Who? What? When? Where? Why? How?

Party People in da house!  Yo girls and guys!  There have been lots o' questions.  How do I join?  What's the Challenge?  How do I participate?  Who are these crazy chics?  Can I add content?  Can I link to you?  Can you add me?  How do I get on the blog roll?  It has been a regular 20 questions up in here!

Let me first say, the response to this has been overwhelming!  I set this site up Sunday afternoon and within the first day we had 40 followers.  We are quickly on our way to 70(only need one more) in just four short days!  People that is inspiring!  I am in awe!

Second - EVERYONE is welcome to join us.  "Can I join" is a silly question.  Of course you may!  This is not an exclusive club.  Come one, come all.  Anyone looking for a fun way to make friends, share experiences and get fit is welcome! 

So I have a little problem.  There are SEVERAL of you that have asked questions, and I can't respond to you because your email isn't viewable.  Please go into your profiles and change the option to make email viewable.  Otherwise, the team and I can't get back to you.  All your comments go unanswered or worse to noreply-comment@blogger.com  If I haven't answered your questions this is the reason.

I am going to work on the blog roll over the weekend.  If you aren't listed already and you want to be added please leave a comment and remind me.

If you left comments telling me you would like to link to me, or contribute content based on your expertise, etc...I want you to send me an email.  I couldn't respond to you because of above said email issue.  My email is adrienzgirl@gmail.com

A couple of you have broken down and hit the drive-thru at good ol' Mickey D's, or cheated in some way or other.  I want to offer you encouragement and tell you don't give up.  Look, there are 7 days in a week.  At least 3 meals a day.  That's 21 meals in a week, and 84 in a month.  Just because you eat badly one meal doesn't mean you throw in the towel.  There are 20 other meals in the week to make up for it.  Hey, that's still a 95%, and that is an A for effort!  Right? Right!

I will post recipes for you all on Saturday morning or late tonight.  We have some cued up and ready to go.  That way as you sit down and plan your meals for the upcoming week, and plan your run to the grocery, you can purchase the items you need for meals that look good to you!  My last tip, relates to this run to the grocery store.  DO NOT go to the grocery store hungry.  You will buy things you don't need.  You will buy things that will tempt you.  Just don't do it.

That's it for today.  Remember to fix your email, and send me emails if you want to contribute something.   ~Zgirl OUT!

And you are ohhhhh soooo right about the McDonald's thing. It's one meal....don't throw in the towel because of it. Walk an extra km or two to wear it off.

Zgirl, you're amazing! I can't believe how many women have joined up. And I really, really love your math. Now I don't feel so bad about the Big Mac thing on Monday (though as I said, it didn't hang around long enough to do any damage. Big Macs are like grease through a goose for me). Stepped in the scale today - I know I wasn't supposed to - and was sad that it hadn't moved, but I've got five more days until Weigh In Wednesday, do there's still hope it will start moving in the right direction.

Hello!

I would love to be on the blog roll please, and this is bad ass that it's taking off so well.

I have had the shittiest week, the one week in my DH's life he isn't motivated to work out or eat healthy!! So I restarted yesterday. Doing good. Need to write this shit down thought, good idea...

Since so many are being honest, I'll throw in my honesty as well. YES I too had a double cheese burger at McD's today. Ran right through me which was a grand thing to know there would be no boulders in the ass today but still makes me feel crappy (no pun intended) for the poor food choice.

Zgirl! You so rock! You really should wear the Tiara! For real! Thanks for taking charge of this and tossing out all that math (I would had to take my shoes and socks off and borrow someone else's hands too for figuring out all that).

Thanks for letting me be a part of this!

Thanks for the encouragement and it came at just the right time because....I just ate a hamburger and fries. oh and a handful of M&M's but the rest of the week I did great. But you know it's ok to eat that because I am not going to stop eating that ...I do know that I was full after and it is teaching me that the smaller I get the smaller the burger and fries should be. We should all try to remember that we can eat anything but in the right portions..handful of m&m's is much better than the huge bag I usually eat!

GunDiva said...

Zgirl, can you add me to the blog roll? Pretty, pretty please?
