    I love the feeling of working out in the morning! Just finished Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 this morning! My goal is 4 morning workouts this week so I'm half way there!

    @Ninerz113 - hey I am doing the JM Ripped in 30 too! I just started on Sunday after buying the DVD on Saturday. What do you think of it? Today will be day 3 for me.

    I felt the same way last Saturday. My OnDemand stop working mid-workout so my morning was all broke up. You definitely have the motivation there - maybe check out Exercise TV online, self.com workouts, youtube workouts - you can make it happen! :wink:

    Must be something in the air! On Saturday, my mini stepper overheated and broke, then I burned my fingers picking up the piece that broke off (thankfully, I had already done my weights for the day 'cause I don't think I would have been able to pick them up). My ipod quit working half-way through my sationary bike.

    I'm up this morning. I've already Shredded and just trying to decide between L2 Shred or Mini Stepper? Hmmmmm

    I love it! I pre-ordered it so I got my copy last week and I just started week 2 this morning. Week 1 was fairly challenging but definitely doable if you're used to her 3-2-1 system (from 30 day shred). I am nervous/excited for weeks 3 and 4 because I think they are going to kick my butt!

    Ran 4 miles at 9 min/mile pace at 4:00am. Much warmer today than yesterday. Feels good to get the workout in early.

    @tmccutcheon - you are getting that early early morning workout - GREAT! Please don't forget to track your weekly progress on this form for the challenge so I can record our group's success at the end of the week.

    you should find your MFP name in the drop down list: https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&pli=1&formkey=dHlYUldZRE4zbm1PT29weFVXMFZzS3c6MA#gid=0

    OK, just added to the link. I was not aware of you tracking there. Thanks.

    Well, it took me a week and a half to get up and workout before work but I finally did it! Now, if I can get in my day 2 for week 2 tomorrow, I'll be on the right track. I have to do that tomorrow if I want to get a work out in at all anyway.

    You did it @jennymaree05! It's difficult at first but you feel so great for the rest of the day.

    I had good intentions. I set my alarm for 6:15am last night. Then at 3:00am, I awoke. And then I stayed that way untill 5am at which time I decided to get the extra hour of sleep since I have a 12 hour work day today. Rats.

    YAY for getting in that workout - we all still have time so no worries! I got my 1st workout in this morning. It was soooo hard. I actually woke up an hr later than I wanted to so had to limit to a 20 min workout. Ah well - hope to get it in tomorrow and/or Saturday.

    @CricketKate - I had my clock set to 5am but it didn't happen - so 6am it was!

    HAPPY MORNING CALORIE BURN!

    I am so glad I took this challenge and started working out in the a.m. - I love it! Also, I logged my workouts for the week ahead of time so that way I felt "committed" to them.

    @dino1147 - now that's a good idea! I need to hold myself accountable - can't believe we are nearing end the 2nd week! Time is flying.

    I forgot to check in this morning. I got up at 5 but was too disgruntled to workout until 5:30. But at 5:30, I put on my running shoes and went to work. Shred L1 and L2 and 27 minutes stepper.:happy:

    Have a great weekend everyone! Will I be up tomorrow? Who knows!:huh:
