I'm so happy for you!
I'm telling you - exercising post-major weight loss is so different. Wait until you start looking in the mirrors to see your biceps and quads - you get some very sexy looking areas after about 6 weeks. So do it, do it, do it!!
Yes - the challenge could be easy and different for everyone. We could just list our names and goals. For example:
Gina in NY: 6 days this week, arrive at gym 5 min earlier, 20 min on elliptical
Person starting new: 3 days at gym this week, 2 walks in neighborhood
Other person: DVD "chair exercises" 5 times this week.
etc. So each person challenges themself. Then at the end of the week, we get the cyber-standing-ovation from the rest of the group if we acheive our goal. We can change the color of the names to purple or something...
What do you think? Once we get a few folks, we'll start a new thread. (Unless the exercise section has been created at that point...)
