HELLO TEAM, THIS IS WHAT I SENT OUR NEW TEAM MATE, DID I FORGET ANYTHING?
First thing I would like to say is that I am really sorry it took me this long to respond back. I am usually more on top of things but to make a long story short, I went on vacation camping for a week in the mountains only to find out when we came down that a big storm had hit my home town. There was alot of damage to my house and one of my cars was totalled. (tennisball size hail and high winds) not that that is an excuse because It is not, I just dont want you to think I was blowing you off. I am really excited to have you on our team.
So here is what we have, it seems like alot of info but really it is not overall
This is the link to the spreadsheet with all the teams and their points, as you can see, we are not doing so well, lol. This is more of an FYI tool, not something you have to look at everyday if you dont want to.
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArutZf2a6Ry5dEFsN0ZFOENrd3hjWEJJTHdUVkxxaHc&hl=en_US#gid=2
This is the link to our team, "WeLoserWin" the most recent posts are last, this is where any needed info will be posted like out team challenges and such.

Basicllly, each week we have daily challenges we try to accomplish.
we have a nutrition, and excercise challenge, and then what I refer to as additional miles.
EXCERCISE (some refer to them as daily challenge)
usually consists of something like crunches, squats ect. There is usually a
link next to it you can go see for a demonstration. We get 10 POINTS a day for this
NUTRITION
usually consists of like under sodium, under calories, ect. We get 5 POINTS for this a day
MILES
this is not actually just miles. When we started we got 10 points for every mile walked, run, swam ect. but then it was changed to 10 POINTS for every 20 min of extra excercise. I still refer to it as miles because it just helps me keep it strait form the other excercise. (confusing I know sorry)
Each day I am supposed to report to knottyJen, our head leader what the points were for the previous day. To be hones though I have a few that isnt able to get online everyday and so I report them every couple of days. ( I think/hope it makes it a little easier for her to keep track of.
I hope I covered everything if not feel free to ask any of us. Oh yeah, my name is Christi and I am team captain
just remember:
daily challenges
reporting your points to me (I forward the total team points on) you can e-mail them or add them to our team link
oh gosh and I almost forgot Sunday is our rest day. we do not get points for any excercise but we get 10Points for each glass of water we drink up to 10 and then we get our 5 nutrition points.
ok so here is our new thread for this weeks challenge

Hello everyone! I am brand spanking new and am excited to be with you all. I've been on my journey my whole life, but in 2011 I started working with a trainer and nutritionist over at JillianMichael.com to once and for all create my dream body and make it come true. My brother lost 120 pounds on MyFitnessPal so in August 2011 I decided to use this for my primary food log. So, I am already SPINNING (I'm a new teacher as of spring) and doing circuit training (Jillians). So I'm thrilled to be on your team. I didn't know how or what to do until I got today's email on how to get started (thanks so much!). I'm glad to hear people's homes are okay; I'm in NC and we too are okay but in the past storms have brought trees through my house so I know how tough that can be. Okay, so here's what the captain can count for me. Sorry, I didn't know about Fri-Sun challenges so I can only count what I did. I will start the extra challenges now.
60 points total FRI-MON
FRIDAY
10 pts: Miles walked (1 mile uphil hike carrying 40 lb kayak)
05 pts: Nutrition
00 pts: Exercise challenge
SATURDAY
10 pts: Miles walked (1 mile uphil hike carrying 40 lb kayak)
00 pts: Nutrition
00 pts: Exercise challenge
SUNDAY
10 pts: Various lake activites (bike/paddle boat/kayaking) for sure one mile
05 pts: Nutrition
00 pts: Exercise challenge
MONDAY
10 pts: Treadmill desk one walking one mile
00 pts: Nutrition
10 pts: Exercise challenge (Jillian had these in the workout I did today)
Did I do this right?
Thanks,
Michelle0 -
Oh, and I had 8 glasses of water each day.0

ok ladies i think I have everything fixed. I went through my old e-mails and double checked everything making changes to anything that was not correct. Sorry about the delay on everything, but the spreadsheet on Knottyjens end will probably be updated soon.
I am going to try to use the link more than the actual e-mail, i am unable to send an email to multiple people and so it makes it a real pain.
So anyways good luck and keep up the great work.
Christi0 -
Looks great! I am so happy we have another team mate, we needed one.0
-
I'm not sure if we're supposed to update daily what we're doing or weekly. I just wanted to post today that I had a sore throat and so took it easy today. Rest day today which is usually Thursday. Tomorrow I teach a Spinning class, so I will for sure post points. Cheers!0
-
WEDNESDAY
100 pts: Teach Spinning class one hour -- not sure how many miles this is but 10 is for sure conservative.
10 pts: Nutrition
00 pts: I have a sinus infection that's dragging me so I'm not doing any more exercises than what I've already planned.
Cheers!0 -

I was at a retreat over the weekend so I have some to report:
Nutrition: 0

Monday 100 (teaching spinning class)
Let me know if there is a pulse out there. Thanks.

That's awesome, I would love to do a bike ride we have several around town here that I can try. Hopefully when I lose about 40lbs or so I will get a bike..
Thanks for your points!!

Thursday

Exercise - 30 minutes (15 points)
Planned on another bike ride but it was pouring out so I went shopping and bought 2 tops (both size L) - that's right no XXXXX's in the size. A first for me in years. It was actually fun in the dressing room. If you haven't reached this goal yet - it's definitely a great thing to look forward to. Makes all those hard workouts worth it!!!
Have a great weekend! TGIF0 -
