October is my mulligan...

First and foremost (ripping off the bandaid), the bad news is that I only lost one pound in October. Yikes! I know you are not supposed to say "only" because a pound lost is a pound lost. And for that, I am thankful. If I had worked hard for this pound, then I would be thrilled! But you all know with all of my vacations and Halloween, etc., I have spent a lot of time off the wagon this month. That's okay and I'm not beating myself up about it, but that is why I am only one pound down. Time to pay the piper!!

 

HOWEVER, there is a lot of good news too. That one pound took me out of Class 2 obesity and into Class 1. That is a nice goal to reach! Also, I lost 7 inches on my body this month, including 2.5" on my bust, 1.5" on my waist and over a half inch on each upper arm. So, I'm tightening up and getting smaller which is the real goal anyway. Also...2nd 5K! :) I attached a picture from the race. I'm getting stronger and increasing my stamina, so that's great!

November, here I come!!

It's great that you can keep it all in perspective. After all, one month, in the big picture, is practically a moment in time and not something to beat yourself up over. The great news is that you enjoyed your vacation and the holiday without setting yourself back a few pounds and now you'll get back on track and move forward again. You're doing great and you've set a great example for those of us who follow a few steps behind.
