    Hey Chrissyh,

    I wanted to let you know that I think you are a great inspiration. I lost my mother to pancreatic cancer a few years ago (she was 47) and I know that she wanted to fight and take her life back but the cancer was to strong. You keep it up and truly appreciate every day the lord has made, we owe that to the ones who no longer get the chance. .. Again, welcome to JACKED and TAN where we are all the most positive and encouraging people you will ever meet!

    By the way readers... turns out Beau has been at work the whole time, I just didnt recognize him because he was so JACKED and TAN!

    Thanks yellowbus!

    That's okay. We can still eat healthy and try for a good workout tonight! We may not be tan (because of the rain), but we can get jacked!

    Samie and I walked 2 miles at Imagination Station AND had Subway for lunch. Things are looking good for the girl's team! How about you boys? Are you going to make it?

    Hello to all jacked and tan individuals. I was speaking with my man Toby and we were thinking about having possibly a jacked and tan get together to maybe play some tennis or go hiking in eagle point park or something of that sort. This way we could all put a face with who we are talking to. Well most of you know each other but some of us only know Toby, lol. If you are up for it, please leave some feeback. We would like to try for possibly the weekend of the 12th.

    Love it! That's a fantastic idea. I love the idea that we could get together for an active activity :) I'm in!

    If she is in... I am in. Sounds like fun. What if we make it a picnic lunch also, and we all make healthy food. Also, we could bring recipes for the food we made so that we all get new healthy recipes.

    We can hike and do activities afterwards to burn the calories...

    Hello Everyone!!

    I was thinking after the picnic/hike, everyone could come to the tennis courts and watch Toby get beat by a ginger kid....

    Yeah, and then maybe when that kid is done beating me... Everyone can watch Bo go down like flight 1549. Too soon?

    GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING! Here I am to really join this group - and yes, It's really SARAH posting this, not Beau on my behalf...sorry, had to bust ya out Beau!

    I just got home from a job/walk (run a block, walk a block, run a block...etc.) and my legs are killing me! Especially my calf muscles... I bet tomorrow will be better though...hopefully! I struggled today, but pushed myself to run/walk anyway.

    Now...just need to focus on my calorie intake - it's got to be smaller!

    Have a great day everyone!! I can't wait to be JACKED AND TAN!!!...lol

    Way to go Sarah! Keep up the good work. I tried the old run/walk trick last year, but it really hurt my knees so I gave up my running career.

    It's the day before weigh in so be sure to eat right and exercise today! Our dinner menu consists of grilled salmon and broccoli...YUM! Good luck and keep it up!

    Welcome to the BIG SHOW Sarah... Where Dreams Come True... except that one where I show up to work in my underwear, that one does not come true. Oh well. Good to have you "officially" on here.

    Yes Dan...I actually think "manual labor" is under cardiovascular exercise. Are you putting in a new mailbox post?

    I just took the drawers out of my kitchen. Do you think "kitchen deconstruction" is an exercise option?

    SHORT TERM GOALS...

    I thought we should all post short term goals. The goals should be relatively easy to attain, just to give us a milestone victory when we accomplish it. Heres mine:

    I would like to weigh 245 and be 75% tan by Tampico Days (July 26)

    And by July 26 you mean June 26 right?

    Good goals Toby! I think that's fantastic!
