Labor Day Challenge 2012



Recommended Posts

Can pre-opers participate? My surgery date is 9/5 and I'd love to lose 20 lbs by then. The last week and a half will be the high protein/low carb preop diet.

Of course you can! Here we are all for one and one for all. Welcome to the gang :)

Yes. I usually have to go back and either quote myself or recap my goals when I post my results so others can see my progress.
