Welcome Team Bob!!!:happy: I am so excited to get our team together and get going on this amazing challenge. I want you to know that I support each of you 100% and want to be there for you in any way possible. Please feel free to contact me any time if you have a question, concern, idea for the team, or just simply need some support. Support is so very important in this journey to good health. Please friend each of your team members if you have not already and I will make sure I friend each of you too. Let's really be there for each other and make this fun!
I will be posting a weigh in topic each week on Monday nights. Weigh ins are on Tuesdays. Please make sure to put your prior weeks weight and your current weeks weight on this thread. I will close the thread on Wednesday mornings. If you have not put your weight on the thread by that time you will be dropped from the challenge. If you for any reason can not get to the computer or need me to put the information in for you, please just drop me a note. I will be happy to help you!
On to the Challenge....
We are going to see how many healthy points we can add up!! Each day give yourself:
1 point - If you contact one of your teammates. Like I said earlier, support is key to our success. Just a simple "Awesome workout" is great support.
3 points - If you drink 64 oz. of water
3 points - If you eat 2 servings of fruit for the day
5 points - If you eat 3 servings of veggies for the day
5 points - If you logged your food diary and stayed within your calorie goals
5 points - If you got at least 30 minutes of exercise for the day (it doesn't matter intensity or if it was all at once)
That means you can get up to 22 health points each day!:happy: Please log on here your points with any notes on successes and/or challenges you are having. We want to cheer you on, and also to offer suggestions with any struggles you may have. Remember... you don't have to have a perfect score! The goal is to push ourselves to be the healthy, fit people that we know we can be. It will start today, so between now and Monday there are 132 points possible for each of us. I will keep track and at the end of week one put up our final scores. I know you will all do awesome!
Finally... don't give up! If you slip up on this journey, just pick yourself up and get back on the wagon. Let's see if we can keep our team together and not lose any members. This is a no judgement zone team. I am cheering each of you on and wanting you each to reach your goals!!!
Go Team Bob!!!

You did great! Like I said, it's not about a perfect score every day. I know I sure don't have them. We can all just push ourselves to do the best we can. I think you get a thumbs up!0 -
