  4. So excited for this program!

    My goals for this summer are to attend atleast two morning sessions each week (getting there today was the first step!) and to double my inches lost so far with at least 2% body fat.

    I found a really great site to check out grilling ideas... http://www.foodnetwork.com/grilling-central-course-main-recipes/package/index.html

    Good luck everyone!

  7. Great end to the first week of the challenge! Started the day doing a warm-up with the little kiddos at the Ribfest 5 miler, then a rope workout and 30 min run (with 10 pushups, 10 burpees, 10 squats and 10 lunges every 5 min). Feeling great!
