Go Brownies! Let's rock this thing!!!

In case you haven't seen it, here's some official challenge info:

AND I QUOTE:

"Would you like this idea ?

To make it clear for everyone - there never been thought about complete eviction for active members!!! - we are family and we want to have a fun and keep motivating ourself !!! I am sad to say it but there will be people leaving this game because they want to . Not because we will evict them !!! And we are not prison so if anyone decide to leave we will respect it!!!

Everyone agree to remove inactive team members ( unless they will explain reason why - lost connection to Internet - illness - vacation and so on.it makes it hard for captain and everyone trying to contact them - lets say person has to be idle for 2 weeks.) Should we design rest card for people on holiday???
.

Make it easier for me and everyone stop calling this eviction but moving to home pit

We will be announcing 3 winners - there will be complete winner , home pit winner and biggest transformation winner - last part is based on photos - this will be done by vote-by everyone !!! If you don't want to post picture it is fine - you can still play other parts of game !!!

What does it mean to be in HOME PIT- not much change - you would stay in your group- you know your group and your group is like your family !!! You should continue playing. Your current captain will keep track of you. You will be still getting extra lbs if you complete challenges .But you will be playing along other home pit players .YOU CAN NOT BE EVICTED FROM HOME PIT IF YOU ARE ACTIVE MEMBER!!!!!!

People from HOme pit can't win complete A-S BL winner but they can be home pit winner .... I would say we should move 2 people a week - I think this 2 people should be the ones with lowest percentage of loss in that week adding extra lbs from challenges. There is lots of extra lbs in challenges to make it fare for smaller players.

At the moment we have around 93 members so moving 2 people to home pit would brake this group in half .

I will be posting A-S BL winners and Home pit winners every week - last week we will have FINALE!!! with no extra challenge lbs and no extra advantages!!!

Home pit winner and winner is going to be based purely on % of weight loss !!! Transformation winner on vote from other players :-)) "

END OF QUOTE

Also, the official weekly weigh-in for our team will be on Monday mornings. Please try to get your weigh-in posted either here or message me by mid-day on Monday, so that I can get it on the spreadsheet!

And let's keep working hard - the week's half over - to be the TOP TEAM! There's no reason (barring injury or illness) that we can't be NUMBER ONE every week! I want us each to reach our goals, and it's GREAT that we can do it together here as a joint effort! Soooo, make good food choices, drink your water, and move that body!

YAY BROWNIES!!!

Pam that post was confusing and honestly I have no idea what the heck the person who posted that is talking about.

Honestly, most of time this contest seems confusing to me. There are numerous threads with different information, rules that - especially after reading the quote you posted - that I feel like might be in place that I am clueless about. For example, that quote says something about winners and HOME PIT. This is the first Ive heard of a "winner" to this contest. Honestly, I was wondering about that.. seems obvious but there was never any mention in the initial messages I read. And I have no clue what HOME PIT is and the more I tried to re-read the quote the more confused I was.

Pam, I appreciate you posting what we are supposed to be doing here in this thread, I'm not even going to attempt to follow what's going on in the numerous other threads because it leaves me totally confused.

Thanks again pam!

Hello Brown Team! I am sorry I didn't quite understand the challenge part until now... Qa

I really hate fish except for tuna and shark.
I am going to gym later today and can do some cardio and squats.

The only recipe I know for fish is tuna salad but I make it with cottage cheese and apples, and shark is good on the grill like barbecue, but I don't have any of that on hand.

I also like tuna steak grilled with some fresh mango on top an marinated in some balsamic vinaigrette.,

I really want to try the new cardio kick class at our gym, but not sure if my work schedule will allow for it tomorrow. We will see..

Plus my whole family has bee sick for two weeks with stomach bug and now we all have sinus infections, so I've been so miserable:and not tracking consistently..

My goal for the rest of the week until Monday will be just to drink more water, and track and log everyday to get back in the habit of it again consistently.

Hope everyone is doing great this week!

Today was just AWFUL!!! I don't know how much longer I can hang in there. Life gets in the way of my weight loss. I'm an emotional eater, so when life challenges get in my way, it makes this weight-loss goal so much harder to reach. :sad:

Wednesday:
Cardio - 280 minutes walk/circuit training
Something new - went for a hour long hike yesterday
Squats - 400
Fish Dish - 2 of 2
Fish pic & recipe - posted

I posted my fish recipe on the main board: and posted a picture! It really was just a fancy tuna salad that I made up, but it came out good. And it was fun to take the pictures

I did Zumba last night and 40 squats.

Hope to get out for more walks this weekend since it looks like nice weather!!

For my new exercise I didn't get to the cardio kick class, but I really should do weight lifting of some sort. I never ever do that and would rather do hours of cardio over weights.

Any suggestions with some sort of weight limiting regimen for someone who hates it..lol

that should say
Any suggestions on a weight lifting regimen?
