    I love the Fall, but with it come all sorts of fall goodies to indulge in--and it sure isn't great for the weight loss enthusiast! So I prepose a Fall Weight Loss Challenge beginning October 1 and ending November 30th! Let's ease into the Holidays with a fresh new jumpstart!

    61 days and counting! Anyone game?

    If you are, just reply to this discussion board with your goal weight loss for the next two months and check in every Monday with your weeks results. Let's encourage one another on and check in every week with how we are all doing!

    I'll go first:

    Current weight: 143.8
    Goal loss per week is at 2lbs totalling 8 weeks= 16 lbs goal loss
    Goal weight by November 31=127.8

    Thanks for coming along! I can't wait to hear how everyone does!

    "This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever. In its place is something that you have left behind...Let it be something good." AUTHOR UNKNOWN

    Good evening. Would this be a challenge that could potentially be extended to Dec 31st?

    Yes, this is a very good possibility!! Maybe we will think about starting a new discussion board with a Winter Weight Loss Challenge---what are everyone's thoughts?

    ENCOURAGING WORD...

    “Can it be a mistake that ‘STRESSED’ is ‘DESSERTS’ spelled backwards?” ~Unknown

    This quote makes me laugh and cry every time I read it! I began this challenge as you all know (from my beginning statement) to not just lose weight and reach 'MY' goal, but to have a place where everyone could be encouraged along the way. Since the start of our Challenge on October 1st, I have barely lost anything, travel encroached on my plans in every possible way--where eating out was more of norm than, dessert became a nightly event, and exercise has been minimal at best.

    ENCOURAGING WORD CONTINUED...So today I begin again because I am refusing to give up! Life happens and choices are made, but I will stand on the truth that life will be far better at the end of this journey than when it started! I want to applaud you all for keeping on this narrow road that we've traveled together! Celebrate you today for making great choices! Monday begins our week six, so let's stay on track! P.s. No DESSERTS for me!

    This week was pretty awesome. I found it very easy to stay on track with food, I even had some difficulty eating enough food which is a first for me. This week is going to be tough as I have been given strict orders not to work out :'(

    6.6 lbs to go until my goal weight for this challenge!

    I am keeping my goal small for now since the month is almost over. I want to make sure it is attainable and if I am able to surpass my goal weight it will make the accomplishment that much sweeter
