    My goal for this month is to lose 3 or 4 cm in my thighs. But I want to lose a few pounds too!

    August 1: 70.7 kg (155.86 lbs)
    August 9: 70.1 kg (154.5 lbs)

    1 lbs lost! :D

    Reason for losing weight going on vacation and don't want to be scared wearing my bikini. Also, tired of clothes being to tight and having to suck it in constantly. I want to look good for my honey and mainly ME!
