November Weight Loss Challenge
 

Let's make a good push toward our weight loss goals before the holiday season makes everything more challenging.

Join the November Weight Loss Challenge to set your goal, track it, and meet it -- with the help of a supportive and encouraging group. All the goals will be compiled into a list. As each goal is met during the month, it gets turned RED in celebration.

This thread is for weight loss goals. For your exercise goals, check out our sister thread: November Exercise Challenge - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

I'll join for this month and see how it goes. Looking forward to getting back on track!

I'm setting a maintenance goal this month. Since I spent much of October around 88.0, it will feel like progress if I can keep my weight below 87.5 for much of this month.

November goal: maintain below 87.5kg, Weigh 20x

1: 87.2; 1/20

Hi Everyone! I'm trying to get back on track and get to a healthier weight. I check the scales a few times throughout the week, but my official weigh-in days are Fridays. So, I will update my weight then and pop in to chat throughout the week. :)

excuse my ignorance, but what's "NSV" ?

An NSV is a "non-scale victory" meaning an accomplishment not associated with weight.

thanks darius! :)

MrBadger: I had to ask about NSV, too. We use a lot of acronyms on 3FC (ha!), but most of them are easier to figure out than that one.

I had to scratch my head a bit for your "20x" but I figured it out in the end! :D

I had to ask about NSV too back when I first joined 3fc.

There definitely should be a glossary of acronyms somewhere. Some are very confusing. (NSV took me a while to figure out also)
I was hoping to be a little lower… tomorrow is hubby’s Bday so we’re going to be celebrating.. I’ll try not to over-do it and hopefully the scale won’t be that bad at the end of the weekend 🤞

I'm currently failing spectacularly, but I'm going to assume that today's scary number is a temporary glitch and not allow it to discourage me.
