  • Hello Green Team! What is your score for the final week? I haven't seen it come in yet... (also, highest points for the week and most pounds lost during the challenge)
  • Hi purple team! My points for the week were 205. Unfortunately, I did not lose weight but I did maintain and I had been in a gaining cycle before starting this challenge, so I'm happy about that. I've come to realize that, while all the things combined lead to a healthier lifestyle (something I plan to continue),…
  • Yay! Well done to you, too Jan. I didn't lose that much either but learned a lot about my fitness needs along the way. And, I made it to the bonus bonus points this week! It was my goal all along to hit the 3500 calories burned in a week, I used to do so regularly and was losing weight like crazy, but then, life... so I'm…
  • Happy last day of the 8-week challenge! I realize that today is Easter, and I didn't plan on the last day being a holiday... sorry! So maybe enjoy those Easter brunches and just sweat out the indulgences! I hope you all enjoyed these past 8 weeks! :-)
  • Today was glorious! 1hr40 minutes bike ride followed by 1hr15 minute walk, both by the warm sunny beach and bay... ahhhh, that's the way to get in the exercise! And, I'm only 70 cals burned away for the bonus bonus points! i think I'm going to make it this time! Wishing you all a happy healthy weekend!
  • Thank you!! It has been such an amazing experience to put this challenge together. I had no idea if anyone would join and have been delighted every day I read through the threads (yes, I read other teams threads, too, because every ounce of motivation helps!!) And I absolutely love seeing people connecting and being so…
  • Did you make it to your walk? How's everyone doing this week? So far this has been my best week yet! I've done all the things. Including making it to dance class last night (Modern) and laying off the booze! lol I think becoming vegetarian-by-day has made getting fruits and veggies in a lot easier. I'm finding that for…
  • I didn't make it to ballet last night, but did manage to walk for 45 minutes instead. Modern dance is on the calendar for tonight... I'm really trying for the bonus bonus points this week!

  • I love zumba too! Last night was ballet. I'm going to try again for tonight, too!

  • I did pretty good, almost hit the 3500 cal bonus but not quite... My points for the week are 199 Happy Monday to everyone!!
  • Good for you! I didn't manage to get to the gym or any exercise yesterday, and I'm feeling sore today for it!! Gotta get my mojo back!!
  • Didn't have time to exercise yesterday, it was a long day... I'm hoping to make it to the gym later today, but if not I'll at least get in a walk. Go Team!!
  • You totally earned it!!
  • If the spreadsheet shows the total number of points for everyone during the week, all you need to do is divide that number by the number of people on your team to get the average points. If you have questions, please PM me. :-)
  • Yay! Let's do this!!
  • Week SIX winners are: Green Team with an average of 195.6 points 2nd place: Yellow at 191 3rd place: Purple at 161 Red Team did not provide scores for this week... And the individual winner is fabricwoman (Gloria) with 213 points! Awesome job and great dedication!!
  • Good morning, RED team! Does someone on your team know your team average points for week 6? (and highest score)? If so, please PM me so I can get the winners out later today!
  • I know, right? I don't know what it means to dream of something, have it in your hands and then wake up before getting to enjoy it!! Good for you for the long walk!
  • Just checking in, how's everyone doing this Saturday? I've already blown it for sugars as someone brought homemade bread pudding for breakfast. I usually don't partake in sweets in the morning, but it was homemade and vegetarian. Plus last night I had a dream about ordering a doughnut. I didn't actually get to eat it in my…
  • The key is to start slow, be kind to yourself, and listen to your body. If something doesn't feel right, it probably isn't. I'm lucky to have had amazing dance teachers who encourage "variations" based on ability. I like my personal artistic variations. Also a bit of a head-trip is this: say that you tell yourself you're…
  • How's everyone doing today? I'm delightfully sore from doing pilates and ballet on Tuesday and then modern dance last night. I'm hoping to make it to ballet again tonight, and if I do I may actually gather enough calories burned by Sunday to get the bonus points!
