    October start weight: 279

    Previous Week's weight: 271
    Today's Weight: 268.2

    Almost three pounds gone and into the 60's!!! Well done!! You must have figured out a way to feel fuller, or to live with that feeling of hunger!!!

    Thanks @HASWLRS
    It’s good to be in the 60s! This feels like it’s taking forever but I seem to be consistently losing about 2ish pounds every week, which is fantastic. If I can keep it up I’ll be at my for real goal weight of 225 by March. Regarding hunger, I’ve upped my carbs and protein a smidge. Seems to be working so far :)

    @HASWLRS a few days late getting back on the Halloween decorations.

    Puppy and I walked 2 miles in our quest to find 10 homes decorated for Halloween. Then we had 2 miles to walk home. We have a new construction area that was finished this summer and most homes are now occupied. I have a feeling that this is where we will go to see Christmas decorations as 7 of the 15 homes had Halloween decorations up.

    weigh in October week 4
    Weigh in day Saturday
    last week: 129.4
    this week: 130.2

    TOTM again so probably not helping my numbers much. However I also didn't eat as well as I should have so I'm sure that plays a part too. At least it wasn't a huge gain.
    Heading of to band competition next week and only junk stadium food so not sure how bad that will be for the next few weigh ins. Have 2 competitions one in San Antonio on the 3rd and one in Indy on the 9th - yikes!!

    Sorry you lost your streak....you'll just have to start a new one!! You probably feel better if you have been limiting the pop and the junk food; you just ate too much of the good stuff to lose weight. A little less of it next week and the scales will change direction for you!!

    Hey, we all have bad months....no need to apologize!! You are only up a couple of pounds for October, so one good week in November and that will all be gone!!

    @lesockie, the November Challenge officially starts on Sunday, November 4th. So, next week sometime there will be a November registration thread. Look for it, then post your starting weight and preferred weigh-in day. You will then be assigned to a team.

    Results for October Week #4

    Coming in as the Biggest Loser for Week #4, and thanking "the flu" in her acceptance speech, is our very own @Tracie_Lord, losing 4.04% of her body weight. Congratulations Tracie!! Coming in second overall, and thanking "her broken scale" in her acceptance speech, is our very own @Reanna143, losing 3.52% of her body weight. Congratulations, Steffy!!

    We had five Big Butts who had a terrific week and lost over 1% of their body weight. Well done to:

    @Tracie_Lord - 4.04%
    @Reanna143 - 3.52%
    @xr8_kiwi - 1.81%
    @bizgirl26 - 1.65%
    @mikea2g - 1.03%

    As a team we came third, losing 0.47%. Haven't placed in the top three in a while, so I thought it was worth mentioning!!
