Walk Off 10 Pounds This Month

I am so happy to say to everyone that I have been getting comments that they have observed that I am losing weight. They can now see the contours of my face and all that. I guess it's safe to say goodbye to chubby cheeks huh? I have also lost another half a pound in the past two days so I am kinda ecstatic over that. I wish I could lose another 10 lbs in the next month or so. I have found an article over at Fitness Magazine and I'd like to share it with you all.
