    MISSING A SPREADSHEET????

    I made a (mostly) blank one from mine! Please do not enter your data directly to this link as multiple people may be accessing it. You can make your own from it by doing the following: FILE---> Make a copy... ---> Rename with your username instead of YOUR NAME HERE. Once you do that you can go back through (in your newly renamed file) and add your old data if you want, but make sure to at least put your name and starting weight at the top!

    If you all would like me aboard I can stay, however I won't be much good other than weighing in. I don't really have time for challenges :\ so by all means get someone who can attempt the challenges!

    Sadly, I will have to say that I just don't have the time right now. Things are so busy! :)

    I would love to stay aboard as a supporter though - if you guys will have me.

    Thanks for the fun!

    Checking in - I went 5/5 every day last week (but I do that anyway usually)

    I still want to roll but maybe we only need 2 teams now?

    I worked it hard with my trainer yesterday so I am going to say it counts as the same even though I didn'tdo QUITE those motions (I did use the punching bag though).

    Rather than using wrist weights, try just holding small free weights -- you have more control over the way the weight shifts. Be careful though, you need to use controlled punchign motions or you can really hurt yourself. I do this exercise with my trainer - wide stance, knees slightly bent, punch the weight out, pull it back in, punch out, pull in. etc.

    Also if you get bored you can do something I did yesterday - Straight punch left arm, hook right arm, upper cut left arm, then straight punch right arm, hook left arm, upper cut right arm. Rinse, repeat. Gets you a nice variety of motion instead of just punches.

    *edit* OH and for my mini challenge I think I am just going to focus on slightly healthier eating, I have really let the food slip a good bit. Still within calories but eating MORE food at each meal instead of leaving myself extra calories to have snacks and stuff. I think I am just taking a few too many bites at each meal. I used to be so good about leaving some food on my plate.

    thanks for the advice just healing a shoulder injury so don't want to cause any damage!

    hey you're doing well, the punches are killing me as i have a damaged shoulder tendon. So just taking it easy & not using weights. Crazy thing is i'm doing exercise, eating healthy (staying in the green) drinking loads of water/green tea & yet i seem to be gaining 0.5-1lb a day. Monday i was 178.4 this morning 182.4! HELP

    Thanks, Stephanie, for stepping in as our new Captain! Sorry I havent checked in in a while but thingd have been super duper crazy. I finished last week's challenge

    500/500 punches and
    250/250 bicycle thingies.

    I also completed my mini challenge of jogging/walking 10 miles.

    I am super psyched about the recharged challenge and looking forward to kicking serious *kitten*!!!

    I just finished reading World War Z which is going to be made into a movie starrign Brad Pitt. It got me right back into the perfect Zombie slaying state of mind!

    my current weight is 140 and my goal weight is 130 lets see my challenge goal would be able to run for 5 min Im up to almost 3 minutes....:)
    My biggest struggle has been my own body. In June I was 5 pounds away from my goal and then my TOM showed up and gained 5lb thought nothing of it but NEITHER went away and in July another 5 pounds gained still TOM was hanging around and I put the weight on in my stomach and abs. 6 inches very scary and weird went to the doctors and they removed my mirena. WOW next day I felt so much better I lost pretty much everything I gained (in water) Doctors think that while I was nursing she kept my hormones under control and when she quit they just went haywire....

    and my most favorite Zombie movie is Resident Evil...she freakin rocks!!!!
