    Personal challenge - to lose 5lbs, gain more muscle and be consistent with my trainer through out the week. On my days without my trainer, use the work outs she gives me to do at home. Food, food, food minor changes and not to overwhelm myself with all of these lifestyle changes.

    I am definitely in need of a challenge group. More so, I'm tired of venting frustration and talking about my journey with people who are not all that interested.

    SW as of 08/01: 228.8
    Goal for Aug: 210
    Self-Challenge: Gym 3 times / week

    I know 18lbs seems like a lot for a month - but I just started and typically have high drops during the first month I start watching what I eat and start hitting the gym. A couple years ago I hit over 20 lbs my first month. I want to set my goal higher so I am not reaching a low ball goal the first couple of weeks and then slack off. If I make it, I make it. If I don't - I'm still losing, so I don't care much. Guess it's all going to depend on how my body reacts to the "good foods" and not sitting around watching TV every day after work.

    Good luck to everyone who's joined. If anyone would like to add me as a friend, feel free to do so. I love having people I can share my story with, listen to theirs, and not feel like this is a struggle.
