Monthly Review of Goals from October 2018

I feel like I accomplished a lot this month. I finally finished my sweater and now looking at making another one. I think I’m eating much slower thanks to the Naturally Slim program and I losing inches as well as some weight. I only have 2 ongoing goals that I need to work on still.
 .
