    10/15: 183.7
    10/22: 183.6.....wow.....Daily activity level will be picking up as I started a 6 month long term sub job. Gotta watch the sodium though as I tend to crave salty and crunchy stuff when I get home.
    10/29: 182.2 I might make it to 180 as I "over sodium-ed" on Sunday and was 181.2 on Sunday morning!

    I will be setting up the November post later this morning. It will have a limit of 150 also so please let me know that you want in. If you have been active this month I will make sure you make it in for November.

    I definately want in. I lost 3lbs in October, but feel really motivated now so hoping for a bigger loss. I's like to lose 12 lbs by my birthday December 13th. My fitness trainer told me yesterday to only weigh myself once a week as it messes with your head seeing my weight fluctuate so much during the week. But if I just went with Monday's weight of 155 I would have been totally bummed the rest of the week, when today I'm down to 152.

    Thanks for doing this. I think it does help.
