Oh Lisa....I am sorry to hear about your ankle. I wish you a speedy recovery. I am tracking my steps like you with categories for which steps I go up and then place a slash for every time I go up and down. So I am doing good with this one.

I haven't tracked the 1st 2 days of the week so I have to do it everyday now I am a parcrastinator for sure.....

Melanie, good thing there are seven days in a week!

YOU got that right. I am doing good so far today.

@BJerzy Hope you feel better soon!
@HASWLRS Shame about the ankle! Hope it heals quickly and you can participate in your 5K graduation race.

Dance videos...planned for Friday
Steps I have been tracking everytime I have been going up or down...should not be a problem.
Under calories 2/5 so far

Didn't do much on Monday and Tuesday bit got in an hour's exercise this morning. Yet to update my numbers this week.

@BJerzy --So sorry you are sick. Feel better soon!
@HASWLRS --Oh no!! So sorry about your ankle. I would say don't push it with the running, but I like V's idea about chair dancing.

I'm doing well with the step challenge. I have to go up and down the stairs at work a minimum of twice/day, but I've made a point to find excuses to go an extra time or 2 each day this week. Added to my stair master steps on Monday, I'm trucking along.

I meant to start the dance videos last night, and then I forgot and went to bed. That's okay b/c I really need to do them tonight if I want to end up under calorie goal. I was under on monday and slightly over yesterday. I would like to go into to the weekend with a cushion if possible.

Steps = 704
Dance videos = 0/6
Days under calories = 1/5

Awww hope you guys feel better, get better soon.

Put in some numbers for this week already so yay.
As far as the challenges:
1. 1778/1778 - completed! That was my exercise minutes for the day. Good burn for sure
2. 0/6 videos- will get to them tomorrow or Friday
3. 2/5 under calories days-yay, I'm excited because I'm determined to finally achieve this challenge this week.

Those dance videos are fun! I've added a couple to my youtube playlist, and the stretching one too. Mi nina bonita is my fave!

Just a quick check in..hope all of you struggling or injured or not feeling well have quick recoveries! I love my team thread and support.. i dont always get to post or answer back but you all are a lifeline in this venture and i appreciate you!!

It's been a stressful week here... my youngest kiddo the one on crutches was physically assulted at school. He is doing somewhat better but the week has been spent dealing with xrays and doctors and worry.

I've done well eating.. just not logging so not sure i will be able to backfill to meet this challenge. Steps.. will definitely get that completed..i feel thats all i do up and down..
Videos. May or may not happen depending on my alone time. Todays alone time i came home amd slept for 3 hrs then again for 2 more this evening. Stress i guess but better than eating!

Will log what hours i have when i get a chance... they are a bit fewer though...sorry for that. Maybe i can pick it up this weekend.

@sandkp - sorry to hear about your son, hope he is ok.

I was thisclose to being a couch potato last night. I was feeling sluggish, tired, heavy, even a little cranky. Around 8:30, I started to feel guilty to the team, so I got up off the couch and worked out. Not gonna lie, I was tired. It was tough from start to finish and, I admit, wasn't my best effort. But I did it, and, wouldn't ya know... felt 100% better afterwards. Gets me every time. lol

4/5 food challenge - probably going out for dinner tonight so making salad for lunch, and fruits or veggies for snacks 5/5 5/5 5/5 My mantra for the day.

Have a good one!

Steps = 1446
Dance videos = 6/6
Days under calories = 3/5

Good morning all.

@enuf200 150 calories isn't too much... i am sure you can make it under today!

my fitbit sync to MFP has been off! I was under calories 4/5 this week, but somehow the sync shows zero back for some of the days and says over calories... i messed up Wednesday was definitely over but all others were under (double checked with fitbit register)...plan to be under today too,

Steps completed (thank you work walks-> i purposefully walk up the steps around the top floors and back down again 3 days at the office this week= not a lot of actual workout sessions, but designated walking time, i feel ready to push this body for a great workout this weekend. going to do those dance videos with the kids too.


Somehow we are the only team not in Peru yet. Come on guys we can do this!
