WELL EVERYONE. I guess it's me again this week. I have to apologize to all of you, I had no idea that it was me, I haven't even logged this weekend until now. So I'm sorry for the late night challenge, but here goes..........

In addition to our previous challenges; greens, dairy, water, cardio, nuts, and one fun thing, I'm challenging everyone to 10 min a day of ENDURANCE.

This means sqauts, weights, pilates, YOGA...etc. I only say 10 min. because I have no idea what you'll choose and 10 min sounds like a nice round number, but not too much for those of us that don't even tighten the tension on an eliptical.

GOOD LUCK ALL.

    today....
    greens-broccoli
    dairy-yogurt
    water-working on it
    cardio-????
    nuts-snack will be 15 raw almonds
    one fun thing--???
    ENDURANCE---???

    I always struggle with the exercise portion of this - but I'll work in what I can.

    Did I tell you that I was away for a long weekend with my hubby at an event for his company at Mytle Beach - well between the catered meals and seafood buffet, I managed to work in 45 min each day on tread mill and lost 1.5 #--I wasn't able to log my food either. I am so excited!!!!!

    Ok so I have seen posting topics for 20 and less 25 and less and 100+ sooo we are the answer to that !!!!

    This challenge is for the tweeners out there -- 30 -100 pounds to go. Please post your goal and starting weight ( if you are comfortable doing so) if you'd like to join us. As you can see we are filled with challenges...

    Tweeners- should we start over next week with all new challenges - I would guess anyone who hasn't been with us would find this hard to keep up with.

    Morning Everyone!!

    Ok, I've been pretty sick this wee, so I'm doing terribly.

    I think all I've had too eat in the last three days is cream of chicken soup, and I can barely keep that down:sick:

    Hopefully you all are doing better.

    MsNewBooty - so sorry to hear that you're sick. Our Tweeners seem to have moved on. I think this will be the last week for the Tweeners--I really liked where we have gone with the challenges.

    Get Better!!!!:heart:

    Yeah, I think it's all done with the Tweeners:frown: I wish we could some how get it up and going better. I think it started going down hill when we lost our founder jenn10.

    Something else will come along. I think maybe I'll look into trying another support group, maybe a little different format. Interested? I'm going to do some research and see what i can come up with
