    O.K., checking in.

    Thursday 9/8 796 burned cups water 11
    Friday 9/9 651 burned already at 5 cups of water and it's only 10:30!

    Total calories so far 1447. My personal goal for the week is 5000 so I have 3553 left to go.

    Team Orange, what do you think about team challenges? Nat's gonna win the calorie burn one if we do that! I sure won't win any weight loss ones!

    Great job everybody and Donna I agree, this challenge is what I needed to hopefully get back on track. I"m giving myself the month of September to lift heavy weights but I'm not liking the results so far. People keep telling me that I'll be long and lean but I'm not getting that look. I know it's early (which is why I'm making myself do it all month) but I'm putting on weight, the inches are not coming off and my butt seems like it's getting bigger from all the squats! Not what I wanted!!! We'll see how this goes but I may switch over in October to pure cardio (which I love anyway) and only do some light lifting for my arms to keep them toned.

    Hi everyone,

    I just really need to say thank you to Tausha for starting this. I was feeling so discouraged and out of control. I was terrified that I was on the threshold of gaining ALL of my weight back!!! Now, I feel great!! It is amazing what one week of working out really hard can do to all of your hormones and endorphins!

    I worked out last night so normally I wouldn't have gotten up early today, but I did and went to the Y. While I was there I did an extra 20 minutes, because of all of you!!

    D


    AWWW DEE!!!! Thank you so much for this message! I'm so very proud of you and of course EVERYONE who has been working their tooshies off! I'm really so blessed to know that I've helped you in any small way just by suggesting this challenge. Thanks for letting me know I made a difference....whether it be large or small.

    I'm truly blessed to have people like the girls in this challenge on my side!

    Love...Tausha

    I agree with you Donna, I feel the same way - I've been having problems for months not being able to get back on track but I'm feeling hopeful and positive now. Thanks Tausha!!

    Thank you Sandy! ! You've been one of my supporters for a long time now! Thanks for always encouraging me as well!

    OK>..this week's weigh in/check in time is over. Any check in's after this post will not be recorded. You can check in for weigh ins next Thursday through SAturday at noon! :0)


    Teams, I will be assessing whether or not people are dropping out. If so, some teams may combine or get new members. I know that Chandra from the green team has been alone this whole time. It's strange to me that a whole team disappeared. Hopefully some will come back!

    Going to work on the spread sheet! (This is my first one ever, so bear with me!) The goal is to have it up by Tomorrow night!

    Love, Tausha

    My update for today: I had to take it easy since an old injury just started acting up (I have a ridiculously high pain tolerance so for me to say something hurts means it's beyond just hurt, especially for me to take a day off working out!). I will hopefully get back on track tomorrow AM, or I won't hit my personal 6000 calories burned goal!

    So far, calories burned are total: 2339
    9-7 = 693
    9-8=1309
    9-9=337 (moderate house cleaning - Hubby helped with the big stuff :happy: )

    Water min 200 oz p/day (or around 25 cups)

    Good news is, after bloating, I'm back to where I was when I started so I didn't gain anything last week: that means I just have to be more cognizant of what I eat this week so I can have a loss :happy:

    Keep up the fantastic work teams (especially Team Orange :flowerforyou: )

    Yay! I'm so sorry I didn't realize you were team green too! Please send Chandra a message! Also, I may add you both to another team together so that you both can receive extra support from ladies.

    However, can you and Chandra send messages to the rest of your team mates and see if they are still participating? If I can be certain, I will for sure add you to another team together! :0)

    We have some awesome girls on here, and I'm sorry your team mates haven't been showing up!

    Talk Soon!
