  • Let's make November, MOVEmber! What are you going to do this month for exercise? State your goal and track it throughout the month with a supportive and knowledgeable group. We'll help each other meet our goals.

    We'll compile our exercise goals into a list. As each goal is met during the month, it gets turned RED in celebration.

    For other weight loss goals, check out our sister thread, http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/chic...ml#post4514611

  • I'm not going to set a goal in terms of # of minutes or days I'm going to work out so that I don't get disappointed, but I'm going to come here to the forum and "log" my exercise for accountability! Good luck today!
  • Happy, happy, happy to see the November thread! I've been doing minute and workout challenges and while I have been more successful than I ever imagined, haven't met my goal(s) the last two months. This time around I'm forgoing minutes and number of workouts and focusing on running mileage. For November my goal is 50 miles running. I'll also include other workouts if done, but I'm focusing on running this month.

    Happy November to all!
