Just Give Me One Month! October, 2021

YellowD0gs

BOO! Welcome, all you ghouls and goblins, you witches and wizards, to your October thread. Fall is definitely here, the leaves are turning, temps are falling, and the Christmas displays are going up in stores all around! No, really! It's not even Halloween and one local hardware store has already SOLD. OUT. of Christmas lawn displays! Ugghh. But enough of that. There's one more month to get out and enjoy the scenery and the crisp Autumn air because...Winter is coming! Just watch out for those piles of candy at the end, right?

Let's do this!

June '21: -3.4 lb
July '21: -2.6 lb
Aug. '21: -6.0 lb
Sept. 21: -6.0 lb
SW Oct: lb
Goal this month: 210
GW: 205

These final few pounds are putting up a tussle! Managed to win the September goal, but only at the very end. Adjusting goals and, if I'm in that neighborhood at the end of the month, there will be one happy Cardiologist in my future!

I’m in! I did these threads last year when I was here and now that I’m back on track I love the accountability of these threads.

So embarrassing starting stats:
Starting weight 322lbs 9/9/21
Current weight 307.9lbs
Goal weight for October 295lbs

Here’s to a good month for everyone.

Starting over again after gaining Covid weight. Walk 3/4 mile and lower back is killing me.

Where to even start... I have been on and off My Fitness Pal for years. The most recent was back in January/February of this year. I'm back now with unfortunately a great deal of weight to go with it.

Feb 2021: 237.4
Sept 2021: 261

So... I am getting back into the community of like minded people that know the struggle and work it takes to make progress. Accountability and focus to move forward.

I'm in! Thanks for the Oct thread It's my birthday month so I'm going extra hard!


Highest weight: 189 lb
Ultimate GW: 133lb
Sept weight release: -3lb, which was a little disappointing but I'll take it no matter how small, glad I didn't continue to rain
End of Oct GW: 161 (-8lb)

Oct 1: 169- on soft foods still since gum surgery yesterday but had to literally sit in my car for 20 minutes tonight and talk myself out of going into a store or fast food place and buying junk food just because it's Friday night. Came home and had sugar free jelly (jello) instead. Win!

@babysaffy The Walmart (great value) sugar free popsicles might be nice and cool on your gums after surgery, and they are only 25 calories. I like them better than the popsicle brand sugar free popsicles (very sour) but those are only 15 calories. And there's sugar free fudgsicles too, only 40 calories. All good, I imagine, on numbing those gums.
