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!

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

Yes! Awesome! I'm going to join you. I'd like to get in 5 hours of exercise a week up from 3. So far this week I've done 3 and I'm down to 209.4!

That is awesome!!! Congrats!!

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

I would like to join your challenge.. I am 5 months post-op. My starting weight at surgery was 320. My current weight is 226. My goal is to up my exercise from 3hrs a week to 5 hrs a week. My goal weight for this challenge is 210.

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!

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

Thanks.

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

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

This is still REALLY good. It's so important that you are trying and make sure you recognize that it's a success! Keep up the good work this upcoming week!

I made it to the gym 5 days last week and walked over 20,000 steps in NYC on Saturday so I had a good week 228.4 so not much movement but we all know how that goes!

Goal was 4 hours and I got in 5. Weight last week was 314 and was 308 this am.

Update: I won't be around for about the next week so if you don't hear from me that's why! But everyone keep up the great work and check ins!! Much love ~ Rebecca

Great Job to you too, Rebecca! .
