@Rachelerik sad to see you go, but you need to take care of you first! Praying for quick recovery and hope to see you during the next race! :heart:

I plan on getting the videos done today and tomorrow. And I am on day 4 of the water challenge, so should have that knocked out by Saturday evening as well. I'm hoping we can get everyone to log their exercise, even if it's 0 and complete the challenges. I feel like aside from sicknesses, if I can fit these challenges in…

Hey Sixpack! Sorry I haven't been as vocal this week! Things are more settled with my Uncle now. He will die, it's just a matter of when, but we're at peace about it. His wishes are being met and they are keeping him comfortable. He's lost too much of his brain function that he's not really himself anymore. They're just…

Yes, it's warm-ish now, so we're hoping to get in an outdoor walk this afternoon before the cold comes back too!

@jdelaroy That's awesome that you are getting better! Praying for continued and full recovery! :smile:

I finally put in all my calories from yesterday and was pleasantly surprised to see that I did stay under. I just made sure to stop eating when I was full(I hate wasting food), and to drink plenty of fluids. Today, I am back at it! During school breaks, I am going to get in those videos and keep drinking my water! I didn't…

Thank you all so much! It's wonderful to know y'all are thinking of my family and I through this! My uncle actually showed improvement today! We didn't pull the plug! He still may die any day now, but they have a procedure to do that may help him, hurt him, or he could just stay the same. There is now a chance though, so…

We got the call this morning that my Uncle has lost the ability to breathe on his own, or really do anything. We're going to the hospital to say goodbye this afternoon before they pull the plug. Prayers are appreciated as we go through this today. My sister, my mom, and I are going to be in the room when they do it. I need…

Thank you. :heart:

Hello from Team 6! I thought the same thing as you my first go through this challenge. Then I met so many different people from different walks of life than mine that I was able to answer the same question you had. The person getting those high numbers could just be in a different season of their life than you and has more…

Thank you. :heart:

Yes! The challenges are a little easier this week. Two videos and water intake. And then staying active while watching the Venice videos. I don't know if I'll have the numbers I had last week, but I think I can still max out mins. My uncle is in the hospital, and we're going to see him tomorrow. He had a stroke and might…

Oh, I didn't realize we have someone new! Welcome, @nurdette ! I'll send you a friend request!

So, I was thinking about it, and instead of trying to be in a certain place this week, as we inevitably will be, how about we focus on trying to get to a certain goal for our team. That way no matter where we end up, we can celebrate our victories among ourselves. What number should we shoot for? And do you like the idea?

No such thing! I love seeing the comments and posts! Post away! It's encouraging to our team! :smiley:

This week, I commit to: starting early on the challenges and completing them maxing out on exercise minutes drinking beyond the 64oz of water daily(shooting for at least 76) having fun exercising with my family encouraging our team to have our best week yet! What do you commit to this week?

Okay, I'm done being sad about last week! Let's regroup, reset, and go hard this week! New week means new chances to improve ourselves! Let's go, Sixpack!!!

I know and we're in last now. :disappointed: We started out the day in 3rd! And then went to 4th, and now 6th. Trying not to be totally bummed out right now. The other teams are just killing those challenges this week.

@Tiffany7711 We're you able to complete any of the challenges while on your cruise? If so, we can mark those too. :smile: Also, hope you had a great time and are re-energized from your trip! :smiley:

Take care of yourself! Hope you feel better soon!

I have! It is a wonderful movie about some of the women who worked in NASA during the space race. Very well written and presented! I cry at the end every time. And it's one of my 9 year old's favorite movies too! Actually, our whole family loves it, part because my husband works with rockets as an intelligence analyst. So,…

That's awesome! I'm glad you got to enjoy the nice weather! :smile:

Try to at least finish challenges 1 and 2 today and tomorrow, Sixpack! We can do this! Enjoy those kickboxing videos or dancing videos! Wish I could work out with these guys: :lol: Happy Saturday, Sixpack!

Finished the challenges and maxed out on minutes! Just need to stay active for other challenges and to cheer on our Sixpack! We are doing so well this week! Only 5 points ahead though from team 5, so don't forget to log all the hard work you've done in before Sunday 9pm PST! We can do this!!! Let's go Sixpack!!! :smiley:

I agree! Definitely count it! It is an exercise to play with kids. They keep us active and give us a workout.

Glad you made it home safely, @BeLLe_60 sorry you had a flat.

I am going to max out points tonight hopefully. The spreadsheet has been weird lately for me. Sometimes not showing the correct total of my exercise minutes, even though they are in fact all there so far. So, I'm hoping on Sunday night everything is showing up correctly. I am trying to max out points for another challenge,…

Hope you stay safe through the flood warnings!

Some encouragement for today!

Finished the first kick boxing video. It was okay. She went quickly, but I just did my own pace making sure to do the moves properly for my fitness/flexibility level. Going to do the dance ones later with the munchkin during breaks from school. At least, I hope she'll do them with me! :smile: Hope your Friday is going…
