But think I must have been high on somethin' when I made 146 my final goal. I'm not losing at 2 pounds a week all month anymore!
Literally laughing out loud when I read this. I really think I spend half my time in a daze also You're doing great though so keep it up!

I'm considering anchors tied to all food. Congrats on beginning the workouts again!

Jill - thanks again for starting this challenge! It's nice to come here and not read about the healthy grilled chicken someone made last night! I really do like some of the omni girls here and my friends in real life but it's nice to have like-minded people around
So - What's everyone thinking of doing for Halloween? Is anyone dressing up?

Not sure where I'm going to go but I really want to dress up as Magenta from the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I'm amping up the running this month so my legs will look okay in fishnets
I'm definitely dressing up - actually for day of the dead (nov. 2) we have a big parade in town so it should be really exciting! I don't know what I'm wearing yet.
DARBY.. good job on putting exercise back on your list! You can do it!
IRIS.. hopefully its a fluke! if not you can kick it in the butt, I know it!
Great job everyone!!
Heres what I have so far 1st weight is our beginning weight, and second weight is if I have recvd your mini-goal weight yet. I'll repost again tomorrow for everyone who is a lil late weighing in!
For Halloween the actual day I'm staying in I think. For The weekend before I have to go to a Halloween party but I do not want to dress up.
Does anyone have any low fat vegan Halloween treat recipe ideas? I'm vegan with no oil. When i go to the party I will be surrounded by stuff I can't eat, unless I bring a treat to share that I can have. So I'm thinking of cupcakes or something but I wonder how to decorate them without oily frosting. Hmmmm.
kierr-are you doing the McDougall plan? Sorry-I don't have any ideas for an oil free frosting. That's a tough one.
I don't have any Halloween plans. I can't remember the last time I dressed up. If I'm not mistaken, it was 1993 because I was in Korea and my roommate and I had a wild party on the roof of our apartment. That was fun.
kierr, have you checked out Fatfree Vegan? I don't think I'm allowed to include links here, but there were a lot of dessert ideas listed on the website.
all right, know what? assuming i HAVE gained 6lbs is a pretty darn good motivator, so I'm going with that and I'll check in on friday and see where I'm at. That means today i am starting October at 139.5 lbs.
btw, kierr, sorry i'm at a loss for oil-free recipes for frosting.
Im late joining the Halloween challenge but I decided I would anyway. Today I am 235, and by October 31st, I want to be 220.
I just started exercising and calorie counting this week so it should come off fast the first month.
Good luck everyone!

ERIN... Great to have you join!! 15 Lbs is alot to lose but we will be behind you the whole time! Remember a loss is a loss! You can do it!
Chickpea.. So sorry about your log ins! As soon as I saw you I was going to tell you we missed you! But sounds like
you've been here all along! My comp does that sometimes too SOOO frustrating!! Show that scale whos boss and get back down! It is hard
resisting vegan food when you know you can't actually have 'restaurant' food often. Totally understand!
Well girls I've been sick since Monday and eating soy icecream, ice pops, and soup all day so hopefully I wont gain. My throat hurts though so gotta have icecream lol I think I'll be fine, but we'll see.
OK EVERYONE TODAY IS YOUR LAST DAY FOR MINI-GOAL WEIGH IN.
I still need weigh ins for: TheHeather, Modjeska, DarkAngelJade, MissNewBooty, RDW1, and Sheila53. Also if anyone else would like to join, feel free. GO TEAM!
