    YAY Go Green Team!!! :0)

    Challenge sounds great (track exercise M-F, report calories burned)

    Are we doing a drink 1/2 body weight in water + 10 pushups full/knees/wall every other day (sorry, I'd track back to double check but my computer is so SLOW today! - I think it's dying :(

    Ready to rock it out this week! Woo HOOO

    We can definitely have those as personal challenges if people want to, but i'm not sure how we would keep track of it as teams to have a winning team or anything. if anyone has any ideas or suggestions, we can definitely consider them either for this week or the ones to come

    I may get confused with too many challenges within this. Can we start out with just like ... one per week? I like your challenge of keeping track of the calories burned M-F for this week. Great idea!
    But, the water and the push-ups too... is very confusing.
    Maybe once we get going we can add more than 1 challenge per week........ but for me... it is great to keep things simple at first.
    Thanks for putting this all together!

    ok after adding all the people who have asked, here is the chart i have come up with. if any information is wrong, please tell me and i will fix it.

    in response to people posts about the challenges, we will just be doing the group challenge with the exercise calories unless anyone has objections to that challenge. let me know =)

    next week, if people would post their weights either friday or saturday before 3 pm, that would be amazing.

    ok i have the final version of the chart. okieworkout, i have added you to the red team. if one more person comes, i will add you to the purple team to make the teams even. other than that, we are not accepting new people. i'm sorry but after the next person (if any), i have to draw the line and say no more people.

    just to be final about this, this week's challenge will be to see which team burns the most calories exercising. from monday to friday only, each person should send me or post in the group their total exercise calories burned for those five days only. i will add them all up and see which team wins! also, you can choose to weigh in either friday or saturday morning, saturday by at least 3 pm (est). saturday night i will post the updated charts and announce both the individual and team winners. thanks everybody for participating!

    Ok team green, I got in a whopping 30 minutes and 222 calories today. Will get more tomorrow. Planning to join the YMCA tomorrow and take the kiddos after school.

    I'd love to lose 2#'s this week - so let's do this!

    Also checking in for the green team... I burned 602 calories during 50 very sweaty minutes of Zumba (it would have been an hour, but I was late bc the child watch at my gym was INSANE). Go green! Tomorrow I will be doing a Core Ball class. I'm not entirely sure what that is, but I'm excited.

    Well Yellow team, I burned like 800 calories today with my chalean extreme weights and my hour long turbo kickboxing class... that should give a little more leeway!!

    Go RED TEAM!

    I burned 1,035 calories today!

    RED TEAM if you would like, I could compile all the info from our challenges and post daily. You can just email me your daily totals. It would be just 5 posts weekly to this discussion thread instead of 25 posts weekly for our team. Let me know what you think of the idea.

    i was actually thinking that at the end of the week, people would just send me their numbers for each day and i would do all the math and stuff. if you want to do it though go ahead haha



    also, everyones doing AWESOME!

    I have had a couple people message me about adding to your signature so
    if you want to add the Biggest Loser shirt to your signature..

    go to google...search for biggest loser...find the pic you want to use :)
    go to aviary.com
    upload pic
    resize pic, i found if you change the first number to 200 it will automatically change the height to match
    but change it to whatever you want to use :)

    save
    copy/paste message board link into your signature

    Hope everyone had a great day today! I re-joined the YMCA today, so I had an hour of peaceful exercise while my kids got to run around their "adventure room" & burn off some steam too. Ahhhh....

    Go all teams, but I am partial to green!!

    Hugs,

    OK, I agree on the once a week post for results too. Now I don't think we need another thread since it's just me and you posting for now. Perhaps the others just want to post once a week as well? After the 1st week, we'll see who's really with us. I'll reach out to the other team members in an email.

    Whoo-Hoo! Red Team Rules!
