Sounds like it would be a good one for the July. Looking forward to it.

Sorry I am late reporting but my husband had buddies from 24 years ago show up unexpectedly and we have been on the run. Unfortunately because of the entertaining I gained a pound! So will have to work extra hard to get that off now.

We can have a July challenge, but let's wait till July 1 to start, OK? Now, that's not giving anyone the permission to binge for two days. LOL

I'm glad to see that there are several of us who are losing...I have not joined this challenge...but wanted to let everyone know that my cardiologist has figured out what seems to be causing the weight gain and swelling and as a result of his direction...I lost 8 pounds in less than a week....hope it continues that way.

Not everyone has checked in this week, so the chart reflects the most up to date weight you've posted. We have one more weekend to reach and get off whatever pounds are pestering us most. That's 30.5 lb for this month. We ROCK!
These 60-plussers haven't posted yet, but you can do so next week and still compete for the Spark June Bug:

My June SW is 163. I lost 1 lb. and 5 1/4 inches last month. I hope to to as good if not better this month.
When life hands you trouble slow down and stop to smell the roses. Life is so short, live like today is the last day of your life. Enjoy. My name is Sherry and I am from Erie, PA but live in Ijamsville, MD for the time being.

OK, looks like you guys are ready for another challenge. This month we will collect lady bugs and win a little crocheted trophy of a bug.
Join us for the month and work on healthy living. Just post your starting weight for June, and then on Friday or Saturday, post your weight that day and how much you've lost for the month.
Let's get ready for that swimsuit on the 4th of July.
PS - The June Lady Bug's photo is on the photo tab on the team starting page. Say HI to her.
