Exactly! Now prove it

What the heck??? I don't remember starting this thread!

LMFAO...too funny.

I moved all the "chatter" out of the challenge thread. Your post was the first one I saw (BAD ZIRC!!!) so it says you created it. Enjoy the tokenz!!!

Good idea, Natasha!
I've been doing ok, despite WW3 at my house, I still make time to run. And I mean RUN. Usually, I don't get too much past a fast walk on the treadmill, I think I'm terrified to sweat

but I've been sprinting.

This morning I did the 5 flights of death at work, my goal is to do those with ease one day.

Good job, Panacea!!!

I'll be starting up the September thread in the next few days. I swore I was going to get back on the ball for August and I have failed miserably. Booooooooo me!!!

You'll get there, Natasha!

Most people gain weight/not lose enough in the winter, but I tend to in the summer which is weird lol. Maybe you're like me hehe.

I bought a 10lb kettle bell at Marshall's. 12 bucks. Super excited, I have always wanted one. I plan to beat the crap out of mah fatty arms!

Lost 1.2 lbs this week, just didn't show when I weighed at first lol. I'm glad. It's so frustrating to see the same exact number one week to the next.

I went on a bean soup, grapefruit, and salad diet just for the week. Getting plenty of calories, but mostly fiber and protein, and there are some carbs in the beans. Using lemon and olive oil on the salad for good fats. Going well, and I've been exercising a ton. My goal is to be 170 by New Year's. Kinda thought I'd be at my goal weight by now but it will happen eventually!

You're probably still doing better than me.

I haven't been to work out once this month. I figured I'd start going again tomorrow but then I decided that I should just make this month a total wash so I think I'll starting working out again on September 1.

Booo to me too. I had not been able to go for my long mountain trailing due to heat wave in our area. I had to postpone 2 trails already

I only do my 30 mins stairs/zumba which i feel at times is not enough as I wanna push myself more. IF i don't- i tend to be soooooo lazy

Aw lol, I will be honest, I'm not sure what weight I want to be, because I haven't been under 150 since I was 13. No clue what I will look like.

I went to that My Body Gallery site and looked up my goal weight with the height, kind of a cool place.
This lady is 5'7, 145...I'd be happy like this! lol

I completely understand!!! This is the first time since middle school I've been able to wear an XL shirt or pants w/ no numbers in front of the XL, LMFAO Honestly, one of the scariest things about this whole journey is that I'm not sure I know HOW to be skinny.
