Like Ammi, I feel I would have made my October goal if I hadn't gotten sick, so I will shoot for that again in November - 1200.

Well ladies I am with you. I am having health issues also. was ordered on bedrest for several days and now undergoing tests and facing some minor surgery so don't think I can set goal for November but will post when I am able. This is why I have been missing in action. Love posting here keeps me accountable and have so missed the exercise. Can't believe I said that. But it is nice having some friends to share with and who are so supportive. So knwo I want to add to the goal!!!

Okay, I've never made a monthly goal. So I know I shouldn't up my goal. But I have a whole week off at Thanksgiving, so I should be able to get in some long walks... and that really sounds relaxing, too. So I'm going to try for 500 minutes. Katy, wanna race?

wyllenn - Well considering I'm in Canada I will throw out a title suggestion since you asked. In Canada we have Rememberance Day (the US Vertern's Day) so it could be "REMEMBER to exercise in November". I'm good with any title though, because no matter what month it is we should be thankful for getting exercise, right?

Well I've passed my goal again this month so I'm upping my goal from 1085 (35 minutes a day in October) to 1200 - a round average of 40 minutes a day for November. But I do have a side goal for my minutes...I want at least 200 of those to be strength training. I will have to buckle down on my food AND exercise journalling to keep an eye and what types of exercise I'm getting. November is a whole new month! I'm starting over!

Alright, after many many months of Heather coaxing people over to this exercise thread, I'm finally here

I'm just starting out with the whole exercise thing, so I'm aiming for 30 minutes a day 4-5 days a week. I'll go ahead and start with a goal of 600 minutes.

I keep going back and forth about whether I should keep my goal 1200 or drop it to 1100. I will make 1200 this month, but there's an extra day in October and everything went just right this month. In fact, yesterday I almost switched it to 1100.

But I'm going to keep it. November IS going to be busy and stressful, but I think I need to learn to exercise despite that... SO... 1200 it is! I will be very proud of myself WHEN I get there.
