    I had good intentions. I set my alarm for 6:15am last night. Then at 3:00am, I awoke. And then I stayed that way untill 5am at which time I decided to get the extra hour of sleep since I have a 12 hour work day today. Rats.

    YAY for getting in that workout - we all still have time so no worries! I got my 1st workout in this morning. It was soooo hard. I actually woke up an hr later than I wanted to so had to limit to a 20 min workout. Ah well - hope to get it in tomorrow and/or Saturday.

    @CricketKate - I had my clock set to 5am but it didn't happen - so 6am it was!

    HAPPY MORNING CALORIE BURN!

    I am so glad I took this challenge and started working out in the a.m. - I love it! Also, I logged my workouts for the week ahead of time so that way I felt "committed" to them.

    @dino1147 - now that's a good idea! I need to hold myself accountable - can't believe we are nearing end the 2nd week! Time is flying.

    I forgot to check in this morning. I got up at 5 but was too disgruntled to workout until 5:30. But at 5:30, I put on my running shoes and went to work. Shred L1 and L2 and 27 minutes stepper.:happy:

    Have a great weekend everyone! Will I be up tomorrow? Who knows!:huh:

    I woke up at 6 without my alarm. I indulged in a scale induced pity party for a little while, so I had to work out later this morning.:huh: I did do Level 2 of the Shred and 20 minutes on my stepper. I wanted to do more, but my baby was cranky and just wanted to be held.

    Now the scale is DEAD! I took it's batteries, so it can't hurt me anymore. No more pity for me, just good hard work!

    Have a Super Weekend (or what's left of it)!!:happy:

    I always do my workouts in the a.m.
    Can I still join your challenge? It'll give me a group of folks that are out the door (or outta bed, anyway) first thing...

    I jump out of my pjs and throw on my workout gear with my first cup of joe!

    I was up at 5:30 for my workout this morning. I'm glad that I got it done, as I have been going non-stop today with field trips and Dr. visits.

    Is it to late to join? This sounds like a great motivator. If it's to late can I join you in April?

    The more the merrier! We encourage early morning calorie burns - YEAH! We still have a good amount of March left over. Don't forget to include your workouts in the spreadsheet for this week.
