    I think the burns are just to see who gets a "Free pass" for this week. Otherwise its all business as usual. (at least that's how I understood it)

    Totally....I miss my burns from when I was 270. I could burn like 800 calories in a 1 hour speed walk... now its closer to 300-400.

    i personally think that this week's challenge should be how many hours you exercise, not how many calories you burn. because everyone in this challenge is at a different weight, which means that they burn different amounts of calories. so two people could do the same exercise at the same intensity for the same amount of time, but one person could burn 500 calories more than the other person, which i think is just not fair.

    is anyone with me on this?

    Amount of time working out does sound like a fair challenge.

    I think that is a great idea for a weeks challenge. She tried to make it as fair as possible by going by MFP numbers instead of HRMs, but the way I look at it is: the point of this challenge isn't to see who is better or who will win, to me the point is getting out there and pushing yourself further than you ever thought possible and picking up some cool people to support you along the way:)
