    Hot chocolate.

    I'm going to reach goal and wear a fabulous dress for new years eve. Not hide behind my clothes (that will be a first).
  • My name is Chrissy

    my favorite fall food is homemade chili (my own recipe)

    I can't think of any fall activites, but I love this time of year when all the holidays are coming, families come together, and all the decorations go up. I love that kind of stuff.

    This year I'm looking forward to taking pictures with my family over the holidays without feeling gross and embarrassed in every picture. Part of that is just building my self-esteem and not just losing the weight.

    Hello Hello...my name is Lisa.

    Fall activities...getting ready for my son's 8th birthday in October and Halloween. WooHoo! My daughter is going to be have strabismus surgery this month.

    I'm looking forward to showing my colleagues, family, friends, and patients that I do practice what I preach and I plan on losing enough weight to be at 199 before the end of 2014.

    Pumpkin chai lattes are absolutely delicious.. but my aunts squash & carrot casserole takes the cake.

    Today I started school in my nursing program. I will probably be very busy but my goal is to exercise each and every day.

    I'm looking forward to losing another 15lbs by Christmas time (that is my goal!)

    I love homemade soups and chills in the fall

    I look forward to taking my pup on longer walks in the fall since it is so hot in Vegas in the summer we only get short walks in when the sun's down.

    I look forward to going home for the holidays and taking lots of pictures with my nieces and nephew (without having to worry as much about how I hold my body in each photo).

    Hi everyone!! My name is Kim.

    My favorite fall drink is a hot raspberry mocha latte from starbucks. I love fall because it's perfect weather for running! I love watching the leaves change. I also love going to football games with my boyfriend and watching it on tv. I love fall colors and the mums... I actually have a bunch coming up and getting ready to flower.

    My grandson started school today (preschool)... he's getting so big!

    Since it is raining now..i crave soups.

    Every weekend brings a new festival which means get togethers and feasts. So its basically a challenge to workout and to eat right.

    This year i want to leave the 70s. I have been stuck here for quite sometime. I want to have a healthy and strong body. I want to learn to be consistent which is my biggest fallout.

    Have any fall activates? Youmacon! It's an anime convention in my hometown. Not so much active, just a really cool thing to do.

    What are you looking forward to accomplishing this year? I'm running my first 5k in October!

    I'm back to work today after surgery, feeling really great. Gonna start running next week, back to kayaking the week after, then after that I can get back to boxing! :)

    Name or Nickname: Amanda (aka Mander or ARG)

    Favorite Fall foods or Drinks: I'm a huge fan of pumpkin bread and apple cider. I'm following a keto lifestyle though (as best I can) as I'll have to try and find some low carb subs. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

    Have any fall activates? I like in New England and love to walk around on fall evenings, purposefully going through piles of leaves. Not to mention, I love Halloween.

    What are you looking forward to accomplishing this year? At the end of this week, I'm running my first 5k. Really nervous but also excited. Who would have thought I would get this far? By the end of the year, I hope to have reached my current GW of 150 and to have some more strength in my arms.

    Let me just add, I'm excited to be here and hope this group will help me stay accountable and on track. :-)
