Put your money where your mouth i$! 30 Day Challenge
So I've been struggling big time with staying consistent. I'll eat well for a few days and then fall into binging patterns where I don't track and eat whatever I want.

What bands have you seen live or…

Any fellow outdoorsy women?
:flowerforyou: Hello MFP, I'm joining here to track my calorie intake as well as to find some inspiration (and maybe give some as well). I would like to lose about 15-20 pounds as well as tone up. I'm very active and outdoorsy. Luckily, I live in the beautiful state of Vermont where trails and wilderness are right outside…
