Any thoughts on a team name???
In these weekly team posts, everyone should be posting their WEEKLY GOALS. You don't have to post an exercise schedule if you don't want to, you just have to get your cardio and water requirements in throughout the week. You do have to post goals for the week, though. You should post your Week 1 Goals in this postIn the week two team post, everyone will post their RESULTS plus their goals for the following week. You can copy and paste the following if you want:
REQUIREMENTS:

i'm here!
this week is very busy with social events and our anniversary, and i am hoping setting some goals will keep me on track!
my goals for the week are:
1. stretch 3x a day EVERY day and ice (i'm really bad about this and im paying for it in pain!)
2. eat a sbd-friendly dinner on wednesday (not that i wont do this all the other nights, but some friends from work are going out to dinner... lately when ive been going out to eat i have been so not good.)
3. 2 SMALL non-sbd treats this week will be for my little sister's b-day (i'm making her cake!) and our anniversary. no other treats!
my food has been really bad recently. ok not really bad, but ive been having alot more "treats" and more grains/starches than usual. i'm currently training for a marathon, so i have been using that as an excuse to eat more bad things, like "i ran 8 miles and burned 910 calories this morning so i can have a bagel". and its true that i need more food and more carbs, but it doesnt mean i can have 3 cookies like i did last night and count that as carb loading!
i am really looking forward to this challenge and hearing from my other teammates! |

Hi Everyone -
I'm here! GO TEAM! I'll brainstorm some names later tonight.
NEXT WEEK'S GOALS:
1. Do a set of abdominal work with each workout - I've been slacking!
2. No eating out - no excuses since i just got back from the grocery store.
3. Eat only SB foods all week, no sneaking in treats
WORKOUT SCHEDULE:
Mon - off
Tues - Cardio and Fit Factor class at gym
Wed - Spin class
Thurs - Run/Walk on treadmill
Fri - off
Sat - Barbell class and cardio
Sun - Spin class
I've been bad at sneaking treats here and there, lots of b-day parties which means b-day cake. I have another one on Friday night so I made it part of my goal not to have ANY cake :P |

Hey all.
Here I go .... I hope to just come back and edit this post (that's acceptable right?).
My goals for this week are:
1. Pack food for work every day M-F (even if it can't be everything, in the least it has to be acceptable snacks).
2. Journal what I've eaten everyday. I usually keep track of this at work and then post it in my journal after a couple of days. It should be in my journal by the time Meemoo has to calculate points.
3. No diet soda at work.
REQUIREMENTS:
Cardio: __workouts @ 5 points each = __points
Strength:__ workouts @ 5 points each = __ points
Water: __/7 days @ 2 points each = __ points
Goals: Met __/3 goals @ 5 points each = __ points
TOTAL REQUIREMENT POINTS: __ POINTS

Hi all I'm here! :) I have been way way off the beach as of late...ok for quite awhile now and have manage to pack on about 15lbs. I am determined to get it off and then some. I know that this week will not be that great. I'll be on vacation (camping friday thru monday) but then I plan to try phase 1 again for awhile.
My goals for the week
1. Get my exercise in by Friday, then I won't have to do any when I'm camping, but if I do it will be extra.
2. Stretch my lower back once everyday.
3. Clean eating M-Thursday.
I'm going to try to start the couch to 5k training program this week. Has anyone tried it? Any pointers on starting to runj?
Have a great first day tomorrow!

Hey, I'm here- better late than never!
Week One goals:
1) To run at least 2.25 mi 2 days this week
2) To track my strength/cardio workouts on my CORE chart (with milages and weights to see progress)
3) To get up early enough this week to make myself breakfast before work (I teach, so this is the first time I've had to get my a*# up in about three weeks).
Some team name suggestions:
The FlaxSeed Fanclub
Hmm. have to brainstorm some more |

I just wanted to insert a general reminder to everyone that challenge REQUIREMENTS cannot be part of your personal GOALS. For example, since drinking water is part of a requirement, you can't make it a goal to drink your water every day. Same goes for bonus point things - you wouldn't be able to make it a goal to do a 90-minute workout or extra workouts during the week, because you'd also get a bonus for doing that. But maybe the type of exercise could be a goal. For example, I've seen goals about doing extra ab or glute work everyday. Something like that might work.
Does that make sense? please feel free to PM me if any of you have questions about anything ...
Good Luck this week!! |

Ok, I guess that means I have to change my goal #1.
Week One goals:
1) To get to bed before 11 each night. (this is my new, edited goal)
2) To track my strength/cardio workouts on my CORE chart (with mileages and weights to see progress)
3) To get up early enough this week to make myself breakfast before work (I teach, so this is the first time I've had to get my a*# up in about three weeks).
Team Name Ideas:
We Know Beans
Taking A Load Off
Waists of Space
Waist Not, Want Not
and my personal favorite, direct, to the point....
Liposuction is Too Expensive (just kidding!)[/b] |

I like "No Moo Jiggles" too. That's great, although I'm getting the biggest jiggle in my belly with this baby starting to move around.
I did great yesterday, 2 cardio and 1 strength session. Plus all my water! Yay for me! Already did a cardio this morning and now finally sitting down to eat breakfast. Good luck today everyone! |
