    Well, Wish I had the same wonderful successes as everyone else... but, I have been faithful, & just ain't losing. I think adding the 30day shred to my daily list if to-do things is helping, as is upping my calories, so the body isn't bordering on starvation mode. Don't know exactly WHY my body is holding onto this weight, but I do feel like I am losing INCHES- so that is good!
    Best of Luck to EVERYONE in meeting or exceeding their Goals!

    Week 6- 8/15 - 179
    Week 7- 8/22 -176.4
    Week 8- 8/29 - 178
