    My goal was 1200 calories. I made it to 924 with a really good workout today. Makes me realize what I am capable of. I also want to thank you for this challenge, because, if it wasn't for all of you checking in with such great burns, whether you reached your target or not, I wouln't have gone today.

    WoW! As I'm reading many pages this morning I can see that most of you did great this week!!! Congrats!

    Sorry for not being around much but I had a crazy week... One of my old ''volunteering friend'' past away last week... She was such a great lady...:cry: One of my best friend's dad past away also...:sad: I always called him DAD since I was a kid... because my dad past away when I was young... :cry: He also was one of my volunteering buddy...

    Been busy volunteering all week... We had a big fishing derby this weekend... two days on my feet running around....I'm also on the church committee for funeral so I was really busy and still am...

    I know I did burn the 3500 calorie but I wasn't good with the way I was eating ... I needed comfort food....

    It's ''Dad''s funeral this morning... I'm not looking forward to this... I have to stay strong for my friend...:sad: It's like going back in time...:cry: Will be back late tonight or in the morning...

    Have a great day everyone!

    I am up .6 this morning. I have a feeling I am not getting enough calories. I am going to cut back on some of the workouts and keep my calories where they are and see if that helps. TOM is on it's way too, that maybe most of it. I just know I was down and then went right back up.

    Feeling a little frustrated with it all, but I am going to keep trying. I have managed to loose 30 lbs this last year. I just can't seem to get out of the 150's and stay out..

    My "Burn Baby Burn" challenge was set to 2,000 calories but I only did 1,219 calories. I found out that I need to go back to the "30 day shred" and maybe even a little more dancing on the Wii.

    This group really helps me try to push myself! :smile:

    My goal was 2000 cals... I slacked off big time during the week. If it hadn't been for that huge house cleaning effort I did this weekend with moving furniture, cleaning closets, dusting, etc. I wouldn't have made it... but I did!

    Definitely made me more aware of how much I am cheating myself and missing opportunities to burn. I'm going to shoot higher this week. Thanks for the challenge!

    I set my goal at 2000 cals, and burned 3000 cals this week! :happy: Very excited! I've been mainly walking, hiking, dancing, and doing C25K. The weather has been so beautiful out that I can't seem to get back into my workout DVD frame of mind.

    Great job, everyone! :smile:

    My goal was 3000 calories. TOM came into town and since I have PCOS, it knocked me on my rear. I had the worst cramps and felt awful, so I only burned 1,612. BUT I lost 2 lbs., so I'll call it a victory anyway :)

    My goal for this week's Burn Baby Burn Challenge was 2000 calories. I Burned 2366 calories doing JM 30 Day Shred, Turbo Fire, and walking. I only worked out 3 times this week and burned that much. I am so pushing for 4-5 times a week from now on!!
