I thought this thread was going to be about the toys. Those I haven't seen anywhere near me.

I thought it was going to be too lol! The only set I've seen was the Cadance, Shining Armor, Flurry heart set at a Walmart.

I was able to get both brushable sets on Amazon for my wife for Christmas.

No sign of the DVD though

Spoke too soon.
The DVD is on Amazon- only through 3rd party sellers. But that means it exists somewhere for people to be buying it!

I have never been interested in her....until right now! I kind of hate when that happens 

Why cant I stop discovering new ponies to add to my wishlist!? 

So sorry to hear about your SIL C_G. Will definitely send up some prayers <3

Healthy Pony wise I've been doing alright. Been able to maintain my weightloss, theres been some ups and downs but Im at a good place right now. Just really hoping Christmas doesnt throw me off *too* much.

I still have to finish my Monthy Jungle stitch along- ASAP. Its a Christmas gift for my neice and I also need time to wash and frame it...but Ive been procrastinating SO MUCH. I have to finish it tonight or tomorrow at the latest. I dont even own a frame for it yet... Maybe I should stop spending so much time on the Arena and go do that...

So far Ive been able to maintain my weightloss through Thanksgiving! I know Christmas will be a lot more challenging- our customers at work tend to bombard us with desserts and treats as gifts. It will take a lot of self control to not over indulge.
Then the 23rd is my anniversary and we'll have large decadant family meals on the 24th and 25th. So I'll have to wake up on the 26th fully determined to get back on track! But with a successful thanksgiving (I let myself induge for the day of and day after on leftovers) I feel confident I can make it through

What can you accomplish in 3 months? (I've only got 8 weeks left as of my start day!)
- lose ~15lbs (at *LEAST* 10lbs)
- exercise 2-3x/week
- set up 2+ gaming dates
- finish my small stitch project, catch up on my monthly stitch along, continue on my other project.
- practice Italian at least 4 days/week

Lets see how I did!?

-I lost the 10lbs, and Ive decided that while it'd be wonderful to lose another 11 that Id rather focus on maintaining my current weight long term (I've lost 64lbs over the last 7months)
-Ive been exercising 1-2x per week, which is better than zero!
-Been to 7 gaming meetups. Going to a new one tonight, and another on Sunday.
-Finished my small stitch, caught up (this morning) on my monthly, but minimal progress on my one other project.
-Been on a 46 day duolingo streak!

Overall, Im really proud and impressed with myself. I was skeptical that setting goals and making a list would have any real impact on my productivity but it clearly really has! Im looking forward to seeing where Im at with these goals as well as new ones when Healthy Pony starts up again in the new year!
Huge thanks to CG for being a phenomenal host, and a huge shout out to my amazing partner who has been really supportive and attentive and motivating 

Yikes! Only 5 days left!
Ive fallen behind on my goals this past week.
Will have to dedicate myself to working on my cross stitching tomorrow, I should be able to complete the November block before our deadline.
No additional weightloss, but I'm happy with the progress Ive made. With the Holidays coming up, its important to be realistic!

- I'm officially down 10lbs! With 2 weeks left I don't think I'll hit 15 but I should be able to make more progress
- Most weeks I've been able to exercise 2x, Im hoping to ramp that up to 3x
- I have attended 5 gaming dates!
- Small stitch finished, caught up on my monthly (until the new pattern releases tomorrow but I'll get that done)
- Been practicing Italian every day!

Healthy pony has been amazingly helpful in keeping me on track!
I have never had written down goals before so I never experienced how helpful it can be to have a system of accountability like this!
