    I sometimes work out 2x in a day and burn 700...does that count if it's two workouts, one day?

    Sure. Just make it 700 for the day.

    I did the same thing... 2x workouts to equal the 700. I think I would fall over if I tried to do it all at once. :noway:

    Ok I'll admit, I've only met the goal for this challenge once this week. I've been working out, but just haven't had the time to "give it my all." I'm planning on reaching the goal of 700 calories again today. So far 221 down...

    Well it's Sunday so I'll check in how I did on the challenge!

    Monday: 467
    Tuesday: 252
    Wednesday: 724
    Thursday: 241
    Friday: 0
    Saturday: 0
    Sunday: 715

    So I made the workout 5 days part (= But only 2 of them were 700. WOW is it hard to burn 700 calories in 1 day! Looking forward to seeing how everyone else did this week.

    I started strong...but didn't come through the challenge in the end.

    Monday - 728
    Tuesday - 852
    Wednesday - 784
    Thursday - 0
    Friday - 275
    Saturday - 740
    Sunday - 0

    In order to get to 700 calories, I had to workout 2 times a day. During the week I went to the gym on my lunch hour and then went to the gym or did a workout at home after work. It is tough burning 700 calories. By Wednesday, my muscles were soooo sore!!!
