As a fellow Canuck, I will say, YES!. It keeps me motivated, they celebrate my successes, console me when things are going bad in diet as well as life and are just fun to read posts from. I got into challenges with my MFP friends and that has really helped.

Lee, I love this challenge and am disappointed to hear that even if we Island Hoppers win, there is no prize :( Seriously, I am extremely competitive even if there is nothing to win (except my own self-respect) but I would not resort to cheating. There goes the self-respect thing. Perhaps the persons doing this were not…

This sounds yummy. I will have to try it.

Well, I was just on the map and interesting thing that I noticed. There are 2 teams ahead of us. One has not picture, so it is not showing on the map. They are a sneaky bunch. Watch out for "Chips Ahoy" They are actually in the lead.
-
Thanks for sharing. I love them. Will need to put some on my desktop.

You're right Cynthia, I should take more pictures of this journey, but am terrible getting in front of a camera. Thanks for the compliments, I needed them. I love getting out playing golf now, walking the dog, going for a bike ride as I do feel great and do not get winded like I used to. I should probably not be so hard on…

Wow, we are doing awesome. You are all doing a great job. I don't know how those of you who work for a living get in so much exercise, it is awesome. I love the variety of exercise everyone is getting too, I try to mix it up, but there are some things I have yet to try. I am going to get on that Jacob's Ladder this month…

My face and neck area. When I look at my before and after pictures, I can't believe I am the same person. <<<< The pic on here is the before one.

Some of these responses are so thought provoking. You guys are such an inspiration. I thinkthat MFP is the greatest site in the world and that the people I have met on here have been my salvation, motivators etc. I knowthat I am a good person and try to live by Christian values I wantto become healthy again I lovemyself,…

I think I will start this as well. Not until Monday the 6th, because I am going away this weekend, then I am right on this.

Hey everyone, I am Carla and have been retired for just over 1 year. And believe it or not, I was one of those administrators for the last 10 years of my career. That is when I started my journey seriously. I had lost about 90 pounds but have put about 7 back on. It is time to get serious again. Because i am retired, I do…

Did not keep track on here for July because I was really busy and had a few other challenges on tap. Here is my July totals so far: July 1: 1329 July 2 - 8: 10780 July 9 - 15: 11493 July 16 - 22: 12256 July 23 - 29: 7560 July 30: July 31: Total for July so far: 43,481 (could be my highest month yet) Total for January:…

Rebecca, I wanted to say thanks for putting this challenge together. I really enjoyed it. I did some stuff that I don't normally do. Some no brainer stuff, like treading water instead of floating around on a noodle has really helped to build my arms. I actually started doing stuff with the kids in the neighbourhood like…
-
My arms are ready to go, row, row, row your boat. I hope to see many islands on this trip, Let's Party!!1
-
I have logged everything as well. I enjoyed this challenge as it did motivate me to do some things i normally would not have done. It was fun. You guys all did well. It looks like we will finish in the Bronze position which is not too shabby. I am watching the Opening Ceremonies as I type this, it has been awesome. I too,…

It looks like it reset to me too, not sure though.
-
Wow, you guys are awesome. I noticed that everyone is trying something new and that is fantastic. No Becky, I do not think Wii tennis counts, badminton does though if you have that one. I have done fencing, boxing, table tennis, badminton on the Wii to get points. I am concentrating on swimming, bike and walk/short runs…
-
I know this is not my thread but just wanted to say how well you are all doing. Phitbits turned Cake Eaters, you are kicking our butts, but that is okay as we are all on here for one thing. Congrats to you guys. (Tim, thanks for that false sense of superiority we had before you logged all your runs, put me in my place :))…
-
Well, I did it. I borrowed the neighbours' Wii Resort DVD and completed Archery and Fencing. I actually worked up a sweat with the fencing but not the archery, it was pretty boring. It put me over the 20 events though so I got the 2,000 bonus points for our team. We are still hanging in there at third. Those Cake Eaters…
-
Well, I only have to do one more event to get my 20. The kids next door say they have virtual badminton and fencing for Wii, so I need to see if I can borrow it. Played tennis yesterday and i am the most uncoordinated person out there. In half an hour, I only scored 5 points. Got my *kitten* kicked and will not be playing…

Hello again Ringers, Yes, when I do the 400 or 100, I run, well it is not as fast as others, but it is as fast as I can go for those. I use the 1 mile walk when I take the dog for a walk (which is usually everyday) for at least 1.5 to 2 miles. Well, I got the Wii hooked up today. I know I did not do it right because it is…
-
Wow, Ringers you are doing awesome. We are now in the Silver position and only 300 points out of first. You guys have really been working this week. I have been trying to concentrate on the events that get the higher points (20K bike, 1mile swim and at least the 5K walk) as well as my zumba, aquafit, and other water stuff.…

[/quote] You can do it! I've seen you have amazing burn in "Row the World" ! Go for it! [/quote] Thanks for the vote of confidence. I made it pretty close so am happy with the month. Will have to work just a little harder next month.

Well I made it. I did not keep a totally accurate list but know that these have been underestimated. Swimming: 9 miles Walking (jogging): 86 miles Bike: 135 miles I am very surprised and happy with these totals. Now if I can get my eating back under control, I will get back to losing pounds. Thanks for putting this…

Holy Crap, we are doing good. Had a very busy weekend so it was great to log in and see you had done all the work for me Becky. Thanks. We are less than 5000 points our of silver so it is not unreachable and 6000 points out of gold. I do plan to reach the 20 events by the end of this week, so will get 2000 bonus points for…
