I'm so close to goal, just hope the upcoming Thanksgiving fests (yes, feasts with an s...doing 2 days of bug meals) 🤪doesn't derail me. I'm hoping I've learned a good amount of dedication and focus over the past 7 weeks to keep me on track. Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞

Spent all morning thinking that my weight last week was 157 and I'd have to point a gain. So glad I have a terrible memory!

Oct 22 - 124.8 I appear to be going backwards. Not surprising, since I went to a food festival yesterday.... Gotta remind myself that just because it's a "special occasion" or whatever excuse I want to use, doesn't mean I have to shove food into my pie hole like the Apocalypse is coming. This time of year has tons of "special occasions" and that mindset is not going to help matters.

Oct 29 - 120.4 I am not under any delusions that I've actually lost 4 lbs in a week. The previous number was an early-morning weigh-in after an evening of, if not exactly gluttony, certainly eating with abandon. My weight tends to fluctuate a lot, (in fact I'm up a pound and a half today from Monday's weigh in), so I just keep reminding myself to look at the trend rather than individual days' numbers. That's why I like challenges like this, so it keeps me looking at longer-term results rather than being disappointed with day-to-day fluctuations.


Nov 05 - 123.8 Still fluctuating like mad, but at least I'm down a pound from the previous weeks of mid-October. Hopefully it will be steadier now, but my will power this time of year is nil, and the holiday treats are already out and about! It also doesn't help that today is national donut day and my boss brought some in to celebrate!
Nov 12 - 124 Ugh. Some bad decisions this past week that I had hoped the weekend of not overdoing it would balance out. Alas, no. As frustrating as it is, it's good for me to see this so I can remind myself that my actions have consequences!

deepwoodslady

Female named Donna from the Midwest USA ….. 5’ 5” tall




Highest Weight Ever: 253 (2014/2015)
Original MFP starting Weight on this current journey: 235.0 (Jan 11, 2018)

Challenge Starting Weight: 174.0
Challenge Goal Weight: 154.5
Challenge Ending Weight: TBD

My Plan: To lose 1.5 pounds per week for 13 weeks (19.5 lbs total) and end at 154.5 on Christmas Eve Morn. Then I want to enjoy my Christmas Eve night with family, wake up on the 25th and listen for Santa’s sleigh bells. I will CAREFULLY enjoy myself between Christmas and New Years and reassess on January 1st and get busy with the final leg of my plan.

Final Goal: To weigh 145 by Valentine’s day.


DON’T FORGET TO SCHEDULE YOUR MAMMOGRAM!

Oct 01 - 174.0 And Away We Go! Good Luck Everyone. I don’t know what happened to the original person starting this challenge but I’m still in if you all are!

Oct 08 - 174.8

Oct 15 - 175.4 Oops I did it again.

Oct 22 - 177.8 Went to DBs to help him after surgery. Enjoyed big city with big food. Calories I controlled pretty well. Carbs got me badly. Next week I will attempt to post in the color red instead of the color green. I will be food prepping today!

Oct 29 - 177.0 I can’t believe I managed to pull off a small loss. I was up much higher this week after multiple traveling trips. I have gotten rid of the water retention I think, and now I can get down to the business of fat! My Mammogram and doctors appointments at the University Hospital turned out great. They did not detect any breast cancer so I am still in remission. I will see you all on November 5th!


Nov 05 - 177.2 Lots of travel this week. It won’t be pretty.
Nov 12 - 177.6 Okay, I warned everyone that it wouldn’t be pretty. I travelled 5 days this week and hit over 180 pounds! Getting back down to this by weigh-in day was a hard earned miracle. I am back home in my “safety zone” for a few days so it is slowily coming off as I stick to plan and drink debloating water. I hope everyone will have a great week!

Thanks @Spadhnik 😚 I’ll keep working hard on my weight and toning up/replacing fat with muscle so I’ll keep checking in each week.. with my height at 176cm I don’t want to go any lower than 65kg 👍

I'm very afraid to weigh-in. I went off the rails this week.
It's so great to see the progress this group has made!

jannylynn1

Starting late, new to this site, count me in! I've been running on my own for the same length of time, haven't really lost any weight only focused on endurance. I am ready to tame my meals.

feeling really great about my loss this week, it was a bit of a surprise to see that much gone, so I'll have to work to make sure it's a reality! Hope the scales are kind to everyone else this week too.
