    I will weigh officially on Thursday to end the month (currently my TOM so not a good time for weighing. I just booked a surprise trip to Florida for my hubby and I in Jan so I need to kick this booty into gear! Went to the gym today sop that is a step in the right direction, I am all in for a November challenge!

    @bluffgirl67 I am glad they ruled out anything major! Wtg on logging while at the Golden Corral. We did that a couple weeks ago and I made sure to fill my plate with their lovely veggies and then chose my meat. Told myself if I was still hungry I would get a small carb selection. ( Mashed potatoes or Mac and cheese) But I ended up deciding I wanted a small dish of lowfat frozen yogurt. Everything was so good. So nice to feel like you can eat out and not feel like you cant have something. I logged it and moved on. Was still well within my calories allowed for the day!! Buffets are always a little tricky. Lol.. Hope you are feeling better!!

    Unfortunately this will have been my first "up" month in a year. I can thank my vacation for that at the start of October. What I can say is that I am in smaller jeans, and I feel more fit than last month, so go figure... I have been very active this month. It is very possible that I may have gained some more definition and muscle tone (rationalization probably - maybe denial). As I am within 5lbs of my start, I have not adjusted my scale up, as long as I'm going down....down...down.

    SW 242
    MFP SW 236 Nov 2018
    October SW 194
    October End of Month 31 October - Current Weight 198-199.
    I plan to do my November Starting Weight on Monday.

    Tried on last year's costume today for a fun "Halloween Edition" before & progress! I'll be officially weighing in on the first with my October results, since I like to count what I did on the final day of the month as well. ^_^

    what a huge difference! Well done!

    CW: 215 (this mornings weight)
    GW: 199 (then I will set a new one)
    October goal: 210.0

    I struggled the end of August and all of September. I ended up with a gain for the month of September. At the beginning of September, I started taking olanzapine and seroquel. Unfortunately, they make me extremely hungry and groggy. Fighting the hunger while groggy is tough but I am determined to do it this month.

    Goals for October

    1. Walk a minimum of one 30 minutes a day( more is better)
    2. Eat a decent snack when I take my evening medications
    3. Log everything thing I eat
    4. Be more active in my support groups even if it means just reading what you all have posted

    Thanks for having me

    October 31st: 215.6

    I am not totally sad about this. I am still taking the medications and the hunger is real. The doctor has stopped all daytime does of those medications and if all stays well the bedtime doses will be reduced starting November 27th. I hit my goals about 80% of the time except number 4. I read every post in my groups. I may be quiet but I am cheering you all on. See you in the November thread.

    Last week's higher weight was definitely PMS-related, and I'm super excited to end out October past my goal!! 11.3 pounds down for the month. :)
