    I'm in! Been struggling immensely recently (depression, low self esteem and general crap feeling - haven't gained or lost anything for 4 weeks so just need to move more)
    Started the 30 day shred this morning so just the boost I need! Also have decided to try a no alcohol couple weeks as that's my main downfall.

    We can do this guys & girls!..

    Very happy about these challenges because they make me believe in myself when I am having a bit of a low. Overall, I can see the right tenedency - 5 kg less than 2 months ago.
    This week ahead doesn't seem too dangerous so far - let's see how it goes!
