    So getting lesson from last challenge to keep us motiated we have begun our 20 week challenge(counting this 0 week).

    And i still need your captain ;)

    For many of us, this is a clean slate of getting back on track! For the WEEK O challenge, I thought we might take it BACK TO BASICS! Let's take this week to focus on drinking water and cooking ! I know that this is not the easiest thing for all of us to do .

    Hi Team! Jessica, I posted on the Captain thread that I would do it. Do you want to be Co-captain? I could definitely use the help. My Birthday, my son's birthday, and I have to move all with in the next two weeks. I'm really hoping I can keep up with everything. On a plus note I'll be able to burn some serious calories during two of those events. My birthday I am going to run a obstacle/ mud run so that will be fun. And of course moving is some serious hard work in itself!

    How's everyone doing with their water intake? Drink up my friends:drinker:

    Hi Lovelies

    I am so pleased with your efforts I hope you will like this week's challenges .

    This is our first official week !!!! It is supposed to be still an introduction, so have fun and get healthy!

    There is lbs reward for each part of this challenge

    Exercise max 7 lbs

    1. 4 days out of 7 of 30-45 min cardio or strength exercise sessions to be spread out during the week as it suits you best!

    sessions of jogging, fast walking, cross-trainer or treadmill,Zumba, Aerobics, Dance, DVD , Gym etc.
    (moderate cleaning doesn't count ;) !!! )

    1 lbs advantage for everyone who succeed to do 4 sessions!!!


    2. Try something new or something you didn't do for a while - independent exercise of your choice for 30 min session at least!!! : mine for example will be trying to go to work on bike. - I would not mind to go home from work but to get there is 90% uphill!!!

    If you lack inspiration, you can try swimming, clubbing (DANCING!!!), another class at your local gym, or that new DVD , take tennis rackets and go play tennis with kids in park ... or football ... I found out trampoline extremely hard :-)

    1 lbs advantage for everyone who succeed

    3. Best Butt Exercises For Women: Squats

    Squats are one of the best butt exercises you can do to build a nice round booty and sexy legs. Make sure you keep your abs tight, back straight, weight on heels, and sit your butt back.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSYv5lQo4yM
    can you make at least 350 a week ? E.G. 50 +60+70 +day rest +50 +60 +70
    1 lbs advantage for everyone who succeed 2 lbs for most squads


    4. Don't forget to take a day rest! Your body needs it.


    5. For the WEEK ONE FOOD challenge, I thought we might still keep it BASICS! Let's take this week to focus on fish and cooking fish - let other inspire you with their recipe ! I know that this is not popular choice but girls (as far as I know we don't have a man in our challenge) come on it is good for us - and for mums especially we need to introduce fish into our kids diet - and I am not talking about fish fingers ;) .... girls all fish counts and vegetarians try Sea Vegetables. Try to eat fish 2x a week. (1 lbs advantage if you manage to eat 2 portions of fish)

    Keep drinking water - even if it is not our topic!!! I hope you picked up some good tips.

    cooking challenge
    Also, I will be doing Cooking Challenge for week 0. It will run from today april 21th - april 28th . I need the pictures and recipe of 1 dish you were cooking this week for yourself . I will be judging on healthiness, calorie amount and presentation . It can be idea for lunch (pack lunch) , dinner , breakfast or even Snack!!!

    You must send picture + recipe here http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/965956-place-to-share-fish-recipes-1st-week-cooking-challenge The requirement this week is you must have fish in this meal.

    Best recipe will get 2 lbs advantage for week 2 weigh in and everyone who post recipe will get 1lbs



    To sum it
    4/7 sessions of exercise 1lbs advantage
    1 session of something new - let us know what - 1lbs advantage
    350 squats - 1 lbs for the everyone who manage to do 350 squats an extra 1 lbs for 1 person with most squats
    2 dishes with fish - 1 lbs advantage
    recipe - 1 lbs for everyone who post recipe extra 1 lbs for best recipe

    I did not succeed in completing any squats. There was some in my dvd, but nowhere near the 360.
