    By Sept 1 - would like to be 210 or less.

    Not sure if I'm included on this challenge? I got the message but I'm so new to this board I haven't "challenged" myself to anything short of just starting this journey... but I'm more than willing to give it a shot!

    Thanks! Good luck to everyone.

    This is a challenge and is not a replacement! If you need a beginner workout please contact your team
    captain for ideas.

    Week One Daily Exercise Challenge
    Each team member that completes their daily exercise challenge receives one point, if all team
    members complete each daily exercise for all 6 days the team is then awarded an additional 5 Bonus
    Points.
    Day 1 Exercise Challenge - 100 Jumping Jacks*(see below)
    Day 2 Exercise Challenge – Walk, Run or Jog 1 Mile (extra)

    Day 7 Rest! You deserve it!

    If you are uncertain on how to do an exercise get with your captains as they will have a weblink to each
    exercise.

    Week One Weekly Team Challenge

    Each team member in order to get the weekly team bonus points must all log every day and not go over
    their target calories and log at least 64 oz. of water each day. If each team member does this all 6 days

    *Feel free to do these exercises in sets if you are unable to do them all at one time. Please do your best

    I have been doing really well. I have not gained since I started, but I am a little concerned I am slowing down.

    Should we introduce ourselves? My name is Jessica and I am a 39 yr old mother of 2. I lost over 40 pounds 3 years ago very quickly using Medifast. Fast forward to today... gained it ALL back. ::brokenheart: So I decided I am going to do it the right way this time... with exercise and watching calories eating REAL food. I am currently full force into Turbo Jam and after a week of that i found MFP. Love the community and the information! It is FANTASTIC! Looking forward to this montly challenge! I love being accountable to others... it helps me more than you know.

    Looking at the week 1 challenge...and I am beginning to suspect that Gary is some type of fitness professional! :). If it gets harder as the weeks go along, we are going to be about 5 kinds of awesome by the end of the month!

    Week 1 looks doable for me..with the exception of the up & downs. What are those? Also, are we logging each day on this thread or just our daily log? Sorry for all the questions. Look forward to working with you all!!!

    Good luck to everyone!!!!

    If I am not mistaken, up and down are the exercice you lay down on the floor on your belly then get up, then go back on your belly. I say log on this tread everyday. We have points for daily goals and also weekly goals. I will explain the point system a bit later.

    This will be fun

    Hi Jessica!
    My name is Kim and I am very excited about this challenge as well. I am looking to "stay on track.". I am 35, there is a strong history of diabetes in my family...I do not have diabetes and I would like to keep it that way! I am looking to "lock in" healthy habits with this challenge and keep them going for a lifetime.

    Cheers,
    Kim
