Don't trust my scale
Well one minute my scale says I weigh 251 - then I weigh 248, then 255. So should I just be keeping track of my measurements instead?

Total Excuse Maker
Hi guys. I have been registered on here for a year, but as you can see I'm a huge excuse maker! Anyways, I'm back in full force. Right now I'm doing the 30 day Zumba challenge and I can barely move.
