Hi, All!

This is a follow on from the October 2015 Weight Loss Challenge. It works the same way: You set your own goals, then weigh in each week. (Feel free to change the weigh-ins to suit your own schedule.) Everyone is welcome, no matter what your goals may be. You don't need to have done the October challenge to join in November. (In fact, you can join at any time.)

You will copy the form below, and paste it in a new reply, adding your own information. Each week you will update in another new reply.

So, here goes:

It seems when ever I try to stick to a strict regimen, even for only 3 days, the cravings are more. I had some spicy pretzels that I made this morning for a fund raiser and need to get them OUT OF MY HOUSE! Success - I have gotten up early every morning to do my workout and then go for a run or walk.
