Okay, now that I have done my final weigh-in for the previous month, I am updating this post! I will be staying with my usual goal of about 10 lbs, but I'm going to round it up just a smidge to 10.4 lbs, so I have an even number for my goal of 222...that will finally put me back below where I was before this summer's move that threw me off the rails, and I will FINALLY feel like I am getting a fresh start back on track. It's sad that it will be the end of November before I'm back where I was back in MAY, but at least I will be back where I started and ready to keep moving down to break this 220s curse, lol.

Eep! Okay, count me in. Four pounds for the month of November, from 149ish to 145ish. I'm a bit apprehensive--just spend the summer/early fall maintaining so nervous about trying to lose again. But I want to get back into things!

Count me in! I'm currently at 139 and would like to lose 5lbs to be at 134. This is a bit ambitious but it should be doable as I'm juicing for lunch for my november weekdays.

139.2 this morning. I'm pretty sure I'll be seeing 138s tomorrow if I eat well tonight since I'll be running for a couple miles in addition to my 1hr cardio class.
Edit: I didn't workout as long as anticipated and had French fries and fried food for dinner but am still hoping to see the 138s

I'm in - I need to kick back into gear. I'm going to up the challenge for myself - this month I'd like to loss 8.2 pounds. This would put me at 195 and I can't remember the last time I saw 195 on the scale.

SW: 203.2
CW: 203.2
GW: 195

goal -8.2

Glad to see everyone starting to come back for November!

---------------------------------------

My first weigh-in was a whoosh to 230.4, but I barely drank any water yesterday, so I think I may be a little dehydrated! (Expecting a bit of a bump back up tomorrow, but hope not!) I was surprised to see a drop considering we always have pizza on Halloween, and I had 4 slices...they were smaller, but it's still FOUR slices...lol. I was careful with the candy, though, and only had one fun-size Snickers Almond bar all night for Halloween. I think skipping lunch in preparation for it helped a little, too. Now to continue to be as careful with this sudden MOUNTAIN of candy we have in the house, that's the challenge. I've even given out several gift bags of the best candies to the neighbors, and we still have a ton!

How was everyone else's Halloween?

Good luck everyone!!

ophelia Forgive me, you have answered this before... I believe you are calorie counting with IF, what is your calorie range that you try to stick to? I have been weighing my food on a scale and measuring everything the past few days and have been surprised to see my calorie intake is so high, but the scale is moving down. I have been obsessed with oatmeal lately and the way I make it brings the calories up to 600, but it tastes SO good and keeps me full!
