    Sunday is my weigh-in day: Today: 178.5 lbs. Lost 2.5 lbs this week, though I've been working at it for two more.
    Goal to end of the month: making it down to 173 lbs!

    No Xmas parties this month. No birthdays. Thanksgiving was last month. Totally do-able with the right amount of exercises and restraint at the table.

    Sunday was my weigh in day too and I was 85.8kg (189lb). So I lost 1.5kg (just over 3lb) this week.

    Hope I can continue to lose well for this challenge! :)

    Don't know about the rest of the world but in nz it's 5+ a day month - so everyone should try eat at least 5 servings of fruit and veggies per day!
    (Easier for me cos I'm veggie)

    Ha ha, great thread! Unfortunately, I only have 3 lbs more to go! I'll join if you start another challenge after Xmas. Since I'm sure I'm going to put on a lot of weight by the end of the holidays! Ha ha..

    All the best to everyone!

    I am in!!! I am 140.8lbs now & at a plateau!!! 5lbs for Nov seems reasonable.

    Aim:
    1) workout 6 days a week
    2) Avoid Rice
    3) switch to green tea in afternoons or if I have regular tea, no snacks!!!

    Ah, well, with the Halloween hangover, my October results ended up as a 1 pound gain... :blushing:

    Back at it today, my Nov 1st starting weight is 149, so my goal for Dec 1st is 144 (or less, of course!). I will need to put some serious effort forth this month, as I have been 'coasting' for a few months now.
