Sorry I haven't been in touch- Our power has been out because of the storm--
I need everyone's starting weight as of Sept 1 (or the night before)
Also, do we have a creative person that wants to make a logo for us--I can try but, I am not real good with the computer
Gary has posted the exercises for the first week- I will post them here in the next little bit
Does anyone have any questions

Starting weights...either post here or private message me. Whatever you are comfortable with..we will just use this thread now. I couldn't figure out how to change the name on the other one
I am still trying to get my house back in order. I wonder if being under extreme stress burns more calories??0 -
This will be my first challenge, so just tell me what to do! My starting weight is 199.4.
Do we set personal goals for this month?
Can't believe tomorrow is September 1! WOW!0 -

Good afternoon everybody!
I need to know 3 things for each day
1 If you drank your 64 ounces of water
2 If you stayed within your calorie range
3 If you did the Exercise challenge of the day
So for me yesterday,
water- yes
calories-yes
exercises-yes
= 3 points
If we each get all 3 points every day of the week, we get an extra 5 points
Don't feel bad if you are the first one to mess up! We will love you anyway
BTW I had a scale victory! I am finally into the 250's!! (I get my Bobbi Brown Eye Pallette FINALLY)
Also fit into some clothes today that I haven't had on for 3 years. Pretty good day for me! YAY0 -
Mirella 9.1.11 (Yesterday):
water- no
calories-yes
exercises-no BUT!!!! I did yesterday's exercises today, ALONG WITH my exercises today...so does that count??
Mirella 9.2.11 (Today)
water- yes
calories- yes
exercises- yes
Ray 9.1.11 (Yesterdy):
water- yes
calories - yes
exercises - yes
Ray 9.2.11 (Today):
water- yes
calories - yes
exercises - yes0 -
Also fit into some clothes today that I haven't had on for 3 years. Pretty good day for me! YAY
I think this is even a better prize!!!
I'm good for food / water / exercise for day 1 and day 2
I even did a little extra because I wanted more time in Zone 2 of the HRM
Oh!!! BTW did the Bear *kitten* and by Bear *kitten* I mean the walk...and my dog thought I was challenging him! I loved the confused look on his face like "wwwwhhhaat are you doing? and should I bite your *kitten* right now"0 -

Ok mark me down for days 3 and 4 complete because I'm going to be away from the computer from now until Tuesday morning (going to the BF's house way way up in NH). But I'm bringing my HRM and will be doing the exercises from there.
Water is no problem, I drink all my water every day with no effort at all.
Calories - Not sure wher I'll net out here since I won't have access to any of my own foods, but I'll make good choices.0 -
Day 1, 2...exercies YES, water YES and under goal YES.
Congrats on the 250's! Yay for awesome makeup and clothes that fit!0 -
