I've been setting 600 minute goals for several months now and have not made it yet. I am going to be kinder to myself this month and lower my goal to 450. I am having a hard time staying in the swing of dieting and exercise and I don't want to set myself up for failure (again).

Thanks, as always, to Wyllen for coordinating the exericise thread.

I'm in for 930 minutes.

Well, I can start the ball rolling with my Sept 1st exercise. Today I did 40 mins on the treadmill and 20 mins walking to/from school.

Personal Goal... 1200 - 60 = 1140

Group Total... 60 mins (that was an easy one)

I hope you all finish the week, and start September, smiling and active.

Take care,

Zelma

my goal for this month is 1200 min. i met my august goal and went over by 922 min. so i know i can meet 1200. good luck to everyone!!

Way to go, Zelma! LOL you always get the first minutes because it is "today" there long before it is here. Glad we got a start... we are OFF! Go TEAM

I'm new and in for 900 minutes.

Am I suppose to post here? Starting us off with 70 minutes for the month of September. Wyellen hopefully you can set me straight if this isn't right. Way to go for September!

luflic -- are you saying you did 70 minutes today? Then we need to add it to the total Zelma started.

I have 40 min to add to today as well (walking in Chicago)


Group total ~ 60 + 70 (luflic) + 40 (wyllenn) = 170 minutes!

I'm posting this separately. The August thread has been closed. Our total was 26,519. I was out of town last night, and didnt get a chance to add an additional 39 minutes (walking in Chicago!).

If anyone else has Aug min to add, let me know, but don' t add it to the Sept minutes! Our new aug total is 26,519 + 39 = 26,558 -- 10,000 minutes over our previous high total!

Again, let me know if you have aug minutes, but try not to confuse sept and aug minutes!

I am not sure how to really do this. I would like to set a modest goal of 600 minutes for myself. Do I report daily or weekly totals to this board. I so need this extra push for the month of September

Hi guys put me in at 45 mins today....alot of walking at work It never stops ha-ha!!
Group total ~ 60 + 70 (luflic) + 40 (wyllenn) = 170 minutes
group total 170 + 45 (Zig) = 215

Hope i did this right

I started september off okay- 33 minutes on elliptical machine.

Group total 215 + 33 = 248

First off -- The August thread is back open again (thanks, thinthinker!), so if you have more aug minutes, post there!!

Kenya -- You can update whenever you like. Sometimes we like to rush over and post after the exercise, other times we save it up and post all at once. Welcome!

Ziggy -- You did great. In fact, you made it harder than you needed to. Just the second line was fine... in fact, you didn't need your name -- I just put it there in my post because I was adding for 2 people. If you look at the post below you, kimpossible got it!

1 hour aerobic class in the morning and 1 hour in the evening.

group total 248+120=368

Count me in for 900 minutes. (I hope I don't procrastinate and have to do it all in one day!)
