    I'm with you Angel... I hate jumping jacks! (I'm thinking a man came up with these challenges ....)

    It had to be a man! They don't have to worry about bouncing and flopping in the chest area as much! Lol.

    Welcome Amy to the Team! Great to have you! I will let Joyous tell you what you need to do as I'm not sure of the rules of someone starting in the middle. If you go back a few pages, you will see this weeks daily challenges if you want to see what we have been doing. We are on the one that says "Week 2".

    Glad to have you!

    What in the world is a burpee? Do I really wanna know?? LOL

    I commit to 500 crunches.

    I'm at 8 miles today for this week!

    I'm under by over 400 cals today!! Woo hoo! If that scale doesn't move tomorrow, I'm going to cry!

    Tomorrow is going to be tough for calories, going to a huge party with tons of food. Going to workout like crazy before I go and pray there are at least a few healthy choices.

    3 checks for me today!!

    I'll have you know that I didn't want to do ANYTHING today but I thought of all you folks and I had to do it for YOU!!!

    50 globe things that sucked tremendously - check
    100 JJs - yep still causing black eyes
    100 stairs - this was kind of easy since I have to go up and down stairs to let my dogs out all, day long... cause they don't know whether they want to be in or out...

    Ohh BTW - hit 10 miles!!!! Whoop whoop to me!

    Water - yep
    Calories - yep
    Whatever else there is - yep
