    monday: 27 min run
    tuesday: 45 min elliptical and 15 weights
    ...the way this week is going i don't know that i'll reach 360 but my goal is to get at least 30 minutes in everyday for the rest of the week :)

    add 40 min run for wednesday and 80 min walk today so now i am up to 207...153 to go :)

    friday: nothing-sick :(
    saturday: 3+ hours of cleaning for my brother's grad party so no real workout
    sunday: 25 min rollerblading
    so real working out 232 minutes but with cleaning over 400 :) not bad for a busy week!!!

    I think cleaning counts if it's extra and not the normal putting dishes away...You should count it!!!

    I hope I'm not too late, but I'd like to join in! So my name is Samantha, I am 22 yrs old, married, no kids just a cute little puppy named Vinnie! I love to spend every second with my husband and family, so I guess that's my down fall because they all eat what the want, so that makes me want to eat things I shouldn't. But I have been so much better since I've joined MFP. My current weight is 156 lbs and my goal is 135 lbs. I just started Chalean EXTREME yesterday and if I follow the routine and my eating the way I should by the time I'm supposed to be down with that I should be within a pound or so of my goal. My workouts this week so far include:
    Monday-9:00am Turbo Jam Cardio Party (45 min)
    5:30pm Chalean EXTREME Burn Circuit 1 (35 min)
    6:20pm Running stairs (20 min)
    7:30pm Running outdoors (30 min)
    Yesterday's total time= 130 min!!!!!!!!! That was a first for me never workout that long!

    This is my first post on MFP!!! I just joined a week ago! I am a 37 year old Wife and Mom. I am a Physical Therapist and my world seems to have revolved around my 2 boys who are involved in soccer, wrestling, basketball, piano, guitar and saxophone. I have been so busy with work full-time and attending all their functions, that I have let my fitness take a back seat. A little time for ME now. I LOVE a challenge like this. I am not so much concerned with losing weight, but just want to be in the shape I was in 8 years ago! I just love this site (although tracking my calories has been painful at times with my sweet tooth)! I have been running or elliptical 45 minutes a day so I will step it up a notch.

    That's what Mom's do...they put everyone else first and not themselves!!!!

    Today, I planted 3 raspberry shrubs and rode my bike to famous footwear and :blushing: Chipolte:bigsmile: ...my two youngest boys came with to buy new shoes. So, I am guessing each one was about 30 minutes each....if not more...then, I came home and took a 2 hour nap...those long work days kill me.

    At Chipolte, I had 1/2 the rice and no sour cream which is a slight improvement from normal

    Monday, nothing but work
    Tuesday, 30 minutes gardening and 30 minutes bike ride

    I do get good results with toning and strength. I didn't lost any pounds my first go round. This time I'm trying to add in the elliptical more often and 'trying' to focus on eating better so that I might be able to lose some pounds. It does get easier, then you move up a level. You can do it. It is a great workout for the time frame. I love it.
