    I have written this on a post-it note and stuck it in front of my TV so I can't forget this now.... :wink:

    For the first week of November's optional fitness challenge, I'll go with an old standby....

    100 squats a day, or 500 total for the week!

    With my in-laws descending upon me in three weeks, my focus is strong. I am in control and will remember to let that motivate me to make good food choices, instead of stressing me into old emotional food habits. This isn't for anyone but me.

    Focusing on those two concepts is my goal for this week. :)

    You can do it! Best of luck to you!

    This weeks challenge is to think what you can swap to be a lower calorie alternative and please post your findings! Eg swap creme fresh for cream, stew eating apples not cooking apples so you don't have to add sugar and see if this week you can wean yourself off sugar in your teas. And coffees. So good luck everyone and think thin. Zoe67

    I couldn't figure out how to just edit mypost so I had to repost. I'm not too good on this site yet. It took me two days to find "topics" lol so I could just find this thread again!
    I've been wanting to join a challenge!

    djfnjskadfnsdf OMG! Why can't I post when I have to like normal people? -_____- Ok I know I'm out of the challenge for posting my sw so late but I'm gonna keep updating if only to keep myself on track. Hope everyone's doing well.
    Name/ real name: Forgetregret/Cam

    Wasn't able to keep updating my weight every week on the last challenge but I did lose 5.5 pounds so I'm a happy girl. Hopefully I'll do better this month! Good luck everyone!

    Goal weight on November 30th: 124.5 (ufff the closer I get to my ultimate goal weight, the harder it gets. Stubborn pounds!)

    Fun! I guess that means no more starbucks for this week, then! I'll make my coffee at home with my coconut milk creamer instead. Thanks for the challenge.

    Starting P90X up Monday, count me in! I'm gonna bump it up a notch to 9 lbs (I think I'm retaining water weight, haven't been good about water the last week)

    Great idea Zoe. I swop butter for hommus on my salad sandwiches. I also this week swopped getting a taxi to walking to the railway station (33min walk) and then the bus for walking (27min). I also slipped my body off the couch on to the floor while watching the news and did 17mins of stretching etc. Whatever exercises I could think of from on the floor thats why such an add time of 17mins I ran out of ideas.:laugh:

    Thanks for starting this!! I like the mini goals/challenges. I am part of a bigger group as well, and do like little ones in between to keep me motivated. I usually weigh in on wednesdays, but I will use that weight for monday's number.

    I don't post the spreadsheet until after the weigh in this week. It will be posted on Tuesday afternoon.

    Took the kids to the zoo today. Walked, walked and walked some more!! My legs are sore and I am exhaused!! The kids are still full of beans though, wish I had their energy :smile:

    Looking forward to weigh in tomorrow (for a change :wink: ) I still need to work on my weekend diet and my evening eating habit, hmmm maybe I need to take up knitting or something, I just find it really hard not to snack once the kids are in bed and I finally get to relax :noway:

    Good luck with weigh in everyone :smile:
