I have so failed this challenge. I've only hooped 5 minutes on 3 different days. I know as I lose more weight, I will have to get with it if I expect to eat the same amount of food.
PrairieQueen: it's always a struggle to build a new routine and figure out what's going to work. The hula hoop is challenging, I'm sure! 5 minutes is probably a good amount to start with. Can you add some free dance or stretching to pad the time a bit until your body is ready to handle more hooping? Can you attach your exercise time to some other part of your day to improve consistency? Lots of people exercise in the morning to make sure that they get it done. I use exercise to improve my insomnia, so I exercise the first chance I get after 3pm and that helps me feel tired at bedtime.
September goals: 1300 min, 21x 8K steps, 8x Strength Training
