Whatcha wanna do in November?
So, I'm wondering about next month and what we should do as our month-long group challenge. What I like about the step challenge is that it keeps us mindful to move more, which is so important. But it also helps us to remember to come into this group and post our steps. And in doing so we get a chance to share and support each other, which is what makes the Slimpossibles an awesome group to be in!
Soooo in November, we could...
1. Continue with the step challenge. I can keep on recording your steps and bugging you when you forget.
2. Walking distance challenge. This is basically the step challenge only you would post your distances instead of steps. It could be fun! For instance, right now I'm at 3.84 miles for the day. Surely I could get to 4 miles before bed. How many miles could I walk in a month?
3. Or, you can give me an awesome idea and we could try that! This is your group and I want us to do something that will help us reach our goals.
I will keep track of your answers and we will find out the November challenge on 11/1!

@TeresaW1020 I like either the steps or distance. It does make me check in way more often so I can get my steps counted. And speaking of steps....

@Kres567 great job staying under!
You all are doing amazing at steps, I wish I had a Fitbit or there was a way for my exercise to count too!

Water over
5 for 90
1. Exercise 30 minutes a day- definitely did!
2. Gym 3xs a week- went today
3. Social media- did good, was busy all day. Checked in here.
4. Decluttering- nothing today, did a lot yesterday
5. Trigger foods- overall a good day
I'm curious, when you decided to change your health what is something you discovered food-wise? I ate vegetables but not a variety or as much. I made brussel sprouts earlier this year and fell in love. I'd just bought some today and was making a quick stop at Trader Joe's. They had brussel sprouts on the stalk, I've always wanted to buy one so I did! I've been researching how to cook the stalk! Other item would be dried beans and legumes.1 -

Hey everyone, back from my long weekend 'holiday'!
It being a holiday, all the triggers figured. But it's a reminder that my body in recovery will take knocks more easily.
Calories Fri-Mon: red, green, red, red.
Weight fluctuation: up from 153 to 156lbs, must be lots of water weight, and my scar hurts from stretching. I think some good clean living this week will help.
1. Time - nice to have some time off to relax and see friends.
2. Exercise - steps Fri - Mon: 12431, 5842 (and that was the green day?!!), 11954, 12079
3. hydration, mostly managed.
4. Trigger food - I figured alcohol was going to cause me pain, unless I drank so much I could just fall alseep. That sort of worked. It's a one-off though. Back to abstinence!
5. Yays - did really well in my live audition. Wait and see if I get the call now. Celebrated with cheesecake. I know, I know!3 -

@TeresaW1020 I like the step challenge. I would like to see the month steps and then try to beat myself.
My gym is also having 30 day challenge in November where you have to go in once a day for 30 mins for 30 days. So essentially exercise 30 mins a day. It can even he stretching. So I'll be doing that too. Hoping to win some prizes lol.2 -

I will probably keep it as a step challenge for November. Everyone is used to posting their steps. Hey, I also really like your 30 days, 30-minute challenge for November. I could open that up too and see if anyone wants to add that to their daily step count?
