Biggest Loser Blue Team Week 7!!

[jennz]

Good afternoon Blue Teamers!! I'm making a new workout out CD while I type this...multi-tasking. I'm glad to see we're all coming together again!!

Did anyone watch the Biggest Loser last night? I was bummed when Pete and Doc were the team with the smallest % lost but I have to say WOW to Pete - he looks awesome now!!

I'll post totals and weeklys later today or tomorrow...right now I MUST exercise or I won't get in! Let the challenge begin!!

Here's the link to last week's thread...Week 6 link

Hey there Jenn, I asked this over on the Red Thread but i will repeat it here... now that they are merging around on the show, should we be merging or not yet? I like this new twist they have added of pairs on the show.

Have a great week Blue Team!
Mike

Oh - did you not LOVE it last night?! Although I was bummed to see Pete go (he and Doc are my favorites they are so sincere and genuine!) I was really pleased to see the dynamics and motivation in the male/female pairings! I thought it was going to be miserable but it was great! I just love this show it's so motivational for me (and I sure need it today! ) I even bought the book and read it while I'm on the treadmill.

Yes I know I didn't answer your question... I would be up for merging the teams into one, ours is slowly dwindling and yours seemed less active last week. It's getting tough as we're into week 7 and I know I could use a little extra help...but I'll go with the group consensus.

So everyone let's vote..stay separate or merge into one team? Or do we want to try to pair up?

I watched the show last night and have to say that I was crying during the elimination and when Pete got home. It was such a touching moment. I think the teams are more fair now. Although, what is going to happen to Doc? Will he join another team? He's always been my favorite...along with Pete.

I think the Blue & Red team should merge into one. Especially now that our participation is dwindling. We need all of the encouragement that we can get!

 

[MinnieMouseMom]

Whichever way is fine with me. I'm easy.

Loved TBL last night! Pete looks really good!

Shoot - I *never* get to see the show this season.

Sorry I haven't been more active with posting. I have been sucked into baseball and the World Series! Let's hope the Sox clinch it tonight so I can try to get back to my 'normal' life!

 

[jennz]

Welcome back Terry! Congrats on your awesome loss! Yep now it's "go sox" at our house too...just watching the game and checking the Dis.

Hi! Three Halloween/Fall parties are finally over! I have said no to a lot of sweets but unfortunately have not had a lot of time for exercise. I hope to get back on track with that soon!

Everyone get moving!!

I'm up for merging. The more people to motivate me the better! I would also like some sort of challenge about not eating more than one (maybe two) pieces of Halloween candy. I'm dreading all my kids will bring home!

 

[Mykelogan]

Merge! Merge! Merge! Merge!

 

[geetey]

Why does this suddenly feel like a Survivor thread??

I don't have a problem with merging! We need to keep these pounds DROPPING off, not team members!

 

[jennz]

Well it sounds like we're for merging...I'll check out the Red thread and see if they have comments. Meanwhile do we need a new name? Do we comine Blue and Red and be Bled? Doesn't sound too good. Purple? Anyone more creative than me? The sad thing is I think I'm pretty funny...I probably should have slept more last night.

Jennifer ~ I think "Purple Team" is great because it combines the red & blue. Good suggestion!

I did the NordicTrack again last night for 30 minutes. I increased the incline and tension and went faster. I got a great workout. When I do my floor aerobics for 45 minutes, it is worth 3 extra WW points. When I do 30 minutes on the NordicTrack, it is worth 4 extra WW points. I know why now!

Purple sounds good to me too!! Great suggestion Jennifer!

Great job on the exercise everyone! I am going to hold off on exercise for a couple more days. I'm trying to let myself get completely over being sick. There are too many people around here coming down with pneumonia right now and I don't want to be one of them.

Have a great day!!!

 

[MinnieMouseMom]

Purple would be my choice. Although Bled is kinda funny.

Today is the first weekday that I didn't exercise since Sept. 30. The last few nights I've had a chest pain right by my heart area so I'm wondering if I didn't pull a muscle or something. It never gets worse, it's constant. My body's so wacky that it may be in relation to TTOTM and my anxiety.

 

[jennz]

okay Purple it is... the link to the new team thread is here

 

[geetey]

Ah, bummer. I thought Bled was pretty funny!
See you on the new thread!
