actual exercise. If I went out and said, this is what I am doing as my activity for the day, then it is tracked, but I don't add cleaning or walking to the mailbox with my baby, shopping or anything like that. I just consider it normal routine and go from there.s =D
