    Sass thanks for the advice, but if I drink a "boatload of wwater" won't my boat sink. I prefer the floating kind, especially with a handsome skipper. (Sarcasm) We need a shorter way to type this word.

    sass30- I didn't like sushi when I first tried it. I remember spitting into my napkin it was so gross. I later realized it was the seaweed that was used to wrap the roll I didn't like. What got me starting to like it was eating sashimi, which is just the raw fish by itself. It has to be really fresh though. Salmon is probably the easiest to start with. Dunk it in soy sauce mixed with wasabi. Ahi (tuna) was the second I ever tried and is still my favorite to this day. I will sometimes splurge and get some sashimi grade and have it at home. Also try a roll that does not have seaweed around the outside of it.

    mkkaluzny- Instead of using (sarcasm) you can just use a winking smiley. ;)

    Been having a good week with the weight. Catching up from my slow beginning. Lost 2 lbs :) I usually don't update my weight numbers until Monday morning, but think I will cheat a bit and enter them today. Another 1/2 inch off the waist and abs too.

    I will donate a bunch more crunches. I also need to do something to make up for the woodchops I missed. I've never used the "thighmaster" type machine at the gym. Maybe I will try that.

    Are we doing anything with the before pictures? I don't think mine will show much change.

    Met all exercises, water, and calorie challenges as reported earlier. Tried a new food and exercise and did additional ab crunches for team. NEW WEIGHT as of this morning 123.8. Sara you were right. Lost of water (a lot of water) did help. Thanks

    Sorry I was so MIA yesterday. I lost my internet and electricity for the majority of yesterday, someone must have took out a power line or something.
    I was able to complete all of my challenges and to my surprise yesterday (and today) I weighed in at 135!!!! Didn't think I would see that this month, or next!

    You are all doing so great and this week is showing a lot of losses because you have all been so dedicated!

    As far as the before pics, I think Gary had something planned for them but I do not know if he is still doing it. I will see if I can find out.

    Congratulation on the surprise weight loss! My metabolism must have finally kicked in because I seem to be dropping almost too fast all of a sudden.

    I was under calories & over water yesterday & I managed to get in my last two daily exercise challenges today - up downs & woodchops. Oh, and I did my last 100 pledged team crunches today even though we hit the 4000 mark already. I don't see any problems coming in under calories for today or getting in enough water :)

    I haven't weighed myself this weekend, but will do that bright & early tomorrow morning :) good job on your losses this week y'all! hopefully I can join in the celebration with you tomorrow :)

    part of the team weekly challenge is solicit a friend or family member to join MFP and begin the next
    month’s journey with you. Inspire others that’s easy. The retire portion of the week is about looking
    back at the past 30 days. You have had to retire many old habits, many excuses and reasons why not to
    exercise. It’s time to retire those and move forward to the new you! YOU ARE MY INSPIRATIONS! Keep
    it up as we INSPIRE our circle of influence and RETIRE the old ways! Go Inspirations Go!

    my weight was 178.1 this week. Not much but I am surprised I lost any this week with my husband being off work all week and us celebrating all week. I made good choices and got in quite a bit of exercise but I ate out a lot this week. You ladies rock, you are doing great.

    CONGRATS to everyone that lost weight and contributed to the ab crunchs.........

    I am assuming the swimmers presses are 2 sets of 25. Sara do you know if that is what Gary meant.

    Good morning beautiful people! Here is today's challenge:

    Day 1: 2 sets of 20 Windshield Wipers, 3 sets of 21’s, 2 sets of Swimmer’s Press
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omeqA3O4DUk


    I am going to assume that the swimmer's press is 2 sets of 15 as listed in day 4. If you can do more then do more! YOu will only be benefiting yourself.

    Good Morning Ladies! I am determined to send this challenge out with a bang! I think today's challenges are doable for me (mostly upper body so that's fine). I'm not sure what Windshield Wipers are but I'll take a look, if I can't do Gary posted that we could to crunches instead. :bigsmile:
