Biggest Loser Blue Team Challenge

[QuiltTeddy]

So will someone be posting the totals for both teams?

 

[Laurajean1014]

Okay Blue Team - I was reading the Red Team thread and they're going to use our "Just Say No" challenge...shall we make an official challenge to them for this coming week? Who's up for some friendly team competition? I think some of our members are already taking on Mike from the Red Team in the parking lot!

Also noticed many of their members are posting their weekly loss already so morning weigh-ins are okay.

Jennz - Are you are official "spy?" If so, good job!

I'm up for the competition!

Will these help anyone to get motivated?

Is it me or are these guys looking a bit curvier????

 

[Laurajean1014]

I lost one pound this week. Not great but I'll take it!

Samantha - Great Job! Take a lb. of butter and think it's off of you! Very impressive!

 

[Laurajean1014]

I just got in, I worked from 8:00 this morning until 8:30 tonight so I did not get any exercise in. I did weigh myself this evening, I have lost 4 pounds!!!! I am so happy! I know that if I had exercised more I probably could have lost more, but that gives me incentive for next week!!!
GO BLUE TEAM

Wow! Excellent job!

[Laurajean1014]

I weighed in tonight and I am down 3.5 pounds!!! And I came home and walked 2 miles (30 minutes) with my WATP video before I did anything else.

Everyone is doing such a great job! We are all becoming movers and losers GO BLUE!!!

Come on everyone lets move it and lose it!!!

Grrrrrrreat Job!

We have had some great losses this week!! I am so excited for everyone

I want to congratulate everone on a fantastic first week. We have been passing up cake and pizza. We have lost small sacks of potatoes from our bodies and we are starting to move! It's all about making good choices and moving our bodies. I couldn't think of a better group of people to be getting healthy with.

I want to thank Mike for motivating me this morning so I am dedicating my 2 mile WATP workout this morning to Mike and his cheesecake. I actually set my alarm 15 minutes earlier last night, that is 4:45 am , to get up and work out this morning. I did it!!! I also parked farther away in the parking lot for work this morning.

Time to get to get working. I will check in later. I hope everyone has a wonderful day!!

Put me down for a 2.4 lb loss!

I am checking in for the first time. I'm sorry I didn't check in before, but now I'm ready for some mini-challenges .

I have about 20 lbs total to lose. The same 20 pounds I have been trying to lose for the last year after a sucessful loss of 20 pounds last spring. I'll be doing a low-carb thing. I lost my first 20 lbs on Atkins, but I have too many tomatoes and red peppers in my garden right now to do induction.

ETA: I just noticed my blue tag. Way cool!

 

[jennz]

WOW! We're at 35.5 pounds gone! Excellent job everyone! We have 3 more team members to record (sap1227 won't be weighing in this week as she is on the Wonder right now! ).

Mike seems to be motivating quite a few people to exercise...maybe he should be our fitness guru??

I'm not sure where team total losses will be but I'll post once I see it...if someone else sees it first please let me know!

I posted my weight loss on the weigh-in thread. I'm down one pound. Not great, but I'll take it. Hopefully, I can continue losing at least one pound a week. It is really hard for me to lose weight. Do y'all want to kick me off the team?

 

[jennz]

Absolutely not! One pound is awesome! It creeps up on you and it creeps off of you. Find something that weighs a pound (my favorite is 1# of butter) and be amazed that that much came off of you! I expect that just like on the show people will lose a lot the first and maybe second weeks and then it's going to taper off to 1 - 3 pounds/week. That is great news - it's nasty fat that's going away! So...you're still on the team don't even worry about it! Keep saying your no's to food and yesses to moving and it'll keep coming off and you'll be creating healthy habits at the same time!

 

[PRINCESS VIJA]

Wow, everyone is doing a fantastic job! I am down 1#! I agree with Samantha that I'll take it, but I want more off!!!! Just glad to add to the team total.

Thanks to you guys, I got up this morning and exercised to a new DVD I bought, one of the crunch videos. I worked it and worked up a sweat! I am off to the grocery store and I am saying NO to the cookies!

so, after we post our loss for the week, do we then go and start checking in on the week 2 thread?

 

[dopey4disney]

Sheila - Congratulations!! One pound is an awesome loss. Like Jennifer said it didn't come on over night and it won't come off over night. Just keep doing what you are doing and you will get there. Remember slow and steady wins the race.

Princess Vija - Congratulations on the 1 pound loss and WTG on the exercise.

Go BLUE!!!

Hi Blue Team!!

Congrats on your great losses!! I should have known better than to try and tempt you all with cheesecake! I would love to be your work out guru too!!! I can be very "Jillian" if need be! (You'll have to have watched the show to know what that one means! She rocks!)

To make up for it, I have booked you all a weeks vacation at WDW with rooms in the Contemporary tower. I of course have added the meal plan and made you some wonderful ADRs at Chef Mickey's, Ohana's, Crystal Palace, etc. Enjoy the chocolate covered strawberries and welcome cakes I am having delivered to your rooms!

hehe!
Mike
