I would love to get in on this thread. I just joined 3FC. I've been exercising for about 3 weeks now, but I didn't weight before I started exercising. I weigh in on Thursday mornings.
Anway, last week I was 205 (I'm 5'3 with a large frame, 20 years old). I'm aiming for 750 minutes of exercise this month. Right now, I have 145 minutes down.
Sooo here is my routine that I'm trying to stick to starting tomorrow (Just now thought of the routine... mostly incorporating stuff I've been doing, just more of it)
Mondays - Winsor Pilates 20 Minute Workout (Original, not Circle) Tuesdays - WP 20 Min Workout (Circle) & Calisthenics (50 situps, 25 calf raises, 20 squats, 10 pushups) Wednesdays - WP 20 Min Workout (Original) & Calisthenics Thursdays - Calisthenics & Exercise Bike (at least 15 minutes, but for as long as I can push myself) Fridays - WP 20 Minute Workout (Original) & Calisthenics Saturdays - Calisthenics Sundays - Rest day
My mini-goals are 10lbs. this month, 15lbs. by Jan 1st. Hope I can do it! I know I can if I put my mind to it!

I am trying to find the original Nov Exercise Challenge..
I am trying to find the original Nov Exercise Challenge that I saw on Nov 1st but it seems to have "disappeared". So, here is the first 10 days of this month. If it seems repetitive, I apologize but I can't find my original posting anywhere.
This is my exercise plan and I do not deviate from it. I have been following it since September 15th when I began the WW Flex Pts Plan. Two points: 1) I like to exercise more than I like to diet 2) I want to use all of the 28 exercise pts allowed so I can eat more than my daily target pts.
The past three weeks I have averaged 38 exercise pts per week although "officially" I can only count 28 of those.
Here's what I do:
A) Mon-Friday 20 mins on the treadmill each day 1.8 mph at 1.5 incline
B) Tu-TH-SA upper body free weights 2 sets of 10 reps holding 5 lbs each
C)Mon-Wed-Fri Lower body workouts including leg lifts, hips and ab crunches
(up to 30 reps of each--work out 4 sections for abs)
D) When I can I am trying to add Pilates and a Dance Off dvd to do more lower body work (since I want to really target those areas)
E)Other activity:including painting kitchen and bathroom, housework, preparing meals and grocery shopping (I do assign a half point for each 10 minutes of this since I am not doing it aerobically)
Based on the charts that I have based this activity on, I would be classified Very Active. It averages out to 60-90 minutes of continual activity six days a week with Sundays being my official day of less activity.
I haven't missed a day and I don't plan to! I want to get the maximum out of my workouts and the results are already showing!
I had to go buy a universal remote so that I can use the Slim in 6 DVD - I couldsn't toggle through to the other work outs. Luckily I'm still on the first one for a few more days though. - but it also means that I figured out how to use the universal remote.

It has been a completely lazy Sunday! I haven't eaten the best today... but I suppose it could have been worse. My DD had a Take 5 candy bar in the car as a special treat for the week of being so good and I literally could "taste" the peanut butter and chocolate together!! AHHHH!!! CRAVINGS!!! I moved past it though - right into a plate of steak and potatos! *sigh*
At least I still worked out, right?
