OK, I skipped last months challenge and failed the challenge before but I'm back! Let's see...there are 31 days in April.....hmmmmmmmmm....how about 1500 minutes to get back on the wagon. Hopefully I can top that. I also want to make sure to get water in and I'm on a week no sweets fast because it just causes cravings on top of cravings for me. Ok and I want to do at least 250 minutes of weights for part of my 1500 minutes (I hate weights but since I stopped doing them I haven't gained weight but I can TOTALLY see a difference in flab level). Ok, that's enough goals for now because I'm going overboard but I'm happy to be back on track!
