Welcome to the monthly challenge. June is here, Summer is coming...that means pools, YIKES!

Copy and post the template below and fill in the information that you are comfortable sharing on June then come back every Sunday the 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th and the LAST DAY OF THE MONTH --Monday June 30th and post your updated weight. I will keep track of the weights to get a table listing everyone's results on the following weekend.

Good luck to everyone and remember this isn't a contest it's a challenge and you are a winner no matter how much you lose. The first three items are required all others are recommended, but the last one is the most fun. If you are new to our monthly challenge please leave a short introduction.
