Down 6.5 lbs. 1.5 to go. 2 days left in September.

I'm not going to push it just to lose 1.5 lbs by Monday morning -- I'm in it for the longer haul and am happy with my September accomplishments. No sense throwing off my plan by shedding fast pounds. I do plan on weighing in again on Monday just to see (and will post here), but I'm declaring victory.

EDIT: October 1

Missed by 1lb. I'm absolutely thrilled. :-)

Hope everyone had a good month reaching towards their goals.

Please join our October 6 lb challenge: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/8812-october-challenge-lose-6-pounds

Be there or be square (or be round) :tongue:

    Down 7.8 pounds.

    I'm basically there. However I might be a little lighter today than where I should be due to a light day of eating yesterday. I expect a slight uptick tomorrow or Monday. But I am also declaring victory. This is my 3rd good month in a row, and I'm excited for October.

    Well, I lost 4.8 pounds in September. I was hoping for more but the real goal is losing the weight and I think I lost an acceptable amount. I think being part of the challenge pushed me a little harder than if I was doing it on my own.

    Still at 216. That is just under 4 pounds lost in September. But the running is still changing my body. So, I will take it! LOL!
