    Mini challenge check in
    Sat: 1377 (walking dogs, biking 4 hours)
    Sun: 338 (walking dogs)
    Mon: 1648 (walking dogs, shoveling snow 2.5 hours, 60 minutes of Jillian Michaels workouts)

    total 3363

    It's funny because I thought the snow fall meant that I wouldn't get much exercising done but it snowed enough that I didn't have to go to work today so I used it to exercise a lot. Tomorrow I have off due to snow as well but I have a feeling I'm going to be might sore. However, I will have no problem finishing up the remain 137 calories.

    Actually, I went back and burned a few more. I just felt like getting on the treadmill and put in 2.2 miles (306 calories) so that I could end at a nice round 3000 calories burned so far!

    500 left. :drinker:

    Keep up the good work! It looks like you will be in your bikini by Summer!:wink:

And tomorrow night I have cadets, so Thursday I will be working really really hard. And then get one more in Friday morning before I go away for the weekend. I can do this.

    So true Kim.....:-) Friday nights used to be hard for me but last Friday I was good because I knew I was weighing in and chart would be posted! Funny thing that accountabilty. :laugh: It works!

    I peeked at the scale today and I am down, so I am really excited about Saturday because I may get my 10 early this month and I have 2 more weeks to go!

    Have a good day everyone and get in those last chance workouts!

    632 calories burned this morning with Insanity Max Cardio Conditioning. That means I've burned 3632 since Saturday! Challenge complete. :happy:

    I also love the chart. I usually weigh myself daily (it keeps me in check) but haven't had my scale around. So I'm pretty anxious to see what it will say for this week.

    I had two bad days with food this week... one day I went way over, and the other I just had junk cravings like crazy but still managed to stay within calories. I know I'm at a deficit on calories... hopefully my body and the scale agree!

    I with you there ..... the poor dog is going to run & hide if she sees me going for another walk :laugh: I did a silly thing & hopped on the scales yesterday morning & it showed me up 1lb which led to the bad day (well a bad few hours till I got some myself back on track) but I was over on calories but should be down for the week. With a big loss last week I'm afraid of the scale this week in case it decides to stay put :explode:

    ok... so one of my friends called and wanted to go to the gym at our college. This workout wasn't planned at all. But I was bored and my classes were cancelled today (snow) so it was nice to get out of the house. I worked out for over an hour and burned another 700 calories bringing my total so far to 4232 calories burned! Wow... that means I'll have over 5000 this week maybe! I think I may take the day off Friday - and I feel it is well deserved. But I won't be happy til I get to 5000 now since it's just one good workout away!

    I never burn this many in a week. I'm pretty proud of myself and I really hope it will pay off on the scale this week. But if not, I can't say I didn't try.

    I burned 1000 calories at the gym last night! sat was 600. So I have 1900 left to go. I believe I can do it. Tonight I will be on my stair machine as I watch Jersey Shore and I will not get off that thing until i have a serious burn in. Then my left over calories i will burn at a last chance workout tomorrow day and night. Thank you everyone for participating. I am proud of all of you.

    I got a good 80 minute workout in this morning and burned 773 calories bringing this week's total to 5005! I feel it though. Tomorrow is a rest day for sure. Good luck to everyone for the weigh in and on the challenge!

    Treadmill and car problems this week so I have had one bad piggy day and an extra "rest" day this week.
    I'm hoping to do a workout video tonight and then hitch a ride to the gym tomorrow.
    (Thank goodness for those trial passes!)
    I'm buying a brand new treadmill on Saturday.
    So i'll be weighing in on Sunday if that's okay.
    I don't think i'll be anywhere near the computer or scale Saturday.
    I"ll be trying to find a lovely treadmill :)

    Finally feeling better. I was sick for two days. Yesterday I was mostly confined to the couch. Feeling pretty restless but wasn't able to do anything about it so when I woke up feeling good (and yet another snow day from work) I decided to tackle the basement which is still full of boxes and totally unorganized almost 2 years after moving in. It feels good to be moving again.

    Sat: 1377 (walking dogs, 4 hour bike ride)
    Sun: 338 (walking dogs)
    Mon: 1648 (shoveling snow, walking dogs, work out videos)
    Tue: 455 (shoveling snow)
    Wed: 0
    Thur: 671 (moving boxes and rearranging furniture)
    = 4489

    4 snow days in a row make it possible to get a lot more exercising done! It came on a good week! Tomorrow should be good to finally walk the dogs again. They'll like that and it will burn a few more calories. Since I was sick, I gained 2.5lbs though so despite all the exercise, I think my weigh in will not be pretty.

    weight in 220

    Not as much weight as I would have liked this week, and I have been working out hard, and for the most part behaving on food, hopefully next week I will see better results.

    mini challange update burned 3200, so close to my goal, but going away today, so wont be able to hit it, next week I will for sure
