So
. here is our second COW. For those who dont know the rules about the COWS, I will post a new COW sometime every Thursday. Each challenge week begins 12:01 am Friday morning and runs till midnight Thursday night. I figure posting the COW on Thursday gives you a little time to plan out how best to complete the challenge before the clock starts. Please email or PM me your score by Monday morning of the following week. (So tomorrows challenge score is due the 20th, although I recommend you pm or email it to me on Friday when you email Brenda your weight.)
If you chose not to do the COWs at all, or only get around to doing a few items on the list that is perfectly fine. You will not hurt your team. The idea is to get you thinking and doing new things on this road to a new you, not to stress you out.
Please email or PM me your scores from last week beginning Friday. My email is ferretfeet@gmail.com if that is easier. Dont forget to include your board name, team color and of course your score.
1 Take the stairs. This should be intentional stair walking as opposed to taking an escalator or elevator. This is above and beyond the basic stair usage such as walking up the stairs to tuck the kids in bed. Unless you are going up and down the stairs during a commercial break, most stairs in your home should not count (1 point for each flight-max 15)
2 Drink 6 glasses of water each day this week (5 points for each successful day -max 30)
3 Do something that is "on your list" that you have been putting off (10 points each- max 30)
4 Write a heartfelt letter to someone who influenced your life. Even if you have no idea where they are today. If you do, feel free to send it to them! (15 points)
5 Discuss with the group some ways you deal with stress that are healthy (and not so healthy) and how you plan on altering the not so healthy ways (10 points)
This thread is for all losers. Just like the Biggest Loser TV show challenges this is the place where you cheer for people not necessarily on your team. This is the place to get to know the other teams members and make the whole group a big community. Now of course you still have to return home from this little utopia, since after all this is a competition.
So Ladies, lets have a COW!
