in Motivation and Support
Is anyone interested in this??

I started at the beginning of April but lost track because I got sick several times in a row and couldn't find the motivation to do so, but I really want to do it and complete it!

Who's with me!

We can post our stats here as well, or not, but you need to calculate your inches before so you know how well you did.
I'm not going to hide my stats! I want something to hold me accountable! LOL

Anyone want to join????? Until then, I'll keep dancing with my wii (which burns MAD CALORIES btw)

    I've been way sick, I've been lacking the motivation to restart for this month, so I've been walking and dancing for my exercise.
    I lack motivation, and I have a lot of procrastination skills going toward it. ha ha

    There's also a group here if you need questions answering. A bunch of us started 8 days ago. We are 2 days away from completing Level 1 :drinker:

    I've already started the 30DS and love it - just a quick question - you have put that dancing on the wii burns mad calaries - do you use a HRM to know that or do you put it in as something on here? I ask because I regularly do just dance on my wii and never know how to put the calories down! thanks!

    I've been searching for a way to do it, and actually came up with the formula, the sweat points are not equal to a calorie. It's really neat.
    For every 4.2 sweat points is a calorie burned.

    For example, if you get 300 sweat points during a song, you've just burned 71 calories. And that's also if you are actually doing the moves and getting into it, because the wii is creepy and knows if you are actually doing stuff... haha

    ETA: I found the formula here, MFP through google. Because I was convinced I was burning more than just regular dancing.

    We can keep it here, or I can make a group on facebook and make it open, until May, and I'll post a link, and we'll check in every day.
    Sooo, vote, Keep it here, or have a group?

    I am on day 4 of the 30 day shred. Have just started it again after having a baby. I'm so unfit compared to this time last year. Its a good short workout though as I haven't got the time to go to the gym anymore. Just doing the shred and trying to walk everywhere.

    I read on another thread to input it as 20 minutes of circuit training, it tends to be very close to what the calories burned are...

    Thank you. I am having the worst time figuring out how to log exercises. It seems the only thing I can find is tae bo, walking, and running. I did manage to find circuit training under cardio. I need a how to manual. LOL

    A group on here would be best for me, rather than on FB. But willing to go with the flow.
