    Hi everyone! Can't wait to get started :bigsmile:

    Is there anyway to get a little bit of a smaller team banner? I already have one for another team & I'm afraid my signature will take up half a page!

    Alright ladies...first, please forgive me for today's post delay. I was working some things out behind the scenes! Okay, here are the answers to your questions...

    Question 1: WHAT ARE UP AND DOWNS?

    Answer:

    UPS and DOWNS

    http://www.youtube.com/user/sixpackshortcuts?v=bkD9LwDBWW0&feature=pyv&ad=7237549087&kw=exercise

    The very first part of this exercise is the up and downs. They may be modified by simply starting on all 4's and then standing up quickly and returning to this position to all 4's. This is a cardio exercise! Don't be freaked out but all he is doing just do the first part and modify if needed.

    REMEMBER ITS THE VERY FIRST THING HE DOES ON THE FLOOR that's it! Unless you are a real rockstar then finish it out if you can. It's a crazy exercise. Be ready for great exercises you can do at home without anything!


    QUESTION 2: Instead of going by weight in numbers, wouldn't percentages be fair?

    ANSWER: Gary indicated that he would have to ponder on that one because he tried to balance the teams out. He will
    get back with us.

    QUESTION 3: Where and what should we be sending you?

    ANSWER: You should be sending me your starting weight,a realistic goal for the month and any challenge suggestions(see previous posts to know the specific challenges) to my inbox. If you have posted it here, it's okay. If you have already sent it to me...THANKS!

    Gary has now made it a bit more interesting by requesting pictures taken at least within the last seven days (or by tomorrow). Here is what he is thinking of doing IF we can get full participation...

    " Encourage all of your folks to take a current full body pic before Monday. Have them send it to you. At the end of the challenge we will have them take another pic and send that to you. I'll compile all of the pics and we can do a before and after photo slide show. I'm going to do a prize for the winner of the biggest transformation. I'll narrow it down to the top 10 and let everyone vote! It'll be a blast!"

    Now some of the team captains are having a hard time contacting and getting the required info from their teams, so I am not sure if we will do the picture part, but I want us to be ready in case we do. Also, you do not have to send the pics to me. We are grown and I trust you guys to take a FRESH picture, no specific pose just regular before pics...I think I will take a few.

    I currently have a request in to get modifications and descriptions to each exercise and will post them as SOON as I get them. If your question has not been answered here, it is probably because it was more of a personal or singular issue.So,check your inbox.

    Let's GO FLAB TO FAB! We can do it! We will do it! Consider it done!

    Okay, I did not want the other post to be too long...YEAH RIGHT...LOL! First, I want to say THANK YOU...THANK YOU...THANK YOU Flab 2 Fab members. I can honestly say that I am not having HALF the issues as the other team captains and that's because my team rocks (no offense to them)!

    Throughout the month, I plan to check the forum at least 2-3 times per day (early,midday,evening) and you can always inbox or email me at msmonique0919@yahoo.com. If I am taking a chill out day, I will post it, but will do my best to address your concerns or questions timely. If there is anything further that you need from me, do not hesitate to ask!

    One more thing...sorry...don't forget to take your measurements. You do not have to send them to me, but I want you to keep them just in case the scale's batteries start acting up and your three digits go up! LMBO Sometimes we lose inches and our weight MIGHT plateau! Okay, that's it for tonight...I THINK!

    Thanks for sticking with me and supporting me as your team captain!

    THANKS for the banner! It rocks :happy:

    Do we really have to wait until tomorrow to start? I'm ready, willing & able to get the show on the road (even though today's supposed to be a rest day for me)!!

    If you want to share, what are your goals for the month?
    Here are mine:
    1) I'd love to put down that I want to lose 13.5 pounds, which is 3 lbs a week, but I'm going to keep it realistic. I'm going to go with 9 pounds, which is 2 lbs a week.
    2) I also will finish a 10 mile run
    3) Have my 3 mile run time down to 33 min. I actually think this one might be the hardest to do.

    I'm just curious where everyone's from? I'm in Florida. :glasses:

    Also, I'm gonna change my weight loss goal to 10 pounds. That'll get me under 160!!!

    Oh, I forgot. Are we supposed to e-mail a recent pic?
