I'm signing up! This will be my first time doing a challenge so I will apologize in advance if I screw something up. I'll get my DH.. uh maybe my daughter.. uh maybe I'll just attempt it myself lol... to measure all the areas needed. I already measure my waist hips and rib cage and use them as guides. I should have measured the others before I started and I am kicking myself for not doing it. I also have to get a good before pic on here! Oh! Please tell me what a slug represents!

welcome to your first challenge! trust me, even if you do screw up, you ain't the first, nor the last. we can fix most screw ups anyway, so there's nothing to worry about.

slug.... it's what you get if you don't accomlish your weekly commitment. for example, if you pledge to exercise 5 days a week and you end up with 3 rest days, one of the rest days will be a slug. in other words, if you took 3 rest days there's no way you could exercise 5 days.
if you get even one slug during the 6 weeks of the challenge, you can not earn the slug free button. you can, however, still be able to win a first, second or third place ribbon in spite of the slug.

don't forget to tell me how many days a week you are pledging.
