Here's to a sexy Halloween!!!!

Options
I have never really made smaller goals to achieve. I have only looked at the one large goal. I feel like making smaller goals will improve my motivation to push hard and before I know it I will be at my UGW. So this is my official pledge to start making these smaller goals. My first small goal is to be down another 10lbs by the end of August. But my favorite goal so far is to be down at least 30 lbs by Halloween!

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays and I have always wanted to be one of those girls that can go buy a cute costume and look GOOD in it! I hate shopping for costumes in plus size because for 1 they are just usually not as cute and they are expensive as *kitten*!

I would love to have some ladies (guys too) join me in a Halloween challenge.

Also feel free to add me if you are as committed to this weight loss journey as I am. I love to add friends for motivation and support!

Who's in? :)

    Me! I have never been able to wear those sexy outfits! I worked at a halloween store one year after my son was born and was so jealous. I couldn't even squeeze into a large and I am not a big girl. But this year will be different

    :drinker: heres to halloween! haha

    Awesome! :) I'm going to be weighing in on Mondays. When I do this I will also post a mini challenge for the week, and will post when I have completed the challenge. You can complete these mini challenges or feel free to make your own weekly activity or nutritional goals and share them with the group!

    So excited for this! :)

    Hoping I get a good response for this! I posted it specifically in a group forum but didn't have many takers, so decided to post in open forum.

    I know it's kinda late but I will do a motivational quote for today anyway!

    "I am too positive to be doubtful, too optimistic to be fearful and to determined to be defeated!"

    No you won't be! I'm totally in. I basically never go out on halloween because I can't compare to those girls in the cute skimpy outfits. But this halloween I will.

    Here's a motivational quote by a random guy on reddit. I really liked what he said.

    "Losing weight is just math. Burn more calories than you take in, and you'll lose the weight. There aren't any tricks to it. You either do it or you don't."

    It made me think about all the ridiculous excuses I use not to exercise or eat well. Self-discipline is all there is to it!

    I'm totally in too! I'm so tired of every halloween having to make my own damn costume which never turns out nearly as cute as I want. Or I end up in something frumpy and not even really a costume! It's my last semester in college and I really want to enjoy this one, so here is DEFINITELY to a sexy halloween!

    I'm In! I definitely think that smaller goals do help you get the to bigger goal faster. I'm hoping to lose at least 20 pounds by halloween. Hopefully the motivation will help!

    I'm hoping to be at my goal weight by Halloween but I think I'm going as a stormtrooper lol. Sexy costumes aren't my thing.

    Good luck to everyone though!
