    ok challengers just something i forgot to write earlier... you MUST log your diary every day and if people could make there diarys public we can all have a look and give advice... of course this is optional but i think its harder to cheat if you know people will be having a peek :)

    and dont cheat because your only fooling yourself... remember if you bite it write it (i heard that somewhere before as im sure most of you have also )

    hey guys ive been having a sneak peek through some diaries today and your all doing great...
    so for tomorrow when i set a challenge of 150g of carbs for 6 days i want you to weigh them yourself... like today i had a roll that was 70g which left me with 80g for the day but when i added it into my diary it only calculates as 17 carbs... so dont go by the amount of carbs mfp gives you because its added differently... make sense?

    GOOD MORNING CHALLENGERS!!!!

    WEEK 1: 150g of carbs (ex. 1 slice of bread weighing 30g = 30g of your carbs for today/ 30g of UNCOOKED pasta = 3og of your carbs of your carbs today)

    we all know that almost everyfood had carbs in it so we are gonna measure just the main groups... potatoes/pasta/rice/bread so mainly starchy foods :)


    WEEK1: DRINK AT LEAST 8 GLASSES OF WATER
    FRIDAYS(DAY 1) MINI CHALLENGE... ADD 200 JUMPING JACKS TO YOUR WORK OUT TODAY...THESE CAN BE SPREAD OUT IF YOU WANT:

    I WOULD LIKE ANYONE THAT DOES NOT WANT TO DO THIS CHALLENGE TO SET THEMSELVES A PERSONAL CHALLENGE AND LET US ALL KNOW WHAT KIND OF RESULTS YOU GET..

    we are all here to lose weight so its gonna take a bit of chopping and changing to find what works...

    please send me your weight and keep me posted on how your all getting on :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
