    I don't feel like any of this is TMI. It reminds us all how we are all diverse, but similar. Everyone's stories remind me that we are human but we are strong. We have been through very hard times but we made it and are hopefully wiser because of it. I know for every challenge I have faced in my life, I have gained wisdom, strength and built character.

    Thank you all for sharing your stories and reminding us all how strong we are!

    By the way, it was 100 degrees yesterday. Drinking all that water was no problemo, if it stays hot like this, I will end up drinking enough water for the whole BTA team lol.

    day 4:

    under calories
    up and downs complete
    drank all my water

    :)

    I think the "secret challenge" is teams just adding more to the day's challenge... like squats, jumping jacks, ect... but that's just what I have been seeing but I don't know if it's the secret challenge or not...

    Me either so I put it as 5mins jumping jacks xx

    I found all the other exercises relatively easy except the Ups&Downs and I dont like being beaten so I might try them again today :grumble:

    Also, do we weigh-in on Sunday morning or Monday morning!?! And when do we find out next weeks challenges (i hope theres no repeated ones) xx

    Again, I am impressed with everyone here being very honest and truthful. We could all lock our diaries down and just say "I did everything." No one here is doing that. Everyone is being honest and forthwright when they miss something.

    I AM PROUD TO BE PART OF SUCH AN ETHICAL TEAM!!!!!

    This is one of my favorite sayings when I feel like I messed up.

    "It is inevitable that some defeat will enter even the most victorious life. The human spirit is never finished when it is defeated...it is finished when it surrenders."

    We may struggle....but we will never surrender!

    NEVER SURRENDER!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

    So the secret challenge didn't have any details other than they are planning some sort of secret thing during the challenge. Sorry to be so vague I was reading it on some other teams boards. <--- hope that's not unethical :happy: I say you have to know what you're up against in order to change your plan of attack!

    That's not unethical....that's gorilla warfare! LOL

    I looked at a couple of them too and want to mention for future reference, that Gary told them all that if they could switch the exercise days around to fit their schedules. One team asked if they could switch out one day for the other because one of their members was doing a work thing and had absolutely no way to do the mile on that day. They are being told that they can switch around the exercise to fit their schedules, as long as they do all the exercises, one a day, on the list by the end of the week.

    Captain Netty, I thought I would mention that in case one of our members gets in a bind too.

    So that means that anyone who missed any of the exercises could catch up either today or tomorrow right? :bigsmile:

    Also I completed everything early today because I'm about to go to work with my packed lunch/dinner and will be in bed when i finish at 1am lol.

    50 Pushups completed
    Food diary completed
    Water: 8 glasses down and still going ...
