    Hey I like this idea Cheryl! My son is just starting High School and has wanted to be a Marine all his life. He cannot wait to start ROTC in school this year.

    I'm on board with you! My son is away visiting his Dad this summer and will be back early August and I doubt I would be down 20 but I'd be happy with somewhere close to there! :)

    Good luck!

    That's pretty much my goal. My husband is taking me to Mexico mid august and I would like to lose around 20 lbs by then! Good luck on your weight loss journey!

    Good Morning Ladies, I'd be happy to join in. My goal would be 20 lbs by August 30th my 24th wedding anniversary. I think that would be the best present I could give my hubby. I think it will be a hard battle for me, but I'm willing to try.

    Since April, when my doc said loose weight, control the blood sugar, or we are talking Insulin, i've been watching what I eat and exercising about 5 times a week, I've managed to loose 5 pounds. Very frustrating! At least it's 5 boxes of butter I'm not carrying around :wink:

    Cheryl, thank you for your son's service to his country. My daughter has talked about the Air Force for as long as I can remember. She has had to delay because of medical issues, so she has decided to finish her BA in social work before she visits the idea again.

    Have an awesome day today ladies and let's check in with each other regularly.
