    Hi SommerJo,

    I sent you a friend request. Hope I can still join. This is just in time for a family reunion at the end of the month so hopefully I will be 10 lbs lighter in time :)

    Best wishes to everyone as we are united in this endeavor....however

    GO PURPLE TEAM!!!

    Hey people :smile:

    GO TEAM BLUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! :D

    OMG, 500 extra calories a day would be INSANITY for me...I burned 5500 calories this past week, which was insane for me, so that would be 9000 calories for the week...? Can I do it? :huh:

    How did everyone do over the weekend? My eating wasn't the greatest (I did great for b-fast & lunch, but things went downhill after that-which weekends are ALWAYS an issue for me, I seem to fall apart), but I somewhat balanced it out by hitting the gym Sat & Sun and burning 900-1000 calories each workout...or so the machine says lol

    Today I started a challenge for myself: eating new things for breakfast. I always eat cereal, so this week I am trying to incorporate more veggies into my breakfast. Today's b-fast was a spinach & mushroom omelette...it didn't come out looking like an omelette, because I think I put too much veggies into it, but oh well, I still ate it :smile:

    Hope everyone is doing good this week so far!!! :D

    P.S. If you are looking for more MFP friends/supporters, I am too! so feel free to friend me :wink:

    I'm pretty sure she means burn 3500 calories this week on top of the BMR... I don't think it would be possible for me to burn more than that at this point, so I'm hoping I'm right...

    Hi, this is my first challenge and I'm really looking forward to it. I sent a friend request earlier today to SommerJo and I was wondering how do I find out if I got added to the group? My name is zjustine and my SW 167 CW 148 GW128
    I burned a little over 400 calories this morning.
