8 Week Challenge!!!

These past 8 weeks Brandon and I have been a part of an 8 week challenge given by Mixers nutrition. We made goals for ourselves and had 8 weeks to reach our goals, we took before pictures of ourselves and I took an after picture (brandon doesn't want to give an after picture yet, he wants to keep going and losing more weight, he wants his picture to be more dramatic.)
Here are our goals and my before and after pictures (Brandon just refused me to put his on because he wants his pictures to be more drastic I think he looks really good, I wish he would let me put up his pictures:

Brandon's Goals:
Lose 35 lbs
exercise everyday for at least 1/2 hour
Eat healthy meals
Start and finish a book
Personal prayers every morning and night
Family scripture study every night
Go to Temple at least once a month

Diedre's Goals:
Lose 10 lbs
Tone muscles especially my abs
eat healthier
exercise every day
Start and finish a book
Personal prayers every morning and night
Family scripture study every night
Go to Temple at least once a month
Organize house

Before: (as I was putting these pictures on Krew tunes to me and points to my before picture and said I don't like that one, then points to my after picture and said I like that one haha, Thanks Krew. I know I hate this before picture too, I wish I could burn it!!)

You look fantastic and I haven't really seen Brand in a while, but I'm sure he looks great too! Jordan said he's been doing really well! Makes me want to be better at our exercising and eating habits.
