What is one thing you are thankful for each week about your health and fitness journey?-- Each week I am thankful for increased core strength and better posture.0 -
I AM SO IN... 2.2 kg for me
I am trying not to focus on the scales too much and trying to focus on how clothes look/feel and muscle tone... but if I could drop a couple kilos this month it would be great! I'll give this a go - but if I don't see a change on the scale, its cause of muscle-gain from working out 6 times a week!
Anyways, good luck guys!!
Starting Weight: 49kg
Current Weight: 46.5kg
GW: 44kg
My weigh in dates:
1 Nov: 46.5kg

31 Nov:
Total weight lost: ...honestly, 45kg would make me happy!
I am thankful for... Well this quote that I found sums it up...
"I workout, because I can. When I get tired, or I am short on time, or I want to quit...I think about how lucky I am to be healthy enough to workout daily. Be grateful for your health and your ability to become STRONGER. Don't ever take it for granted!"0 -
