Dating back to Ancient Egypt, this piece of clothing is 100% cotton and often worn while walking or exercising. It's shape resembles a "T".

If you started the August Challenge the week of August 18th, you can still win the prizes and get all of the clues. If you walk or run 5 times a week for the two weeks of August 18th through August 31st.

So you only need 10 walks or runs from August 18 - August 31st.

As we all know, if you want to maintain your current weight or lose weight, you must eat healthy foods in the same or lesser amounts. In addition to healthy eating, exercise is a must for weight management. Studies have shown that the amount of food taken in must be equal to the amount of energy expelled or weight gain will occur.
