    I'm in again! This is also going to be a difficult week for me with a few late nights as well, but last week gave me such a great push that I'm going to do my best to manage it this week too.

    I just joined MFP today and I think this will be a great way to get started! There is nothing like just jumping in there and doing it. I'm new to this site so I'm unfamiliar with its features. I hope I can figure it out enough to keep updating here each day. Any tips for newcomers to the site? Thanks and I look forward to working with you all this week!

    Im totally in again! I thought burning 3500 was going to be hard for me but this challenge actually motivated me to push harder and further in my work outs! Super surprised that I almost hit 4,000 so that's my goal for this week!

    I recently just found my fitness pal thanks to a friend yesterday and this sounds like a great way to keep each other encouraged as well as progress in our own personal goals and would love to join this challenge. Only one day into this and I am finding it very helpful and motivational. Thanks so much.
