My challenging goals for October are:
* Release between 8 to 12 pounds that's 2 -3 pounds a week
* Exercise 4 to 5 days with increased intensity and time, cardio and strength training.
* Drink 1 gallon of water each day.
* Have green drinks, fruit smoothies, eat cleaner with more vegetables.
* No packaged, processed food or refined carbs
* Get adequate sleep
* Educate myself more about the body, health, and nutrition.
(God willing - I'm willing)
Everyone have a great and successful month!

Bjabdullah, I like your phrase, "release 8 - 12 lbs". If you release it, hopefully it won't return. However, when you lose you have the propensity to find it again and I'm definitely not trying to do that. So I stand corrected, I'm releasing 8 - 10 lbs in October.0

I need to challenge myself to be active on the weekends!
I am also participating in the 100 Mile October Challenge and while I did good in September I would like to see some consistency in my steps on the weekends - my daily goal steps is 13K and I would like to develop a way for me to get this on the weekends without planning.
October will also be a great month for me to expand my diet, I need to get ready for winter vegetables so trying new things this month is a must.
I am 4.8 pounds from my goal if I can get that down to 3.0 that would excellent!!!0 -

Happy Day Ladies!! I am new to the group and coming off a surgery 09.29, so my October goals will be conservative and hopefully consistent.
1. Be patient and heal from surgery by clean eating
2. Drink a minimum of 48 oz water per day
3. Get as much quality sleep as possible
4. Ease back into a low impact work out routine (at least 3 days strength)
