Good morning Team Downsizers! This week we aren't doing a weekly challenge because we would like for you to give our
STOP EATING CRAP OCTOBER CHALLENGE a chance. If you can do the whole month that would be awesome! But if you only do one week, that will still give you some real benefits that will help you with your health and weight loss goals. So come on over and join us!

This is the one I have on my fridge ... I have given up on myself too many times to count ... it is a friendly reminder to keep going even if I do not feel like it

The second was I wanted to complete the Bataan Memorial Death March (26.5 mile hike in the desert) to honor the men who survived. My journey started in 2017 and has been up and down since. My new goal is to be able to wear a bikini for the first time on my vacation in December and to be ready to do the Bataan again.
Shorty. When I read this I was impressed, lol!! I am considering signing up for the Honorary March, in March. It is 14.2 miles, as I'm sure you know. It is so awesome that you completed the 26+ mile March, and are doing it again. Impressive, my friend!! 👏👏😊
The first time I did the march was the honorary. I thought I was going to die. I would love to say it gets easier but nope. Like the they say it's more than just a marathon. I hope to see you on the course in March!5 -

Life is to short to take seriously. Get out there and do some stupid stuff occasionally. We have to laugh. It's healthy.6 -

Meditate daily
