Let The WLS20's EXER-THON Begin!

Here it is...day #1 of the EXER-THON. Remember, everyone is self-accountable for tracking their minutes for the entire exer-thon.  I'll post every Monday or so to (a) kind of remind all the participants to do this, and (b) a place for you to post your minutes for the week if you want to!  But, keep track on your own, because I'm not gonna keep a running tally for everyone. January 21 (today) thru March 21 (first day of spring)...just monitor the MINUTES PER DAY you put into exercise.

In:  36:  Brock1978, Jessica Martinez, emday81, Thomas L., Amy B., Michael B., She She, WLSChickiepoo, Jennifer K., Night Rider, Katie L., Bradysgirl12, ShelbyKelley, Rianne H., Shasta L., Aaron O., SavannahJ85, buttercup1030, tinkergirl, Becca B., kyralyn4, Jennifer W., Snugglebunnyac, kimberasti, Sensdncr86, Annie B., Julainnamivida, LauranKauf, *~*Jaci *, meggiebooboo, Latoya2007, Josh H., SlimNikins, chsrkat1, Kate U., and Jennifer S..

(I believe if I have everyone, if not, tell me.)  (NEWBIES WELCOME!)

No goals!  No quotas!  Just add up each minute you put into exercise per day 1/21 - 3/21 and we'll add up our total at the end and see what we accomplished!

Good luck everyone!

ok ok I saw this posing before and I thought it was a good idea to be held accountable to exercise so I am in. I want to be accountable too.

I'll put you down. Maybe we'll celebrate in style when I get there on March 25. Hey do you know Michael?  You 2 are practically neighbors!

Perhaps. I may be in Vegas, plans are in the works but I am not sure. I would not say I know Micheal but I did meet him last week at a meeting in Gilbert. Nice guy

Seems like a nice guy.  I hope I get time to meet him, perhaps you, and a few others, when I come down March 25-30.  I'd like to go to a support meeting, if I get time, I have never been to one. I get down twice a year, once in March/April and once in November.  And I never get a spare second to do anything WLS related, I'm always so busy.  You aren't supposed to be busy on vacations, are you? Well, good luck on the exer-thon!

I went to my first meeting last week, I liked it. It was also a goal of mine to get involved more in groups and message boards to help keep my confidence up I gained a bit over the holidays so I need a boost.bb

I, unfortunately, gained 8 pounds between the weekend before Christmas (12/21) and this morning (1/21).  Not only did I overeat, I drank many things other than h2o and exercised very minimally.  More than anything though, I found BAD foods that I could tolerate and ate far too much of them.  So, this exer-thon is also kind of a WHERE'S YOUR HEAD AT BROCK?  I'm looking forward to it....because I know how excited I was back on 12/21 to be -101 pounds.

My naughte eating went far beyond just Christmas. So I am excited to get back in to the swing of things. Taking a long walk this afternoon. I want to do 4 miles so I will be logging

Walking outside, sounds nice, I miss it. I hate winter!

Day one of the exer-thon - I'm excited - I've been putting off exerice for a week! just kidding - sorta... We should totally plan a WLS in your 20's get together when you're out here - maybe we could meet up at my favorite new spot - San Tan Flats in Queen Creek.....you'll have to count me out for outdoor dancing though....OR....maybe we could do an official spring-exerthon type event - maybe climb camelback or squaw peak or something? hmm...Group photo at the summit? (with stewie's head pasted over brock's face to protect your identity of course, that would be funny!)
