Can you believe it, on October 8th it's exactly 12 weeks until December 31st?? I want to finish the year strong and start 2019 off right and not have to make those dang resolutions yet again.

Starting on October 8th let's do this once and for all. I plan to step up my steps, do yoga more and watch my carbs and calories much more closely.

Who wants to join me?

Monday is the official weight in and pick one thing every week that's a challenge you want to work on (ie: more water etc) and we'll add to it each week.

    Main goal for eating is moderation. No days going off the rails. There will be treats and, periodically, there will be beer; however, I can't go apeshit for days in a row.

    Fitness goal: exercise five days a week and try to maintain well-rounded status. Able to run well. Able to lift decent weight. Able to perform 20-30 minute HIIT work outs.
