Hey team. I always feel so overwhelmed after reading the weeks golden ticket. Then I come in here, read everyone's comments and relax a little. I'm excited for the dancing! My 11 year old was already encouraging me to start a "bad (fill in the blank)" dancing series, so I think I'll add this to my youtube channel too. Over the weekend my sister challenged me to a 10k in May. I ran today. All of this working out that I've been doing does not translate to running that far!! I'm not going to quit though. I'll just do my best. Have a great week everyone.0

My gym has a stair-stepper but I've never used it. How will I calculate flights of stairs. I Googled how many steps in a flight but it varies from 8-14. Should I go somewhere in the middle, like 10?0

After my husband's reaction to my dancing I'm not sure it's safe to put it online! LOL! He really liked it.0 -

My Google said 12...Mr. and Mrs. Google must not have been getting along today. I say go with 10!0 -
Good morning everyone, today I am off to a slow start. I dosed off for a few minutes after my alarm went off this morning, and when I realities I knew I wouldn't get my work out done before my husband got up.
There is always tonight. But this means another night of not doing any stairs.
I can honestly say I am a little scared of doing this work out. I have moved on to week 3 and 4 of Body Revolution, and yesterday didn't go the best. I almost face planted trying to go from plank position to my elbows and back to plank. Reading over this next one doesn't seem bad, but I thought that about the other one.0 -

Hey everyone, I was getting ready to log my Egyptian food, (I randomly stumbled into without trying) and noticed that some people were only logging partial credit. I think as long as you eat one food, that counts. I went back through the thread announcing our destination and this is what I found.

Roadblock #3 - Is it one Egyptian meal over the course of the week? Or one ingredient per day? per meal?

I will take ingredient or meal whatever you want to do.
It doesn't have to be a certain amount of times just an honest try to eat the foods"
I am taking that to mean, if you eat one thing from the area, on one day, you are done. Do you all agree? I just don't want to see us making this harder then it is.0 -
@mswanger09
Oh, then I'm done! I was just doing it the usual one food/day for 5 days...but I like your way much better!! The less Roadblocks to worry about, the better, and we can concentrate on getting those miles in!!0 -
@hawkins410, I am glad that you agree. But that is how two people are interrupting her response.0

First place!! We really are awesome . Making my Eygptian meal .. shakshuka, an egg and tomato dish. I have been eating eating grapes and dates so I guess that would count, but always nice to try something new. Okay now onto tackle the belly dancing!! How is that going for you @diana6ft??0

When I go to work, I have 7 flights of stairs to go up! So there's that twice a day, 5 days a week!0

Hi Everyone
I've been swamped with work but trying to catch up. I've been keeping a post-it not on my desk and tallying (or trying to remember to tally) everytime I go up the stairs. Yesterday was a busy day. Today I had meetings all afternoon, and tomorrow and Thursday our students are doing their mandated state testing - so not as busy. I'm pretty sure I've lost track a few times, but I'm already at 41 flights, so that shouldn't be an issue. I'll do all the videos on my Friday rest day.mswanger09 wrote: »Hey everyone, I was getting ready to log my Egyptian food, (I randomly stumbled into without trying) and noticed that some people were only logging partial credit.

That was also how I interpreted it. So I've been eating grapes. And yesterday I had hummus (saw that when I searched wikipedia). I typically plan out my meals for an entire week, and do my grocery shopping over the weekend. So I'm doing the best I can as I just really don't have the time to make another trip to the grocery store once the work week starts.My gym has a stair-stepper but I've never used it.

I've never used the stair stepper, but I think at the end of the workout it gives you a summary which includes the number of flights of stairs. But maybe that depends on the specific machine.0 -
Hey team, if you already did the nutritional challenge, please go back and make sure you response hits all the bullet points.0
