    I have a team member who is contemplating entering maintenance mode (thanks to the help of the August challenge) so she will basically be in the challenge for the fitness aspect of it. Could there be any special point consideration for her should she choose to maintain her weight? Just throwing it out there and I understand not wanting to make too many exceptions to the rules.
    Thanks!

    Here is a question from one of my Anju Warriors....

    Does our team get more points if I do the advanced since it's so much harder?


    Thanks

    We have members in this situation as well. I know there probably wont be any point concideration made, but I'm ok with it. I'm happy to have active participating members that get points towards the weekly challenges! That's harder to find in team members than those who just loose weight and don't do any of the challenges!!

    Thanks

    Nope, both are the same... you get to choose which one you do on a daily basis. Both get the 1 point for every team member that complete's the daily challenge, and 5 bonus if all team members complete all 6 daily challenges

    I like the idea that advanced and standard get the same amount of points - people just starting out should get just as much credit as those of us who have been doing this a while!

    Help! I am having trouble getting my team's banner to work as a signature. I'd love to know what the heck I'm doing wrong!


    This is the embed code (or whatever) that I'm trying use: (which, strangely enough, isn't showing up). I've changed the IMG to all lowercse but that still doesn't work.

    Pull the image up in your picasa album - right click on it - scroll to properties and click - copy the 'Address: (URL)' field content... make sure to scroll down so you get the whole thing. Paste that in between the lowercase img tags. Hope it works. Sorry if you had already tried that...

    But encourage your team to do the hard work outs because they will have a greater weight loss. :)

    Hi!

    How will we calculate points for this partial week? Where do we put them?

    Thanks! Sonia

    How do we calculate the % points for weight lost? Do we take the percent out of total body mass? Or is it the % out of the goal to lose? Also, do we only get points if a whole % point is lost? I'm probably making this way harder than it is, but I wanted to be sure!

    Hey folks, I'm the captain of The Lifers. We're organized out of an already created Facebook group, so most of our communication is and will be on there. Just wanted to say hi and let you know we exist :smile: We're all new to this, but ready to kick some butt!

    HEY FELLOW CAPTAINS!

    I dont have the patience to read thru the pages of posts, so if this has already been asked and answered I apologize....

    on the rules pdf it says:
    "· 1 point for the other weekly challenges (water intake, staying under calories etc.) Each week
    different challenge per member"
    Can someone please explain to me what what this means please? (in detail preferably!!!)

    thanks!

    All the Captains should have received an email from Gary late last night. It contains, the rules, the spreadsheet, and the excercises. The rules are simple and once you have the spreadsheet it will be much easier to manage. As for the percentages, they are automatically figured out with the data you input in the spreadsheet. Easy Peasy
