    I plan on participating. Waiting on my final weigh in for August before I have any numbers to post.
    I just ordered a new scale on Amazon so I will probably wait for that to come in too because my numbers might change!

    I'm going to join in as well. I am going to wait and add my numbers on Sunday though.

    My favorite fall exercise is probably walking. I love fall weather and it's so nice to walk outside when it is finally a little cooler.

    Favorite fall exercise : don't know, probably running if I can get back to it full swing after knee problems. Would love to be able to run when it isn't like a sauna outside.

    Current challenges: my weight bounces around for no reason and I can't get past the 130 lb mark. If anybody can tell me how to lose the last 13.6 lbs I would greatly appreciate it.
