Joy, fantastic job! Whatever you are doing, keep it up!

PrairieQueen, I know Thanksgiving is going to get in the way for a few of us this month, but give it your best shot! There's still a chance you might make it!

Lucy, you're so close to goal! Keep going!

Leopardspots, on no longer being obese! What a great accomplishment! And it looks like you are running away from that obese number, lol! Keep up the great work!

HereIStand, having a range is the good part about maintenance. You have a chance to make the needed adjustments! I know you'll get that number down again! :

Shannon, congrats on the new decade! Great job!

GettinFit, I'm so envious of your cruise! I hope you have a wonderful time! And look how close you are to goal! You're doing great!

Raining, yay! You're just about to step into a new decade!

FSA/WB, I hope the weekend is going well for you so you can have a happy weigh-in on Monday! Oh, yes, leftovers are tempting, but we can do it, and you're going to make that Christmas goal! And do keep posting!

Keli, you are still right around the corner from that new decade! I know you can make it there again! Don't give up!

Jb1975, how are you doing? You were awfully close to goal the last time you checked in! Keep going!

I'm sorry I haven't posted the last couple of days. I have had a very rough week. I had to say a final goodbye to my cat on Friday and it's been so heartbreaking. I'm going to try to get back into the swing of posting daily now though. I do have some good news! I stepped on the scale this morning and I weigh 170. Changing my ticker, I just realized that I've lost 50 lbs!

Hi, and thanks for the welcome Gardenerjoy and Jaqui D. Today's weight 278. Seven pounds so far. So my goal for November now is 274. Sorry to hear about your cat Jaqui. I'm besotted with my little Georgie. Must be very hard for you. Hopefully won't be long before your grief turns into happy joyful memories.

Plain Jayne! Good luck!

HereIStand, thank you. Good job on making the decision to get strict with your diet. I hope you get an immediate drop on the scale for your efforts!

Fatbloke, thank you. It's been very hard, and I look forward to the tears passing and only the happy memories remaining. Great job on losing 7 lbs! That's fantastic!

Today I hit a new decade! I'm hoping I can keep it going and make goal before Thursday!
