Introducing America Takes It Off: Summer Quick Fix Challenge

Now that we're into May, there's no doubt that spring is springing. You'll need to dig out a few things: The barbecue, the lawnmower, the sun dresses, the flip flops, and perhaps most frighteningly, the bathing suit. Yes, that's right -- all the failed post-Christmas promises will reveal themselves with a vengence when you step out of the cabana for the first day on the beach. But don't fret -- it's not too late to do something about it.

We're teaming up with our friends at AOL Body to bring you America Takes It Off: Summer Quick Fix Challenge. Each week, we'll offer you tips and tricks to get you looking your best in time for summer. Watch for these great upcoming features:

• Each Monday, we'll issue you a Summer Quick Fix Challenge.
• Don't be shy -- reveal how many pounds you've lost each Wednesday in our Summer Quick Fix Poll, and we'll keep track of your progress in our Wednesday Weigh-in feature.
• Each Friday, we'll reveal how you did and talk about what worked.

Are you ready to take on the challenge and welcome a new you in time for summer? Yeah, we thought so. We'll see you back here on Monday, May 5th for our first Summer Quick Fix Challenge.
