yes, everything is working today ... i didnt think my comment went through because when i sent it , it said
i could not send a blank message . it might have been temporary bug .

Shame I haven't been paying attention because I'm usually up on news, what are they rioting over there?

Why did I always assume you was a brit :indifferent: ..... LOL! Moving on .....

The whole of SE of London is basically being burgled and smashed up for no real reason to be honest.
It started off that a police officer shot a black guy for no reason so all the black london residents started rioting and then everyone followed suit. Then it turns out the guy was shot because actually HE had pulled a gun on the officer - the real reason isnt clear but basically all the thugs and youths of today and robbing jewellery stores and electrical stores and theres nothing anyone can do about it. It's gone on for four days and has spread further out now. Up to the midlands, central london, the whole of the south of the UK - the rioters have actually forgotten why theyre there and have said on TV ludacris claims like "We're getting our tax back" or because "the government doesnt respect them" LOL last night they actually started breaking into peoples houses and cars ... basically no one is safe and you cant go anywhere anymore! I said to my fella it's like the film 28 days later :laugh:

On a sad note:

Our team member colormelean hasnt logged on in 5 days. "/

Oh balls :-(

I've completed my swimmer thingys and the mile, no additional ones tho (except the 1.7 I did yesterday) will try and get 2 miles in tomorrow xx

WOW!! I was thinking of you today and asked my BF (who is a news junkie, what was going on!) He explained and I said, well where is their National Guards? Where is their military? He was like "I don't know". I can't imagine, no wonder you were trying to calculate "beating a looter" on your exercise tracker!!!

Alright! Today I was good on water, calories, swimmers press with 1 extra mile, and I did an additional 1.2 miles just for a little extra.

water- drank
mile- ran
swimmer presses- done
calories- under

woooohoooo!!!

BTW I usually do jazzercise or Jillian Michaels videos for my cardio but to get these extra miles in this week and the extra 5 I decided to start the c25k app that you can get on your phone. I just started, and of course this was day 1, but it has you run/brisk walk in intervals and tells you have far you have gone and your fastest time and I think it's pretty cool so I thought I would share

Total mileage for today: 1.86

Sorry, didn't check in last night. Ended up having to go sit in a hospital CCU waiting room all evening for a sick uncle. I am good on everything except I didn't get the swimmer's presses in. I'll work on them tonight hopefully. I did end up walking 4 1/2 miles yesterday.

Everything done for the day and made up my swimmer's presses...gonna feel all that tomorrow!

Thanks Stephanie. He's been sick for a few years and just been going downhill. It was expected.

hey peeps!!

sorry i've not logged on for while been really busy!!

So far this week ive completed all the exercise challenges inc. 2 of my 5 extra miles AND drank all 8 glasses of water everyday!! Sadly i did go over on calories on monday but i'll work hard for the rest of the week and hopefully still have a loss this week!!

Everyones doing such a great job i'll do my bit to keep it up!!

For Wednesday:
-Check on Water
-Check on Mountain Climbers & Crunches
-Check on an extra 1.2 miles (total 3.9)
-Not check on calories. I had two beers at dinner and they were more calories than I thought so I went over by 68. :frown:
