      I'm in too! Getting my focus back and this will help push it into clarity even more :) Thank you! I have a major overseas trip the first 2 weeks of Sept, which includes a wedding, so that's a big motivator right now -- the smaller I get, the better I'll fit in the plane seat (and look in pics)!

      Count me in :) I've fallen off the wagon big time and haven't been eating healthy or exercising in over 2 months. Hopefully this will push me to get back into the swing of things!
