Hey ladies!
Summer will be here sooner than we think and I don't know about you but I don't relish the thought of looking back and wishing I made a real commitment to shed the pounds. I remember this challenge which was started by Yana150 last year was a big success and very popular within this group so I'm thinking why not do it again for this year.
Like last year this will be non competitive just a place where we can come together and support one another even if you have no weight loss to report but you may have a NSV or want general chit chat.
The challenge will begin today and end on June 30th 2014.
I officially weigh in Sundays but you can choose which day your comfortable with.
Let's see if we can hit or surpass our goals.
So post below if your interested and include your stats, you can join any time during the challenge dates.
Here are mine

My NSV's by the end of the challenge are:
1) Go down to a size UK 14
2) Exercise minimum 5x a week & complete a Turbo Fire schedule.
3) Look good in a one piece (toner tum)
Looking forward to doing this with you!
