    Weighing-in on Saturday to begin my last detox for the summer season!! I'm pumped for this one. Unlike July, I had too many distractions which prevented me from completing my detox. Now, I'm super focused because this is my final detox until my next one which might be at the end of the year or January of next year.

    I'm going to push hard and finish strong!
    I need this summer season to really work for me!

    August 1st: 183
    Saturday weigh-in: Day 1 detox
    Detox: August 3rd~7th

    August Goal: 178.8
    Ultimate Goal: 160s...
    God is good!
