Hey guys, its monday!
and that means I need your week3 weights asap.
for those of you who still havent sent me last mondays weight u can send it to me now as well, otherwise u just get zero points.....
also, there may be some confusion:
posting on here daily is fantastic and serves as motivation for all, but it is really painful for me to decipher...
so what i have asked for is for u to send me a summary at the end of the week (end being sunday/monday) of what you did for the week.
again, if i dont get your email i have to log you as zero points for each of the challenges!!!!
thank you for your commitment!
have a great day,
shaindi
ps, please note the globe jumps have been clarified to say "each jump up is one"....SHEESH! no wonder i was dying after 50!!!0 -

I was re-reading my posts I forgot to include the Bushman challenge for Friday, September 9th. I didn't do any challenges on Thursday, but I did two on Friday.
Today:
Weight: 128
Daily Challenge = Bushman - Done! (I thought doing the entire globe jump - all 4 jumps - counted as 1. Happy to see I was wrong about that, but I didn't catch the clarification until AFTER I had done them)
Water = 8 glasses
Calories = Under
Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend and Monday wasn't too rough on ya!

im sorry i'm not around all that much - back at work, and i dont have a desk job, so no computer time for me!
please know i'm supporting you from the sidelines!0 -
Hi!
Here is my summary for last week:
- I've lost one pound...current weight is 217.
*Everyday I was under my calories, except for Friday, 9/16 - where I was over by 99 calories.
*All Week 3 Pygmy exercises were completed...as well as all the water and the challenge (which was brutal)!!!
*The run/walk/jog was also completed... I also ran 9.26 miles on Saturday continuously 0 -
hey!
thank you to those that have already sent me your weekly summaries.
those that havent, please try to get them to me by tomorrow evening. thanks!
at this point i am still unable to get week 4's challenges.
the other captains do not have it yet either, and gary (the creator) has been unreachable - i know he did a warrior dash this weekend, and maybe that threw him off.
Here's my thought:
If i don't get the new challenges to you by the time you are doing your workout tomorrow, just pick any day from last week and complete it so that we don't lose the points for the day. (if you have any other suggestions, please let me know!)
thanks!
shaindi0 -
ok....here it is!
(Gary's computer crashed, poor guy's email must've been flooded!)
I already did last weeks day 3 exercise for today, but I will attempt to double up day 1 and 2 tomorrow (provided I wake up early enough), but only one tabata.
If you did a replacement exercise today, you DO NOT need to double up tomorrow....when you send me this week's stats just send it as completed.
thanks for hanging in there!

Hi, so here is my update for this past week (rather whenever I last updated you to now):
Monday weight: 170
Waters: every day 64+
Calories: I have lost track since there were a few days were I didn't track on here for exact numbers, but I kept track in my head throughout the days and I know that for my av weekly goal (zig zagging) I did not go over.
As for exercises, I need to get refocused. I did not do them and I need to regroup and refocus to get a better plan together for the week between work, hw, and school. I should be able to do all of Pygmy for this next week, but sometimes I just don't have a way to go out walking/running because it isn't safe to do so where I live/work.
So - my game plan/goal for this week:
-Get back on strict calorie counting/tracking via MFP ONLY
-Get my *kitten* to the gym on walk/run days so I feel safe and get shizzzz done!
-Get the exercises in everyday this week.
I have been really good about my calories and water, but I hope that posting this publicly will force me to get my *kitten* back in gear because I have been slackin' lately on the exercise and I don't like it.0 -
I'm in total agreement. I need to get my motivation back....
Water: always over
Calories: Mon-Friday (under), Sat (over)
Workouts: Monday-Thursday (perfect), Friday & Saturday (nothing)
I did shop on Saturday, so that got a lot of walking in, but I didn't do anything extra. Plus, I was baking a lot on saturday, because I have apples up the wazzoo. So this did NOT help my calories.
I am getting back on track this week. Didn't workout on monday, but did double yesterday, and have been under calories and over on water. Trying to give away all the tasty snacks to co-workers. :-)0
