Thank you!! Great job to you as well. I know it's tough to find time to exercise especially when working so much overtime.

I obliterated my goal again this week and got in 8.9 hours of exercise.

Only 3.25 hours this week. Busy week at work. Hopefully I will make up for it this week.
Thanks.

So for this week I got in 4 hours and 52 minutes of exercise sooo close to my 5 hour goal! Maybe I'll get on my stationary bike tonight and rock it out. Also tomorrow (Monday-Which I'm counting as the start of the new week) I'm planning on going to yoga and using the treadmill. I also have been going up and down between 209-211 lbs. Right now I'm at 210.2...trying to drink a lot of Protein Shakes and eat a lot of Protein Bars to break the stall! Hope everyone else had a great week! Can't wait to hear from you!

Wow amazing! Keep up the good work!!! ????????????????

I am upping my exercise goal to 3.5 hours per week.

I am in again! The last one really helped motivate me. ????
I am going for 3 hours/week.

Were we supposed to check in this Monday and I missed it? I met my goal, just barely! And weighed in at 211.

Hey everyone! Since a lot of people seemed to get good use out of the exercise challenge we are going to do it again. This one will run from here till 3/1/16! I don't have access to a google spreadsheet but luckily we had a poster make one last round so if anyone has access it would be greatly appreciated! Here is the outline:
Let everyone know your weekly exercise goal (how many hours)
Optional: Give your starting weight and goal weight for 3/1/16
Post weekly (Every Monday) if you were able to make your weekly goal and optional weight.
My goal is 3 hours of exercise per week (so far I have 1 hr 15 mins) and my starting weight is 210.4. My goal weight for 3/1/16 is 195.
Hope everyone gets good use out of this challenge, we are all here to cheer each other on!
