Weight loss this summer: n/a

Anyone want to partake in a summer weight loss challenge? Specifically, I have teachers in mind but anyone can work with us.

I teach 8th grade science. I just finished my 13th year today. I lost 38lbs this past school year and hope to lose another 20 over the summer break. I do official weigh-ins on Fridays, but will skip tomorrow since i started with today’s weight. If you want to join me, check in however often/on whatever day works best for you.

Hope to find a community that can work together over the next 3 months!

    First official day of my summer break yesterday and I walked a little over 3 miles. Didn’t jog at all, so…goals. Down to 253.3. I keep wanting to log numbers in the 270’s, i was in that range for so long. Keeping the weight loss going longterm is a new experience for me. It will take some getting used to.
