    WOW! Those zig-zag hops!!

    I am feeling great!! Even with my slacking off - and I did slack off some - I am feeling so much stronger than I was a month ago!!! Does anyone else notice the same thing?

    I am working to close out the spreadsheet so that Gary can check our totals and give us final placement info. I honestly got VERY discouraged and distracted this past week. I got the spreadsheet fixed and started entering numbers and realized there were some people that reported DAILY (you already know who you are because you were BUSTING YOUR BUTTS) and then there were some that I never heard from after the first week. We were allowed to remove those folks from the points - well - really just add points in for them so that the rest of the team did not suffer because of their lack of participation. It all just made me sad. It is not that difficult to check in.

    BUT...

    I have taken the frown - turned it upside down - and I am STILL KICKING THE CRAP OUT OF AUGUST PEOPLE!!! I took great comfort in the fact that 3 of our team members got us 10 extra points each by doing 1000 or more crunches on their own in WEEK 3!!! We had a team total of 5840!!! Take THAT August!!

    I am still working on the week 4 stuff because I am including today and tomorrow... so please - keep on reporting in here! That's right!!! Today and tomorrow and that's it!! We are done with August!! Please (if you lost more...) submit your FINAL WEIGHT in here.

    I will post final results here. If you do NOT want me to post your individual weight loss - please let me know and I will message it to you. (I am only posting totals - e.g. 6 pounds lost.)

    I can't wait!! Just so you know... we currently have lost 83.8 pounds as a team this month!! That is missing a few weigh-ins. (Like mine... I am waiting until tomorrow or maybe even Wednesday since tomorrow we still have challenges as part of August... No one has really said how to do that!!

    So - all challenges done today... under cals, over water.

    Reporting for yesterday, while I was submitting my information last night my virus protection service detected a virus so I had to let it take care of the issue. Anyhow, I was under on calories, over on water and completed all challenges, got in an extra mile and did an extra 50 crunches with 75 pounds of weight!! Not sure if we are supposed to continue doing extra crunches, miles, and jumping jacks these last three days or not??? I will give my finial weight for August tomorrow, as Wednesday is my normal weigh in day anyway.

    Finial day,

    Under Calories
    over water
    Completed the 5k with no problem and I can honestly say a month ago I could have done it but not in 42 minutes and not walking fast pace and jogging!! I was also able to get in over 10 miles today between biking, walking, jogging, and the Arc trainer!

    I will give my weight loss for August tomorrow morning, hopefully I made it to my 8 pound goal!

    I will not be going on to the September challenge with everyone, I'm trying out a new challenge and training with a friend for a two day, overnight field trip my twins will be going on in early October. I have enjoyed all of my team mates and hope we can stay in contact via MFP and continue to encourage one another. I wish everyone the best of luck in their weight loss and/or weight maintaining goals. Thanks so much to juleseybaby for leading our team!! :flowerforyou:

    Final weigh in - 137

    Finished 5k yesterday in 36 minutes pushing both my kids in my double stroller. I would not have been able to do that a month ago. Thank you so much Jules for encouraging us along this journey. You are awesome!

    Also, I am so impressed to read everyone's progress through the month! Great job, team. This was a great experience. It definitely helps me not put chocolate in my mouth when I know that the team is counting on me to be under calories :happy:

    It has been a pleasure going through this part of my journey with you!! Thanks so much for all the compliments! But the truth is - YOU ALL DID IT!! If you weren't working your butts off (quite literally) - I wouldn't have anything to track!! So THANK YOU!! :flowerforyou:

    Love you all truly and those that are moving on - I wish you the best in your continued journey. As long as you don't drop me from your friend list - I will still comment when I can!

    Those that are GOING TRIBAL with me in SEPTEMBER... TEAM CHUAY GAHN is going to win a battle - it is an epic battle against LAZINESS, SLACKING, EXCUSES, BAD HEALTH, and EXTRA POUNDS!! THEY ARE ALL GOING DOWN!!! :happy:
