Update: Vicki has to rest!

Hi All,

Vicki just asked me to pull her from EFC until after she recovers from child birth (and she already had three days in this week!). Yesterday she was put on maternity leave by her doctor and will have to rest, though technically she isn't on "bed rest" right now. The little one is trying to make an early appearance and he's not quite big enough to be born yet, so Vicki has to take it easy for the next few weeks.....she's already dreading the inactivity! I tried to bolster her spirits by reminding her she can research exercise and fitness to post to this blog! :) Please send Vicki your best thoughts and prayers while she goes through the next few weeks until the baby is big enough to be born.

Thanks,

Shan

Hi all - My name is Theresa!

I just wanted to drop a note to say hello and introduce myself! My name is Theresa Garon-Ford and I met Vicki and Shannon through Bunco. They are both warm and friendly ladies and I am so glad we met. They have both made me feel so welcomed into our Bunco group. Vicki told me about this exercise blog; I finally feel ready to commit to a long term exercise program -- most of all, joining this group as there is so much accountability AND I get coffee if I religiously exercise. Yes! I love my coffee. So, two benefits -- coffee and getting toned.

So far. so good. I worked out 3 times this week. Thanks again for the invite ladies.

Welcome Allyson!

I wanted to introduce Allyson to our group - she works with me in Probation. I hope I didn't guilt her (too much, anyway) into joining but I'm happy she's here. Welcome Allyson!!

Post your tallies!

Hi all,

I know I've been slacking on setting up the tallies portion of the blog and doing the drawings. All the weeks are set up now. Please update your tallies, and I do drawings for the last two 4-week sessions. Where does the time go?

Welcome to Theresa!!! I'm pleased you joined our little group!

Why We're Doing This

A group of us came together with this strange idea that exercise is a good thing and we all needed to do it. This came about during the holidays, when the food is fatening and the motivation to exercise is weak. It was decided if we were going to make exercise a weekly habit, that four times each week is a minimum in order to lose or maintain a desired weight. And the prime motivator was, of course, coffee! We hope to keep our particpants going with support and caffine through the word of the blog. We invite others to join us in our bizare but noble cause!

How It Works

If anyone doesn't make four workouts in a week,that person(s) owes one coffee card ($3.50) up to the monthly"kitty". For each week any of us makes all four work-outs will get a "ticket". After four weeks, if there is any coffee cards in the kitty, we will have a drawing. So if you work out 4 days a week for 4 weeks you would have 4 chances to win ALL the coffee cards. If you make it only 3 weeks, you would have 3 chances to win and so on. There may or may not be any coffee cards in the "Kitty" to be won, but it sure would be a great"prize" if there were multiple coffee cards. This way we can have as many members in our "Exercise For Coffee" club or"EFC". Shannon will write our names on tickets, then we report in to each other on the blog. An impartial person will pick the winning ticket. Who ever owes coffeecards can then send them to the winner each month. We will exchange email and mailing address off the blog for confidentiality reasons.
