Hey guys,
Everyone is invited to join me in this challenge, no matter your current weight. I believe we can do this.
Starting weight (SW): 175pounds
Goal Weight (GW): 125 to 130 pounds.
Please put down your statistics( let's keep it simple)
And at the end of each week ( preferable on a Sunday tell us how much you loss).
Can't wait to start this. So excited.
