This is the new thread for week #3.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE ALL YOUR INFORMATION IN THE SPREADSHEET FOR WEEK #2 - AS I NEED TO CALCULATE MILEAGE AND POINTS TODAY!! THIS INCLUDES YOUR WEIGHT (WIEGH IN) FOR THIS WEEK!!!

MAKE SURE THAT YOU PUT YOUR INFORMATION FOR LAST WEEK ON THE RIGHT PAGE - WEEK #2 - BECAUSE I HAVE CREATED WEEK #3's SHEET IS OUT THERE NOW.

I will take down week #2's exercise challenges, and week #2's spreadsheet tonight - so if you need to make any of week 2 challenges up - YOU MUST DO SO TODAY!

Also, this week we have an ADDITIONAL challenge - how many of those DOUBLE CRUNCHES can you do this week? How many are you going to COMMIT to?? Post your commitment number here on the thread and then keep updating it everyday throughout the week...... I don't think that I have any abs - they are so weak it's not even funny - so I'm only going to commit to 150.

Here we come WEEK #3 :love:

    I am going to commit to 150 of the double crunches this week.




    Each day when we post - we can show how many we did that day / how many we committed to.

    Example: 25/150

    (my abs are already cringing!!) :laugh:

    With the double crunch challenge is it how many we can do at one time or throughout the say. If it is at a single time during the day I just did 65 for today

    Ok, it is a new week! I am so sorry for dragging last week. It was really a bad week in every sense of the word. But this week is different I am definately going to nail every part of this challenge.
    I didn't get to do the workouts and I am going to let them go b/c it is impossible to do them all in one day and feel like I didn't just overdo it drastically.

    So here is to day one!

    Double crunches.... I will commit to 180 per the week.

    I'm going to go wimpy and aim for 120 of them - in six days.

    Here's to week 3, everyone! :flowerforyou:

    The challenge is to see how many you can do for the whole week - but to do them everyday! Just don't hurt yourself!! :wink:

    Here we come, Week 3 already!!!

    I am going to commit to 210 double crunches for this week. I did 30 this morning, so 30/210!

    Bridal shower for my future DIL today and a tea for her yesterday. Certainly ate and drank things I do not usually, so will need to pick up the exercise this week to make up for that!

    Have a great week, Dear Challengers!

    Hi all!

    I will commit to 200 double crunches. Woohoo!

    I had a really good week. Last night/this morning were my only downfalls: I was a little too excited to eat carbs so I had pad thai for dinner last night, a donut for breakfast today, and then a bagel for lunch! Yikes! But I still have plenty of calories left today, so I'm feeling good.

    Didn't run today because even though it's warm and sunny, it's supposed to thunder storm any minute now...but I did do a cardio video at home.

    Alrighty ladies ready for week 3!

    I will commit to doing 300 double crunches at least. Thats 60/day for 5 days...I can do it!

    I have all of my numbers in for week #2. I did go over calories today. I am currently at 16 over and I still need to eat something light for dinner. Today was my moms birthday and I cooked yummy lower calorie stuff but just ate too much of it LOL

    So i just found the weekly report on the app. Didnt know about it. So even though I went slightly over my calories on Monday and I am going to be over probably about 3-400 today...I will still have 700 exercise calories left for the week. Feeling pretty good about that. So for the week I didnt go over my calories and that is really the best way for me to look at it.

    Hi everyone!
    We were out of town this weekend so I have some catching up to do.
    While we were away I realized just how much I needed that little getaway!

    I am looking forward to starting up this week!

    Week 3 - Sunday:
    Water- 8 cups
    Under calorie goal today - Yes
    Walking Challenge: 0 had a stormy day today
    Burned: 0 had a stormy night last night LOL
    Minutes 0

    Had a mostly good day, but napped this afternoon after being up a lot in the night with storms/scared kid/scared cat. I think the kid and the cat met somewhere underneath me around 4:00 am. Then at 6:00 I woke up with a little (human) foot planted firmly in my bladder, so I really had to get up. Ah, well......she's really cute!

    Sunday:
    Exercise challenges -- on the "to do" list for today

    I missed posting my daily stats for a few days last week so I had to catch up on my calories burned and minutes for the overall challenge. This weekend I made horrible food choices. My son's birthday was Thursday and I've been eating all the leftover junk. New week!

    Week 3 -- here we go!

    Week 3
    Day 1

    Exercises - yes
    Water - 9
    Under Calories - yes
    Walked 1.5 miles on towards my evening walk challenge

    I only did 15 double crunches. I know I really should commit and do more double crunches, but I'm a baby step type of gal and I'm going to do as many as I can on top of my normal exercises. I just don't want to over do it and then give up. Been down that road and know where it got me.

    Hope everyone has a great week and keep on keepin' on.

    GOOD morning! MY Lower back is a bit stiff this morning, but do not think it is the double crunches...think it was pounding hard pavement for so long yesterday when DIL and I pushed the baby stroller all over town in some very high winds yesterday! I am not used to walking so much on pavement...my normal walking is done on dirt roads, which are much kinder to your back and joints. Need to STRETCH it out after such a day!

    Going to go for a bit of a run with my son before he takes me to the airport ....should be interesting to try to keep up with my 28 year old:tongue::tongue: ...maybe he will be kind to his old Mother!!!

    Have a wonderful day! :flowerforyou: Kackie
