    Doesn't look like I will meet my 150 goal. I had a great week last week... till friday. Friday am I was at 165.8, then made poor choices all weekend. I was back up over 170 at one point, so I will take 167.4. I know most is water weight, but it's still a gain. It will take me all week to get back to where I started on friday :o(

    Congrats to those who lost

    We're over halfway there for this challenge. I'm getting stronger each day with my workouts (zumba, zumba toning and JM dvds here and there). Also I am jogging 3 minutes straight (which I never thought I could do) at 5.5 pace. This week my goal is to jog 5 minutes straight. Today was my first day of 8 weeks of therapy for my sciatica which I hope will stop this aching pain!!!
