    Not gonna lie...wish I had slacked this past week. lol.

    Who ever wishes they slacked?
    Who ever regretted going to the gym?

    No, I don't think you do. I'm proud of you!


    So glad we all have the points this week especially since I joined late, and our team lost 2 people in the beginning...this gives us level playing field and the time to "adjust" to this challenge. Now we know what we're up against:

    -making time in our day to do this
    -committing ourselves to log in ever day
    -forcing ourselves to drink more water (this alone helps me lose weight)

    Let's FLAG / BOOKMARK this page for our exercise next week and LET'S BUST SOME BOOTY!!!

    ARGGHHHHHH! (and whatever else warriors say when they charge!)

    8/1 - Completed exercise and food challenge.
    Drank at least 9 glasses of water today; had to make up for some excess sodium.

    8/2 - Sorry guys, couldn't get the +1 mile; tendonitis has me sitting around. Calories shouldn't be a problem though. :D

    8/3 & 8/4 - Didn't get a chance to post last night; crappy dinner (nutrition wise, both days) but I was under my calories and managed to get the challenges done for both days; always drink 8+ glasses of water so that part wasn't a problem on either day.
    8/5 - Completed exercise and food challenge.

    *EDIT: Also, google calendar has been updated with this weeks challenges.

    ** EDIT2: I can tell you Sunday how many extra miles I should be able to contribute.

    Since this is "extra" miles only and since I walk an average of 30 miles per week normally, I will pledge to walk and EXTRA 10 miles for a total of 40 miles next week. Now, if I end up walking more than 10, will that count for the team or does it need to be pledged in advance to count? I would think whatever you walk counts!

    I will be on the west coast next week so I will be waking up before dawn so I might be able to walk more than 10 extra.

    Go Team BOOTIE BUSTERS!! These excercizes are getting harder but please don't think you can't do them plus the water. I promisue you, YOU HAVE A FULL 24 HOURS to do every one of them! You can do this is you don't think about it - just do it!!

    I'm going to need some modifications for the mountain climbers and the globe jumps please. I think I'll be okay with everything else. Also, stair climbs...there aren't any stairs around here to climb. Thanks.

    For the mountain climbers, you can modify them by doing this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvMY-wklqr4

    When I need to do stair climbers and don't have time to go to the gym and there are no stairs around, I just use the step stool I have in the kitchen. It has two steps and I find a place where I can steady myself (near a wall or furniture I can grab to stabilize) and do them that way...

    You can do this! Good luck!
