September is a good month to get rid of a few inches or pounds before the holidays. Like it!!0

Great idea....the fall weather always makes me want to be outdoors, especially after this brutally hot summer☀️ I'm in1

Sounds like a good challenge.....ready!0

I'm totally in on this!! If you guys use fit bits I'd love do is to do the challenges there too! Im pushing to get 12 or 13k a day while my current challenge groups I'm being left in the dust with their 24k a day habits!1

Sounds great. Not sure if I want to dust off the old fit bit, or "step it up" in another way though....1

I am so in! Missed the one for August because I got started with keto so late. Been waiting for the September challenge thread. So what do we do @baconslave? I would like to lose 5 lbs this month. Will there be a special challenge thread? How do these things work?0

Yeah. Just like there is that August Basics weekly thread in the discussions and one in the stickie as an anchor to find the weekly thread if it gets buried on the second page.
I'll post the first weekly. In it you'll post your goals and how you are doing that week. You can do it daily or every other day or weekly. Whatever you want. In there we can ask advice and comment on each other and encourage.fancyroberts wrote: »ok I am tech ignorant....what is step it up? lol! ugh...
"Step it up":
Some people might go literal and try to increase step count (walking) or ramp up exercise frequency or intensity. Or someone has been letting good habits slide a little bit. Whatever it is in your life that needs "stepping up" your effort to improve your health and/or fitness.increase the amount, speed, or intensity of something.

Yeaaaah. I have no room to complain. It's 90 with the nasty hot-wet-blanket humidity. The humidity is terrible and oppressive, but I can't fathom low 110s. You win.

My sister lives in Houston. I do not envy her a bit.0 -
Yup, i'd love to be part of it. Coming out the other end of being ill for 4 months. I've managed to shed 24lb just by changing over to this new diet and light walking. Im now getting back in the swimming pool! I want to lose at least 4lb this month which might be hard as i'm still on 20mg of prednisolone. So please keep up the motivational posts and forgive any hunger rants I may throw in as these blimmin' steroids make you think you're about to die of starvation and the only solution is to eat the entire contents of the fridge!!! Bring it on!!!3

I'm in. I'm fairly new here. I currently am exercising 7 days a week, strength and treadmill 3 days, bike 9-16 miles 4 days. I used to walk, but living in southwest Florida, it was tough to keep it up this summer. Still thinking about what I'll be stepping up.1

I have moved and my steps are SERIOUSLY lacking now! I thought being further away from work would have increased my steps but the 30 minute walk to the gym in the mornings are gone now, so it has decreased my step count a lot.
Anyways, I am in!1 -
I'd like to join the challenge this month0

Ohhh...your sister in Houston has it WAY worse since she's on the coast the humidity there is awful. I used to go there for work a lot and hated how oppressing the weather is.0 -

I want to be you when I grow up....all that moving is inspiring! I'm such a lazy bum.1
