I'm so sorry that I haven't updated. My personal life has sort of gone down the drain. I'm not watching what I eat, I've probably gained everything back and more and I'm just a mess. But I'm trying to take care of myself and get myself back to where I was but for now, I'm trying to gain my sanity.
Good luck to everyone! I'll definitely participate in the next challenge if there is one.
Ok ladies lets not worry about our slow losses or minor gains. We can do this! The best thing about us, is we are not quitters! We try month to month, even when we feel we're about to give up.. after a little time, we are at it again! We have almost a week until Halloween, and then we will start our new Holiday challenge.. a nice fresh start!
And for those of your who have lost the most, good for you as well! Keep up the great work!
Theheather.. welcome back! Dont leave us anymore even if you are flling off the wagon, dont leave us! We need you, and you need us!

Well, Im no where near my goal for this challenge, but my weight is now 227 so Im only down a pound since last week. I somehow have 7 more to go this week...HA!
I decided not to be disappointed about this and instead say IM DOWN A POUND SINCE LAST WEEK!!
On Wednesday I start a step class. Ive never done this before so Im super nervous about being the fat girl in the class....but I decided to jump way out of my comfort zone and do it anyway. Its only an hour a week and I figure it will get a little better every week.

Also remember the day after Halloween is the start of our new challenge. So if you feel like you need a fresh start, one is coming shortly!!
P.s. You are the best team I could have EVER asked for!
I found this about loving yourself more, and we deserve it!:
Here's something to try saying every day. Place it on your mirror. It always helps: "Look in the mirror and what do I see? A beautiful girl staring back at me!" "Oh wow!" I thought. Who could that be? [smile and say] "Oh! It's most definitely me!"
Keep a list of the things you love about your self or things you've done that if you saw someone else do them, you would love them. For instance, if you scored more in basketball, write it down, then eventually you can build up more pros, to help you know why to love yourself (if you're analytical)
Practice Metta meditation. It will help you love yourself and others more.
Do what you enjoy. If that is do go out anywhere, or with anyone. Make yourself happy.
Hi fellow vegans and vegetarians! I'm new to this challenge and I can't wait for Saturday to start the new one with you guys!

IRIS.. lol I have no clue what metta meditation is!! Thats so funny... umm but meditate anyways lol!!
HaALEY... I feel ya on the pickled eggs lol But tis true you will find new favs.
So girls I'm going to be a 'sexy' vampire for halloween... I bought a red and black corset type shirt, im going to wear black slacks and a black cape with a hoodie on it with fitted vampire teeth.
Oooooh~! Vegan vampire! That's cool!
It kind of reminds me of a vegan zombie I saw before (I think it was from PeTA...) It was all "Graaaaiiiiiiinnnnss!" T'was cute!
I'm going as a catgirl! I'm gonna wear my costume to school since it's only 7:30-11:15 due to finals. Black cats tend to give me good luck. Too bad I can't wear my ears at school. D:
We have almost a week until Halloween, and then we will start our new Holiday challenge.. a nice fresh start! 
Keep up the great work!
