    I gotta change something, folks. 4 months now, and I've lost 4 pounds... Going in right direction but not ideal for all the effort I've put in.

    Well, we know you get enough exercise so I'm thinking it must be diet. I don't know what your numbers are so can't really say for sure. As active as you are, it's the only thing I can think of off the top of my head.

    Hey Pmm5pla, been reading, try dropping calories by 250 and see what happens. FYI acaloriecounter.com has some great info. Welcome Chel325, I sent you a friend invite.

    Hi Team, I must apologize for my lack of exercise minutes yesterday and today. I'm down with a stomach bug that my wonderful boys passed onto me. Hopefully I'll be back to normal tomorrow and will hit the workouts hard for the remaining 3 days.

    Feel better first, dittybugdesigns. And listen to your body. We will all be just fine if you need a few days off!

    TY Headrain, all minutes now logged. Still not sure where to log squats? Team 3 thread or main thread? Squat challenge complete through day 10. Back finally starting to loosen up....the old wait three days and see rule. Hope to be more active by the weekend. Wishing all Team 3 members determination and stamina! And TY Pmm5pla, your thought is on point!

    Lynn, we don't seem to have a spot to note the squat challenge yet as that is a monthly challenge. Just keep track of how you are doing and we will get it all figured out!

    Thank you all for the warm welcome and friend requests!! I'm going to read up about this challenge as I have no idea what's going on and what I need to do!

    I just saw someone on my new feed speak about this and I decided to join!

    Do I need to add my name and stats to the spreadsheet? I'm not sure how to and I don't want to mess up everything.

    And are the miles we complete actually minutes of activity we do a day?

    Welcome to the team. Yes, you need to add your name. And yes, "miles" are actually minutes of activity. And of course there are other fun road blocks you can do too. This week there are three. One is a dance. The video is posted. Give that a try if you'd like.

    Thanks everyone! I'm still down and at this point I'm hoping to just feel normal by tomorrow. Trying to stay hydrated but I've lost 10 pounds in 24 hours and it's all fluid! After all of this the least I deserve is for the weight to stay off

    Hope you feel better dittybugdesigns. Yeah only if the weight stayed off!
    Could not get online yesterday at all. So miss on the accountability. Still going strong with Squat/sugar and arm challenge. I have decided this is the thread (along with the spreadsheet)where I will post updates, instead of a million others!

    We start by liking ourselves; in fact, it's really critical that we do. So, this weekend... do something beautiful for yourself, whatever that may be.

    Today has been a really tired day. I'm going to go walk and try to get my minutes in.

    I was in a weekday hustler challenge through fitbit. I was so far behind. I set a goal of getting my 10 flights of stairs, then reaching my 10,000 step quota, then I felt if I pushed it I could come in second. Once I passed 2nd, I decided to rack up some active minutes for us. After awhile I got so invested that I wanted to pull a crazy up set and devastate the leader when she wakes up. I ended up doing earning 10 badges and doing 40,000+ steps this evening by running up and down the stairs and jogging throughout the house. My legs wobbled a couple times when I lost focus and it felt really good to sit after. I'll know within 12 hours if I won. Either way it paid off for active minutes for us. I just did 246 minutes tonight. Go Team 3 (or whatever name we decide on)

    Crikey, well done! I'm not getting in the ring with you...

    Reminds me of the puzzle... You're in a race, and you pass the guy (girl) in 2nd place. What position are you now in? Answers please. No Googling...
