    Heads up everyone: BE CAREFUL doing the Burpees!!! I went to do my 10 for today, and I get down to the push-up position and as I start going down, my wrist twisted and I heard a crack. :sad:
    It's not broken though (thank god!!!!!!!) - I can still move it - it just feels really sore. Icing it and putting it in a splint!

    Week 2 challenge started late on day 4

    Day 4: daily challenge? No team challenge? Yes to calories, water & 5K
    Day 5: daily challenge? No team challenge? Yes to calories & water
    Day 6: daily challenge? No team challeng? Yes to calories, water, 10K & bear crawl

    I had oral surgery yesterday (a few weeks earlier than planned) so I'm limited to walking for the next few days. I'll make up for it later this week!

    Ok I'm updating for last week as my internet has kept me from logging on here. I wasn't able to log in and see what the daily challenges were, but I have completed 3 5K's and been under calories everyday. I did not lose any weight, but have maintained where I'm at. Really hoping to get a bit lower this week.

    Glad I was able to log in today so I can get all of week 3's challenges done in time :)

    Oh, and I'm excited that I joined a curves, probably going to start going tomorrow!

    Only was able to do days 1-3 as that's when m y internet came back. Been under calories every day! I did gain one pound, but I'm going to assume that's because of female issues :(
