Go Red! This week's challenge is going to be hard for me as I am limited in exercise due to injury, but I think I can manage at least half the goal! :happy:

Hi, Red team! I'm psyched about this challenge, I've been exercising pretty regularly for a couple of months now, so this is one more thing to get me to that gym!

Hey fellow reds. Stoked about this month. We leave for Disney the middle of Sep & really want the extra 10 pounds gone. I started a tight size 14, & now down to a size 10-12 depending on brand. I bought a double wardrobe of 10's & 8's... larges & mediums. I wanted to make sure I had clothes for our trip & just didn't know what size I would be. This month would help push me into those 8's.

an EXTRA 500 cals??? that's gonna be tough. I already spend an hour workout at 5AM, and come close to 500 cals... not sure I can double without doing double classes. I could, but still need to move for my job (I do in home daycare) Afraid if I doubled up on classes I would be bed bound :yawn:

Good luck reds. feel free to friend me for extra support

I'm doing a 30ds challenge along side this one so will get about 200 cals doing that. Plus when I het a chance I run or go to
The gym, 500 per day should be ok but I usually have 1 rest day do we shall see!

I'm off to cancun on 4th sept and have my birthday on 18th so want to look fab! Do you guys eat back your exercise cals?

Let's go Team Red! This was a perfect month for me to start this challenge as I am going to add a few morning workouts to my regimen.

I am not a morning person at all and my bed time is around midnight but yesterday I was in the sack by 10:45 so I could do cardio this morning.

We are going to kick some tail!

Team Red add me if ya like.

Yes!

I always set my workout ( btw. doing the 30DS as well ;D) two hours after lunch, so I definitely eat something for the evening afterwards !
This Friday is weigh-in ??
Gooo red!

The challenge is an extra 500 calories from exercise total, on top of following your eating plan, not an extra 500 calories on top of any exercise you're already doing. Hope that helps - 1000 calories from exercise would be hard to do every day!

Hello Red Team!!

*phew* I was thinking I'd have to do an ADDITIONAL 500cals/day this week on top of what I was already intending to do...that'd be a massive eek...

So is everyone going to not eat back 500 exercise cals this week? Or just stick to what they normally do...?

I think they just mean a total of 500...not extra.

500 calories? yikes! I'll definitely give it a try

mymagicalinkerytour

Hmm burning 500 calories a day sounds tough, but I'll try! I would love to lose 20lbs by mid-November so I will take all the motivation and suggestions I can get!

I definitely wish you a good start in the 30DS ! Hope you feel great afterwards !

I'm not going to make the 500 exercise calories a day ;D I've already got problems with munching the exercise calories back, how am I going to do it if my exercise calories are even higher? So don't push yourself too far guys !

Thanks for this thread. I need all the support I can get for losing 10 this month. I am refocused and ready - hope I dont' sabatoge myself this month.

Go team Red! I'm so happy to be apart of this challenge. Not only do I feel liable because of food/exercise tracking on here, but now I feel even more liable with having to send our weights in every week. I just turned down a bag of chips because I know friday will be here before I know it! Also happy that there are mini challenges and it will give even more motivation to work out.

Good luck everyone!

I try NOT to eat my exercise cals but I don't know if I should be or not. I have a rough time eating my original calorie goals. smh. I always knew I had bad eating habits but struggling for 1290 calories is crazy. lol. Have fun in Cancun!!

mccrazyma3

How do you log 30DS calories burned? I've yet to figure that out!
