    Reps - 0
    Flex 1 x 7


    Weigh in is posted! Hope every one has a great friday!

    Also please let me know if me trying to contribute to the team numbers like min work out and calories reps is hurting more than helping I know i"m not going to be able to hit the calorie burns each week but I am trying to help out as much as possible with reps I can knock those out pretty good :) I don't want to hinder in anyway but It's fun to track keeps me accountable :)

    Way to go sharkies way to go!

    Well done Sharks! Two in the top ten (YEAH to Pam and Kate :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: ) AND we were the THIRD team. FABULOUS! But next week ... we aim even higher :bigsmile:

    As Pam said, ENJOY YOUR REST DAY TODAY :drinker:

    And let's attack next week in true shark-style :happy:

    For those who want a summary, here is next week's challenge:

    #1 WORKOUT: 220 minutes spread over at least FOUR days (minimum of 30 minutes on these days to count)
    Team goal is 2600 minutes, so everyone aim for 260 please :smile:

    Calories to burn: 1300 each BUT AGAIN there's a team goal: 16800 - so aim for at least 1680 burnt this week :bigsmile:

    #2 STRETCHING: 5 minutes only BUT ON ALL SIX DAYS! So you NEED to do this on Sunday, all through the week and to get up to make sure you get 5 minutes in on Friday before 10 am!

    #3 REPS: in two parts this week:

    (1) Stairs: Every 100 UP stairs = 5 points. Get as many in this week as you can. Maximum to aim for is 1000, which will give you 50 points.
    (2) CORE REPS: need to do 400 minimum this week. BUT TEAM NEEDS 5800 - so please aim for 580 each! Let's get those abs looking fabulous :heart:

    #4 PERSONAL CHALLENGE: again in 2 parts:

    (1) Pay someone a compliment and post how it went ON THE MAIN CHALLENGE PAGE not our Shark thread. No points to earn here, just an encouragement to be nice :love:
    (2) Make one of the low sodium recipes posted last week and post your comment - 25 bonus points to gain for this!

    So off you go Sharks! Let's aim even bigger than last week!!!!

    Congrats to our 2 top ten finishers and to the team as a whole. I have to apologize for my weigh in this week. I am completely baffled by this weigh in. I've put in the work and the results are just not showing on the scale. There is no way I've eaten that much in excess. But I know I have to try and get my sodium intake under control. I will try my best for better results scale wise this week!

    Thanks, Ali, for always summing up the challenge for us on the Sharks page.

    Great job last week, SHARKS, especially Pam and Kate for losing some serious weight!! I will take Pam's advice and rest up today :yawn:

    Here is my inspirational quote for the day:

    Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will. -Mahatma Gandhi

    Thanks all!! Hope next week is even more awesome for all of us. I celebrated by going for a run this morning and buying new running pants :) though they were expensive, I think it was money well spent, they are much higher quality than any other running pants I've ever owned. (In case anyone is curious they are lululemon pants- they have really great support!). I haven't bought running pants in a year so I think I was overdue. Now I'm going to ask for new running shoes for Christmas :)

    This week I'm aiming for at least another pound!! Hoping to get under 140 by December! Let's kick it into high gear folks!!

    Well done Kate and Pam ... Sterling work again. Ali, great job on challenge summary again. I have a feeling that our abs will be aching by the end of this week not to mention our thighs from all those steps :cry:

    Come on sharks we can do this :wink:

    A little something different for support today:
    I don't know how all of you try to structure your eating, but I thought I'd share what works best for me as far as weight loss. My calories are set at 1200, but I lose best eating below 1000 (I'm only 5'1".) And it definitely helps me to keep my protein fairly high and my carbs fairly low. I was very disciplined with this during Sheri's first challenge, and I came in 2nd place for weight loss! Plus, I had great muscle tone and lots of energy. (Too bad I got lazy and apathetic and gained some back!) My theory is that when I increase my lean body mass (add muscle,) I should be able to eat *a little* more and still maintain, as long as I have a decent exercise plan (and stick to it!) So, I encourage everybody to experiment with this and see what happens!
