    Hi everyone,
    I am in for this challenge! I was planning to start my sugar abstinence today, so this is perfect. I hope I can still join. I have a 6 week old baby girl and need to lose 15 pounds of my pregnancy weight. Oh, and my name is Ashley and my weight is 173 (yikes!)

    1 lb. is better than nothing, or gaining weight! Good job :) You can still do the 10 lbs in 5 weeks
