    I'm pretty good about cardio. My goal is to make sure to get in some strength training, by doing body shaping class once a week and kickbox intervals 1-2 times a week.

    I've been taken over by aliens - they're making me type this: I'm in! OMG!!

    Starting weight: ~170lbs
    Goal weight: ~155lbs
    Ultimate weight: ~145 lbs

    I'm scheduled for a Half Marathon in 3 weeks (not my first).
    My weight's been creeping back up and the clothes are fitting a bit tighter. Summer is not a good time for me - I prefer cooler weather.

    I need to start going back to the gym and fitness classes and get toned back up again - my arms have become wobbly too and the belly is what belly's do when neglected.

    Is anyone trying to bulk up on the last day before the challenge to lose more during it?!? Am I crazy to even let that thought pop into my head?
