24 days and counting!! I'm definately in !

Am up 1.4 from yesterday's ending St Pat Challenge, so today's starting wt is 190.8. Will shoot for 7 again, and heck why not, the 17/24 exercise challenge!

Let's do this!! What a great group and thanks Theresa for getting this going and so good to see many back from the last challenge!

Good luck everyone, and may we all be lighter, toner, and healthier in 24 days!! YIIPPY FOR US!

LauraK216

I'm definitely in as well! I hope to lose at least 5lbs by Easter, but would love for it to be 10!!

guamchar

Count me in...4 pounds by Good Friday. I would shoot for more, but I'm moving, and I know I'll eat pizza and other crap for a few days during the whole moving process.

Another goal: I enjoy exercise, but I often can't make myself do it. My goal is to exercise 10 out of 24 days. Day 1 done:I mowed the grass!

This is a new challenge that begins today and will finish on Friday, April 10th, just before Easter. There are no set goals, exercises, or anything like that....you choose what you want to achieve and we will be here each day for accountibility and support!
