The percentages are a little lower than the past week because we based them on this week and not on the total. The last week will be based on total so that we can see how far we have come.
Good job Black Team on the third week in a row.
I don't have individual percentages firgure out but I will let you know either tonight or tomorrow morning.
For the weekly challenge we only had about 1/2 of the group participate. Only a few more people and we might have won the weekly challenge. Good job to all who participated in the weekly challenge. Let's see what we can do for this week's challenge.
There will be one more weekly challenge coming up next week and then we will take a break for a week and then three more weeks. I think that is how it is going to go but I will let you know.
If you haven't started the exercise challenge for this week, give it a try. It is not that hard and we could get some extra points for the team.
Keep up the hard work losing weight. I know that it is not easy and now is the time that a lot of people give up. Stay strong and focused for the team. Try to report every day or two to tell us how you have been doing.
When you report in try to list one good thing that has happened to you since you reported in last.
My good thing for the day. Last night I was treating my 17 yr old ds2 to dinner at McDonald's. I had budgeted in my calories so I could also eat there. He has finished his chicken nuggets and looked at the fries and said "These don't look as appetizing as they used to. With all the healthy foods that are around the house I guess I am getting used to those." That made me feel really good.
Have a great day. Need to get in a yoga routine before or after the pep rally I have to tranport kids to.
Go Black Team
As for good things that have happened to me since I last posted. A big one was yesterday. Over the past week and a half I've really commited myself to othat gym membership I have and taking advantage of it. DH & I have been going for at least an hour a day aiming for at least 6 days if not 7 and doing great. Last night we had an unexpected dinner out with friends and there was no way to squeeze in a work out. After only 1 1/2 weeks of this increased gym participation I missed it. ME? missing the gym - crazy. Wow did that feel good 
I think I'm finally getting the hang of this healthy living stuff 
I always watch those working out hard and how their shirts are even wet by the time they are done. I have joined that club as I was a mess at the end of my workout but a good mess! I am getting off early today and you know what I'm looking forward to? Getting to the gym early so I can have a good workout. What? Who is this person? I kid you not three weeks ago I would have laughed if you would have said I would have spent an hour a day at the gym for the past couple weeks. That's not me - but guess what - inside me is a little athlete just trying to come out! 
I haven't done my run yet today since I need to go study first (I study better first thing when I'm fresh; if I wait til after I run, I will be falling asleep on my books-I need naps at my age 
). Because I have to study this weekend, I'm only planning on 1 1/2 hours on Saturday and Sunday. If I have the time, I will up it to the 2 hours I usually like to do on the weekends. So that means I can get extra points on Monday and Tuesday if I have time to add a little to those days. We can always hope, can't we? 
). I'm feeling pretty okay with the science only because I'm good at studying, not necessarily good at the subject. I am getting my elementary education degree but will have a double major once I transfer next year to get my middle school certification. Right now I want to teach middle school science and hope to get my degree in Earth Space science (gosh I love that subject!!!). But since I've change my mind about the subject I want to teach in MS 3 times, who knows, especially since this science I'm taking is physical science and I really don't love physical science.
