    So it's the same thing every week? That's cool...just didn't know. I've had the worst personal couple of days that I've had in a LONG time. Sorry to let you guys down. I feel so let down in other ways (life). It's not fair. I'll try to keep it up.

    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

    I misunderstood what rest day was, so we need to pick a day, How about Wednesday this week and then we can go to Sundays, this is how it works.

    None of your workouts for rest day count. The idea is to get your team to drink their water. Each cup of water that your team drinks is worth 10 points, up to a team max of 500 points. Exercise challenge doesn't count for whichever day you choose as rest day, but the nutrition challenge does. So, if each of your team members drinks 10 cups of water PLUS does the nutrition challenge for that day, your team can earn 525 points.

    You need to choose a day between now and Thursday to have your rest/water day, since we're already through most of the week. You should probably confer with your teammates and decide which day and make sure everyone understands how it works. Please let me know as soon as possible which day THIS week you'd like to do.

    If you want to use Sunday NEXT week, that will be fine.

    How come we cannot choose our own rest day each week? Somedays just aren't good days. Also I haven't seen any challenge except for week one. Is every week the same?

    Maybe it is just easier to keep track of it. Sometimes it is hard to keep track of 5 people, I cant imagine being the top dog and have to to keep track of 50 people. Sometimes no day seems good for eating right, and excercises, but one thing I am learning is that we just have to make it happen.

    Have a great day

    Thank Captain! I should have looked here first.

    Sal - you're doing great!
    Hart - bummer about the man problems. Hope things get better.
    Crsti - thanks for organizing us!

    ps - I am in a 100+ to lose thread that I absolutely LOVE. We have done a challenge each month and they are very simple and not difficult to organize. The girl that started this one said she wanted one that wasn't asadvanced as others on MFP but I have to say it has way to many people in it to be manageable!!! I don't know how things get tracked even close to accurately!!

    In my 100+ group our August Challenge was to walk the Appalachian trail as a group. We each pledged the # of miles we thought we could achieve (personal goals are the best). We made sure we had enough people to do the 2100 or so miles in 30 days and made a google spreadsheet. We each post our own miles daily (walk,swim, bike, whatever) and we have 1 leader who updates the common ticker daily. I pledged 100 miles and have done nearly 160 now! So much fun and very motivating. Next month we are doing a triathalon. Teams of 3 and we can also choose to do a solo triathalon as well.
