        Mornin', Sassy and my other fellow Halloweenies!

        Did 40 minutes of circuit training and stretching and am now trying to convince myself to eat something. But I'm just not hungry! Maybe I'll choke down a cackleberry with a little mayo (in plain English: a hard-boiled egg ... I threw that in for Razzle )

        Have a very Atkins kind of day, y'all!

            Happy Tuesday everyone! How are you all doing today? How have you been at meeting those Halloween goals?

            I've been doing pretty well! Sticking to my diet plan, still not getting as much water as I should though. Gotta work on that...

            So anyone know what they're going to be as far as costumes go? I went to my local party supply store the other day and they have lots of fun costumes and accessories, it's so hard to choose! Are you a "buy a packaged costume" type, or prefer to make it yourself? I can't wait to see everyone's pics after the challenge is over! Maybe we should have a costume contest.

            Keep up the great work everyone, just over 6 weeks til Halloween!!

              Hi, Bunny! Been doing pretty well on the exercising and the water; counting the carbs via FitDay ... my "fat pants" are getting baggier every week

              Costumes! I like the homemade variety myself ... so much more creative and fun. I asked some of my chums on one of the digital art sites to give me ideas, and they came up with some doozies My husband and I used to go to this huge crazy street party in Tampa called Guavaween, and I always relished coming up with wild 'n crazy getups ... aliens, ghouls; stuff like that ;D Halloween is the best!

                I have no idea what I will come up with.. lol.. it's been so many years since I last did this.. I may have forgotten how to!

                I can sway either way in regards to making costumes or buying them.

                Wishing you all the best with your goals.



                UPDATE: min. of 72 flights - 4 Flights = 68 Flights Left!

                    Hey Cheers2you! To add the graphic, go to edit your signature and add this, no spaces though:

                      Good morning, fellow Halloweenies! Hope y'all are well and having a super day

                      Started off with an early morning workout at the gym , and then grabbed the mop and the vacuum cleaner and went to work on my house ... housework, pleh! But between the two, that that was a pretty good two-hour exercise session; I keep telling myself as I'm on my hands and knees cleaning the tub ... "Hey, this burns fat!" It helps take the sting out of something I actively dislike.

                      Well, gotta go guzzle some water ... see you folks later!

                        FLdoodette, as a fellow challenge member I want to support you in meeting your goals, so I feel it is my duty to offer my tub for you to clean. Heck, go for it and clean my whole bathroom if you like. I mean really, what are friends for?

                            Okay it's been a while since I've been on....hubs (gbidruglord) hogs the laptop and I only get it sometimes.
                            Okay so I've been doing good. I weighed myself this morning and I've gained 2 lbs....probably water...I'm still in ketosis.
                            I drink 100 to 110 ounces a day.
                            I take my vitamins every day.
                            And I am trying to exercise every day, but lately my allergies have practically crippled me in the mornings so I am trying.
                            Other than that, things are good!

                                Well so far so good! No cheats and I have actually been exercising every day and drinking way more then the 64 oz of water I pledged due to the super hot afternoons here. As for my weight I will know Saturday if I have lost this week (I'm keeping my fingers crossed)

                                I also started taking multivitamins again and in only 3 days I can definetly feel the difference since for the past week I have been having really bad leg cramps at night =(
