    I don't know if this is too late, but I didn't check the forum during the weekend. But I did do 2 more miles during the weekend. So that brings the total up. So that brings us to 80.

    Is anyone doing the September challenge? I'm thinking about it, just nervous b/c that's when I return to school (Masters Program) and my schedule gets a little more hectic!! But I also love how this keeps me accountable, I have to show EVERYONE what I have eaten and what I've done for exercises, it helps to keep me goal focused.

    Hmm... I think I just talked myself into doing another challenge! LOL

    Okay. Have done the extra 50 crunches today (I normally don't, so it's all gravy), met the water and calorie goals, and am now about to tackle the exercise challenge.

    Did we meet the 100 mile challenge last week?

    My bummer: zero weight change during this challenge. The bonus: at least I'm not heavier today than I was on July 30.

    aby- I had a gain :( luckily it wasn't my official weigh in day so hopefully I'll get back down by the end of the week. I feel like I might end up GAINING weight with this challenge since it is building muscle.

    I am sending out a cry for help here. I am DYING to binge on cookies, HELP!

    I did my extra 100 crunches, as well as the other challenge.

    Good luck with the cookies!! My only suggestion is to look at the calorie amount, SOMETIMES that turns me off, not always though! Good luck! LOL

    Ok everyone! I just saw another team challenging eachother to EACH do 1000 extra crunches this week! not 100, not 200, but 1000! What do you all say? I don't know how MissBroccoli feels about it, but she is awarding anyone who does it an extra 10pts. I'm in if you're in....hell, I'm in if you're NOT in :)

    Oh, and I have so far avoided the cookies. I ate 2 of them (which is half a serving)
