  • Challenge start weight: 127
    Current weight: 125.2
    Challenge Goal weight: 120
    Personal challenge: Take up an exercise class overseas. Train for a 5k.

    I've started taking different exercise classes so that I'm taking one class per week, and I'm doing about half an hour of either elliptical training, walking up an incline, or using the stationary bike. So far, so good :)

    Hey guys, wanted to stop in and say that I weighed/measured myself yesterday and the results were amazing!

    I've lost 11.5-12 pounds in 30 days!!!!! AND I've lost a total of 10 inches everywhere on my body! The most significant difference being in my thighs, waist, stomach and hips! :) I'm super happy and find that going from 160- 148.5 was not that difficult! I just gotta keep up the good work and well... Do it again so I can end the month strong!

    I am hoping to get to 140-145 by the end of September and well- find no reason I can't make that a reality! :)

    Here were go- let's finish strong for the end of the month! Thanks for all the motivation!!!!!!!
