CamiToo! Glad you joined us on this thread also! I hear you on the elliptical! I got one just a few days ago and I'm only up to 10 minutes, just a'huffin' and a'puffin' with thighs burning! Anyway, good luck!

Cake, I got the rest of your goals on there! Thanks!

Gekster, Lewis, Delphi, Almostskinny, and CMof4, great job!! I'm with Ms_P, I'll be doing it, but just a bit later!

[Jacqui_D]

Ladies, here is a partial list of last month's participants and goals, showing those who met their goals (and reported that they met their goals), which I turned red and marked as MET!! Of course, EVERYONE who participated in the exercise challenge had success because they all got out there and worked toward their goals! Meeting their goals was the icing on the cake for all their hard work, and getting their goals marked as met was the red cherry on top!! So this month, ladies, let's all go for the red!!! Woohoo!!
