This week's challenge
It seems like the goal times worked really well for everyone last week. I am going to stick with them. Let me know if there are any other changes you would like to see.

(Let me know if you would like other + challenges added in. Is there something you are struggling with where a little extra motivation might help?)
- *New* Pick a personal goal for this week! Let us know what it is and how you did. I'll add a little ★ in front of your name on the leader board if you get it. So it would look like ★Sara Grace+, if I totally rock it next week. :-)
So what are your weekly goals? Are you going to be an Enthusiast, Buff, or Elite?0 -

I'm a buff, I got in 270 this week. Woo hoo. Ohhh, and I drank tons and tons of water. But no suprise there
0 -
I'm very pleased with that and thanks for taking the time to set that up Sara :-). My personal goal this week will be to cycle around Fewston Reservoir this weekend. I've never tried and it will be tough but i think it's something i can do or certainly try to do :-).0
-
Great Sara!
Right now I'm up to at least 75 days at my last notification
I'm going for Buff+ again this week. Again, without lifting time this will be a challenge! So far I have 40 minutes from today.
My personal goal will be to stay under 40% carbs every day. A challenge for sure, since I love chocolate and fruit 0 -
I am going to aim for Elite+ again this week! My personal challenge will be to track honestly everyday this week. I tend to get really off track late at night and on weekends. This week I am keeping tabs on those times!0
-
I may have to go with Buff+ this week since my mom would be offended were I to interrupt her visit with my workout schedule. :ohwell:
I just started tracking sodium and it's pretty ugly - perhaps I will make my goal to stay within my sodium limits 5 out of 7 days . . . is that dumb? If I say the ENTIRE week I fear I will fail - I never realized just how much I was getting everyday.0 -
Since tomorrow starts month of May, I am going to try for Elite for real this time!!! Last week was WEAK! I gotta get up and move it! NO MORE BEING LAZY!0
-
Just got back from the gym. Did a solid hour of cardio tonight and i'll be trying for 4 sessions this week. Will be going for elite plus again this week hopefully :-).0
-
I am aiming for the big daddy again this week and my goal for this week is a deficit of 3500 calories for a 1lb loss this week. I did it two weeks ago but last week I failed so I shall hold my headup and try again:) 0
-
I got another 30 minutes in today. Surprise! My toddler was having no part of waiting patiently for his sister's dance class and wanted to walk around the strip mall instead. So today's total is really 70 minutes 0
-
I hit 105 days logged today (guess I haven't been updating that, sorry!)
Since I hit just under 300 minutes last week I'm going to go nuts and go for the elite this week.
I've also been having big issues with sodium so my goal is to just even come close for most of the week, I rarely ever fall below but I'm usually pretty happy if I stay between the 2500 goal and 3000.0 -
Just finished up 80 minutes of exercise and when I finish my water jug, 14 glasses of water! Ate HORRIBLY today, but this makes me feel A LOT better! Woo hoo!0

I'm at 240 tomorrow!!!!!
And I got in 288 minutes last week, so I guess I'll be in the fitness buff category. 0 -

As of yesterday, after walking the Cleveland Zoo for 3 hrs, I have logged 260 minutes of exercise for the week so far! Woo hoo! My migraine is finally just about gone today, so I will work out tonight, but probably not for a full hr, so it doesn't come raging back!
I have hit my water goal every day this week so far! So, 100 more minutes to go! 0 -
I did a 30 min walk yesterday, and 40 minutes on the bike today at the gym, so I'm at 140 minutes Water galore. I hit 80 days today! 0
-
Just got back from the gym. Added another 60 minutes to my total and good lord i'm feeling it now. Tomorrow night may be a step to far but i'm certainly going to try. This challenge is really helping me focus. Thanks again to Sara for setting it up and best of luck gang 0
-
just got done with 45 minute work out...55 minutes more to make my weekly challenge goal!!! woo hoo!
Angry though because I can't find my damn key card for clubhouse where I work out! grrrrr! Really hoping that the cat hid it from me and I find it! Replacing it will cost me!!! ugh!!!!!0 -

Argh, I am so far behind this week! 103 minutes. *sigh* Need to get on it!0

I decided to suck up the neck pain and at least walk today (you know, so I can have a few glasses of wine tonight
), so I did 40 minutes of hill intervals on the treadmill. So I'm up to 180 minutes Looks like I need to get in almost an hour of exercise this weekend to hit Buff, seems doable! 0 -
I logged in day 45 as of yesterday - water is going well, exercise minutes . . . meh. Definitely feeling "off" this week. Just can't get in the right mind-set. Pre-occupied with happenings of the next few days . . . I should be somewhere around 180 after tonight - depending on how long my "as many reps as possible" take.
Then I'll have to hit the trails hard again this weekend to make up for eating out way too much.:frown: 0 -
just got home from a 65 minute work out, which brings me to 370 minutes for the week!!! Woo HOO!!! I made my water goal every day this week except for Thursday :drinker:
Will not be working out tomorrow b/c I will be working 12 hrs... Will be working out Sunday, hopefully at least another hr! 0 -

I'm shooting for Fitness Elites (Advanced). I missed it by 1 min last week even thought I didn't check in. Time to burn some calories and clock some mins!!:drinker:0
