Default What are your goals for november?

As far as diet and working out are concerned? October has been a bad month for me. THe weekends totally messed up my plans and always seem to require much more planning. I think that if I stay on plan 100% on weekends it would be nothing for me to lose ten lbs in a month but its so challenging for me. So for november my goals are

1) No eating out period
2) workout at least one day on weekend.

What are yours?

I said this last month, but definitely be regular with my weight lifting! I need to be toned while I lose, so I wont be too saggy. I gotta find a way to fit that in!
I also struggle with weekends. Actually, Friday night is a real struggle for me to work out because its family night, there is no cooking and everyone is ready to watch the movie. It is hard to put in my hour on when everyone is relaxing! And then I tell myself I will make it up on Saturday, but hardly ever do!

So my goals are:
1.) Regular weight lifting Tues, Thurs and Saturday
2.) Commit to Friday night work out

Great post!

lnoelparis, why don't you make friday your rest day? No guilt; everyone needs to rest periodically.

Just wondering...is "never" eating out in November realistic? It might be, but it is a holiday month.

My goal for November is to lose something. And to keep perspective during Thanksgiving.

I signed up for a 5K that takes place on Thanksgiving morning. My goal is to run at least part of it, which is way ahead of where I'll be with last year's goal to participate in that event. Last year I decided to sleep in instead of getting my butt to the starting line.

My goal for November is to exercise 6 times a week, alternating circuit training and the C25K program. For food, I'm going to try and eat on plan 75% of the time (22/30 days).

1. Three days a week walk/jog intervals, 2 days alternate exercise (a video/class/etc)
2. Try something new! I hate ruts. I'm thinking Zumba.
3. Twotopia. I know it exists! I want as close as physically possible...dare I say there.
4. Scale back Thanksgiving. I'm cooking so shouldn't be hard, but it's a huge event in my family. It's only a matter of time before my brothers start requesting cheesecakes!
5. Log my calories EVERY DAY. The good and the not so good (see #4).
