    First off I must confess to the team that I did not hit my calorie count! I feel really bad about it and want to apologize but I was still good when I could have been really bad which I was proud of!!! You can read about it on my blog if you want - http://honestyismydiet.blogspot.com/

    My goal this week is to be 100% on everything! My parents are coming into town on Thursday night and staying through the weekend so that will be a difficult goal but I am up for the challenge.

    This week with the extra team challenge we need to figure out who is walking what so we can achieve our 100 miles! If every person does 5 miles (20 people) we can get there. I know there are already 2 people that said they will walk 10 miles which is AWESOME! This week is going to be a CRAZY one for me for many reasons. Because of that I am pledging an extra 5 miles. I figure if I walk a mile after dinner 5 days this week then I can achieve this!

    Everyone put what they are pledging too so we can guarentte 100 miles!!!!!!!!

    Let's go Team Exercists!!!

    I can pledge to do my 5 miles. Running is still something I'm not very good at, so between the extra miles in the challenge and these 5 miles, I'll have my work cut out for me.

    Lorie, could you please repost what the challenges for this week are in this topic?

    You guys rock! Way to go!

    Go Team! We're going to do great this week.
    Last week was tough but I'm off to a great start today! I didn't realize how hard drinking the water would be. Crazy. I'm pledging 10 miles this week for our team goal.

    We can do these challenges on any day right? Because there is no way I can do 50 globe jumps plus the other two exercises in one day. Not just about my body, but time too. So we were gonna do like 10 a day until day 5. Is that cool?
