For the month of September @DanceDiva234 made a wonderful discussion where we could all share our goals. I would love to continue this into October and keep our motivation up into the fall. So, would you please join me in posting and tracking your goals throughout the month?

My heaviest was 165 and lightest was 115. I've been on an upward swing for the past several months where it seems like I can't control myself when it comes to food! I'm looking forward to having some gal pals for mutual encouragement along the way back to not busting through the seams of my clothing.3 -

We learn something even on the bad days / weeks. All of it moves us forward even if we can't see it yet. We "will" get there!

My other goal is to work out more regularly. A main issue why I don't lose weight is because lack of exercise. Hope everyone does well! Just remember, baby steps lead to great accomplishments. Be a doer, not a thinker.

I'm also somewhat new to MFP and am looking for some accountability partners. I log my food most days and do regular weigh-ins. Friend me if you're interested in keeping each other accountable for our October goals!1 -

I need to make a HABIT of exercise and eating well, for the rest of my life!

CW 142
GW 135 with some muscle built for carrying groceries up to the apartment, honestly
October goal - Hit 140 or lower and stick to 6 workouts of both cardio and strength and 1 yoga/stretch/rest workout each week + celebrate 50 daily workouts (including the yoga) on October 25th!1 -
Yesterday was good! I had a workout when I usually wouldn't (I'm a Mon-Fri gal usually) and tracked my food. Not a super low cal day, but I had lots of energy and a good mood from the workout and am pumped I actually tracked! (I have become so lazy about tracking). Small steps!1

I'm definitely in! Love the group support and personal goals! Feel free to add me as a friend1

Thanks for continuing, i didn't do so well during September.
My goal for October is to lose 2 or 3 pounds and to drink broth after dinner for a snack instead of having a mocha decaf.....or two.1 -
I didn't hit my September goal, but here's to happy October.
Height: 5'7"
CW: 175.3
Oct GW: 169.7 (-5.5lbs)
Ultimate GW: 160 or less
I'm also tracking my measurements (neck, bicep, chest, waist, hips, butt, thigh (upper and mid), and calf). I used to go to Curves with my mom as a teenager and I remember even when the scale didn't budge too much, losing all those inches was really good motivation.
I only lost a few pounds in September, but I lost over 8" total, mostly off my chest, waist, hips, and thighs (yay!!!).
So here's to October's goals: Lose 5.5lbs, at least 5 more inches! To accomplish this, I'll keep up with my 3x weekly strength training, spin class at least once per week, Pilates and/or yoga once per week, and 4x walks per week that include at least 10 minutes of running. Now that the weather is finally starting to cool off in South GA, it's going to be so much easier to run outside again!!!
Good luck, everyone!2
