That means I had about 37.5 pounds of fat on my body when I started in October (26%), and now I&#8217;m down to 32 pounds.

With the Johnson women plus Jacobs sister, we are doing a weight loss challenge! We are all working on losing weight currently so it&#8217;s been fun being able to all relate with each other. I&#8217;ve never personally participated in a weight loss challenge&#8230;for obvious reasons. But I have committed to getting down to 128 pounds by February 15th. That&#8217;s a pound a week to lose. So hopefully I can do this because the reward is girl night out with chick flicks, no kids, sushi (for 2 of us) and HEALTHY yet delicious snacks&#8230;so we don&#8217;t undue our progress! I can&#8217;t wait to share my results and probably take pics of our fun night together.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\nThere ya go!
