Well my weight this morning is 227.7. I was 1. 6 pound shy from my goal but I think I did amazing! Listed above was my goal for October. I reached just about all of them. I lost 9lbs. Increased my water intake and walked 68 miles during the month of September. I did not get into a 16 but pretty close. I give it another month. I love these monthly challenges. Its better than any weight watchers meeting I have ever attended!

Missed my goal weight by 3 pounds but I did lose weight. Thanks for all the support and fun this last month. Looking forward to an October Challenge.
