    How often do you have these types of things? :smile:

    And you want us to post separately from our "check in" posting?

    That's Awesome! Great Job. I hope to have those same results by being involved with MFP. I avg. about 2#/wk... and that seems to work for me.

    I just started last week with my first one:) It worked out good so I changed it up and we gonna start again tomorrow with a new one! I am not sure what you mean about the posting...I just want you to "check in" here every day and just say "I did it" if you did all the steps or list which ones you got done if you didn't do them all....I will be keeping a spread sheet with points....I think there were 4 steps (other than posting) and you get one point for every step....that's the best way I can think of to keep track. There is no prize per say, except that you got moving and kept on track and helped others do the same :):) Let me know if you want to do it and Ill put you on the list..I will be closing it at the end of the day tomorrow so get in by then if you want to :)

    no you can make just one post at the end of every day with all the info and I thought maybe we could all weigh in tomorrow to start and then weigh in again at the end...just an idea though...you don't have to

    I'm in. So grateful I found this. My doctor just recommended 30 minutes walks/runs aside from my usual workout and daily routine

    Ok - first check in. Good luck everyone!

    1 - Will definitely eat my calories today (plus exercise calories); Going out with my husband tonight because my parents are babysitting my son overnight. May not be the healthy calories but they will be eaten. :happy:

    2 - Eat exercise calories - no problem!

    3 - Already drank 4 glasses - 4 more to go.

    4 - Ran for 40 minutes this morning (4.3 miles)

    5 - Post (check)!

    Check in so far for today!

    I've drank four cups of water already.

    I jogged (a couple walking breaks) for 30 minutes straight. I think it totalled like a mile and a half.

    I'm on my way to eating all the recommended calories. The day is still young.

    I'm kind of new at this, as for the exercise calories are you referring to the added calories added to use after posting my workouts?

    keep on comin...we are taking members till the end of the day...but you have to check in at the end of today with what you did cause today is the first day. I will be out of the house today so I will check back in later and add any new members to my spread sheet and start logging in the ones that have checked in already....If you did not see earlier I think I am going to do "points" for step 1-4 so we can see if we got them all or some missed a few...I won't chart which ones on the sheet. You can follow everyone on the thread to see exactly what they did or did not do :) So the chart for one person might look like this:

    name
    starting weight--10-27--10-28--10-29----etc
    purpleiris1114
    196.4
    4
    3
    4

    My final post for the first day will look something like this:

    starting weight-196.4
    ate cals
    ate exercise cals
    drink 8 cups
    did 30 min

    but feel free to check in or just make comments or questions as often as you like. As long as i get a final one with all the stats for the day, that is just easier for me to make sure I get you down for everything!

    see you guys later!

    yes mam! It will tell you that you have earned ___ cals for the exercise...you have to eat those back (all but 100 if you think its off and want to be safe)

That was cute!
