    I'll try it :) I've been lacking with the ultimate frisbee. Thankfully I signed up for a one day tournament on the 2nd so that should help with achieving this goal :D

    I'm in and I can do a better job this week! This will probably be my last calorie challenge. Next week, I'm gonna start hitting the strength and toning stuff and that doesn't burn as many calories. I almost need a time toning challenge to force myself to do it!
