    Bathing suit? I'd be happy to be in shorts! But I want to join too! This is so much more fun than only being accountable to myself.

    How tall are you Stef? I noticed our stats were very similar, even our age! I also don't live too far from you, I'm in Oklahoma.

    Yeah, kinda cool! I'm 5'10".

    Yes, please do join in!

    I'm 3 weeks out from surgery and need something to inspire me until I get some restriction. Hopefully this will give me some motivation. I've read all about 'bandster hell', but reading about it and living it are 2 different things!

    Good luck everyone!
