I posted the following on the 200+ board on WW!
October at the scale was not good but overall it was a good month. I celebrated one year on program and I also learned that my cholesterol level was entirely normal. My new doctor just reduced my blood-pressure medication again and hopes to continue reducing it. I also bought a new size 14 winter coat which my mom just pointed out is already a bit looser than when I bought it! At the 6-week point on Body-for-Life, I had lost 1.75 inches on my hips and 1.75 inches on my waist although the scale was not reflecting that. I didn't meet my SWLC challenge but overall I think I ate very healthily, and I also got in 1750 activity minutes to meet my challenge.
I found some areas to focus on for November. They are:
-double-checking all my points values and ensuring I am calculating appropriately
-continuing to journal everything
-work on evening eating keeping it to a small snack only and nothing after 8:30 p.m.
-making really healthy food choices
-my SWLC is set for 10 lbs which is high but I have 5 WI's and think I'm due at the scale to see some movement. I really want to be under 210 by the end of the month and still working on getting to Onederland by New Years
-1750 activity minutes for this month
-visualizing myself meeting my Onederland goal
-challenging all negative self-talk and encouraging positive self-talk to help meet goals
So that's where I am. To manage my November goals, I am going to post on the Being Accountable thread each day as well as the Cuisine Chronicles.
