    I just joined MFP five days ago today and every day so far I've done a 25 minute, low-impact Beach Body workout video in the morning. Today, I got a shakeweight in the mail that I'm planning to add to my daily workout. So, I'm on day 5 of my own, personal challenge. :)

    Welcome to the challenge!!

    It sounds like you are off to a GREAT start! good for you!

    MFP friends,

    Loving that more folks have joined in the challenge! Your DAY 1 is when you get started with the renewed commitment to add the exercise piece to your puzzle.

    We can all support each other - and be inspired by our daily check-ins over the period of the challenge!

    Purposeful fitness efforts each day will benefit each and every one of us!

    Cheers!

    That is awesome!! Thanks for sharing that!

    I was someone who exercised regularly.... then sporadically .... then back issues held me back altogether...

    I agree with you and hope I can one day report Day 130!

    Hello MFP land!

    I'm so happy I stumbled across this thread because I just started exercising 3 days ago so I'll fill ya in. First off I'm really out of shape but then that is why I'm here. Secondly I have a number of regular things I discovered I enjoy doing considering how much I HATE exercise.

    Day 1 freestyle dance for 40 mins
    Day 2 20min yoga/ 1hr freestyle dance
    Day 3 ...paying the price for overdoing right off the bat when I know I have a bad knee. Very tired and ouchy today. Squeeked in a 20min/ 1mile :grumble:

    Excellent - glad to welcome you to the challenge!

    slow and steady.... will be better...and I can already see that you see that :smile:

    I have found that my past experiences - when I start out with a big bang - have lead to pain or just disinterest ... and not long term.. so your 20 min today... good move!

    Will be glad to see your progress!

    I fell off the Wagon due to a bout of the flu and need some motivation to get moving again. I know I'm starting late... But hey... Gotta start somewhere!

    Tomorrow will be my day one! And I have a date with my running shoes.

    I will join this, too! This will be my day 2, though ;) I kicked my own butt at the gym on the elliptical. Today I have a personal training session and will probably do another 30min on the elliptical or treadmill. This is a cool challenge and a great way to make small goals for ourselves in this journey of becoming fit and healthy :)
