    Good morning Ladies!!! Hope that EVERYONE had a fabulous week one! I was going strong until yesterday....and i kinda got sidelined. But I'm back on track today! Got up at 5am to do Turbo Jam and Kettleworx and feeling good. Question: Is anyone else's appetite increasing now that you are working out more? If so, how are you fighting off the hunger? HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY. GO TEAM EPSILON!!!!

    Toofattoofit I'm with Jem, eat when you are hungry. I consumed 1700 calories 1 day this week (highest I've ever eaten and tracked lol) But I also burnt 1500 calories. So, yes definitely eat when you feel hungry b/c your body needs it. Have a protein shake, fruit, extra salad, doesn't have to be anything extreme just something that's good for you. Great job this week!!

    My personal goal was to drink 64oz of water each day and I did it!!! YAY ME!!! Actually I didnt drink NOTHING but water. I feel sooooooo good about that. Now I am just afraid about the weekend cause I get a lil crazy with the weekend. So with that being said my personal goal for week2 is to not let the weekend get me in TROUBLE!!! No eating fastfoods, drink plenty of water and COOK!!!! Hope you all have a great weekend!!! :)

    Ok ladies so as you can see week 2 of the challenge is posted! We did a great job this week and I've very proud. The picture to the left shows this weeks weekly winners, we will do this every week to spot light out shinning stars and team. The top five members are from all the teams.

    We did have a lot of members who did not weigh-in so I will remind you that if you miss two weeks in a row I will have to replace you with another member. This gives a fair chance to those who really want to participate and gives your team a chance to win. Please follow the format shown in the welcome post to weigh-in. This insures that it's easier for me to make the charts in a timely fashion. If you did not weigh-in this week please do so on friday as regular.

    I will be very busy this upcoming week so if you message me any questions or concerns forgive me if it takes a while for a response.
