I've posted this here 'cuz God knows i don't read the exercise threads!!!LOL

So here it is:

1. Starts Monday, April 25

2. You post 3 hrs a week of any exercise you can force yourself to do.

3. Weigh in is your normal day. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

4. We have 7 teams. Your team is your weigh in day. Mon team, Tues team etc....

5. Send me your screen name, start weight, Measurements, BMI

6. After your first week send your weight, hrs exercising.

7. Once a month we will do measurements, BMI ( First week of May 23)

8. Send info to me, as threads can be hard to follow.

9. Feel free to post on our thread any challenges and successes.

10. We will jointly decide when we should up the hrs. of exercise. It has to stay challenging.(Ever hopeful!!!)

11. I'll post this challenge on the exercising thread as well. See, I don't even know what the thread is called!

12. People can join anytime. Just let me know you are new and what day you are going to weigh in.

13. I'l post ongoing results weekly.

Well, anyone with me???

    I'm in but I might be confused about the directions as well. Do we pick what day we weigh in? Is there somewhere else we post our measurements? and do we friend you? I'm sorry for all the questions, I just got on mfp today and don't really know how everything works but I'm game for a challenge. I start my new job the 25th as well so it may be extra challenging!

    Hey All-
    Today was the day from hell. I went into work early to post everyone's stats. My kitchen aide called in sick. that meant I had to work in the kitchen all day prepping lunch. In middle of that I get called into my boss's office. Some high muckity muck from city hall was there and gave me my pink slip. (not unexpected....12 of us got them in my center...600 people throughout the city) Back to the dish room where i was pushing the dishes through the dish washer. I turned a fell over a dish rack and spent 5 hrs at the hospital.

    Well tomorrow is a new day as we say and since I can't stand on my feet for 24 hrs I will have lots of time to post everything. I just have to wait until the vicodin wears off:bigsmile:
