    I'm thinking losing 20 pounds by 4th of July is definitely an attainable goal! Some of us just finished the 20 pounds by Easter Challenge (congrats if you made your goal!) and maybe fell a little short. Don't give up! Join this challenge!

    Didn't make my goal. My workouts increased a little while my appetite increased a lot. So right now I'm trying to get back to losing. Currently, I'm only maintaining not on purpose though.


    Total Loss this challenge: 17.8lbs.

    None of you failed. You may have not reached your goal, but you took the steps you needed to and showed progress. That is way better than not at all. Great job!
