I am in a challenge that ends 09.03.2012 and I am not doing so well (gained 2 lbs). So I am stepping up with my exercise. I am also gonna try to complete the Jillian Michaels 30DS to reach my goal. I am going to Jamaica the end of September (Honeymoon/anniversary/vacation) and I am determined to reach the 120s. I will post my starting weight in the morning.

Just for fun: What is one thing you have been wanting to do when you have lost enough weight?
I want to go indoor sky diving! There has been a lot of activities that I want to do, but there are maximum weight capacities
Did zip lining when I was 250 which was the max, and I could barely stop because I'd flyyyyyy through the trees! It so scary because I would smash into the tree because I couldn't stop. Never want a weight to prevent me from doing things I'd like to do, which has happened. 0 -
