    You, Jessica, @SmithsonianEmpress, are amazing. Very good job!!! Think I will follow your lead, jumping rope instead of burpees today. Thanks for the suggestion.

    I've been a failure this past couple weeks and haven't kept up with the monthly challenge. I've been running a lot but just haven't made it to the gym or made time to do anything else. I'm going to try to get back into it this week, but I just wanted to say I haven't given up completely!

    Hannah, me too :( sorry guys. I don't know what's wrong with me. Well I know what's wrong. It's called life, children, bills etc etc etc We all have these things so it's no excuse. I'll do better this week. Oh and today is a rest day. I know I know. I think June 1st I will start to lift heavy and go to the gym. That's probably the problem. I'm lifting 8,10 lb dumbells and wondering why I'm not leaning out(that's all I have access to at my house). It's not heavy enough probably. I don't know. I'm still doing research on that. I read last night I only should be able to do 3-6 reps of an exercise. Well that sounds heavy AND SCARY! Anyway, back at it tomorrow gang. I hope y'all enjoy yalls Sunday!!!

    I've been slacking super hard these past few weeks with traveling and finals. I fell behind on the challenges but my caloric intake has remained the same, so luckily I haven't gained much weight. I'll be starting up the challenges again tomorrow. You ladies are awesome and your posts are keeping me in check and keeping me going. You guys rock!
