So I did a three month "student special" membership at 24 hour fitness yesterday (aimed at those 18 year olds out for the summer...I think I'm their oldest student!).

Goal by Aug. 29 when school starts: 15 lbs of flab gone (and a lot more brain cells gained, I hope:idea: )

I'll join : ) Put me down for 8 lbs by Aug 31 (or Sept 2 or whatever). I am at a point in my weight loss journey where the loss is SLOW, so 4 lbs might be all I get, but I'm going for 8. I weigh in on Monday's so I'll let you know then : )
