    At the beginning of this month, we asked what your goals were for October. We are almost half-way through the month today. The following team members responded with the personal goals they have for the month. Check-in and let us know how you're doing.

    Remember ...

    4zb7yxghpjtf.png

    @motis3678 - to end the month at or under 275.
    @allietuge - to get as close to the 150s as I can
    @crystalbarton31 - to get into the 180s and stay there consistently
    @audreypawdrey - 4 yoga classes a week
    @BB_1033 - at least a 10 lbs drop
    @shalvy2007 - watch sugar intake and increase my running.
    @tuddy315 - cut out sweets, to be in Onederland by Thanksgiving
    @cr00000 – to get to 169 by Oct 31
    @Keepingtrack1234 - to continue to make moderate choices with food and exercise twice during the workweek for 10 minutes
    @MayaVDM - to drop about 5 lbs
    @FatimaStartsAllOver - drop a minimum of 10lbs
    @Matthewsfive - to see a loss of 6 pounds
    @Tickie99 - to drop 5 lbs
    @MMMonk – to lose 8 pounds
    @bonniehosk85 - to hit 220 by October 31

    I'm such a slow loser I'm not sure I'll make my goal but I have had two weeks of a downward trend, and for that I am thankful.



    @BonnieHosk85 you are so amazing for compiling this and keeping us on track. Yet ANOTHER reason why I love this group. I have exercised plenty (I am awful at tracking that!!! No fitbit synced, etc...but I do log on Fitness Blender the workouts I do!) but I have been eating more junky sugar the last 10 days...and drinking some wine! Some celebrations, etc...but overall, doing ok! Would really like to keep focused before the holidays and keep momentum into 2020! It's so far beyond physical. My mental health is much better when I am eating healthy and moving my body (and getting great sleep!)

    @Keepingtrack1234, I really want to stay focused before the holidays, too. I want to enjoy the food and celebration, but not eat like a pig as I have in the past. We can do this! <3 And, you're so right about mental health. I feel so much better about myself and life in general when I'm exercising and eating healthy food.

    @Keepingtrack1234

    I can totally relate when you say that your mental health is better when you eat right and exercise. I find that when I overeat, eat the wrong foods and not workout my anxiety hits hard. You would think I would learn my lesson and not do that anymore 🙄

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

    My first Tough Mudder is on Saturday. Yay! Unfortunately, my husband and I have been having a disagreement about my caloric intake as we approach the big event. He thinks that I should be eating more in preparation for the activity. I don't see that as necessary, since in the last couple of days before the event (Thursday and Friday) I'll be resting more than training. So, as usual, we compromised. I'll do exactly what I want.

    I will admit to you sweet people, because I need to get this off my chest - it irks me that a man who doesn't exercise at all is trying to tell me how to do it. I do my research, I check my sources, I avoid fads, and I am careful. I know he means well, I know he loves me, I know he has my best interest at heart but still...

    @allietuge, you look fabulous! What a cute baby!! <3

    @shewhoismany, good luck on the Tough Mudder. They were here in Nashville Oct 5 and 6th and I saw photos from my friend who did it. It looks like a lot of fun!

    Getting closer! We are going camping next weekend from Thursday to Sunday for my girls’ fall break, so I am going to have to stay focused to not gain by next Monday! I also had signed up for a DietBet, and the weigh in is on Saturday. I am 2 lbs. under now, but my weight can fluctuate that much in a day. I am hopeful to stay where I am now by then!

    But it is TOM which was two weeks late so I'm surprised it's not more.

    I was really hoping to have lost more since two weeks ago I was 163, but this TOM is very hard to get through so I’m thankful it isn’t higher. It seems this time every month I get so burnt out on trying 😓
    I’m excited for next week to see it go down some more. Keep it up, crew. Seeing all of your progress is inspiring. 💕

    Hey team. I wanted to let you know that Michelle (@motis3678) has done an exceptional job at helping me with the co-captain duties, but she's got a bit much on her plate right now to continue. She's been an excellent co-captain and has faithfully logged our weigh-ins and been an encouragement to us on this fit journey we're all on. Please let her know how much you appreciate all she's done for the group. Very thankful to say she is not leaving the challenge, but just stepping back a little so she can handle other things in her life. Love and appreciate you, Michelle! :heart:


    Good loss, @pikapuff11! Keep pushing through! :star:

    @looneycatblue, sounds like you had a great time. Congrats on the loss! :star:

    @BB_1033, it'll be better next week! :heart:

    @MMMonk, nice loss! :star:

    @audreypawdrey, nice loss! Have a great trip with your daughter! :star:

    Thanks @BonnieHosk85! You are truly a gem <3

    Team - I'm happy to say I'm sticking in this challenge with you! A lot is going on in my world. While some of my service positions are taking a hit, my health is not going to take a back seat this time. It's been humbling to realize I can't serve this team like y'all deserve, but I know we are in capable and loving hands with our wonderful Bonnie.

    I love this team dearly and I need to stick with ya through the mess of the next couple months! Thanks for your patience and support team!
