I will be on vacation until September 11 so I'm sure that I can get lots of exercise in. I'm not sure if there will be a scale where I am so I may have to miss the first weigh in!0

Doing light cleaning yesterday and today I've burned 791 calories. 4209 left to go!
(P.S. Looks like I still have internet...weird. So I might have it through the beginning of next week when they come get their equipment, and then I get new internet on Wednesday)0 -
Checking in
1. I'm set up to lose .5 lb per week so it's feasible to lose 3 lbs. by Thanksgiving. Doable is another story!
2. I know I won't come near 5000 calories this week. Between Labor Day and a "thing" I'm having at my house on Wednesday, I won't be getting in any double spin classes. I will be doing tons of yardwork and cleaning over the next 4 days in addition to a shortened workout but probably won't be logging those. I'm actually trying not to eat back as many of my exercise calories as I have been so if I don't log all this extra work I won't be tempted to eat them! I think I've been messing up in my measuring and while I was losing my weight I always left a couple hundred as a cushion and I've not been doing that. So, short story long, I burned 687 calories (or so) at the gym this morning and I'm heading out to clean the pool and do yard work now!
Good luck everybody!0 -

This may sound silly, but when I went to my parents house for 3 weeks in June I took my scale with me! I packed it in the front of my luggage. haha0 -

lol...so really you will probably burn over 5000 calories this week, but aren't going to log them! It's fine!! I don't blame you for not logging if you are tempted to over eat!! :0) Great self reflection. I'm proud of you girl!

Okay, I'm checking in w/ my calorie burn for today and yesterday. You won't see these on my profile because I don't normally count this stuff as exercise, but I will for this challenge. Yesterday and today we were moving from one office to another. I'm not completely sure of the exact time, but I will count 2 hours for yesterday and 2 for today. So my total burn for the week is 1740 per MFP calculations. If I had checked in before I did the moving I would have brought my HRM to work :-P
edit: I've also requested all you on my team0 -
WOOHOO!!! Pink, my favorite color!0

Yes, I am trying! Took a long hot shower this morning and that definitely helped. I'm hoping it just needs to be worked out some and I'll be fine.0 -
Also, I burned 457 yesterday at the gym so I"m over 1100 for the two days. Hmmm, maybe I will hit 5000 just in workouts! Naw. Anyhoo, I've sent friend requests to my Orange teammates. We will totally rock this! Gotta go get ready for Friday night football!!!0
