@GaPeachezB , blue team is not active. If you want to join an active team, we have Red, Yellow, Green, and Purple.

That's a good question. If they notified you ahead of time, you just would not include their score in your average and divide your total by one less participant. If they didn't notify you that they weren't participating for the week, you would give them a zero but still count them in the number of participants. I know that…

My points for the week are 149. Starting weight was 193.8. I'm up 2 lbs but not freaking out because I think it's water weight from my cycle (sorry if that's TMI)... Super Bowl Sunday was a bust. They only served tortilla chips with nacho sauce. I would have brought some fruit or veggies but I assumed since the hosts were…

Last day of week 1! I didn't realize this would coincide with the Super Bowl... whoops! I'm not sure how I'm going to do today; I'm not a big sport fan, but will be at a Super Bowl/birthday party this afternoon, so I'm pretty sure some cake will be involved... so instead of focusing on what I shouldn't be eating, I will…

Took a long walk today, avoiding sweets so far, about half way with my water, and had my fruit. Now, I just need to get some veggies in for dinner and I'll be golden! How's everyone else's weekend going?
-
Happy Friday! Sorry I was a bit MIA today, was in an all-day conference. My head is spinning! But, they served water throughout the day so I got that down. Also, a tray of brownies and cookies came out, and I thought, NO. I will not do it! I even asked that they move the tray because I could smell the sugar and…

Happy Thursday! Wishing everyone a good healthy day today. Yesterday was pretty good for me, I got all the points. Just a little disappointed that I sat out and just stretched for the last 1/2 hr of my modern dance class last night due to an old foot issue (long story)... But I did do an hour and it's been a while since…
-
yes! why wouldn't it?
-
That's a good idea. I also try to have stackable veggies like cherry tomatoes and baby carrots. My husband doesn't like veggies but I've noticed if I chop them finely enough, he doesn't mind... haha! I'm sneaky like that!
-
Yes! I love the idea of a general chat area each week!
-
Thanks. Day 1 was great! I got all the points. Then yesterday I went out for brunch with a friend, she ordered dessert. The rest is history! Today should be good, I plan on going to dance class tonight... need to sweat out the sweets!
-
1. Yes, you are correct. 2. Ok, so I made a calculation error on the total points possible. You are right. Total possible would be 247. We can only earn points for no sweets for 6 days per week, and no alcohol for 5 days per week, on all weeks of the challenge. 3. Count all calories burned with whatever device you use. I…

Hi Team, Yesterday was definitely better for me, I used my free-bee sugary treat today but will hopefully forgo for the rest of the week. Tomorrow will be better!!
-
No objection here... go for it!! And, thank you!

On a team thread, someone asked if communicating with each other on their team discussion/thread would count as contacting a teammate. The answer is YES. You can contact each other any way you wish.
-
Yes, contributing to your team thread counts!
-
The deadline is 8:00pm Pacific Standard Time (which is 4:00am on Monday morning in the UK, so you will have some extra time on Sunday evenings!)

Ok, I'm joining team PURPLE. I could use some balance between stimulation/energy and calmness... We still need a team leader, and since I'm running the challenge I don't think it should be me (seems like it could be seen as unfair)... so, any takers??
-
Since no-one has chosen ORANGE yet, and we need teams to be formed by 8PM tonight (less than 2 hours), I think we should reserve this team for people who may join the challenge after the start date.
-
Team BLUE: Don't forget to choose a team leader tonight! Also, if you think 2 is too small of a team, then we may need to combine you with another one (unless more people join soon). But it's totally up to you. Maybe going at it as a pair or small team could be extra motivation (harder to get "lost" in the crowd).
-
Team YELLOW: Congrats! Your the first team to choose your team leader!
-
Team GREEN: Don't forget to choose your team leader tonight!
-
Team RED: Don't forget to choose your team leader tonight!
-
Team Purple: Don't forget to choose your team leader tonight!

If the instructions tab comes up when you open the document, click on the "tally" tab at the bottom of the page. From there you should see the spreadsheet. If it still doesn't work for you, send me a message and I'll see if I can figure out what's going on. If you can't print from the Google doc, you should be able to if…

Also, I've revised the spreadsheet to make it more clear.

To clarify: The 3,500 calories is for total calories burned within the week (exercise), not from cutting more calories from your nutrition/intake. As for sweets/sugary treats, the obvious list includes treats with high refined sugar content such as cookies, cakes, doughnuts, regular soda. If you choose a healthy…

Good question! We should weigh in on Sundays since that's the day that we give our weekly totals to our team leaders. I will need time to gather the totals to announce the weekly "winners" on Monday. If we waited for everyone to weigh in on Mondays, it would push everything back one day and then it gets confusing. My goal…

Ok, thank you! I will try this!
