Default Let's Defy in July and Kick our Fat BYE BYE Exercise Thread

In honor of what Heather started:

Welcome to the July exercise thread! We're making exercise a habit, giving ourselves some accountability, and getting healthier in the process!

In this thread, we track the number of MINUTES we exercise for the month -- whether it's walking or swimming or sweaty housework! Most of us set goals for ourselves. If you are a goal-setter, early in the month set your own goal! If you're just getting started, feel free to start with a smaller number of minutes, maybe just a few hundred. It seems easier for many of us to build on the habit rather than meet a very high goal right away. However, you can also just jump right in without a goal, and you can join us anytime in the month!

We have done so great...so far this year we are at 8,502 minutes

I really want to push us for July, I know we can make this!

Goal for July is 4100 Minutes!!


We invite you to join us!

To keep track, just add your minutes to the existing group’s minutes. If you’re new, look at what other people are doing – it’s pretty easy to figure out! To help everyone keep things straight, please note the OLD minutes and the number of NEW minutes you are adding, such as
Group total ~ 500 + 50 = 550 minutes.

Don't be scared or feel overwhelmed...we can do this!! Keep walking, keep working, keep going!! We are all getting stronger!!

I have had so much going on the last week I haven't gotten a workout in. I have to do better. I will contribute. I am 20 lbs from my next goal of 250. Workouts play a HUGE part in my weight loss.
