    Weekly Goal: 3500
    Mon: scheduled rest day (how they were burned)
    Tues: 500 (3 mile walk with weights plus 5 minute exercise breaks at work while others were smoking!)
    Wed: 455 calories burned (Leslie with weights for 33 plus 15 minutes of additional weight training)
    Thur:500calories burned (how they were burned)
    Fri: calories burned (how they were burned)

    Welcome everyone to the 3500+ calories burned challenge.
    Can you believe this weekly challenge has been going on for over a year now?

    This is a weekly challenge to meet 3500+ calories burned, it is open to everyone. You set your own calorie goal for the week. Each day post the calories you burned, current total and how many you have to go. That's it, not too hard, other then push push pushing yourself to hit your goal. Everyone is such an inspiration on this challenge. Keep up the good work for the people returning and welcome to the newbies.

    Here is the daily update format.

    Weekly Goal:
    Mon: calories burned (how they were burned)
    Tues: calories burned (how they were burned)
    Wed: calories burned (how they were burned)
    Thur:calories burned (how they were burned)
    Fri: calories burned (how they were burned)
    Sat:calories burned (how they were burned)
    Sun:calories burned (how they were burned)

    FYI You can only edit your post for about an hour after you post it. You can either copy and paste into a reply or quote your last post to update

    Also please do not promote other similar challenges in this one. I didn't put this challenge in the groups so it is easy to find for new people as this is not a closed challenge and open to everyone. It would be hard to find in the groups and a lot of newbies would miss it.


    i am in next week starting Monday

    *I bought a heart rate monitor and found that my workouts were overestimated even though I reduced the calorie burn est by mfp which I thought was too high. Not enough time to make up for the shortfall but I was over 3500 for the week.

    I'd like to join the challenge for next week, but it seems I NEVER burn as many calories as most of you wonderful hard working individuals, so I will have a modest goal (at least for my first week joining the challenge). Good luck to those in the challenge this week. :happy: :drinker:
