  • Is it too late to join? I've been doing really good on the eating, but tend to slack off on the exercise. I try to walk 2-3 times a week for an hour, but it would help me alot to be accountable to someone else! How does this work? When do you post?

    I did do quite a bit of cleaning today too. It was more than I first thought because I rememberd I had to clean puke all morning. I'll just say I failed this week. I tried, but it was a long, tiring week. I'm hoping this coming week is much easier to sleep and workout.

    Not too late to join. We are starting a new week. Mon - Sun, just post your minutes of working out, moving. Just look back at a couple of the lasts posts and you'll see about what people are doing. Its super easy, and seeing it in black and white helps with accountability and motivation. For me, just have a number to work towards helps get me moving.

    Mon - 60 mins zumba, 27 mins shred.

    Well on my way to a great week. I don't see a problem getting to 360 this week since I am doing a relay for life on Saturday and can walk as much as I want for 24 hours.

    Hey Kim and my fitness pals!!!! I'm aiming to get into a size 7 wedding dress by December. Have about 50 lbs to go. Although that is cutting it close I hope to do my best to get as close as I can. My biggest downfall is when I have an argument with my fiancee I eat and I have been really controlling it lately and am confident that I am finally on the right path. Now when I have an issue I've headed to the gym. Talk about turning it around right??!! LOL I had to join this thread, it's definitely motivating watching everyone track there 360 weekly minute challenge and thats where I need motivation the most!!!

    Monday - 60 minute Spin
    Tuesday - 45 minute weights and cardio on intervals
    Wednesday - Still trying to figure out what I want to do tonight.....hopefully add this portion shortly:-)

    255 minutes to go

    Wednesday - Ok, I just walked for almost an hour but it was interrupted a bit because I took my dog and he couldn't handle the long walk in the heat so I stopped for him for about 10 minutes so that he could drink some water, I wet him down so he could cool off and then waited until he seemed okay to walk back. He's worth it, I love him!!! So I'm posting this as 45 minutes, it was 230 calorie burn with my heart/calorie monitor.

    New total 210 minutes to go!!!! Thank God it's only Wednesday!!! Good luck everyone!!!!!
