From Oct 12th though Dec 7th were 8 weeks I belonged to a group that helps with weight loss, NSV (Non Scale Victories) as well as exercise. During those past 8 weeks I had a lot of support in reaching the goal of 3 1/2 inches GONE OFF My body!! I didn't lose any weight (I've already lost 108 lbs!) I needed to tighten things up!! That was a personal goal, but it was also set as something attainable with the 2024 Fall 5% Challenge which encouraged us to take our measurements during week 1 and again in week 8. With this in mind I did some core exercises. Now many of you do not know me, my health is not well. I cannot do a lot, but!! I can do slow easy exercise which included on strengthening my core. BUT it worked!!
