    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:

    Successes/struggles this week:

    Week 1: Good start to month but afraid it won't last. Currently on travel visiting friends and doing all those things you do when out having fun. Nonetheless, cutting back on a few things hoping that will keep the weight in check. Good practice for those future maintenance days I guess.
