    Thank you everyone for getting your numbers in. If you aren't on the spreadsheet it is because I didn't have your initial numbers by July 1st but you can still follow along.

    Our winner for this week is redhotredneck with an amazing 4 inches gone in one week!
    2nd place goes to ssweets18 with 3.5 inches shed
    3rd place is a tie between two lovely ladies with 3 inches gone....Amsparky and Kalrez

    Redhotredneck picked 100 wall squats for our optional weekly challenge.

    https://spreadsheets3.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?hl=en_US&key=tF5wWIcjNjNPFrWXBE-v6AQ&hl=en_US#gid=0

    I honestly find this hard to believe - that I made my goal. I feel like I am not making ANY progress. Even seeing these numbers, I think maybe I just measured differently last Monday (even though I took the measurements multiple times today).
