I also started another total body challenge in April and am down another 16 pounds so far to 165. I have two more weeks to go and hope to lose another 8 before then so I can reach my next goal of 125 down total.

We started doing an additional training after my normal M-W-F exercise class where we focus on one part of the body (legs, abs, or arms) and just basically do rep after rep to the point of muscle failure. It's a beast, but so rewarding when done!

Just an update that I made my goal and finished the 9-week challenge down 25 pounds (13.83% lost) at 155.8 pounds and took first place in the challenge earning $425.

Total numbers since beginning my journey:

- Total weight loss 126.2 lbs
- Total inches lost 63.50
- Body age loss 38 yrs (80-42)
- Body fat loss 27%
- Muscle gain 14.5%
- Percent weight loss 44.75%

Also completed by second 5k on the 23rd with a new personal best of 27:10.

Excellent!!!

That's incredible! Keep it up!


I could stand to lose 30-35 pounds.

I'm planning to get back on my plan soon. But Sonic screwed me up. They have half-price Blasts all day today, provided you mention it when ordering.
