November Challenge :)
I hope this is ok for me to start!  I saw the October Challenge thread and wanted to get it going for November!
Here are the guidelines as posted for the October Challenge:
- *Remember* to only post once on the first page so that we can all get in at the top. This makes it easier to keep tabs on eachother.
- Please re-read that last one, some people don't get it.
- edit your first post all month so we can all keep tabs on eachother.
- after October 3rd we will continue posting at the bottom for encouragement and fun.
- write your "best" that you want to beat.
- good luck and have fun with it!

By November 31, I want:
1) to have perfect compliance (or more perfect than last month)
2) weigh 125 pounds by the end of the month
3) work out 5 times a week for 1/2 hour
4) No binging
I don't know my current weight and haven't been able to work out as I've been out of town, but tomorrow (NOV 4) the challenge begins.
Nov 1: S DAY + BINGE
2: SUCCESS

My goals are pretty much the same as Kwonset.
Strict NoS, and upkeep of my HabitCal's, with occasional check in's here if needed.
I gained about five pounds back of my 11 lost in the past few weeks, mostly over this weekend. I hope to lose it all back again and hopefully a few additional more.
Have a great month all!
