    I'm in! I'm sketching out my work out schedule now. I'm a bit nervous since this is my first challenge but I know that this challenge will give me the boost I need for my journey to a healthier me!

    I have a question about the HRM. Do you wear it all day? Or just while exercising? I want to try that challenge, since I have one, in addition to the 350 minutes a week.

    @ Wonder_Vegan You can wear the HRM all day, if that is something that you want to do on your own. But, for the purpose of our challenge you will just use the calories burned, per your HRM, during exercise. I will be doing both, as well. Both minutes and calories because I need to push myself even further.

    @ jsteras, I will! It will be Monday morning and there will be a new one every Monday. The topic will be "6 week PUSH YOURSELF challenge - week 1" then week 2, week 3, etc. That was it won't be just one post getting bigger and bigger and bigger. You can easily find something that you responded to, as well, by clicking on the "community" tab, then just about middle screen you will see "home" "recent posts" "my topics" "signature" "search." Click on my topics and it will show you everything that you have posted or responded to that way you don't have to search through a bunch of topics to find what you are looking for.

    Alright everyone! Are you ready? We start our six week challenge tomorrow! I will do a post tonight with the final listing of everyone that is going to participate and then tomorrow morning there will be a new post started. I will start a new one every Monday morning. Tomorrows will be "6 week PUSH YOURSELF challenge, week 1"

    Just to see what happens in these next 6 weeks, I weighed this morning, which I haven't done in weeks because the scale and I are at odds. But, I weighed and took all of my measurements. Measurements being something that I have never done. Anyway, I wrote them all down on a piece of paper and have put the paper away in my desk drawer. I will not do any of it again until May 15th, our final day.

    Okay, off to workout and get on with this day. I will post that final listing tonight. Make it a good day everyone and get ready for tomorrow.

    Count me in as well..... I think the water will be my biggest challenge-I know I don't get anywhere close to 8 glasses a day. I have been struggling lately so this comes at a great time! Thanks for setting this up!
