    Last October weigh in: 129.2
    My halloween goal was 129 so I am extremely happy! Only ~4 more pounds to go to get to my Jan 1 weight of 125!

    November goals:

    - Workout 3 days a week in first two weeks, 4 days a week last two weeks.
    - Continue to make healthier eating choices
    - LOG food daily (I've been eating healthier but still not logging and probably still going over my daily goal)
    - Weigh 127 by end of the month (even AFTER thanksgiving)
    - Make more homecooked meals that are healthy (my boyfriend hates veggies and my healthier plates but its really not that hard to make a variation for him so both of us can enjoy what we like)
    - Start running again (outside for a quick run or on the treadmill before a workout class) back down to under 10 min/mile pace

    My November Goals: *( i like that idea person above me)
    Go to the gym at least twice a week.
    Try to fit in 1 day of walking outside (I babysit normally once a week for a 1 year old and take her for hour long walks, I want to make sure I do this even on weeks I don't watch her)
    Do NOT net over 2000 on any day. I have been horrible at sticking to my net goal lately and have gained weight.

    NSV for today is 4.3 miles in 61 minutes and 58 minutes spent on three different exercise challenges. It was a good day.

    My November Goals:
    Continue walking and exercising 5-6 times a week. (Got lazy and was only working out four days a week)
    Write everything down before I eat it. Complete my journal in the morning and stick to it.
    Stay away from trigger foods...don't buy them...problem solved.

    That's it for now. Hope everyone has a great Thursday.

    @cpanus - Great NSV with the 4.3 miles in 61 minutes - you are moving! Great planning goals and exercise goals!

    @kmessinger - Great job and you are in the "yellow" zone now on the spreadsheet! woo hoo! I really like all your specific goals! Also I am really impressed about the 10 min/mile pace - (my next pace goal is 11:30 min /mile)


    @sara456s - Your post about consistent exercise is great:
    I've been doing some exercise 6 days a week for well over a month, even if that is only 20 minutes of walking
    - I have a similar goal -- even if it is 20 minutes of slow walking - just "doing it" counts.

    @sunflowerhippie - Great goals - Especially walking outside. Also I like the Netting over 2000 on any day.. good one!

    October results:

    1st Oct - 148lbs
    31st Oct- 145lbs

    Would like to do 3lbs November, and 3lbs December. Would really love to be 140/139 for Christmas!
    Bit of a spanner in the works as I have infected tonsillitis and haven't done exercise all week- the doctor said expect the virus to stay in my system for 10-14 days! Going to try some exercise today- just low impact.
    Good luck guys.
    Still loving this slow and steady forum!

    I really need to keep focused this month due to holidays and vacations. I am on track, but can easily go astray this month. 3.2 pounds to lose until the end of the year.

    Keep me at the same weight this week please. I've just been eating all the foods - especially the salty ones, so haven't weight in this week - I'll wait until next week to see what real damage I have done :ohwell:

    Congrats to everyone else :flowerforyou:

    CW: 138.4.

    Slightly worrying since I have been losing weight a little everyday since last Wednesday. But I did eat less (1400-1500/day) on thurs to sat to cancel out that Wednesday binge. Oh well! I'm back to 1800 calories this week, so we'll see how it goes!
