Looking forward to getting more fit with all of you!

 

Just a quick note: We have almost exactly 8 weeks between Independence Day and Labor Day. Most people should lose (at the most) about 2 lb/week after the first stint of water weight when getting on a fitness/diet plan. I'm SO excited to see all of you succeed, but be sure we are being totally safe! And, we don't want to say "I want to lose 20 lb by Labor Day!" only to be disappointed when it's ~15 lb. That would be amazing! So no one should feel disappointed by not meeting a goal that was just barely unrealistic for their health.
