    This challenge is awesome motivation! I am moving more now than I have in weeks! And I might just be able to reach 3500 in 6 days after all. We shall see.

    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: 644 (swift walking for about an hour--most of the cals, followed by about an hour or so of shopping)
    Wednesday: 854 (95 minutes of brisk walking)
    Thursday:
    Friday:
    Saturday:
    Sunday:
