    Thanks!! I had to really push myself to go this hard. I usually burn between 500 - 650, but I gained 3lbs since last week, so this challenge was just what I needed to get back into gear. I'm hoping for a big loss this week, so wish me luck! And it wasn't so bad...I just kept going, and did the things I actually liked. I'm sure you could do it if you try.

    I went back and reviewed my previous weeks and most of the time I burn between 1500-2000 cals a week. I don't want to give my body too much of a shock since I have a vascular tumor in my leg and I am not suppose to OVER exercise. 3000 sounds like a good starting place for this week.

    I had to redo my calories because I had added calories burned at work, which some people commented that I should do that, so I took them off. These are all workout calories.
