    Looks like I'm in the winner's circle this month.

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, about 90 minutes between the gym and outside. A huge storm moved through the area today (tornado watch and flash floods), so I mostly exercised indoors. My town rescheduled Halloween for Saturday, Nov. 2.

    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

    Happy Halloween! Welcome to the opening of Eating Season!

    My office building goes crazy at Halloween with candy and treats everywhere for days. This year I was determined not to fall into the corporate calorie frenzy. (as I have every year before...) I came up with a brilliant plan and made my biometrics blood testing appointment for tomorrow morning. It worked! Not a bite of junk has passed these lips.

    Super pics! @lalabank & @lrsirius

    Exercise - not much
    Calories - yes
    Tracking - compulsive.

    2 out of 3 is not bad. I still have a most of a week before I am good to really exercise. Until then I can slow-walk. Yawn.

    See you all in November!

    Yes x3 today even with some Halloween candy.
    Since I started on Sept 22 I've lost 9lbs, feeling so motivated to keep going :)

    @lalabank what a great photo! You guys look goooood, and your house does too!

    Congrats again to all those who made it to the Winners Circle! Fantastic job!

    Yes x 3 for me today. Didn't even bat an eye at those halloween treats.

    Finishing out October on a great note personally. I had 4 pass days but I'm still down another pound on the scale and an improvement in bf% (can't give you an exact number because it slides around and I haven't figured it out totally, but there's a downward trend and that's what counts).

    No x 3

    I didn't exercise and I ate at least 1,000 in candy.
    My wife didn't bat an eye at it.

    Congratulations to the winners.
    Buddy and his siblings came over to trick or treat.
    Heh! They were all dressed as soccer players.

    Buddy was laughing, laughing, laughing.
    He only walks when he has someone to help with his balance. With his Mom as helper he was walking all over the place just laughing. He was telling his mom and siblings, "this is my happy place!"
    He took them to the dining table and in his one word vocabulary "this is where Grandpa Bob gives me my favorite food."
    He took them to the kitchen stove, "This is where Grandpa cooks it for me."
    He took them to the living room, "this is where we wrestle and play."
    Exuberant expression of joy.
    My wife's interpretation.
    "He really loves you."
    A day to remember.
