    Well, this week we didn't hear from Meggie_Pooh and it's now after midnight here. So, it's Tuesday. So, sadly, Meggie will have to be our eliminated player this week.

    I think we weighed in on Sunday, so you can count from Sunday to Sunday if you want to. Good challenge, Kim.

    Anyone who completes this challenge has "immunity" this week. :-)

    30 minutes on the elliptical on Sunday and Tuesday. I'm on my way out there again. Ate like a Miss Piggy today so I'm WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY over my calories. Gotta get that in check. This will make 90 minutes on the elliptical total this week. BTW, MFP counts gardening as cardio, should we count it toward our goal this week? I have a TON of weeds to pull also and it's hotter than blue blazes outside so I'll definitely work up a sweat.

    Does it have to be 30 minutes a day?

    Here's what I've done so far:

    Monday, 45 mins, Beatbox, 500 cals
    Tuesday, 45 mins, Spinning, 500 cals
    Wednesday, 45 mins, Spinning, 430 cals

    At the moment my weight is bouncing around between 172.2 and 173.8 - grrr!!! No loss for about a week now, but it was my annual birthday work do so I'm suprised I'm not 20 stone after that to be honest!!!

    Hope everyone is doing well today.

    Thanks. I will definitely be getting myself back on track with the calories today. I ate like I used to and felt yucky and sluggish, had heartburn, water retention from too much sodium...my body can't handle pizza and beer any more. It's like, "OH LADY, PLEASE FEED ME SOME VEGETABLES!" So, that's what I need to eat today.

    Tea, (short for ilovedrinkingtea), did you say it was your birthday? If so, happy b-day! To answer your question, I think it's cumulative minutes, not specifically 30 per day. And, hang in there through that plateau on your weight....as Dori says, "Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming."

    Christie, jayme, throttlboy, what's up with you guys this week? How are things going?
