    I already decided yesterday that I was doing this, so I'm in.

    But, not everyday. You need your body to rest. For me, it will be 4 days a week running in the morning, 3 days a week weight training in the evening. The workouts will be staggered, some days will be a double, and others not. It will work out to having one rest day a week, Sunday Funday. This works best with my busy schedule. But, almost the same thing as what you are talking about. I start tonight.

    I wish I could work out at our Gym during lunch.

    I seriously don't know how people work out during their lunch. I go for SLOW walks during my lunch break...but actually working out I could never do, I sweat SO SO bad!

    I'm in! I'm working on the Couch to 5K program, and doing Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred. Even though 30DS will end (maybe) in April, I have plenty of other stuff to keep me moving. Including my 2 favorite mooches (my friends' dogs).

    I was actually going to start the C25K program and the shred (again, lol) on April 1. Between those two I should be able to get two workouts a day!!

    I do C25K too, I'll probably start the program over and do that the whole month of April in the mornings. I just can't get myself to do 30DS everyday even though people have had amazing results with it!

    Just the challenge I needed for the start of Week 3. My first 2 weeks I focused on making smarter food choices and tracking calories faithfully. That was easy. For whatever reason I didn't want to calorie track and exercise from Day 1 because I didn't want to overwhelm myself until I knew I had my eating under control. This is not a diet, but a lifestyle change. But confident now that I can realistically do both without it feeling like a burden. With that said....I AM IN!!! It is 70 degrees here and a beautiful day to walk/jog.

    Is there a plan to do a daily/weekly check-in until May 1st and post our stats? That would be fun knowing everyone's success - bc we all will be successful. I am starting my challenge at 224 (ugggh I said it out loud!!). Heres to a new number on my next
    weigh-in April 2nd. My goal for May 1st is to be below 215.

    sounds good to me. Mon/Wed/Fri I go to a personal trainer, so Tues/Thurs and weekends I'll walk with my kids and my dog or do some cardio at home. Stationary bike at night :)

    We have showers. But, I work in a very conservative and professional environment and I have tattoos all over my body. No way I can use the gym. It's almost a tragedy because it's free. I've been trying to figure out a way to make it work. Like, getting dressed in a stall, wearing long sleeve dri fit shirts, then getting undressed and dressed in the shower when done. i don't know. It's a free gym though. Seems like a shame. too bad society sucks.
