....so fun to read your blogs and Tyler, what's up with the blog title change? Diana, you have raised some fun kids! Thanks again for letting me join ya....
Ask Diana what a JRA is since she is the one that called her "golden child" a JRA. I'll just say it has something to do with an "ass" (oops, did I just say that?)
A "JRA" is a highly evolved specimin of the male species. A JRA is typically envied and hated by its "littermates" because of its genetic superiority and vast intelligence. Hence the reference to the "golden child".
Guess I'll have to give you the true meaning of JRA, Shannon. It was not one of my most shining moments I must admit. Tyler was teasing the crap out of me one day and in frustration I meant to call him a jackrabbit, but jackass was going through my head as well. Unfortunately, I called him a jackrabbit ass and it will NEVER be forgotten (for clarification, I almost NEVER swear). I also call my children "children of the corn" when I am frustrated -- you can probably understand why after looking at this blog.
Oh come on now mother, you dont have to be all worried about DCFS monitoring our blog. I am sure the statute of limitations has passed on the abuse that you rendered on my innocent soul. And yes of course I still remember that I promised to not say anything about the incidents involving the wooden spoon or hammers. Fact is, even if I had to witness the details of those horrifying events I most likely could not due to the short term memory loss that was incurred.
a perfect day is worth 100 points. a perfect day includes:
- 30 meal points: you earn 6 points per meal for eating five fully sanctioned meals. no snacks between meals. OR since none of us are following the game on food plan, use the 30 points according to how well you think you have done on the food plan you are following. it is a good idea to eat often to keep your metabolism going.
- 20 exercise points: you earn your exercise points by doing some form of exercise for 20 minutes per day. (exercise must raise heartbeat and increase breathing - i.e. can carry on a conversation, but can't sing a song).
- 10 water points: you earn your water points by drinking 3 liters of water per day. all or nothing.
- 15 sleep points: you earn your sleep points by sleeping for a minimum of seven hours a night (or trying to sleep).
- 20 transformation points: you earn 10 points a day for practicing one healthy new habit (must be measurable, meaning you know definitely that you have done it or not for the day) and another 10 points a day for eliminating one unhealthy old habit.
- 5 communication points: you earn your communication points by being in contact with at least one teammate and at least one opponent each day. posting on the blog counts for both. phone calls, emails, and text messages count.
- add 20% of total points earned if lost 1% of your starting weight for the week.
- add 10 points for reporting your score to the blog before noon on mondays.
- give yourself full points for your day off and your meal off.
PENALTIES:
- scale penalty: deduct 1 point each time you weigh yourself more than one time in one day.
- collusion penalty: deduct 20 points if you suggest cheating in the game (i.e. "i will not drink your water if you don't drink your water and then when we both lose our points, it will even out.")
- change your habit: deduct 50 points if you decide your habit is too hard and you change it mid game.
- since none of us are following the game on food plan, we won't be using the snacking penalty.

ReplyDeleteagain, let me just say, ass.
ReplyDeleteOk. I'm sensing some sibling rivalry going on here, (so fun) but I still don't know what a JRA is. I'm assuming that it's an acronym for something????
