    Real quick

    1) The goal is 35 flights of Stairs (Approx. 1050 steps total) for the entire week. If you would like do it every day that is GREAT!
    2) If you prefer, feel free to log it as Steps instead of Flights
    3) F/V= Fruits and Veggies
    4) I did the Stair Master today and I counted 15 steps per floor. Therefore, for this challenge 2 floors = 1 flight on the Stair Master
    5) I probably wont have much time on the computer over the next couple of days. So, if you have a question for me, inbox me. I'll get back to you as soon as I can

    Hope that answered some of your questions.

    Keep up the good work everyone!


    ok... I did the stairmaster...since it is 2 floors for 1 flight of stairs... it's not 96 for me... it's 48 for me. :wink: I only did ONE serving of veggie's... I will do better tomorrow with that.

    Yeah!!! A non-weight challenge, just my type. Otherwise I restrict, restrict, restrict then BINGE... UGH

    I'm counting the flights of stairs I climb at work or take at the subway. Guess this means I need to stop taking the escalator. ;-)

    I gotta share the dream I had about climbing the stairs in my apartment... Well, that's really all there is to it. This challenge is haunting my dreams! I dreamt I went to the bottom, then climbed to the top with ease. Then I lost count of the steps. :laugh:

    Just got back from the stairs, and I must say, I never thought it would be so bright at the top floor of my building! Wow! And a great view. I only counted the steps going up, but I was going up and down those stairs! 15 mins total, and 185 calories burned. SWEET! :bigsmile: Now my legs are shaky and I still have to do the Shred!! :noway:

    I guess your dream came true! Great Burn!

    According to mypyramid.gov, beans are a veggie. I didnt know this, I guess we learn something new everyday

    With the calculations at the start of the challenge, I realize that I have to go up and down the stairs 10 times to equal 5 flights. I definitely did that today while doing laundry. Does that count? It wasn't "formal" like me doing it consistently. I don't want to "cheat" if that's not what you meant and doing laundry doesn't count as walking flights of stairs. I think I should considering its harder because I'm carrying a basket of loads. Anyway, just let me know if its breaking the rules or not. If it is, I'll change it back to 0.
