    I havent done aswell as i would have liked in the challenge but your right Sassy75 its so hard when we all have different routines,but I am pleased that I have kept logging with the group its nice to have the support and its been interesting for me to look back on what im averaging in my workouts as I have been the same weight for a few months.. it shows me that I need to bump it up a bit to stop my body plateauing and getting used to it !
