    Chart every month is good. Are we still weighing in every week though?

    Yes, please weigh in every week. We will keep weighing in every saturday or Friday if you can't make Sat. Because we do have a lot of people and so that we can notice when you lose, I think it would be a good idea to say what you weigh, how much you lost, and how many pounds left of the 50 lb challenge do you have to go.

    I burned 1000 calories at the gym last night! sat was 600. So I have 1900 left to go. I believe I can do it. Tonight I will be on my stair machine as I watch Jersey Shore and I will not get off that thing until i have a serious burn in. Then my left over calories i will burn at a last chance workout tomorrow day and night. Thank you everyone for participating. I am proud of all of you.
