    Good morning ladies, and welcome to our newest challengers: Coco2point0, MissQ85, Rochie81, and rstinne1! Welcome ladies! Thanks for coming to get summer time slim with us! :)

    Nette, girl! I am so excited for this detox/spa weekend. I'm doing my laundry and cleaning the house this evening so that I can spend the entire weekend relaxing and recharging. Depending on how I feel afterward, I will try and do this at least once a month. I will keep you posted, and perhaps next month you can join me! And girl yes, switch it up! Go to the gym, if they have a sauna take full advantage. That was my favorite part of the gym - the sauna! lol!

    Good going, Em! I'd take inches over pounds any day! Very nice!

    Hey Serene, I suggest just keeping it simple, WI and start your new week with some achievable goals. That's what I did this for this week, and it made things easier for me mentally, one day at a time, one week at a time and so on .. Don't beat yourself up, you are still here and every change you make towards being a healthier you counts girl ! One meal doesn't change that. Think of this as living healthy for life, not just a diet plan you know... we all gotta be healthy all our life you know. Stay encouraged, we got you !

    Weighed in and lost 1 pound this week. I bet if I was up on my water game it would of been even more!!! Today is my boyfriends birthday, and we're celebrating it over his parents so I'm going to try to eat healthy (hopefully something will be on the healthy side if not border line) if not then I'll just have to watch my portions.

    My weekly goals for this week is to get in 8-10 glasses of water a day
    Strength train at least 3x this week
    No starchy carbs after 6 pm
