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!

So far this week I've almost made my goal of 5 hours but today I went out shopping and I bought TWO PAIRS OF SIZE 14 JEANS!!!!!!! When I got my surgery I was a 24 so this was a BIG accomplishment! Just felt like sharing it!

Great job!!!!! You go girl!!!

That is AWESOME news!!!! Congrats!!! Very proud of you!!

I got in 5.5 hours of exercise this week. Really enjoyed hiking both yesterday and today.

I have 4.15 hours this week.

Thanks ????

I got in around my goal of 5 hours this week. Still struggling with my stall between 206-209 however was thrilled to fit into a new size 14 pair of jeans! So I'd consider this week to be good, still think I'm losing inches. Also bought myself a new Pilates DVD to use in my spare time at home along with my stationary bike- we'll see how it is! Congrats to everyone for doing so well!

Hey @@Rebeccaabrooks86

How is it going this week? I have upped my workout times but missed a day so I only got in 3.75 hours this week.

I am just curious how many of us are still doing this challenge? I like having the accountability of needing to report my workouts each week, but I get that it might not be the biggest motivation for everyone.

I think about 5 people are still reporting each week. I like the motivation too. I wish we had a spreadsheet but I don't have access to the Google docs. But I hope you keep up the good work. I'm happy that everyone finds it to be motivational and supportive.

I'm still in... though i didn't quite meet my 4 hour goal. Got in 3 hours At the same time, I did come out of my stall and weighed in at 300.8 this am. Almost 101 lb loss since orientation - first week of August.

Awesome you're almost below 300!!! Keep it up!!! That's amazing, good job!!!

Stuck at 178.1 this week. But did get 4 hours of exercise. Yeah

Great Job on getting in 4 hours!!! I just joined a walking club in my town and signed up for a bootcamp class starting Friday. Unfortunately I keep going between 206-209. I'm thinking some of its muscle though because I've been really sticking to my exercise and diet. But it stinks to see the scale not move!

Hang in there. Be carefull with the bootcamp. Pretty intense,don't injure yourself

I'm upping my workout goal from 3 hours to 4 hours , I'm adding a Zumba class at least once a week. I hope to be up to 5 hours by 3/1
