Everyone I'm worried about Gary. Please keep him in your prayers tonight. He hasn't been back since he posted the following yesterday. Just keep him in your prayers please.
Gary6030 Folks I'm having a major life interruption. I will be back on later this evening to answer messages or tomorrow afternoon. Those of you that pray please pray for me. It's nothing serious but its major mess!

Sorry haven't checked in but heres the update
Ok so Friday and Sat I got everything done and ate under cals and drank water. Sunday wasn't a rest day for me so I caught up with my exercise I didn't do on tues (as had my rest day then) and I finished all my sit ups, ouch!!! Also Sunday under cals and over water. Got on the scales today and I'm sorry to say I haven't lost anything (but haven't gained either). But I'm really not surprised as I haven't been going to the gym as regularly so need to step it up. Off swimming with Anina in the morning and then probably hit the gym in the afternoon so I'm coming back from the dark side. Ok 2morrow I promise I'll start being more diligent on the board. This time next week those scales are going DOWN!!!0 -

Hey there everyone!
I just saw I pledged 600 JJ's towards the team challenge...I'm upping that to 1200 because I believed that's what I'd said and I've been doing 200 @ a time! :blushing:
Today's exercises were completed with the help of one of my bootcampers i.e: I conned her into doing them with me :laugh:
2x 20 tuck jumps - check
50 Squat kicks - check
20 globe jumps - check
200 Jump jacks - check
200 crunches (100 bench / 100 bicycle) - check
2 miles - check
I've also just found out that my gym is holding another challenge next month and there are 3 categories.
1) Biggest Loser > mainly weight loss and it's a 2-person team effort
2) Biggest body transformation > Male (body sculpting I think)
3) Biggest body transformation > Female (as above)
I am going to take part in the body transformation category and am asking you all for help along the way! I know most of us are not going to be in the same team challenge next month but we'll still be mates and I'll keep you posted along the way...
Furthermore, I think I've hit that TOM because I feel like I've got worms...how do you combat the constant "want" to eat?0 -
Team Challenge:
Ab crunches 550/800, JJs 200/200
Daily Challenge:
Windshield Wipers, Swimmer's Presses & 21's done.
Calories = under
Water = still forcing it down, but I'm gonna do it before I go to sleep even if I have to take the water bottle to bed with me...LOL. (kidding of course)0 -

I'm really confused... are we supposed to be doing the stuff on the list that says Day __ whatever AND the name of the day (Monday, Tuesday)? I didn't do Mondays 'cause I just looked at Lori's status for the day for what our challenges were. I'm really not up to a 5k today PLUS my one mile...0
