Christmas Day Challenge!

Alright Thanksgiving is here! But now is the most important time of year to stay on track! So I hope no one else started this challenge already and I missed it! So is everyone up for a Christmas Challenge! I will start it! My weight loss has slowed since getting closer to goal, but I know I can do this!

Current Weight 159

Goal to be under 150

So is any one else in? Do we want to do weekly check ins and if so what day works best for everyone else?

Hey Spiedose!

Be careful there, friend! YOu can lose a lot in the first month and have done FABULOUS so far, but be careful while at the gym and don't get carried away! You have to give your body time to completely heal before going all out. Walking and toning-great......we don't want you in the hospital for rupturing anything! Easy does it.....you have the rest of your life to gung ho it. Allow yourself to heal now.
