Happy October! I am Sue and am new to the group and excited to be here. I am 57, a former runner, ran cross country and a little bit of track in college, continued later with 5Ks and then half marathons and even completed 3 marathons. Middle age hit me with an injury that doesn't want to heal (torn gluteus medius, minimus) and about 3 years ago and I had to stop running. Have been steadily gaining weight since. Recently I've accepted that running may be over but asked myself "OK, What can I still do?" I can elliptical, strength train, use the rower, bicycle and walk, so have stepped up those activities and find I am enjoying them. I'd like to lose 3 lbs in October which will be a stretch because working very hard at it, I only lost 2 in September (but it's also the first decrease I've had in 3 years so I'll take it!) I like the tip to wait just a bit before indulging. Thank you all for letting me join in the fun with you all!!3

@Fitness327wk * Take the Three Min Test was a super helpful trick to me today---THANK YOU--- on a fast and wanted everything in sight....stopping and thinking and I put my Apple Watch timer on and made myself wait 3 minutes--- by the time it went off I was distracted and doing something else and realized I never needed it.
Hopeful that I can make this stick throughout the weekend---my most tempting time of the week.2 -
I hope you all had a wonderful start to October.
I had a couple good realizations. When setting my goal for the month I thought 6 pounds seemed like such a small goal. But it’s what I lost in September, and if I could manage that consistently, it would mean major losses over 6 months. It feels attainable and it feels hopeful.
I also love the advice to pause before indulging.
I’m also getting back into my tea stash. I have dozens of varieties of loose leaf tea in all different flavours. It’s actually great for staving off cravings in the evening. Tonight I made a matcha with beet root. I even have some soup teas. 15 calories per cup. High in sodium but when my alternate is crackers or chips, it’s a great way to go.
Will report some steps later tonight

Daily Team Challenge: I will pose a treat, tip, question and/or comment everyday and would love for our team to add their thoughts.
Oct 2 HELLO October! 🍁🍃🍂🍁🍃🍂
So mind over matter isn’t working?!! What do I do now?
Let’s Go Back in time....
Cut back on calories by learning to snack like a preschooler, says Goodson. "Many people get in trouble with snacking because they eat too much. So trick your mind into eating less by portioning your snacks in small baggies. This helps you feel as if you're eating 'all' of something, which satisfies your brain." Ideally, break out portion sizes of chips, snacks, and other goodies as soon as you bring them home from the store so you're not tempted to dip your hand in the entire 10-serving container. To further avoid temptation, keep the portioned snacks out of sight hidden in a cupboard.
How can we help trick our mind? Let’s share friends!

LAST 90 DAYS
The moderators have put together an extended challenge for the last 90 days of the year. Being the last 90 can be difficult, with EVERYTHING that is going on - these 5 steps are designed to keep you centered during the chaos.
Check out the new EP Moderators' Challenge. Five little things you do EVERY DAY for the last 90 days of the year. You can adapt the list for yourself, but they should be five attainable things that if you do them every day for the rest of the year, you will hit the New Year as a new you already.

The last 90
Make time for yourself:
This one is easy for me. My husband has to be up at 3am for work, so he’s in bed before 8pm. Everyone else in the house goes to their rooms for the evening and I get the living room all to myself for up to two hours a night.
Exercise 30 minutes a day
Once my exercise bike is here my goal is 30 minutes a day of riding.
Hydrate
All good. I have a huge insulated cup that I fill at least four times a day.
Give up a trigger food
I don’t keep trigger foods in the house, so I’m good there. My trigger is laziness and the I don’t want that, which leads to ordering food in rather than cooking. I’ve been trying to beat this one for awhile. My plan is to prepare a few meals that can be frozen and easily reheated for when this happens.
Write down something you’re thankful for
I’m thankful for three great kids and husband who have been extremely helpful this week while I’ve been sick.2 -
