    Alright team Cut the Caboose.
    We have a few changes.
    I emailed Lantern about some things and she is stepping down
    as our leader & asked me if I would take step up, I agreed.
    I also have been doing some searching for our members to add them so I can reach you all
    through my wall as I am not sure you can send an MFP mail to everyone simultaneously.
    Anyway, I discovered that one of our members deactivated her account.

    I am in full agreement with digital, that even though it seems only a few people are participating
    that we should keep going, we made a commitment.
    So... let's KICK some TAIL!!! :wink:

    I need everyone to tell me how many days they've done there challenges this week so far(out of 4)
    so I can update our spreadsheet.

    Just remember we get bonus points as a team if we ALL complete every daily challenge for the week. (5 bonus points)

    Yarn, Would you rather us check in on the forum here or send you a message?

    I completed the challenge for days 1,2 and 4. Day 3 I stayed under calories and drank my water, but did not complete the exercises.

    Today I have completed the exercises and I will complete the water and food part.

    I need how many days exercises you've completed, if you've consumed 64oz (or more) each day and if you've stayed under calories.

    you can post here OR send me a message.
    Also i think we'll do weigh-ins on Monday.
    So if you've done your weigh-in already, please include pounds lost in your post/message.

    Hi Everyone.....sorry sorry sorry! I've been MIA because I go to the lake and we have very limited access to the internet....actually just my iPhone if I put it in one spot and don't move it! yes, I have been drinking my water every day, eating my allocated calories, and doing my "extra" workouts for the challenge. I will also make it a point to post more every day that I am in town. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
