After much thought I'm putting myself down for 6 lbs in November. That's 2 lbs less than normal due to having 4 separate Thanksgiving Dinners. Let the eating begin I guess!! That puts my goal weight at.... 191.

If, by some miracle I pull off 8 lbs that would totally put me at 189... holy cow!

Wow!! Congratulations, how did u lose so much weight?! I got down to 145 and felt great but somehow i ended up back to 165 and I'm having a hard time starting a workout regimen any tips or ideas ?

congratulations on your weight loss and your quitting smoking!!

Put me down for 4 lbs.

Hey everyone, this is my first monthly challenge. Just weighed myself at 192.5. I am going lose 10 lbs this month to 182.5. This may seem like a lot, but I'm starting a new program and my trainer said he's kicking it up a notch (as he did today, I practically died) so I'm up for the challenge!

ok ladies!!! I am throwing October away and just gonna get started on November!

Shasha!!! You rocked October!!

Tummygirl.....you are my new idol..... HOT!!!

To all the rest of you. I am back this month and back with a vengence.

I wanted to be at 239 by the 31st of October. Not happening. So, I am shooting for a big giant goal in November.

It sounds like a lot, butI am going back to my atkins roots. I splurged yesterday on carbs to try and trick my body. My goal is also to get up to 2 12 minute miles back to back on the treadmill........I know I can do it.

And.....to get A's on my next 4 exams. There is one every Tuesday.

Best wishes to you all.

Love and light to my peeps!!!

I haven't completely bailed on my October goal just yet. I at least made the water drinking one. I drank water like a fish in October!

I'm going to follow the trend and go for 8 pounds this month. I'll edit my post later to put my starting weight in on Sunday. I'm giving myself until the very last second of October to meet my goal, lol.

**Edit - Starting weight 170.6. Goal weight 162.

Hi Chickies! October was NOT my month. Too many activities, trip to Vegas, and house guests. I maintained, so I guess it could have been worse. I am going to amp up the exercise, and go for 7-10 lbs. I made it in July and August, so I can do it again! I am spending next week with Sandye, so I know that week will be totally OP! I'm not at all concerned about Thanksgiving. It's just one day, and I doubt there will be any leftover goodies. I'm doing all of the cooking, so I am going to make everything diet friendly. No brown sugar and butter on the sweet potatoes! Good luck chickies! Let's make wise choices this holiday season so we have a jump start on the New Year.

FSA ~ So good to see you. Hope to see a lot more of you this month

Okay, well...October has been a mixed bag for me and I'm ending the month by taking a break from exercise--period. Thought I would tough it out there at the end, but nope, I'll start up again on Monday.

My goals for November:

No more crazy weekend eating
I want to allow for one Off Plan day, that being Thanksgiving
I also want to get down to 130 (don't freak out mom--I promise I won't go to extremes!! ) so I have a little wiggle room.

I look forward to hangin' with you chickies again this month and I look forward to getting to know all the newbies!!!

Bring On November!!!!!

OK. Let's see...my first goal is to start drinking 8 glasses of water/day. The second goal is to lose 6.6 lbs to reach my target weight. The third goal is to get my butt back in the gym.

^_^ count me in!

Hope to lose 10 lbs by Dec 1 ~ 169 lbs
we will see :P

Okay, I'm taking Tummy's advide and will set my November goal at 135 and maintaining. I want to reach goal and enjoy that time. I won't totally slack afterward if I should reach it early, but I also don't want to feel like I'm never reaching goal and always resetting it lower. I NEED to feel the accomplishment and let myself feel good about it. I've had a really, REALLY hard time celebrating any of my goals recently. I don't know why. I'm happy about it, but there's SO little emotion in it right now. It's just life. SO weird. Anyway, here's to November!
