edited January 11 in Fitness and Exercise
Ok I havent found any challenges to join so I decided to make my own. Feel free to join me but I am not tracking anyone but my self. By all means post ur updates once a week if you like. Just think of it as a little extra goal or use this for support. I have never set up a challenge before so Im not sure all the steps or what to say. I just figured some of you may like to join me on my journey. And God knows, if i can do it, so can you. I am 26 and weigh 326 (at my last weigh in) So here it is-

For the month of February I am challenging myself to do 8 hours of exercise.

Thats 2 hours per week. So I will check in different times thru the weeks to share how much time I have completed out of the 480 mins. I will start Feb 1st. Lets see what kinda difference this makes by Spring Break. I am personally hoping that in the month of Feb i will lose 10 lbs. Get ready.......Set..........

    You are doing so great!! You will make you goal for this month no problem! Have you set a goal for next month yet?

    I love the Leslie Sansone Walk at Home DVD's. They can really get your heart rate up if you want it too.
