It took me 1 year and 2 weeks to the day to drop my first 100 lbs. I've started to add some jogging into my half hour of treadmill time and I'm working on my breathing. I also recently got into Zumba videos online and just got a Wii Zumba game to ThinBy30https://www.blogger.com/profile/09031590598828688870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-65463440897371329442014-05-16T20:09:33.513-04:002014-05-16T20:09:33.513-04:00I really need to try those David's Teas.

I do the whole bag so I have leftovers.
