    I would like to join this group too. I am old in body, young in spirit. I will have a knee replacement in a month , so not doing any aroebic exercising.at the present time. I weigh 214 pounds, 5'7" tall. Would love to get down to 150 pounds. It is a constant struggle. When I was younger it was so much easier to lose the weight. The older you get, the more difficult it becomes. Good luck to you all on your weight loss journey.

    Oh my goodness, I didn't know they still even made SkipIt. Cool, I remember those from when I was a kid. Good for you.

    I haven't logged any hardcore cardio today, too much housework to do. I have been cleaning house for like an hour, but not too hardcore, just dishes, laundry, sorting and organizing papers. So, I will log some good stuff tomorrow.

    Thanks I am 222 and in three weeks a healthy weight loss would be 216 but I would like to strive for 213. Hopefully a challenge will give me more motivation.

    I only got in 4 glasses of water today, and I have 0 minutes for cardio for Sunday. Sunday is the one day I don't workout.
