    im bombing this month :( mmm pumpkin cheescake ben and jerrys. Ok, but back on it. Just hoping now to be 158 again by the end of the month. Not weighing until then, too scared :( Although a lady at the gym I hadn't seen for a while said I had lost weight and was looking good, so that remotivated me a bit! Still thinking of wedding dress shopping on the 30th.

    SW: 132.4
    W1: 129.8
    W2: 130.4
    W3: 131.6

    Bummer!
    Really thought I'd be down this week, but I guess I haven't been eating 100% and wasn't very active for a few days.

    so I dared to weigh, this is progress for me, when I have blips I usually don't weigh and then get pretty lax!
    Sw:161
    w1:158
    w3: 160

    So still down, and if I can get back to 158 by next week its still a healthy weight range by the end of the month, although will only be a 3lbs loss. Doing ok!

    Oops haven't checked in for awhile...
    October 22 thru today October 26 (so far) I have done 320 minutes!

    Leaving me 27 minutes to reach my 1600 minute goal! Looks like I might have to bump it up again for this last week...I guess I will shoot for an additional 300 minutes bringing my goal up to 1900 for the month of October.

    Well this month was a bust, lol! Going back off added sugars to see if that helps! I've been craving and being a bit crazy around food lately. I feel a lot of pressure because I REALLY want to be at 125 for my wedding...and since I have my next fitting on Nov 11th, I feel like it would be good to be as close to that as possible.
    I've done quite well this year, so I am trying to remember that, but it's hard when I feel like I am so close to achieving my goal.

    Oh, and I'm going to do a final official weigh-in for the month on Saturday.

    Keep at it! I think my final weigh in will be tomorrow, with only 2 lbs lost this month!

    I'm with Jill doing final weigh-in on Saturday. I haven't really been logging this week and was at a conference for several days so I want to give myself a couple days to get back to equilibrium.

    Marla Jean, you're doing amazing logging all those minutes! Hope you feel like it's paying off. That's awesome that you're setting goals and crushing them. Keep pushing yourself. You've shown you can do so much more than what you initially ask. Don't forget to post your end of month tally in the next couple days.

    Jill, don't get discouraged that you maintained this month! That was pretty much me last month (lucky if I'm down a couple for this month). You have a plan and you'll lose next month. You look great in the dress and you will be gorgeous on your big day. You've still got a couple months, right? You've got this!

    Jools, as trim as you are, I'd say 2lb loss is pretty awesome (~0.5 lb/week)! You already look pretty darn skinny to me. Are you taking measurements to see where you may be losing inches even if you're not losing pounds? I know you've said 160 is threshold for healthy weight for you, but looking at those pictures, seems like a lot of that could be muscle (i.e., you could be "overweight" according to standard BMI algorithm, but still have low-normal body fat composition so you are actually healthy where you are). But you have to get to where you feel comfortable. 2lb loss is better than a 2 lb gain. You look amazing! Have fun if you're still doing dress shopping tomorrow.

    Thanks for the support! yeah I'm in a healthy weight range, but still 12 lbs until my goal weight, so not too bad!

    well done everyone this month!

    SW (Oct 1): 156.8 (probably inflated from a big dinner out the night before)
    W1 (Oct 8): 154.8
    W2 (Oct 15): 154.8
    W3 (Oct 22): 153.0
    W4: (Oct 31): 153.2

    Total loss: 3.6

    Sorry for the late check in. I'm pretty happy with my progress this month, even though I didn't get anywhere with my strength training.
