I'm getting confused still when does next week start? I've caught up with my excercises for the week so far. maybe its easier to number september instead of week 2: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 just put the corresponding day of the week (7, 8, 9 and so on?) For those of us sleep deprived that have a very slow brain lately. Worked out this morning soo much easier to do stuff in the morning than at night. Too bad morning workouts are only possible when Andrew can stay home with some of the kids. Today Maxim joined me but I can't do my running with all three

For those of us who do not run (me included): don't be thrown by the wording for week 2 "for every 5K you do, you will get extra points". I am NOT running 6 5k's this week. I will do one, maybe two if I feel ridiculously crazy (which I probably won't). One 5k for me is a big deal. Just sayin'...

From Gary:
Attention TRIBAL WARRIORS! Are you up for a Mini Challenge for this week to get us started? No point involved...but you might notice higher weight loss which will end up in points earned! So here's the challenge. Burn 1000 calories in a workout this week! You can do one day at 1000 or do each day its up to you! REMEMBER THESE ARE OPTIONAL FEEL NO PRESSURE TO DO THEM UNLESS YOU ARE A SURVIVETTE THEN ITS MANDATORY!

Labor Day Blues (from Gary)
Labor Day is gone and it's time to put away your white shoes and pants, so my wife says, and look forward to cooler temperatures. You might be saying, "what about all those calories I consumed over the weekend?" That's just what those are calories of the past. Never dwell on past calories. The decisions you made either bad or good are now set in stone. This is the life we lead. So how do we pick up and move forward. I have a few tips to help you get rid of the Labor Day blues.

Tip # 1
Increase your water this week. Labor Day we tend to consume high fat, high sodium foods. An increase in water will help flush the sodium out of your system. You may have noticed an initial 2 - 4 lb gain since Friday. Much of that will be water. Its been stated that it takes 3500 calories in a 24 hour period to gain one pound. If you truly gained 3lbs over the weekend you would have consumed over 10,000 calories. I'm guessing most of you didn't even come close to that. I've learned you fight water with water!

Tip # 2
Increase your activity this week. Push yourself harder than last week. That boost in metabolism will help kick start this weeks exercise challenges and will help you burn those extra pounds.

Tip # 3
Leave the past in the past. Don't beat yourself up. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas is all coming. What I've learned is that one holiday a month not counting calories will never result in a lifetime of obesity. Its what you do surrounding these days. If you are pushing your activity levels to new heights, watching what you eat and utilizing portion control on these Holiday, you will be able to enjoy them instead of dreading this time of year. Common sense and focusing on the present and not the past will provide you with better tools for success.

RAISE YOUR SPEARS!
YOU ARE DOING IT!
KILL FATTY!
