I lost 21 pounds already!

I’m in my 2nd weight-loss challenge and I lost 21 pounds so far! Yay!! It has been a rough few weeks being sick with bronchitis but I still managed to get some exercise in. I did some of my Zumba dvds and rode my bike around the neighborhood.  This weight-loss journey has not been easy…
