    walked 5 km to and from work (forgot to use my pedometer so i will figure this out by remembering to use it tomorrow) plus the walking at work, which cannot be easily tracked as i was at my retail job and running all over the store.
    water 48 oz
    total inches 222.25

    does map my walk track steps? in case I don't remember my pedometer tomorrow, I'd like to be prepared with a back up plan

    Hey guys, good morning :)

    @andywilson6, please read this thread :)

    http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10280166/weekly-and-daily-challenges#Item_35

    There is a challenge logger available, that can be filled daily or weekly :)

    About the team name :) you can call yourselves people eaters :smiley: on here. But I can't change it on the sheets for now, i hope you understand :smile:

    @missyhill99 oh dear, i hope your feet get better soon, you & @AlMonkey can still log your steps, one km is approximately 1000 steps and a mile is 1600 steps approx.

    Okay Team,

    Day 2-4 - Focus on cutting processed food. and tell us how you managed to?

    So i am seeing that you guys are doing great job at communicating.

    @chulipa was my one of the best "Sticking till the End" member in the previous challenge. She knows how I & these challenges work. So I am appointing her to be the Purple Team's Mentor. You have any thing that's confusing you. Talk to her and me.

    Have you guys added all of your team mates?

    One tip! Start posting motivating phrases on your wall like #GoPurpleForce. We are killing this.
    Also, encourage everyone on your team. Even if someone takes 5 steps.

    So the people who might be hesitating to communicate on here or in person start communicating & supporting.

    You can do it daily or weekly it's your call.
    Which is your focused macro? Just calculate the percentage of it. I shared a link for percentage calculator on the weekly daily challenges thread as well

    Focused macro? Is that just whichever one we want? Is it the one we have set as our highest? Are we choosing it as a team?

    My water intake is awesome I'm at 120 oz already but my problem seems to be my protein I can never seem to hit that without my carbs being crazy. I have my carbs set lower then protein. I can use some serious advise all are welcome. :#

    I don't eat cereal that often so that process food is easily taken away.
    I don't eat lunch meat... gone
    I do frozen or fresh veggies which is pretty good
    my issue is bread and potato's :neutral: and cake and pasta (I think you guys get the picture) I am a lot better with it I've come a loooong way but still a waaaays to go.

    I guess you can say I'm still a work in progress :wink:

    Hey no you don't have to create a typer form. That's just promotional. It's what the site do.

    About percentage. What is your focused macro.
    Protein.. fat or carb. Which ever it is. And it's percentage. Do check daily and weekly challenges thread. I have explained it there in one of the posts
