There is no need to feel self-conscious or justify your goals here. You choose how you make this work to help your progress. 0 -

I will stay within my calorie goal and not overindulge.
I will express my wellness mantra.
I will go for a walk this afternoon if I'm feeling better.
I will have more patience
I am expressing gratitude for a good month in the stock market. 116 months until retirement
Slug day, sat on the couch wallowing in my cold.
Expressed my wellness mantra but didn't work out.
Believe my lovely bride would say I didn't exhibit much patience.
Over my calorie goal for the day but not by much.
For today:
Will take it easy but have to get out of the house at some point.
I will express my wellness mantra.
I will stay within range of my calorie goal and beat the goal on average for the week.
I will have patience for my lovely bride who is only trying to help me when I'm sick.
I am expressing gratitude for the wonder of Halloween experienced by little kids. My wife handed out the candy and loved seeing the costumes and pure joy from the little ones.0 -

Decent day.
Slightly over my calorie goal but beat it on average for the week.
I lost 8.2# on the week but in perspective, 5.4# over the past three
Didn't work out, was a couch slug with a cold. For the week worked out 4:56 including 6.55 miles of walking.
I am expressing gratitude for the Over 50 Support group I was in the past several months. It was my first effort at peer support and while the group is much more focused on maintenance the experience was great.0 -
Hi everyone, I was looking for a boost and I found this group. So just for today:
1). No sweets unless it's fruit
2). Keep each macro within 5 percentage points
Have a great day, and thanks,
Joe0 -
JFT, 11/01 1. Stay within calorie goal 2. Walk the dogs 3. Get in 10k steps - no workout today 4. Pack for travel tomorrow
JFT 11/02
1. Stay close to maintenance calories - In SF for the next four days so will be having a lot of provided meals. Make good food and drink choices.
2. Well, it's finally raining here so I'm not sure about the 10k steps that I was planning on getting! I'll try to be as active as possible.

A new month is here - the month of November!! Its a month filled with temptations - thanksgiving day, with pies, etc., baking for christmas, etc. It is usually these 3 months (Oct-Dec) where I seem to gain weight. But this year will be different. I can enjoy the holiday, without gaining weight.
So for the month of november, these are my goals. I'm going to see if I can meet these goals.
Starting weight was 200.8 (before the 2lb gain over the weekend with grandkids here, but hoping those 2# will come off quickly). So for the month of November, I hope to end the month at 195.
Exercise 3-4 times a week, no matter how busy.
Keep a positive attitude!
Log on here everyday with my JFT commitments. It is what keeps me going!
Encourage at least 1 person every day. Studies have shown that when we encourage others, we actually help ourselves!
So what goals do you guys have for this month! I hope one of the goals is to continue to come here and post - as you guys keep me going as well!!
