grr, sooooo close to 170!!!

bring on the August challenge!!!

I bought a reebok one on woot.com and it says the chest strap isn't waterproof, but it totally is! I've used it at least 10 times in the pool and no problems whatsoever, i'm surprised it works, but it does!

here's a link to it on amazon.com:

my fave is the 100 cal mini bags of orville redenbacher KETTLE CORN... salty and sweet... and it hits the spot.  I pop it, let it cool a bit, then transfer to a ziploc.  i also bring a mini bag of m&ms b/c nothing beats popcorn and chocolate mixing in your mouth at the same time!

if sneaking in is too much for you and still feel tempted, then just get the kid's pack... it's the perfect size portion, comes with a small drink and candy... you could get diet soda or give the extras away... also, it's typically cheaper and you get a variety!

welcome celmel and butterfly!! i just wanted to say i started just about where you two were 6 months ago and am down 45 lbs.... (and still going)... so you can do it!! feel free to add me as a buddy and you can see some of my progress pics!

okay, my weight loss has definitely slowed over the past two months. 8 lbs is a very TALL order, but I hope to weigh 170 by July 11th (when I'm going on a bachelorette weekend to LA). I figure, it's summer and I'll have more time to devote to working out and planning/making my meals. So June is the month to kick-start this weight loss back up again!
