Only lost 2.8 lbs. last month, but I know I am back on track and will do better this month!!
I would love to be at least within spittin' distance of goal
10/20/14 ... I'm not in the 80s as I had wanted, but sometimes ish happens. I'm not going to quit, I'm going to continue to move forward, and just keep chugging along. Hoping everyone is doing well, I'll have to catch up with you all at some time. But right now, life is insanely crazy for me, and it's all I can do to stay sane. Talk soon
Life is the same way here But we do what we can and keep on going ... that's what I was thinking when I set up the November thread OH my goodness ... I love that BL challenge, that would be motivation for me also, Best of luck to you. You can do it Go Kukkie

Surprising, because I thought it'd be higher. I need to get myself in check, and fast. I need to spend some time menu planning so that I can get back in the habit of meal prepping.
Those numbers I don't want to see on the scale scare me also ... just the fact that a few extra off plan bites can make those unwanted number appear, smh. I too needed to get myself in check and I am hoping that it works this time. Let's do this Hope your eye is better now.

Rennie - I hope you're winning against the carbs today You can do it
GettinFit ... Onederland here you come
October just flew by ... I didn't win against the carbs. They continued to control me the rest of October, smh. However I decided yesterday that today would be my 100th restart. I am low carbing until Thanksgiving. I went over my Auntie's last weekend and she said you are still keeping that weight off. I replied I'm trying. Then she said one of my cousins is smaller than me, I said really. I texted my cousin and she looks great. She is doing what I did to get here and I said she will be my incentive to get the ball rolling again. So I hope that I can do it. I want to look great also

I set an ambitious goal and I won't be able to make it... but trying to keep my chin up and take the loss, that I will have at the end of the month, with a smile. I am happy about every ounce I shed!
You are doing great ... great job on the 240's ... on the 9.6lbs GONE

My mental state (lol) is doing much better. Work is still loads of stress and pressure, but FINALLY breaking through and seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Client goes live with the new system Jan 5th, so my holidays will be spent working in Dallas most of the time, will be home Christmas day and a few days after that.
I've been tracking periodically ... most days I'm rushing and before I know it I am fully dressed and I just so oh well I'll weigh in tomorrow. I haven't tracked my food in a long time ... that's why I can't lose ... but we'll get there Yay for better mental stats Yay us work work work
LGW, on 42lbs GONE

I ate my Nutri System breakfast! :-)
Great NSV ... way to go
I know I'm late but CaryCullen and to the thread ... glad to have you. You're with a great group here

Sometimes I fall into the trap of trying to do everything for everybody and forget about what I need to do for myself. This has reflected in a weight gain (up about 4 lbs!!), and I am so mad at myself right now.
However...I don't believe in starting over, just continuing on from where I am now. That is the only way I can get my head back in the right space.
So, as of now, I will be on plan, I will do what is best for me, and I will make choices that make me feel good about myself.
Sorry for the vent, but I feel better letting that all out.
Hope everyone is having a good week
Jude vent away ... that's the great thing about this group we pick each other up and keep it moving. You have a great mindset ... keep it going
on the 6.8lbs for the month
Mari and to the thread and on the 8.4lbs GONE for the month
Jenni on the 8.6lbs GONE and I hope you feel better soon
Mandy our cook ... on the 6lbs GONE
Beachy and CeeJay to the thread
Lindy good to see you
Donna, Candidcamster where are you?
I loss 3.2lbs in October and as usual I am up 1.2lbs today to 160 but today marks my start of a new (I hope). My plan is to lose about 6lbs this month wish me luck
Beachy it still amazes me how one meal can just ruin the scale number, smh. But just know that it's all temporary The carb flu is gonna hit me in a few days I'm sure, but I've gotta press my way through and you will too. I love potatoes prepared any kind of way .
Weigh in this morning 156.8, nice water whoosh . I had been coming home eating chips, peanut butter sandwiches, white rice, fries, toast, cereal, cookies, cup cakes and anything else starchy, smh. So one day without any of those things does a body good
229 this morning, which is a gain of 2 pounds this weekend. it was my own fault. Had cake and pizza Saturday (it was my bday so that's my excuse) and just ate too much in general. Oh well! Gotta get back on track now! My goal is to get out of the 220s by December.
Rin - I have a feeling I may have a jump up for today too. After running around on unexpected errands late afternoon into early evening I came home and didn't have time to cook a proper dinner before heading out to work (night shift). Unfortunately the bowl of leftover Halloween goodies in the hall by the front door GRABBED ME on my way through and I lost that battle badly.
Oh well, nothing to do but continue on the straight and narrow from here - losing the battle doesn't mean we've lost the war
Beachy - I have to stay away from carbs, those evil little devils do me in every time!
