    Good morning Team Perseverance. In order for me to make this more of a challenge for me I am posting my weight and measurements (ugh) for all to see. I feel this will help motivate just a little more. The pic will be coming shortly. (My husband was worried I was going to pose in a swim suit and post it). I am somewhat old fashioned so I don't show much skin in public.

    Aug 1 Weight: 134.5
    Waist 35"
    Hips: 37 1/4"
    Thighs: 22 1/2"

    Now is time to go tackle those jumping jacks!

    Ty ryry18! I have a huge and I do mean ENORMOUS heart for people who struggle with their weight. Some of them tell me they think they are ugly and it kills me. I see the potential. They really are gorgeous people just trapped inside of a body that is keeping them in a prison.

    Some of the most beautiful people I've ever known are obese. Some of the ugliest people I know wear a size 2 and have the most awful spirit and personality about them. G-d looks at the heart and it's not about losing weight to become a hot mama it's really about reclaiming dignity and being healthy.

    Good morning team! I was happy to be waking up today because it's August, FINALLY! lol But Im ready to bring it! This past week I've gained 7 ounces :( maybe because it's my TOM but I was pretty bummed and ashamed about it, but im picking myself up & going to keep going. To be honest this is the forst time ever being this motivated and dedicated to shedding these pounds off. Im happy to have found MFP and this challange..

    I am going to work my *kitten* off. I am glad to be on this team and to have a awesome captain.. I really think we are going to win this :)

    100 done. Decided to just get them done in one swoop instead of through out the whole day as I originally planned. That way I wouldn't forget!
