    I feel like the challenges need a little clarification so here is what I’ve decided…

    Monday: self explanatory

    Tuesday: Because some of us like me don’t have a set amount of time or reps, it makes adding 20 minutes/reps to it tough, so in this case the minimum will be 40 minutes of exercise and 40 reps.

    Wednesday: I think the new exercise thing is ok, but I don’t think it has to be something you’ve never done, (because honestly, there are very few things I have never done!) but just something that is not part of your regular exercise routine. For the water, we’ll use 64 oz, that will be easier to track if it is the same number for everyone.

    Thursday: fruit/veg/fiber, pretty easy, on fiber lets just do the mfp recommended.

    Now for throw down Thursday, I’ve been thinking about it this weekend and I really think unlimited challenges is going to be a nightmare for scoring purposes, plus the more well known ones, like the captains, are going to get more challenges issued than others. So each person can issue one challenge, and each person can accept one challenge, the scoring will go: one point for issuing the challenge, 1 point if you win your challenge, 1 point if you will the challenge issued to you. So a total of 3 points is available.

    Friday: pretty self explanatory

    Ok, if there are any questions, please let me know asap, so we can iron them out before the day arrives.

    Thanks for all the clarification, I think that will help.

    One last question about Thursday-can more than 1 person accept a challenge? I think that should be ok.

    NO I think we better stick to one person issues a challenge to one person. If the person issued, has already accepted a challenge, they will have to find someone else.

    Also, challenges can be anything, not just time worked out and calories burned. It can be ANYTHING positive, not like I can eat more ice cream than you.... but it can be I can do more crunches than you, etc. Just be creative!

    I think I'm confused... Looks like there could be 5 points total for the dya up for grabs!?

    Meet Fruit/Veggie/Fiber: 1pt
    Issue Challenge: 1pt
    Accept Challenge: 1pt
    Win Challenge you ISSUED: 1pt
    Win Challenge you ACCEPTED: 1pt

    I get it...

    Fruits/Veggie/Fiber: 1pt

    Issue challenge to specific person: 1pt -OR- Accept challenge someone issued to you: 1pt

    Win the challenge you issued and someone accepted: 1pt -OR- Win the challenge that someone issued and you accepted: 1pt

    3 pts total

    Right, except you only get a point to issuing the challenge not accepting.

    Individual with the highest % of weight lost compared to goal: Jeanie and Marie at 5% each.
    Individual with the most pounds lost: Jeanie and Marie with 2.5 lbs each.
    Individual Calorie Burn Challenge Winner: Rachel with 3,539 calories burned. WOW!!

    Perfect 10's: Marie WOW again!!

    We have lost a total of 185 lbs so far!!! :flowerforyou:

    For the team point challenge, I don't want to officially call a winner. Team Abnehmen, is in need of overhaul and the other teams didn't do great so I just think for this week only we'll concentrate on the individual accomplishments.

    We will rise!! I want to apologize for not being as active as I should be. I've been adjusting to our new schedule (3 kids in soccer and awanas, 2 in school, 1 in extra art classes). But, that's no excuse to neglect myself and my team. Let's do this, Team Abnehmen!!

    I would like to issue a challenge for tomorrow (this way you would know in the morning). I challenge someone to take more stairs up than I do tomorrow. (this does not include the stair machine, just good old fashioned stairs).

    Let me know if you are up for it!
