October Targets
I thought I'd get your monthly targets thread going, being that it's the 2nd and I, personally, need a lot of help in this area right now! lol! 
Please forgive me for jumping in with both feet so quickly after coming here to 3FC's. I'm in desperate need of goals and accountability right now. I've been in such a fog for the last month, I just have to snap out of it. *sigh*
Okay, so here are my targets:
~ Get down to 135
~ Exercise at least 3 times per week (I struggle with consistency in this area!)
~ Lights out no later than 1 a.m. (midnight is better!)
~ Drink only water after my one glass of ice tea in the morning
I'd better stop there. This will be challenging enough for me, I'm sure.
Good luck, friends. And thank you for allowing me to keep your 'targets' thread going. 
Alyssa

Well, I feel like giving up because I haven't lost anymore weight in the last 2 months. But, my goal is to to to 159 by the end of the month. Not a lot, but something reasonable that I can achieve.

Don't give up LVY...hang in there. It sure is a tough road.
My Goals for October are to:
Okay, so here are my targets:
~ Lose 6 pounds
~ Exercise at least 3 times per week (I too struggle with consistency in this area!)
~ Not eat after 8 pm
- track what I eat each meal and try to make one better choice each day when it comes to eating.
OK.. that's it it's on paper now to get focused.

Hiya everybody 
i am fairly new to this forum, but browsing through threads helps heaps to become encouraged already!
My targets for this month:
- try to continue walking every day for 40 -60 minutes. (Can be here challenging, especially, if we have storm and horizontal rain)
-stick to my diet plan
I hope I can furthermore get more focused on my family and things I like to do instead of being so over-focused on losing weight and eating the wrong things.

1. Lose 8 pounds, bringing me down to 254.
2. Exercise every second day for 30 minutes, no excuses!!

I'm getting in on the thread late, too. Wow! We have a lot of new people since I was last here. I had to take a hiatus for the summer, but I have maintained at 200-ish since I was last here. Now it's time to get going again.
For you new chicks, keep on going. If I can do it, anyone can. When I first started out on Feb. 20, 2010, I couldn't walk around the block wihthout stopping for a break and being in severe pain. Since then, I have been bicycling a little bit and just did a 6-mile round trip hike up and down one of the mountains in Yellowstone National Park last weekend.
So, now that I've tooted my own exercise horn, it's time for me to throw out some goals.
1. Eat clean. No restaurant food, no "junk", lots of veggies. Weigh and measure all my food again instead of guessing.
2. Keep a food journal. Every bite, every day.
3. Get some exercise every day, even if it's just walking in the house with a video.
4. Find some time every day for a mental health break. Take a few minutes to relax and reflect. Work at keeping a positive attitude.
I'm gonna copy this and email it to myself so I can print it and keep it up on the fridge or coffee pot or something.

I printed out my goals and have stuck to them so far for food. The exercise is not so much. Didn't walk or bike at all for 2 of the days, but I did walk 2.92 miles on the dam dirt road yesterday. I had guessed it was about 2 miles and I was off by that .92 when I mapped the distance, so it was a bonus.
Watching the Broncos game today after I breakfast the guests, then will go for a walk after. No football snaxks here. Yaay me!
