Challenge 1

Chose challenge 2 from week 2 a 5km outdoor run. I love to run outside and having dedicated, dependable running partners is a bonus.

This is red, it's probably because it's a challenge 2 challenge and you chose challenge 1

Challenge 2
I choose the Venice week 5 option of seated workout. I broke my foot and so pounding exercises are not some thing I can do this week

gawworthington

Challenge #3
I ate all my veggies

Cabbage, grapes, celery, apple, and lettuce

I have been trying to post for the last hour and it wont open for me Can you add 60 mins a day with challenge 2 & 3 points. I broke my foot and could not do as much as normal.

Well done to all the teams, I am sure I can speak for all and say that we have had a fantastic time. A very big thank you as always to @MissionEnforcer and @hawkins410 for their hard work and dedication in putting together such a wonderful challenge. I do hope there will be another one

PhedraJD

Great job Team Six Pack! You guys did a wonderful job! Thank you to all of you who did their best, helped out on the boards and covering for your team mates. I enjoyed working with all of you guys. I hope we will have a chance to race together again!

azsundancer

I am looking forward to the next race .. Thank you @Hawkins410, @MissionEnforcer and Team Six!!

GrandmaJackie

I REALLY enjoyed this race, the way we stepped up and helped each other. Unfortunately, some didn't realize how important the challenges were. This wasn't about coming in fist but at try to finish the challenges. There were about 5 that were able to max out mins, yay for those who did!!!! But not everyone was able to, I want to thank those to at least completed the challenges every week . Consistency in challenges are the key.

Looking forward to our next race!!!!

@Tazieisland Thank You

I just wanted to let everyone know, that they usually will leave the group open so if you want to continue checking in here you can. I enjoyed working with all of you guys on our journey to a healthier us.

I greatly enjoyed this race as well! Bummed about no Spring Race, but excited for the next Summer Race!

PhedraJD

I could probably do something for our team if everyone/anyone is interested. It wouldn't be put together like Hawkins does, but I could make a tracking website, and maybe we could take turn putting challenges together. Let me know if anyone is interested.

@jdelaroy
I think that would be great! I'd participate! I was thinking of doing the videos again just because anyway, so would be fun and encouraging to do it with others!

So one of the challenges was to give up a bad habit and I was going to do my most beloved soda but changed to chocolate. Well, I'm doing it now. Yesterday was my first day wth no diet soda aka caffeine, and I'm still up and walking! And no headache!

GrandmaJackie

I'm l'm also interested plus this would help us stay on track,

PhedraJD

Awesome guys! I will try and put a sheet together this weekend. We can start on Monday.

Plus anyone can feel free to jump aboard ANYTIME, it works for them

PhedraJD

I had an excellent day exercising yesterday, but I think I undid it all with gobs of sugar.

TrkyVic0327

I love this idea! Yes! I am definitely not as motivated to log everything in to MFP since this challenge has ended. Also, life got a bit busier for me this past week with prepping for state testing with my daughter. I will be glad when that is over in a couple of weeks!

And my husband has been sick for 3 weeks now and we just found out it's from vitamin D deficiency and we've known about his severe allergies. He's been no help meal prepping or anything, so I've felt like I'm drowning trying to do this all by myself. He's doing all he can just to go to work everyday, so I will be happy when he helps out with eating well again, because it's a team effort for sure. I don't know how anyone does it alone or without the help of your significant other and immediate family members. Kudos to you if you do that!

This past week was awful with eating, but I count it a victory that everyone was fed, I kept schooling my daughter, and the house didn't go full tornado on me(you know, where it looks like a tornado has gone through your house kind of mess). Monday is my birthday and the first day of state testing. So, it's basically going to suck as far as Birthday goes, but at least it doesn't fall on Easter this year like it did last year! Lol!

Anyways, thanks for listening to my rambling. I needed it!

Hope you all have an awesome weekend!

~ Vicki

PhedraJD

Oh man that is rough! Everyone fed and helping your daughter is truly a win. Happy birthday!

Rigibann

I can so relate with you Vicki, I have had such a bad week with eating out most days, cakes and chocolates in the office and no motivation to keep up the exercise - hence putting on a whopping 5 pounds. Before this I have been stuck at the same weight for ages so it's time to take proper stock. I am going to give the 5:2 eating plan a go if only to kick start myself back on track.

I never thought that I would lose so much motivation when the challenges finished. I still have one going and hopefully Hogwarts will be back for their new term soon - so Team Six or Sixpack let's still do this together

Maalea

It was a great challenge, I am just sorry that I did not engage as much as I wanted to with the group. There was always something coming up, and time got short.
But I always enjoyed reading all your comments, they motivated me to keep up with everything!

So if there is going to be an unofficial race, I am in!

And I will try my best to be more active in the forum.

Yesterday, was a wash for me too, those darn brownies I made for my husband, :'(

Since it seems lodging and just eating healthy has been a problem for everyone. Let's just make this simple and starting Mon - Sun, give up a bad habit, (example, late night eating, chocolate, chips,). Instead of making it for a certain amount of days, whoever accomplishes this the most day, picks the next challenge. If it's a tie, @jdelaroy picks the winner.

Does this sound okay,

Rigibann

Sounds good to me Jackie - now I need to think of what I shall give up!

TrkyVic0327

I like it, Jackie!

I'm going to give up soda and sweet tea. I love tea without any sweeteners, so I don't know why I insist on getting them in it! Here's to a great week, Sixpack!
