    I, unfortunately did not see the extra challenge until just now :( I AM going to do them today. Those up/downs were crazy... I couldn't jump so I had to modify them. I tried and tried but I couldn't get my feet to jump up. Even my 13yr old was like "come on! You can do it!" so anyways modifications made and him and I did them together. ALL OF THEM! Every # we counted, which was a slow process, we made it a game to associate it with something in our lives. I.e. 13 (how old he is) they killed me, but I did it!

    Under calories: Check!
    Water: check! 12 cups

    GOOOOOOOD MORNING TEAM WITHERING A WEIGH!!!!

    I see from some of our posts and check-ins that we really are doing just that... withering away!!! :bigsmile:

    Fabulous work on the challenges!! AND the extra challenges - WOW!!!

    I have to tell you - we ALL got a break... for those that did not post this week... Gary is allowing us to have full credit since it was the first week and we were working out the bugs.

    Here is where I go all MILITANT on you... If you are going to continue - I NEED YOU TO POST DAILY RESULTS IN HERE!!! If I do not see posts from you for more than 2 days with no explanation (sick, no computer at home, etc) - I will stop tracking your points. You can continue in the challenges on your own and please, PLEASE stick with MFP for your health - but I have a full time job, a hubby, and three kids to handle... in addition to that - I am in school trying to complete my bachelor's degree. In other words... I DON'T HAVE TIME TO HUNT YOU DOWN FOR YOUR INFO!

    There are a few people that have not posted many results - if any at all - since the beginning. They will be getting a private message from me asking if they wish to continue. This is nothing personal and I won't take it personal either. I will still have you on my friend list if you don't want to do the challenge! :)

    Here are the challenges for today and tomorrow. DRINK YOUR WATER! STAY UNDER YOUR CALORIES!!!

    Day 5 Exercise Challenge – 25 Pushups *
    Day 6 Exercise Challenge – 25 Squat Lunges*

    (Reminder - these can be modified!!)

    GET TO IT!!!

    Hello my name is Tammy. Sorry I haven't intoduced myself yet but I am new to MFP and don't understand how the site works just yet. I am 44 years old and married with no kids. I do have 6 pug dogs and I am an Optician (pugs4eyes). I started my weight loss process at 292 and got down to 148. I got married last year and went through female cancer and had to have surgery that put me into menopause and I gained about 24 pounds. I am at 164 today and I have a goal of losing 4-5 pounds during August. My issue is I am so busy lately that I am trying to work exercise and track all my food. I need all the help I can get. Tammy

    Hi Team-

    Reporting in for the day.
    I may be a day late and a dollar short on this, but I did 50 mountain climbers today. I didn't see the challenge until I was done for the day yesterday. So sorry peeps I have caused us to lose out on on some points...

    On a positive note:
    50 push ups = Done
    8 glasses of Water = Drank
    Calories = Under

    Ready for the weekend and the 7 mile run I have to do tomorrow. Hope y'all have an awesome weekend!

    Day 5, week 1

    Under calories (as of right now I need to consume 203 more to get out of the negative)
    Up to 9 cups of water and counting
    Did my 25 push ups
    Walked 100 steps, jogged 100 steps
    Did 20 sets of the Globe jumps
    Got down and attempted the Crab Touches but I lack the arm strength to support myself in that position on one arm. :-( Not sure how to modify a Crab Touch either.


    Also, do we weigh in on Sunday or Monday? I thought it was Monday but I see others saying they are weighing in on Sunday. Thanks!!
