I'm going to let Mrs. Canmore fill you in on the details because I'm in the hospital now and and am not feeling up to typing out a long post. I've been in the hospital since Saturday and will be stuck here for another 5 days or so. If possible, it would be best for both me and the team to step down and let someone else…

Hi guys, Sorry I've been lying low for the past while. I had a blast in England but I ended up getting sick on the plane ride back.

My exercise minutes were well deserved today. I went hiking in the English mores. It was absolutely beautiful but somehow everything seemed to be uphill. According to my Fitbit, I did 113 flights of stairs . We just don't get hills like that on the prairie. Lol

Hi guys. My Internet connection is really weak and I can't get the spreadsheet to open. Could someone please add 174 minutes for me today. I wish I could get the videos to load. I could use a foot massage right now.

Since my sister, @Mrscanmore will never believe that I ate octopus otherwise... We ate at a love Greek restaurant along the Thames River.

I have had a wonderfully long day and am feeling like I walked from 1 end of London to the other. I haven't had a chance to do the video challenges. The wifi in our hotel is a little sketchy but hopefully I can get some of it done tomorrow morning. Being that I'm in a different country and am a very picky eater, the food…

I'm on my way to England. I should have no problem getting my exercise minutes in because I'm going to be dragged around by my daughter for the next couple of weeks. I also think the food challenge will be interesting. I can't stand fish but I'm definitely going to try some English style fish and chips.

Thank goodness that I got my challenges done early. I'm heading out for a birthday supper tonight so I'm pretty sure that I won't be under my calorie count today. I should be able to get the challenges done next week BUT I'm on holidays and am flying to England to spend some time with my daughter tomorrow. Hopefully our…

I am having some issues with the spread sheet. I have been trying to change my exercise minutes from 15 minutes yesterday to 62 but I haven't been able to delete my original 15 minutes. If anyone can change that for me, I'd really appreciate it. For awhile I had 1562 minutes logged in for yesterday. I'm glad I was able to…

Hi all. I just got back from an out of town appointment and am chomping at the bit to get onto the treadmill but before I do, I'd like to introduce myself. 1. Name: Jackie 2. Favourite form of exercise: Walking. I really enjoy taking my dogs for walks on the trails near my place BUT in the winter, I do my walking on the…

I'm so excited to be leaving from London. My daughter's living in England right now so I'm flying to London next month to see her. Good luck on the race everyone.

So glad to be starting again. Good luck team 5.

@MissionEnforcer

I decided to do the Climb to the Count stair challenge because with being sick this week, I was able to keep track of my stairs and pick away at it all week. Glad I decided to do it that way. I'm feeling better today and was able to finish the challenges without too much difficulty. I hope everyone is having a nice…

Sorry I've been away for so long. I have had the worst flu ever and have been sick for over a week. I was hoping to finish this challenge off strong. I'm still doing what I can but I'm hoping to feel good enough tomorrow to knock out the first 2 challenges. Challenge 3: 8 Lifestyle Choices 1. Water - I'm going to continue…

My legs are a little bit sore right now BUT I am almost 2/3 done the stair challenge. I've been aiming for 500 stairs a day so I'm already up to 1000. I've just finished the 4 videos. I liked the first one best so I'm going to do it a second time tomorrow. I really enjoyed reading everyone's thankful posts.

There is no Turkey Trot where I live but I will do my own 10 km on the treadmill this week. I haven't had a chance to try out the videos yet but I do have my alarm set a half hour early tomorrow so I will try them out. I am also thankful for my family. I have 2 grown kids who although they live far away (1 is in England…

I finished my 4 mile hike today. It was a nice day but it's getting colder here. I've done 4 dance videos so far and I've completed 2/5 days for challenge 3. I have to work a bingo tonight and am going to be running back and forth selling tickets (people always seem to wait until Im at the other end of the hall to decide…

I'm so glad for the outdoor challenge this week. I've got beautiful trails near my house that I haven't taken advantage of in ages. Today I took a 4.5 km (2.81 mile) walk with my dogs. It was so nice that I've convinced a friend to join me and am going to go for a nice long walk again after school tomorrow.

Just a quick check in to say that I've completed the challenges. I completed challenge 1 and 3 yesterday and today I completed challenge 2: the arm videos. I did the quick burn twice and the arm video with weights once. Hope everyone is having a good weekend. :-)

Hi Challenge #1 30/30 minutes skipping done. That was harder than I though it would be. Challenge #3 done and recorded. I'm now working to finish challenge # 2. Stay strong Fab 5s. :-)

Sorry. I forgot to record today for challenge 3 F- Banana, Red Pepper, Lettuce, Spinach, Cucumber, Carrots (Yellow, Red, Green, Orange) 4 coloirs @MissionEnforcer

Hello Fab 5s Hope everyone is having a good Friday. Challenge Status Challenge 1: Jump rope - 20/30 minutes I plan to finish this challenge this evening. Challenge 2: Arm videos - 1/3 I will do another arm video this evening and the 3rd one tomorrow Change 3: Eat Multicolours: Complete M- Banana, Brussel spouts, romaine…

G'day mates. Monday foods: Green: Spinach and kale, Green-White: Brussel sprouts, Brown: Brown rice, Red: Tomato

Well it was down to the wire but I'm feeling a bit better and I got my challenges done. I didn't do a ton of exercise today but considering that I've been laid up on the couch for 3 days, 30 minutes on the treadmill will have to do.

Well I've been sick with the flu since Tuesday so my exercise minutes have gone down the tube this week. On a plus note though, staying under my calorie goal has been an easy challenge for me this week because I have no appetite. Lol I will also knock off the other 2 challenges but I am taking things slowly so I won't get…

Well my legs are sore but I've finished the first 2 challenges and am on track to complete challenge # 3 on Friday. I especially liked doing the videos. My daughter (who's a big Rocky Horror fan) would have been so proud to see me rock the Time Warp :-). I did 20 flights of stairs a day for the past 3 days for a grand…

I am so excited about the videos this week. I did the Calling All Monsters and the Monster Mash videos with my grade 3 class this morning. I'm going to have them do the Transylvania Twist and the Thriller video tomorrow...So much fun. Welcome @biketheworld It's great having you on our team.

@2016summerfun I had trouble with the spreadsheet this morning and never recorded my weight loss until after work. I lost 1.2 lbs this week. :-)

Challenge # 1: I have friended all teammates. @MissionEnforcer I introduced myself on Monday but never had a chance to tell you about where I live. I live in St. Walburg, Saskatchewan. It is a small town of about 800 people. Our main industries are oil and farming. I had never lived in a small town until I moved into the…
