    I have met my goal of logging my food every day, but I need to improve my water intake goal still.

    I'm up for the challenge!

    Starting weight for September: 187.5 lbs.
    Target weight for end of September: 179 lbs.
    Challenge: Walk around Salem Lake (7 miles) once a week, no matter how much homework or housework I have to do! :tongue:

    Current weight: 186.7
    Challenge: Salem Lake walk completed on 9/1 and 9/7...2 down, 3 to go!

    :happy:

    Current weight: 185.0
    Challenge: Salem Lake walk completed on 9/1, 9/7, and 9/14...3 down, 2 to go!
    Since this walk is 7 miles, I typically do some sprinting through some of it. On Saturday I ran a 5 minute sprint...this might not sound like much to you runners out there, but it is a new record for me. I can't wait until I'm able to run a full mile without stopping! :happy:

    Current weight: 183.4
    Challenge: Salem Lake walk completed on 9/2, 9/7, 9/14, and 9/22...4 down, 1 to go!
    And this week I was able to sprint for nearly 8 minutes! The 7-mile walk took 2 hours, 2 minutes, down from 2 hours, 10 minutes. Also, 30 minutes were spent sprinting...next week's goal is to add 5 minutes.
    I will run the entire thing someday...
    :wink:

    OK - today is the last day of September.
    Current weight: 181.3. While I didn't reach my goal of 179, I lost 6.2 lbs. during this challenge and I am that much closer to goal!
    As for my challenge: I completed the Salem Lake walk on Saturday, 9/28. It took exactly 2 hours, with 35 minutes spent sprinting. My longest sprint was over 9 minutes, something I could not have accomplished at the beginning of the month. I will run the entire thing someday!

    Challenge: Nutrition consistency. I am back to a consistent level which allows me a healthy and slow weight loss. Things will only get better from here.

    SW: 156
    Weigh Ins:
    9/1 156
    9/8 155.4
    9/15 154.4
    9/23 154
    9/30 153 *My official weekly weigh is tomorrow so this is my best estimate for 9/30. It's the difference of the "tale of two scales,”, mine and the one at GISFW used for my weekly weigh-in. They average 2 pounds apart, so home says 151 so I did 2+ for a
    CW: 153 pounds.

    GW 151: I didn’t get here but I’ve moved off my plateau and things are moving in a positive direction for me.:bigsmile:

    Congratulations to those who made their challenge and goal weight!

    My last weigh in was yesterday and I was 143 lbs. Was aiming for 142.5 so only half a pound shy of target!
    I was 149.5 so Total weightloss for September is 6.5 pounds! Not bad! Only 3 to go!
    Well done everyone! Off to hunt for the October challenge! Got 2 weekends away this month so it's going to be a challenge!
