I couldnt do the setups but substituted my Osteo Weight program. Had not done it for a while and was shocked how much muscle mass I had slipped. Had to go back to beginner bands. Oh well,I can't change yesterday, but I do sure have control over today and tomorrow. Exercise in for today except for going for a walk0

thats right we cant change yesterday, but today we can control,good luck sweetie!!!!0

I was pretty bad at mini challenges last week but will try and be better this week!0

Only did the mini challenges upto Friday last week due to going away but I'm back now and more determined than ever to get the weight off. There was a wedding at the hotel we stayed at and there were girls/ladies coming in with figures to die for. I will look like that one day I said to myself so I will make sure I work extra hard this week.
Thanks Andrea for setting the challenges. You do an absolutely marvellous job of keeping us motivated and on our toes. Thank you. x0 -
