I did direct sow of my compost and it seemed to work great - until the ground sprouted like crazy with tomatoes and a few other veggies that I did not plant! They came from the composted seeds. No lie, about 100 tomato plants. I'm pulling them like weeds.

Thanks to everyone who hung in there, appreciate all you do, especially Pat, our spreadsheet wonder! Spring was not a good choice for me to do a challenge- way too much on my plate. I felt I wasn't able to enjoy it like the winter one. So I'll take a break from challenges after this one but I am still on the weight loss…

Team 3 down to 7....maybe less...communication way down.

Just checking in on ya all! This spring weather has finally stabilized for several days in a row and ive gotten some good walking in so my miles were way up this week! Unfortunately I ate more too....

Thanks so much for your help Pat, as always! It's so nice to have you to rely on for that. Two people at work had their grandmothers pass this week so I've been covering for them this past weekend and this week.

You're all doing great, thanks for doing all that you can do!!!

1. I have to be in this 100%. If I only half-do the exercise or eating or challenges (to the amount I know I can do them) then I do not lose weight. 2. I cannot have cheat days or meals. I lose no weight for the whole week if I do that. 3. Life sucks sometimes and I don't lose weight. Suck it up, buttercup and move on, get…

I appreciate the help guys, I really do! My work is just insane right now and I'm not doing well with eating and exercising as reflected in my lack of weight loss. Pat, I love your enthusiasm but we are all different levels of exercise here - I could not begin to walk 26 miles in a week. Pitiful, but true. My max is 2.5 a…

Thanks for the suggestion- already tried that.

That's seven new missing people, not including those from previously.

Right now I have SEVEN members of my team who are mia... Have no idea what to do

7 people of our team still have posted absolutely nothing under this week. I really don't know what to do. Thanks so much for those of you who checked in, I truly appreciate hearing from you!

I have a fear that you all think I'm a Terrible Leader and have abandoned me... Where did everyone go?

Thank you So Very Much for the spreadsheet Pat, you are so full of awesomeness!!!! It is 1000x easier using your version. Hopefully we won't lose anyone else and we will kick butt in the challenge now! I will have some improvements in my times this week I hope.

I think ladder climbing gets more credit than just stairs!!

Sorry team, awful week for me. Not much exercise and I think I gained weight. Starting tomorrow with a better mindset and an easier week at work will help too.

Mel said she is computing the sheets based on a total of 10 people in each team, so as long as we have 10 actives then we are good.

How's everyone doing?? My work weeks has been seriously hurting my exercise time as well as some messing w my meals - except the day off I took on Wednesday, from work and eating right! But as always I paid for it w a terrible upset stomach Wednesday night thru Thursday am - and then had to pull 14 hrs work on Thursday.…

Melonie, We have updated our spreadsheet in team 3 to reflect miles over the goal we are going. Please check it when you get a moment thanks! Thank goodness I have a spreadsheet guru on my team to do all this work for me?

Thanks for your second post as well that you believe it's counting them now. I'll have Melonie check it and ensure we are getting credit!

I hope everyone has seen Melodie's week #3 golden ticket post. 3307 miles to Hershey, PA. EVERYONE needs to try to do at least one Roadblock. They look quite doable this week. Of course, you can always do both for extra points! (Hint, hint!) Roadblock#1 - Easter Egg Fitness Challenge Video. Each time you do this 5 minute…

I emailed and posted comments to Pipsqueak and chatipati - both have been on mfp but have not logged minutes. Hopefully we hear something back. Hate losing people!!

Lost 1 for certain, 2portera, maybe 2 more, waiting to hear back. Down in 15 if only one is lost.

Awesome new week is ahead, we lost 2portea who never really posted anything anyway, let's see how we do this week! The challenges sound fun! I'll go troll the other teams and see who has a lovely summary for me to copy! :-)

Pat you did such an awesome job editing the spreadsheet last time I would be thrilled if you can again, even if it's not until Tuesday! Dale, okay, I get it now. I guess I can't imagine not eating at least 1200 calories on a non-vomiting or fasting day, lol!! On a side note I had a friend, male, who is 5'1" strictly…

Dale, I don't understand - if you are above or below your calories and you grit the completed button it should complete no matter what, right? I think it is not helping you to fudge on your intake in either direction as the app is here to help you. Maybe I'm not understanding the issue correctly

Dale, glad you are feeing better!! Kathy, nice job! I'm testing my willpower on not eating delicious Amish-homemade Easter candy today...

That's great Pat, thanks!! I removed Misschellechelle and Rachaeltilson910. One dropped out and the other never participated.

That leaves us with 16 currently
