in Challenges
Ailene needs to fit into a very special wedding dress for her wedding in July 2017 and she needs to lose 18# to fit. In order to help and support her we're going to lose along with her. Here's the challenge: lose at least 2# per month between now and July. That's a 1/2# per week. On the 30th of each month we'll post how many pounds we've lost that month and how many inches we've lost off our chests, waists and hips. In between please post anything encouraging or helpful and we'll keep Ailene rocking along to wedding day!

    Ignore the previous post! I keep typing this post and MFP keeps losing it. I was saying that I wasn't going to post my specifics, just the changes. Not everyone will be comfortable listing their weight or measurements and it's not really necessary since we're tracking changes.

    I'm in. Not to fit in a wedding dress (<--- obviously that already happened lol), but my 10 year high school reunion is next year and I'd like to look hawt. Just 10 lbs to lose, but they're awfully stubborn. Or I've been awfully lazy. More like the latter.

    CW: 130
    Waist: 27.5"
    GW: 120 OR 2.5" off my waist

    Also, not posting for the end of this month... I need to get a running start.

    I totally want to see Ailene in her dress at the end of this!
