Hey Team Red - I'm so sorry I didn't meet all of my goals this week. My fiancee is studying to be a chef and last night was the "Feastival of Chefs" - Needless to say I didn't keep track - I just enjoyed. My week was a bit crazy so I have no weight loss to report this week.

Oh, and can someone fix my stats - I don't know if you're doing it Tausha or if Kaechelle is but the first week I started at 188.6, lost 2.8 lbs at the end of that week then putting me at 185.8, then the second week I lost 3.4 lbs putting me at 182.4 lbs - so in total for the two weeks I lost 6.2 lbs!

Thanks for fixing that for me!

Hi Sandy! Thx for this. and sorry for any mix-up. I will fix it this week! :0) I'm hoping to post our new spreadsheet tomorrow!

Hi Girls!! Just wanted you to know we have added 2 new members. I'm only allowing them to join b/c we have lost so many. (you will see after I post this week's spreadsheet)

So...

TEAM PINK...You will have a new member as soon as she posts her stats here! Please welcome her. I can't remember her screen name, but I've told her how awesome you all are and let her know she should check in here.


Also,...

TEAM YELLOW... You are getting a new girl too!


Both of these ladies are friends with Tara and I think Miriam as well. They have been doing 30 day shred together.

Welcome them and I"m excited to get to know them!

Thanks for allowing me to join this late in the game, PoshTaush.

Go team PINK! Wahoo!

Name:Kory
Screen name: Korygilliam
Todays weight: 170.0

Been on a plateau for about 6-8 weeks...finally looks like I will get into the 160's. Today is a cheat day due to the one day I am going to the State Fair (Oklahoma), but eating dinner before to help decrease some of the splurge (and did an hour of zumba).

Will hunt for team members later, hubby is getting annoyed that I had to exercise before leaving and now 'playing' on MFP, lol.

Good morning all How is my blue team??

Awesome about c25K!! I've wanted to do it for so long now and have just NEVER started it! How do you like it? I'm considering it myself.

Ok... I have a question to those of you who are getting close to, or who are in "Maintenance"....

I know that most, if not all, of you have changed your "daily goals" for calorie consumption.

I guess my question is this....

What percentages are your goals set on??

Percentage fat, carbs, and protein??

Thanks in advance. I KNOW that the high carb thing is NOT the way to go for me!

Goals for the week:
Water: 16/56
Crunches: 100/210
Calories: 0/1200

Still no calories burned...unless I were to count cutting and canning 21 pints of tomatoes! I'm sure I burned a few there, but not even going to touch it. I barely ate today as it was, and don't want to get yelled at by MFP for being too far under! Now I need to go get myself something to eat!

soccermum75

Current weight is 152. I did not do the challenge this week. Sorry if I have been MIA. I have been sick for almost 2 weeks now and put all the energy I had left into training for my half marathon this Sunday. Next week I should be able to do the challenges.

Team Pink,

We have a new member. Welcome Kory! Glad to have you!

Since our logo has our names on it, I am changing my logo to the original one I created before adding the names. Just in case we get any other members, this may be the best way.

So, here is the code to put in the signature. Change the capital IMGs to lowercase at the beginning and end.

korygilliam

Yay, logo works! Thanks for posting it.

Did good--didn't eat a single thing at the Oklahoma State Fair, so I rewarded myself w/ a Braum's chocolate frozen yogurt (small) which is only 220 calories and a whole lot cheaper than the chocolate dipped cheesecake on a stick I was thinking about Then I remembered almost being in the 160's finally and it helped me pass it up!

Yeah, the 1200 calories will be very easy. I still got two more days of the week left and already at 4hr 55 min and 3529 calories, per my heart rate monitor!

9/22--H2O-19/95 cups, crunches-30/210, calories-395/3600

Kittu125

Today's n yeterday's stats

9/22--H2O- 16/56 cups, crunches- 50/210 n sit-ups 60/210 calories-1120/1200
9/23--H2O- 28/56 cups, crunches-60/210 n sit-ups 60 calories- 3291/1200


Still not upto the goL of burning 1200 per day but I think I can average it out thru out the week.

Welcome kory and Joanne to our team pink and yellow. Everybody on that team is doing awesome and give great support and motivation, hope you enjoy doing this.
