Also, a little bit of challenge history for ya... my old co-captain started a new team and took my highest mile contributer with her. They're team 6, they're only 70 points behind us overall and they are ahead of us in the weekly standings by 20 points. They're catching up quick, and we need to beat them! Let's go team!!
Also, remember we've got some drop outs. We've got to pick up their slack or there's no way we can be contenders. @Calli1616 was a huge contributor, so she'll me a tough loss!1 -
@SmashleyM914 will we get replacements for the drop outs?0
-
According to hawkins410 there will not be replacements next week.
Okay, I despise the MUVE videos. I couldn't even keep my sons attention during 2 of them, "I'm bored mom. These are so boring mom. I want to do the konichiwa ones mom." Ugh! Did the first two one time through, gonna have to stick the rest out by myself

Life is just getting so incredibly busy. It's proving to be harder and harder to commit the time required for this whole challenge =\ But please don't take that as an implication that I'm not going to stick with it! I will! I've been under calories every day so far this week. Still have more MUVE videos to do (I agree, they're not very exciting). I'll run on my lunch break again. This whole taper thing pre-race is driving me nuts. My first time doing it and I feel like a louse in comparison to my normal workouts :P It's also SUPER cold (late teens/early 20s F) in the mornings so I've only been able to do lunchtime runs, which limits my time. Sigh. Hope everyone else is getting some minutes in! We can overcome!4

Today we had a Thanksgiving potluck at work...so much food...I didn't want to walk at lunch, but wanted to just sit...but I said self, you ate all this food, and you haven't done all 4 miles, out you go. So I walked for the better part of my 30 minute lunch, and finished the last 1.2 miles of my 4 miles for the challenge!!4

Hi all!
I went for a really long walk/run this afternoon. I wanted to maximize my sunshine time outside, as I cannot imagine that we will get another sunny 72F day until spring. My facebook memories shows a picture that I had taken with snow on the ground (which they say will be happening tomorrow)
I can't get into the MUVE videos either. I don't know why. I will get them done though. I went over on calories yesterday, but I am sure I will be fine today & tomorrow.
I am off to get more sunshine & soak my sore muscles in the hot tub!

Hi everyone,
I'm half way through the Muve videos. Went for another 5 mile walk today. It was beautiful here today. I will finish the videos tomorrow. I have 4 days under calories but I doubt I will be today. I'm going to a "Paint and Sip" event with a bunch of friends. I guess you drink wine and paint pictures. I can hardly draw stick figures so this should be interesting.
Happy Friday3 -
Hello, my Fitbit is my biggest motivater for me and usally reach my step goal everyday during the week but the weekends are tough! My goal is to reach my steps for Saturday & Sunday this weekend! I have completed 2 challenges so far working on the videos this weekend which will also helps my step goals right!!! So happy it's Friday!6

@lynnbaum Those look delicious!
Sorry team, I didn't do anything yesterday. We finished the training for my husband's dialysis and I was just done. I was asleep by 9. I did get up this morning though and started the CT5k program again. I've never made it past week 2. Maybe this time is the time I complete it.
2 challenges done and I'll complete the videos
today.5 -
@darcijojo stick to C25K! Don't focus on the distances it tells you to run, focus on the time you need to run. Speed can be worked on. I quit the program so many times until I started doing going with that method, now I'm on week 7! I'm struggling now though because running on the treadmill is awful for me and it's getting too cold to run outside.
I'm having spreadsheet issues, can someone check if I put my Friday minutes in? Also, I completed the videos this morning and earned my challenge points for the under calorie goal challenge. I'm heading to the gym with the hubby after meeting with our travel agent, if I can't get into the sheets tonight I'll post my total exercise minutes in here later.
Thank you to whoever gets those numbers in for me, happy Saturday!!

@SmashleyM914 It looks like you got it in. 95 minutes?
I've completed the No leftover challenge and the videos just need one more mile in and I'll have that. I was able to log another mile while waiting to pick up my granddaughter again yesterday. The sky was threatening but I made it without getting even a drop!
I'm still cleaning. Main floor is just about done. Basement needs a lot of attention still.3 -
I have all my challenges done!! YEEEE HHHAAA it is so cold here from yesterday. 60-70 yesterday and 30-40 today.
I added 3 glasses of wine and only drank 1 because I was just to tired. The calorie tracking was hard but I sure did say no a lot more then I use to.4 -
Muve videos are completed, much to the amusement of my daughter. I have to work for a bit but will be going to the gym after (going to work in my gym clothes lol). I will finish the no leftover challenge today.
After a high of 74 yesterday, it was just snowing today... Blech.3 -
Great job team! We are in first place for the week! I don't think that has ever happened nearing the end of the week!4
-
Just finished the MUVE videos! Now I have that "I love my Huli Huli chicken wings" song in my head :P Got six miles in this morning, my last longer run before my half marathon on Thursday. And I've been under calories every day. Just gotta get to the spreadsheet on my desktop to mark it all off. Happy Saturday, everyone!5
-
@SmashleyM914 I was on the treadmill this morning. It wasn't awful. I didn't push the speed and I was surprised that I could run for the full minute. Could have probably gone a bit longer, but that will happen next week. Good job on getting to week 7!2
-
GUYS. I weighed in today and got the surprise of a lifetime. I am officially under 200 lbs. 199.4, to be exact. Now, that may not seem amazing to you, but I have been overweight or obese nearly my entire life. I actually hit over 400 lbs a few years back. I literally do not ever remember weighing under 200 lbs, even as a kid. This also means I'm less than 10 lbs from my goal weight of 190. I'm 6 feet tall and have very big bones, so who knows where exactly I will end up. I just had to share. I literally gasped when I saw the scale and teared up. So much hard work, so many ups and downs have led to this huge milestone in my life, and it's challenges like this one that keep me active, keep me moving, and help me get there. So so happy right now 9

Yes @darcijojo be patient, you'll get to the longer running times proud of you!! Keep me updated on your progress

@carinamenina What a wonderful accomplishment! Your in Onederland! Yippee! I've been working towards Onederland for almost 2 years now and I have 42 more lbs to go:-( This year has been a struggle for me I've hit a plateau and I've been trying to stay positive. Reading of your success is very inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing.3
-
@carinamenina Congratulations!! It is a great accomplishment.
@mcdonald1314 - I entered all of your info.
@Fitbug92 - Thanks for the beautiful pictures. It was beautiful here today but we are suppose to get snow tomorrow. I guess winter is about to arrive.
Finished the last of the challenges today. We have had a great week!

Thank you, everyone! I hope it didn't sound like I was bragging. It was my goal to get under 200 lbs by the end of 2016 and I just can't believe I got there and early, too
You are all doing amazing, by the way. Keep it up. Love our team 4 -
@carinamenina You have earned the right to brag a little. Congratulations!
@SmashleyM914 Thank you!
We have kicked some butt this week as a team. WTG! Maybe those other two teams will take some time off this next week so we can catch up.
