    Weekly Goal: 3500 - I walk a lot so I've got a fitbit but its not syncing at the minute so I don't know many calories I've actually burned. However I want to use this challenge to burn 3500 doing exercise at the gym on top of my walking so although they aren't 100% accurate i'm going to use the gym machines estimates as the numbers.

    1st Aug: 570 cals burned (20 min elliptical, 30 mins intervals on the treadmilll)

    I do not use MFP to calculate calories I believe they are grossly overestimated. I will also be rounding down in 50 increments to keep adding easier.
