    Ok, about 700 cals burned so far today....I did a 20 min walk with Leslie Sansone earlier and just finished another 30 min walk with Leslie. If I'm feeling froggy later I may box my son on the Wii again LOL! If I get my 1000 cals in today then maybe I can double it to 2000 by repeating my exercises tomorrow. Boy would I feel accomplished then!!

    I thought about aiming for 1000 each day too, but got part way through 30DS and felt really ill so had to abort (I went back and started it again a few hours later). Decided I had pushed myself enough (i did 1200+ cals yesterday) and my body needs to recover.

    So give it a go and do as much as you can, but don't push past your limits :)

    Everyone has done brilliantly today well done!

    It is Sunday, people dont forget to burn remaining calories to complete the challenge. I am sure most of us will reach the goal and few of us will reach double the target. Thats an inspiration for us!

    I've got 263 cals left to burn to make target, but feeling very under motivated today. Gotta get on and do it though, can't fall at the first hurdle

    Yup thats why I posted the reminder because it is not easy to burn the calories on a Sunday. Come on everyone do that, me too!! Watching a cricket match since morning, I have to get up as soon as it finishes. I have to burn nearly 400 cals today atleast. More is better.

    Great!
    I burned over 600 yesterday with a four mile run and then an hour long yoga class!
    Today is a 6 mile run and then a fitness test so I've got this in the bag. :)

    Good thing, too, I am still thinking about those bacon pancakes...:love:

    Walking to my allotment with a rucksac with eight bricks in it for my pond, walking my dog. Calories? Who knows!

    Vinyasa Yoga 75 mins around 400 calories - that's my 1000 calorie goal achieved. Thanks for the challenge!

    Just finished my remaining calories; I burned 624 today, and 588 yesterday so I did it! I can't believe I burned more today than yesterday. I was feeling soooo lazy today I had to force myself to workout.

    I hit my 1,000 weekend calorie mark today. It was a bit of a struggle because I have knee pain that developed Saturday morning in both knees. I don't think my body is used to all this running/walking. So I'm going to have to take the early part (or all) of next week off from running/jogging/walking. Will have to hit my targets based on food alone.

    Seeing how you can't get into groups on the mobile version, I did not see this challenge until 3pm today. I would like to thank you for the challenge. While I did not meet the challenge, I got motivation from it and burned 761 calories today!!

    Great effort by everyone. I think all of us who accepted the challenge have completed it successfully. Thats really great. I will post the same challenge next week. I dont think we need to go higher than this as yet. May be after a couple of weeks:wink:
