Ok, ladies. I'm swashbuckling my way through my 10-year college reunion this weekend. Lots of fun so far, but lots of food too. Sigh. I've told like 5 people that I have bad "allergies" just so I can stay away from the buffet table. It works! Friday Plan B done Friday water and calories - good to go! Mini challenge met…

Aye, Caps! S.O. informs me that still no cable or internet at home. (I'd like to make Comcast walk the plank today....). So, I planned out dinner and snacks, pushed the water to be done now, and did Plan B, plus a 3.25 mile walk. Probably won't be back on today, but wanted to make sure I check in. Diary submitted and I…

Howdy team - My apologies for the lack of check in last night. I got home after choir practice at 9:30 PM to non-working internet. So, no internet = no check-in. Yesterday, I was good to go on challenge (B), water, and calories. I'm sorry it doesn't count, but I'm still glad to have succeeded! Today, done with challenge,…

Yo ho ho...a low-cal life for me! ;) Plan B done Water done Calories close, done. Had a big event at work with open buffet. Sigh. BUT...stayed away from the bar to make sure I stayed under calories. Yay! Now off to dream sweet pirate dreams.

It is great to e-meet all of you, and thanks for sharing your stories! Today's successes: Plan B (Mid Impact) - done! Calories - done! Water - done! Plus 8 miles on my bike. So, I'm pooped, but happy. :-D

Hi all! I'm excited to be part of this team, and to get to know everyone else. This is going to be the most booty-kicking October ever! Starting weight: 260 Current weight: 240 Goal weight: 185 End o'October goal: 230 I've been heavy my whole life and come from a family of 10 other very big people. I was 200+ pounds by the…

Challenges all met for this week - exercise, water, and calories! Whoo hoo! Just one more week, now. Let's finish up strong!!!

Howdy team! I'm working hard this week (to make up for some over days last week). Good on all challenges, calories, and water so far. Water is pretty hard for me, but I'm keeping at it! I'm hoping to hang in there over the weekend, as I have a work trip all day tomorrow. Traveling is always tough on calories for me. Keep…

I'm good for all of the challenges this week, but failed on calories on Wednesday and Friday. Sorry, team! Back on track now!

Done with challenge and water. Will be fine on calories, too. Go team, go!!!

Hi Starleng1 ~ I'm totally with you on the long days! I have a full day job, plus another almost full on the side, so I often only get home long enough to look at my bed before I pass out. One thing that I've been able to do lately is to plan ahead for the week. Usually, I have Sunday evenings off (not every week, though),…

Howdy everyone! I was a little confused by the day/week switch mentioned earlier, but I think I've figured it out now. So far I have done all the Pygmy challenges each day, and have met the water and calorie goals. I've also been stealing an exercise or two to add in from the Bushman series, but they are a little much for…

Also, since I haven't done a challenge before, how do we "log" our completion of the daily challenge? In our MFP diary? On this blog? Send the captain a message? Thanks!

Hi dbaumgarn - I had the same question, so I looked it up online. Basically, it is bicep curls split up three ways: 7 lower half only curls (just come up to elbow height), then 7 upper half only curls (from the elbow up to shoulder), then 7 full motion curls. Here's a very clear video on YouTube:…

Hi all - I started a Google Calendar for the challenge, if anyone is interested in using it for themselves. You can layer it over your own calendar (if you use google/gmail already - click on the +Google logo in the bottom corner), or you can just access the html link to see the details. Click on the event to see the…

This looks awesome! And a little terrifying - haha! This is my first challenge on MFP, so my big goal is to do it, stick with it, and love it! I also am pretty bad about water, so I'll have to push that hard. My outside-the-gym challenge is going to be that I have multiple trips in September, so I'll need to figure out…
