The last couple of months were a mess for me! I feel like I am starting fresh with a whole outlook.

My goals for September goals are:

1. To lose 10lbs (that gets me just under where I was in June)
2. to stick with the weekly challenges from the challenge group I joined. (who knows where that will bring me!)
3. To stick to my macros & increase my protein & veggies

    A fresh start is great, Lisa!

    I'm going to try for the following for September:

    1. Lose 5 pounds
    2. Run 40 miles
    3. Continue lifting three days per week

    I'm going to be working a lot of overtime in September so it's going to be a real challenge for me to stay consistent.

    September Goals:
    1. Stick within my caloric limit
    2. Lose 4 pounds (start slow)
    3. Swim 3 times a week and bike once each weekend
    4. Stay positive if this plan stumbles

    Ok, since we've started this -- I haven't made 1 month work. I WILL IN SEPTEMBER!

    1. Walk//Jog 50 miles
    2. Log every day
    3. Check in here at least 4x a week (I find you all keep me honest!)
    4. Lose 4 lbs



    Lisa, good luck with the group challenges! I've seen them around and they look good -- let us know how it goes!

    2. Strength training two to three days each week
    3. Log every day

    1. Log foods and exercise daily
    2. Meditate in the mornings daily
    3. Practice restorative / gentle yoga 3x a week
    4. Walk a mile 2x a week
    5. Continue daily devotionals

    Just added my miles to date - 28; so I should be able to make the 50 miles. Worried about #4 and 4 lbs lost, but I'll be working at it!

    I know I'm late to this, but here's a goal I don't think I could do for the full month anyway (lol): no alcohol until October.
    Heh heh. Go big or go home.

    This was not my best month. I stuck with the challenge group, all but one week. I didn't lose any weight though. Maybe 2lbs. :cry: Oh well. Better then gaining. I have increased my veggies but I am having a hard time increasing protein with the calories allotment I have given myself. Oh well.. Moving on to October & keeping at it!

    Lisa, it was a learning month. Cook up chicken on Sunday night and have it in the fridge to pick on all week - it's a great protein go to food item. I bake mine in chicken broth with salt and pepper and it's great. Keep at it -- you'll get it to work!!!
