    This is a great way to stay on track! I have been terrible at doing my exercises, and have basically done absolutely nothing today. I am going to begin the challenge tomorrow, if that is okay--so my aim will be 3000 this week, but next week I'll go for the full 3500. Hope that is okay! :)


    Weekly goal= 3000 (just for this week: 500 cals x 6 days)
    Monday: nothing (didn't know about the challenge...and had a lazy/rainy day!)
    Tuesday:
    Wednesday:
    Thursday:
