    Hmmm...now I really have to think of a new habit. I'm going to steal SMLISLEY's because it is something I need to start doing too.

    Clean/organize something around the apartment for 20 minutes 3 times a week.

    Noted that change! Seems several of us will be living in MUCH tidier, more organised homes by the end of this challenge :bigsmile:

    First of all BIG congratulations to Melissa (barkingbetty) for making the top ten this week! WELL DONE :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Good to see a shark there! Let's make it at least TWO for next week :bigsmile:

    Secondly, hope you are all ready for week 2 :noway:

    Here is a summary of the challenge posted so far (last part still to be posted):

    #1 WORKOUT
    This week it's 30/45/60/90 - so 4 workouts on 4 different days
    NONE of the above can be split, so 90 minutes means 90 consecutive minutes :noway: etc. You can switch activity, but only a couple of minutes in between to change over.

    Calories burned: 1300 minimum for the week
    TEAM GOAL: 19200 for the week, so to help the team we should all be aiming for about 1480 calories this week.

    #2 REPS
    400 minimum again this week - but they must be Core reps or Cardio reps to count.
    TEAM GOAL: 7200 - so aim for 554 reps to help the team out!

    #3 FLEXIBILITY
    This time it is 10 minutes 4 times a week.
    Has to be an intentional time set aside for stretching.

    #4 not posted yet - but will be a points system linked to things like the habits we are giving or taking up, etc.

    LET'S ROCK THIS WEEK SHARKS!

    Go Melissa!!! You Rock!!

    I didn't know if we were starting a Week 2 sheet so I started here.

    Week 2 - Sunday

    90 minute workout (30 minute swim, 30 minute dog walk, 30 minute yoga - it was all consecutive): 477 calories
    0 reps - to be honest I'm probably not going to do these... If I can get any workout in I am happy!
    10 mins flexibility done

    My news this week is my blood tests confirmed I'm a little further along then I thought (maybe a week) but have to wait for my dating scan in three weeks. I'm so excited for it!

    Kate, I found your pound, but I will donate it to Good Will since you surely do not want it back...

    WEEK 2
    #1 - :heart: WORKOUT
    30/45/60/90 - Do a Minimum of 4 workouts this week
    SUNDAY 48 minutes of raking etc. 357 calories
    PLUS 140 calories for 30 minutes walking (for calories only)

    #2 - :bigsmile: REPS - Do 400 Reps!
    SUNDAY 200 cardio reps as a mix of repetitive, sweat inducing, whole body praise and worship dancing unto the Lord....I know I did way more than 200, but I wasn't counting, but singing. I hope that is creative enough? And if it doesn't count then I will use it for 69 calories (even though I KNOW it was way more)???

    #3 - :glasses: Focus on Flexibility -
    I WILL be able to place my hands flat on the floor with legs straight....
    SUNDAY 10 minutes
    I like this flexing focus....might try to get closer to touching my nose to the floor or knee when sitting with legs spread....it won't happen during this challenge, though...

    Hey Shark buddies!

    I don't have anything to report for today...I have to really hit it Mon-Thurs!

    I wanted to let you all know that we (my family) are going camping tomorrow thru next Monday, and I don't think I'm going to have good internet access. We *are* changing campgrounds on Thursday (I think,) so maybe I can stop somewhere and get online to report...I'm not going to log my food, but I *am* going to try to be 'good,' and I'm definitely keeping tabs on my sodium so that I can get those points! We're planning lots of hiking, so I should be able to get my exercise in (hope my Achilles holds out!)
    Also, I am amending my bedtime habit to read 5 of 7 days each week. And I (of course) won't be taking my piano camping, but I can do some music theory study, and I am taking art supplies...
    The main thing is I wanted y'all to know where I am if I don't show up every day on here!

    Good job to Melissa on this week's loss! Thanks for the good example!

    LET'S GO SHARKS!!! Let's work hard this week; we can do this!!!

    LET'S ROCK THIS WEEK SHARKS!

    Ali, thank you for posting week 2 challenge details. :flowerforyou:

    I will add the points challenge below now so that everyone knows exactly what they need to do. Sheri has really put it up to us :huh:

    :heart: Remember points challenge runs Monday to Sunday so only points starting 14th October will go towards the challenge. Post your total points every Monday (though for handiness sake I am going to post a running total at the end of each days stats).

    #1 Water - 64 ozs / 8 glasses – 6 days - 30 pts (5pts p/day up to maximum 35 pts) :explode:

    #2 Sodium - <2500 mg – 4 days – 20 pts (5pts p/day up to maximum 35 pts) :grumble:

    #3 Workout minutes – every 30 mins dedicated to a specific workout earns 5 pts up to a maximum of 10 pts p/day and 60 per week to allow for 1 rest day per week. :bigsmile:

    #4 If you complete your full weeks spec for bad habit you get 25 points – if not fully completed deduct 10 points :brokenheart:

    #5 If you complete your full weeks spec for good habit you get 25 points – if not fully completed deduct 10 point :blushing:

    :smile: (You get a chance here to change your good/bad habbit once for free, if you change it after that deduct 25 points):smile:

    #6 Every time you post something positive on our Sharks team page you get 1 pt, this is in addition to logging your stats, and up to a maximum of 1 pt p/day and 7 per week. :laugh:

    #7 Once a week post some smack talk on another teams page – one time / once per week for 5 pts. :tongue:

    Go sharks go - we have this :smokin:
