Sorry for the late review, this have been a little off but they are getting back on track.Looks like we lost a few people during the first week. Hopefully they will check in this week. I haven't figured out how to transfer the video from my camcorder to teh computer yet so I really hope my descriptions of the exercises from dance class make sense. Keep moving and getting those cardio minutes! :)

I just realized that I forgot to add Sonya to the side bar and my grid from Monday. I knew she was par of the challenge but somehow missed 2 IMPORTANT pieces. Is there anyone else who did in fact sign up by or before May 9th that I have missed? I swear I didn't mean to, I have my reader organized with the challengers but have no idea how I missed the most important part.

When I started the challenge I mentioned that I would do a post for all to share their measurements if they wanted. Well I'm a little behind, but here it is!You don't have to share, but if you want more accountability, then now is the time to get it all out in the open :)

Here's a chance to post your exercise goals for May that are in addition to the challenge. You don't have to comment but if you want more accountability then I say we put it out there for all to see.Feel free to include any other healthy/weight loss goals that you would like to be held accountable for.

Please leave a comment with the part you would like to work for the May Challenge. This would be in addition to what ever exercise regimen you already have.Majority wins!1. Upper body/Arms (biceps, shoulders, triceps, chest)2. Abs/Core/Back (core)3. Lower body/Legs (lower body) If we choose lower body I have a crazy squat that my dance instructor makes us do that is a killer but great to do!

Do I have to email you my total exercise minutes each day?No, please no. If you do my inbox will be flooded and I'll start pulling my hair out. Just post your weekly total as a comment, each Friday in the weekly check in post.How can I keep track of my exercise each day?Jot it down in a journal, or on your fridge, or if you're a little OCD like me you can log them all in a handy dandy Excel

1. You must exercise at least 400 minutes in the month. That may sound like a lot but it's only a little over 6 hours for the entire month, that's less than 15 minutes a day. 2. Take your measurements and log them somewhere. Post them in your blog if you feel bold but as long as you have them somewhere to compare at the end of the month.3. Find one pair of pants or a top or both that fit now or
