100 Days of Exercise Challenge
 

Earlier this week alizarin posted that she met her goal of exercising for 100 days in a row! I was so thoroughly impressed with her accomplishment (mostly because I can't seem to string together more than 3-days in a row of exercise) that I wanted to challenge myself.

Maybe some of us will meet our 100-days of exercise on September 8 (100 days from today), and maybe it will take some of us until next June 1 to reach 100 days of exercise... The point is to support each other as we challenge ourselves to exercise!

Let me include myself in the challenge with a small story. Yesterday I went and got fitted for a Bridesmaids dress for a wedding I am in this September. I had originally wanted to fit into a size 16, but ended up fitting into a 18w. Slight bummer, but down from a 24w. On my way home I was thinking "tomorrow is June 1st, stop making excuses and move your A$$." So. I am. Plus, I am participating in the July 4th challenge and you, SuperHeroTeacher have been kicking mayja butt's... Super Hero is right.

You are so sweet smashlers I'm glad you've joined the challenge. I do awesome in all the weight loss challenges (thank you Medifast), but I aways seem to fall off the wagon on the monthly exercise challenges. Something about alizarin's accomplishment really struck a chord with me, and made me want to Just Do It!.

Thanks for joining zoesmom!!! :hug:

Congrats on your accomplishment newleaf! 250 days! WOW! Good luck, please visit us here and let us know how that's going!

Yay! I'm so glad you joined the challenge Dreamer 2012 and PinkHurricane!

Day 2: 25 minutes brisk walk, 10 minutes jog, 12 minutes abs, 286 calories burned

:hug: THANKS SHT for starting this...seriously. I like having somewhere that I can go and say, "SEE! SEE WHAT I DID! I ROCK!" :D

Well...that was quick. No exercise today....feeling very gross...very....well...I may be hugging my toilet soon. My stomach is just...not right. Pick up again tomorrow...hopefully.

Just cheering everyone on :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

You're doing great. If I could do it, you can as well :)

I'm in superteach! ;) This is a great idea.
Day 1-June 3rd-Bike ride-60 minutes

I hope you're feeling better zoesmom! Getting sick (and how it would impact my weight loss) is one of my many anxieties!

Thanks alizarin!!!

Welcome Lecomtes!

Well I'm 3-for-3 so far! I didn't get home until 8:30 tonight, but I still made myself exercise! That so would not have happened before this challenge!

Zoesmom I was just starting to run in the early Spring, then I got sick.... Its hard to do much when you can't breath. Get better doll.

SuperHeroTeacher What is L. Sansone?

I'm in! I'm also new here and have been looking for some motivating shared experience type things (long way of saying "challenge").

This one is especially good for me since one of my stumbling blocks is blowing off exercising when my schedule gets busy and when I'm traveling. But I'm going to count it as a win if this motivates me to get in even 10 minutes of concentrated exercise on those days.

I have to back track here a bit since I'm four days late (I hope that's all right), but I actually got a lot of exercise working in the yard and garden this weekend, hoeing, raking, moving firewood, etc.

Day 1 - June 1: 30 minutes of heavy gardening
Day 2 - June 2: 1 hour of heavy gardening
Day 3 - June 4: 25 min walk
Day 4 - June 5: *Two* 20 min walks
Day 5 - June 7: 20 min of yoga
Day 6 - June 8: 15 min walk
Day 7 - June 9: 30 min gardening
Day 8 - June 10: 20 min of yoga
Day 9 - June 11: 30 minutes gardening, and I've also added to my goal doing a set of chair exercises at work at least once a day
Day 10 - June 12: 15 minutes yoga, one set of chair exercises
