    Does this mean we have to eat extra to make for this 7000 calorie burn -- will our bodies require more fuel?

    I have done 1000 calories a day before and its tiring, but well worth it:)

    Saturday - 698 calories (65 minutes of Biggest Loser Wii Workouts including a custom cardio routine and yoga)

    Sunday - 530 calories (48 minutes with a 3-mile Walk Away the Pounds DVD by Leslie Sansone)

    So, my total is 1,228 calories. Only 2,272 to go.

    Monday - 0 calories. (That's right. I happen to be sick [to the stomach] again for the second time this month. Ugh, gallbladder surgery didn't help at all.)

    Tuesday - 227 calories (Still very sick, but I did it just for you guys! :) )

    I have until Friday on my little challenge. 1,455 out of 3,500. Only 2,045 left. About 700 calories per day. Pff, I can do that! (If I'm feeling better, ugh)

    I agree, burning 1000 per day is a ferocious goal. I know a hardcore spin class burns about 731 calories for me, but to do that plus another half hour or so it would take on the eliptical for 7 days in a row. Wow. Good luck!! Hope you all do great, I'm sure you'll pull it off with dedication. Keep us posted. I know I don't have the drive.

    2,372 out of 3,500. 1,128 left to go!

    Almost doubting that I burned that much. HRM must be wacky, but oh well. :) Still sick, yet completely crazy. Can't eat and I'm still exercising. I haven't even had 917 calories worth of food in the past 3 days. I was feeling a bit better, so I actually ate something for lunch today... Eh, it can't be too healthy to exercise and not eat. Thanksgiving is stressing me out just a wee bit.. And I might not even feel better tomorrow to eat anything!

    K, I am doing this from memory but, approximately:

    Sunday: 1080
    Monday - 1020
    Tuesday- 1010
    Wednesday- 1008

    Today so far - at least 500.
    Will be tricky today because I have to work and then go over to a friend's house. Maybe I can convince them to go on like a 5 mile walk! very very doubtful. then by the time I get home it will be dark (and I don't really want to walk/run out in the dark, and the gym is closed). maybe I'll do another easier workout video tonight, since I have the Insanity plyometrics in the morning. Eek! I really want to make it to 7000 by Sat night!! Good job everyone, and even if you didn't make 7000 it is still great that you pushed yourself -thats what counts!

    Was feeling better today and ate my share of Thanksgiving food. :) Thanks for being concerned collettemrk. I probably won't meet the challenge this week, but I'll try again next week.

    Thursday - 512 calories (more Biggest loser wii workouts)
