Who feels like upping the ante for August? It's practically a 5 week month. (ok, 4 1/2).

    I'll be lucky if I do 1/2 that amount in a month, but would still like to check in each week if that's okay

    I'm in! My son and I are doing a 10% challenge for an Ipod. 10 is only 1/2 of my 10% but it is a good short term goal.

    I'm in! Just started a new exercise routine that is so fun, I'm having to force myself to not overdo it! And my finances are starting to work themselves out, so I should also be able to start eating healthier, as well. I think it'll be easier to lose weight if I have access to better food than Top Ramen.

    I'm glad your finances are getting better where you are able to eat better.

    I'll check in & post my starting weight after I get back from the Dr & get weighed there tomorrow. I've got to think about these weekly goals everyone does. I've never done that before. I guess it can be a good thing to keep you on track. :wink:
