edited October 4 in Motivation and Support
*****Come One Come All*****. It is hard to believe October is done which means our "Life's New Journey October Challenge is coming to an end. We will be starting a new spread sheet on Monday October 31st that will go until December 5th. Everybody that said yes will automatically receive the new spread sheet.

If there is anybody else that would like to join a challenge of friendly competition, accountability, support and challenges just let me know and I will add you and send you the spread sheet.:smile:

    I'm interested. I could always use extra motivation and I'm working out solo so, I really would appreciate it! Do you need any other info from me?

    Please put me in. I wasn't all in on this last one... I thought I was, but didn't know there were daily challenges, etc. Is there a time you usually post them by? My schedule is so hectic, my days are nights, nights are days... I get on here every day, but sometimes it's not until after midnight, so it doesn't count as every day. I got off work this morning at 8am after a 14 hour shift, slept for about 3 hours, tried to sleep for 2 more... and I have to be at work before 10am tomorrow morning (only for 2 hours... and at almost 5X my hourly wage, so I can't complain!).

    Anyway, I weighed in this week but it wasn't til Wednesday : ( I'll try to do better in November, and plan on getting my gym membership again! YAY!!!

    In answer to your question. I have made teams on the spread sheet and there will be a weekly team winner as well as weekly top 5 individual winners listed. I also post a mini challenge every morning for food and exercise. I hope that answers your question.

    Good Morning Everyone,

    The "Life's New Journey" November Challenge is officially under way. I would like to welcome all the new people that have joined our group. Some changes that the October people might notice are that I have divided people into teams. There was no particular rhyme nor reason as to what team you were placed on. I tried to divide it according to weight (some heavier and some lighter). I encourage you to introduce yourself or at least friend the people that are in your group. Remember this is all friendly support. We are all winners just by being here. Good luck to everybody.

    Monday's Mini Challenge:

    Food - today is Halloween and for somebody like me that luvs chocolate it takes every ounce of willpower that I have to not eat the whole box. In looke at the nutritional value I can probably work one or two of them into my calorie count. Today I challenge you to stay within your calorie count and definitely above 1200.

    Cardio - Take at least a 30 minute brisk walk. Make sure you get your heart rate up for a good part of the walk.

    Strength - It is crunch day. Lets do at least 100 but they have to be at least three different kinds. Try some regular ones, try on an exercise ball, try pulling up to the side to work obliques, try lifting your legs and butt for the reverse crunch.

    Quote of the Day- Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.

    I hope everybody has a great day.

    Keep Smiling :smile: :smile: :smile:
