"WeLosersWin" Closed

I'm with you. most of my excise comes from swimming, but i can go hit the bikes also. I am not much for riding so I am not sure what a logical amount would be. How about you choose the distance see you are a rider, lol. I will put forth the effort to what you think is good....let us know

Message from the head boss:
Hi there,
I wanted to follow up with everyone and see how you all thought this week went for the challenge. How does everyone feel about the points system? I've had a couple suggestions that the method of calculating points isn't entirely fair. I don't want anyone to feel that they're being short changed because of the way the points are calculated. If this is a common feeling throughout players, maybe a more fair way to calculate points is to go by calories burned? X calories burned = 10 points? And then we could keep the nutrition/exercise challenges at their current point values?

Speaking of the nutrition/exercise challenges - how did everyone feel they went this week? Were they too difficult? Not difficult enough? Anyone have any suggestions for other exercises we can do? This week, I focused on abs. Maybe next week, we can focus on another area.

I want to make sure that everyone remains motivated and on board!

Also, one last thing - does anyone have any team members that are not participating?? Please let me know. I want to be sure that everyone is on a level playing field.

Thanks all! I look forward to all of your feedback!

You didnt let anybody down! I think we all had a bad week. I am at the "want to fizzle out" point but I know that I can't. I know that I have to keep going if I want to accomplish my goal. That is where I am hoping/know that this fitness challenge will help me. (expecially being captain) I know I have to report everybody's numbers in.

If anybody is feels they are losing steam, It helped me to go in and read some of the sucess stories in the community tab. Expecially those that have lost 100+ pounds. It shows we really can do this

We can do this! We can do this!

You can do this! You can do this! You can do this! You can do this !

We all joined this site because we wanted something different in our lives, whether it be weight loss, eating better, or just wanting to be able to the simple things in life, like to tie our shoes without struggling (thats me, my belly gets in the way), or being able to walk upstairs without beinging winded. (thats me too)

So lets get our minds and hearts going again and relight our sparkler, we can do this we deserve it!

GO GIRLS

and for anybody that wants to vent, jump on in there, we will listen
