    Nicely done... I might be going for the biggest ever signature at this rate!

    LMAO @ vladikavkaz... my signature doesn't allow me hardly any space, I barely get the code in for my two tickers and the logo :)

    I'm so impressed with the logo that I think caligirl2802 deserves a prize. As such, caligirl2802, you can set a mini-challenge for the team this week.

    It could be something like
    - actually do 3 miles of rowing
    Or a forfiet like
    - person with the lowest calorie burn on x day has to sabotage another team's message board

    Let us know what you choose, o caligirl2802 master of the arts!

    Go to signature (at the top of this page in blue) and edit it so that it reads




    YSLogo-1.png




    but you need to put the in lower case. The letters IMG change to img then it should just pop up in your signature like this.YSLogo-1.png

    You need to chang the upper case to lower case img at both the begining and end of the code. Hope this helps x And the same with the logo here's the codeYSLogo-1.png

    Sorry everyone for my low calorie burns of the last days. My little boy was sick and I'm just too tired to start to exercise right now.
    But I will make up for it as soon as possible, I promise. :)

    Our team mate Bullly has just entered details for the last five days on the spreadsheet as well.

    Certainly has made a difference!

    No need to apologise, you and yours should always come first.

    hope you're all feeling better.

    OK so the mini challenge is..... that the person with the lowest total amount of calories burned this week will have to perform a FORFEIT... the calories will be counted for Monday 04/07 thru Sunday 10/07... the forfeit will be announced on Monday 11/07

    Good luck and happy rowing!! :)

    Ok so i'm in awe of some of the high numbers for calories burned....is this strictly through exercise or including things like housework and stuff, cos i dont want to log stuff that i wouldnt normally log (i.e. cleaning) as i would feel like i was cheating myself.

    The only day to day stuff I log is gardening, because its not something I do very often, and I have a big garden so its a huge effort!
    I don't log housework or things that I'd do ordinaraly every day.

    I'm only logging extra exercise, and my walks to work every day which I do as part of my exercise routine. Oh and gardening as thats not something I do every day.

    Only log things you would normally log.

    Personally I'm set to sedentary as I work in an office so I log things including
    - any intended exercise i.e classes, workouts, runs
    - my cycle commute to and from work
    - occassionaly log gardening if I have actually broken a sweat

    I'm only logging dedicated, purposeful exercise. I don't log cleaning/taking children to school/gardening (my garden is minuscule!) as these are things I would do anyway so I include in my daily activity, which is set to sedentary as I work from home, at my sewing machine. I log my long evening walks, my 30 day shred, my short morning walk and my stationary bike usage. These are all things I wasn't doing when I wasn't trying to lose weight and also things which would go if I stopped exercising and decided I wanted to be a lard *kitten* forever ;-)

    Captain's Log
    Yellow Submarine
    Day 7
    600 miles off the coast of Morocco

    Despite my drunken start to our trip (too much rum on days 1 - 3) the rest of the crew have pulled their weight and we have made good progress on our world trip. Bullly was concerned about us falling of the edge of world and it seemed that he might jump ship but he got it together and was found secretly rowing in the lower deck. Meanwhile caligirl2802's artistic talents have kept the crew's morale up through the stormy seas. ClareB1974 has worked like a machine this week, consistently rowing hard every day. On Day 4 we encountered some good currents and doubled our expected distance. We continue to make good progress. On Day 5 we encountered an enemy pirate ship called the Vita Sana. While the scumbags tried to board our ship we managed to take one of their crew hostage and the Vita Sana fled. While this prizoner originally seemed like an assest, they were bringing ship morale down with their talk of pillaging and such, the scallywag walked the plank at sunset.

    Indeed, gave me a smile!

    Sorry about today though, shipmates, it's a self imposed 'rest day' for me. Aiming to go like the clappers tomorrow though.
