    As of October 18th this is how I am doing with my challenge:

    1. I had 128 oz of water (out of 128oz)
    2. I exercised for 112 minutes today (out of 90 mins)
    3. I am going to eat more than my original 1500 cals because I am upping my workouts (daily calorie goal is 1500)
    4. I completed my food diary as honestly as I could today.

    my starting weight is 192 and I have a cute red shirt I would like to fit into. Thanks for this challenge that I will report on daily.

    I know I ate a lot today because my stomach is actually full!

    Thanks so much. So today the hiccup was I turned my ankle badly so no walking but I burned almost 400 calories doing wii boxing for an hour and drank all water and stayed under calories :-) so I'm trying to figure out new cardio to do while my ankle gets better. Any ideas?

    As of October 21st & 22nd this is how I am doing with my challenge: (Whew, is this month flying by?)

    1. I had most of my 128 oz of water (out of 128oz)
    2. I exercised for 168 & 67 minutes each day (out of 90 mins)
    3. I am going to eat more than my original 1500 cals because I am upping my workouts (daily calorie goal is 1500)
    4. I completed my food diary as honestly as I could today.

    my starting weight is 192 and I have a cute red shirt I would like to fit into. Thanks for this challenge that I will report on daily.

    I'm in such a vicious circle because I know TOM is coming and it doesn't matter how many calories I burn because I will eat the crappiest food ever using up all those calories!! But I will keep on because this too shall pass.

    that "Time Of The Month" is our friend TOM. When I go from "Whew!! I got this workout/Healthy thing" to "Where are the carbs and how fast can I eat them"!!

    Not to mention my mental state goes now the drain too......

    Woohoo! Two more pounds lost! I kinda ate a lot of nigiri last night but during the day I walked a lot but slightly slower as my ankle is still quite sore. Drank 8 glasses of water and was under my calories.. Did everyone have a good weekend? Love to you all!

    As of October 23rd & 24th this is how I am doing with my challenge:

    1. I had most of my 128 oz of water (out of 128oz)
    2. I exercised for 64 & 147 minutes each day (out of 90 mins)
    3. I am going to eat more than my original 1500 cals because I am upping my workouts (daily calorie goal is 1500)
    4. I completed my food diary as honestly as I could today.

    my starting weight is 192 and I have a cute red shirt I would like to fit into. Thanks for this challenge that I will report on daily.

    Still in the vicious circle, I figure if I'm going to keep on eating late night (& not loggin) I will still get up and workout. Somethings got to give, right??

    @Elimay-I'm proud of you for sticking to it, checking in good & bad always. Otherwise I will feel alone and go eat in the corner....just kidding. But the more we stick together the better we are at using eachother's energy to get through this!! I hope your daughter is doing well and Wow! A November challenge?? Someone's got to get me into my red shirt so bring it on!!

    Yay !!!!!! thank you , I needed that,, I feel like I let people down if I post how bad I did ,Im really going to work on it :ohwell: we all have good and bad days but if we stick together our up days will be more than our down :bigsmile: That was so funny you are going to go eat in the corner:laugh: Thank you for asking about Maryam she is having a hard time ,,she is going on a trip and I think she is putting her goals on hold ,I know she is still excercizing but eating right is really hard for her,I will let her know you asked about her :wink: I am really excited about the challenge one day off a week will make it more reachable :happy:

    I couldnt remember how I did last time, it was a post ,this is a blog, I hope it still works out the same If not I will ask Maryam she might remember. and I will change it, were you able to find the blog November challenge ?

    Thank you again :smile: you have been really good about encouraging others and checking in, Its so nice to have you :smile: You help me more than you know !!!!!

    You are doing good Istnlondry. I know with myself I am getting more in a habit of eating better foods and my excercize is really good , So if we just dont give up we are benifiting our bodys even if we have those bad choice days .:grumble: here and there. I quit the LNS group I stay up too late at night and it would send me over the edge, I have all or nothing thinking wish I didnt but I do :angry: So what ever works everyone is different :smile:

    Have a great day tommorow :flowerforyou: WE CAN do it ,:tongue: one step at a time
