Yes, 35 days til Christmas, I know I’m not going to lose 30 lbs in 35 days, but I sure as hell want to see a difference!

So start weight:

Holy crap 152lbs!

So yeah, lets see how much I can do in 35 days, HEALTHILY!!

Anyone want to join me?

I'll set some small challenges throughout, maybe in 5 day blocks and such.

    Okay, so the first Mini Challenge I am setting myself and others:

    5 Days: Burn 1000 calories a day.



    This can be however you like, walking, running, cleaning, whatever you like, i just want to see everyone burning 1000 calories.

    I'm not going to be eating these back, but anyone who feels they should can.

    today was "fun" loosing the calories because I was walking around what seems ALL AFTERNOON helping and participating with the Santa Clause Parade! Tomorrow will be a challenge to loose 1000 cals though cause I spend most of my morning at church and have committed to spending time with a friend in the afternoon! Will have to find some time to workout!

    only managed 832 cals on day 1 but I'm sure my zumba routines burn more than the dance I enter on the charts. I know it will be tough to reach the 1000 but have already done 68 mins walking this morning and half of it is up and down on rough woodland paths

    Why not, I'm in. I weigh 242.7lbs. I try and burn as many calories as I can during the day and although I may not log more than 600-800 I will be doing my 1000. I will be more active with my 4 children between now and Christmas!
