    Fourth weight in:

    10/1
    > 180.1
    10/8
    > 179.6
    10/15---> 177.8
    10/22---> 176.5
    10/29--->

    October weight loss --> 3.6

    I have 1 week to lose 1.4 lbs. I will be honest, I have not been pushing myself to work out!! I know I could be losing so much more if I gave at least an hour a day .. So, my goal this week is to work out 60 min a day and burn, burn, burn those calories!!!

    Also, Great job to everyone!!!! Its been a great month for all of us!!!!

    Hey everyone!

    I completed my first day of Fruit and Vege JUICING! It wasnt too bad (YET) because I was at home and there are very little distractions. Has anyone else done a Fruit and Vege Juice fast for a reboot?? Or has anyone incorporated it into their daily routine for the health benefits? Im interested to hear some feedback

    Uggh, In the past week, I have gained and lost back 7 pounds of water weight. Frustrating, I am very sodium sensitive, not to mention carbs, so when I get off balance it takes a bit to get back. But, still 3 pounds down this month. Here is hoping that I can get 2 more off this week.

    Gained a pound last week. Lost it this.

    I hope to finish the month at my starting weight or less. But no gaining!

    Well first pound LOST in over 2 months! Now to get back to where i was and beyond! Iv been using my elliptical and its been awesome. I didn't use it this weekend because of work though.

    I have a ton of work today ( clean out my garage, store some things in it and clean my whole house ) and then Im planning a walk for tomorrow since Im going to wach house and desperate housewives tonight after dinner and spend some time with my hubby. Hopefully Ill get a little bit of calorie burn by packing all the crap in and out of the truck and packing other stuff back into the garage.

    Are we going to carry this thread on over November?
    I am struggling to find any challenges for next month, so it would be nice to stick with this one :)

    Wow jen busy busy lives lol. haha it will never end. I just wanted to say great job on the positive attitude! I would be sooo stressed if it were me

    Thanks! Life is too short to be upset about stuff you can't change, right?!?!

    I didn't weigh in yet, I kept very busy this weekend and forgot all about it this morning...
    However, I did buy my Halloween Costume online and it just came. In a size SMALL! Yep, you read that right. I have never been able to wear a small anything and it fits me well. I'm not going to be concerned with all the reviews saying they are sized on the large side, I'm just enjoying it! :devil: It's a super short skirt tho, why would a female super hero not dress more practical? Just saying… doesn’t seem like sensible crime fighting gear to me. But I’m going to rock it anyway (and wear little shorts under in case the wind kicks up!) lol

    Have a great day boys and girls!
    -Jenn

    ps Evelyngrice, Terry posts this topic each month, fear not! :flowerforyou:

    Okay here's a run-down of my progress this month! Sorry I've been MIA... it's just taking me a while to get back into the swing of things!


    09/23/2011- 186.4 (This is where I jumped ship)
    10/16/2011- 184.4
    10/18/2011- 182.6
    10/20/2011- 181.6
    10/22/2011- 181.4.
    10/25/2011- 180.2

    So... I've made my 5 lb goal for this month, but I still have 4 lbs more to make the goal I set for myself this month, so we'll see if I can pull it off! The only reason I have any hope is because I have some water weight that SHOULD come off after TOM leaves the premises :)

    I'm trying very hard not to overeat today... The last few days have been tough, and I feel like I've been "feeding the cold"... All I want is comfort food when I'm feeling crappy, and that is not helping the scale any. :grumble:
