    61 years old; 5'2"
    Original starting weight - 158.5 (12/30/2018)
    September 30 ending weight 148.0 (September gain 0.7 lbs)
    October starting weight - 147.0

    I have found Monday (M), Wednesday (W), Friday (F) weigh-in accountability works best for me. I've pinned the weekly weigh-in days for the challenge.

    📌 1st - 147.0 (Trend Weight 147.4)

    October Loss ~

    Thoughts: Here we go! As much as I believe in BIG goals, and would love to see a 5lb drop in a month, the weight is simply not coming off at that rate. I'm leaving the 5lb goal there for motivation, but I've added an intermediate goal of 2lbs. That is absolutely doable with consistency and discipline. Good luck everyone!

    October Game Plan & Goals: (Use stats from Fitbit 7 Day Summary)
    • Move to 2-week meal plans - Need to start writing them down
    • Log meals & exercise daily in MFP
    • Focus on daily 500 calorie deficit goal
    • No calorie intake after 8pm.
    • No calorie intake before 11am, edging towards noon for a 16:8 IF
    • Hit Fitbit step goal of 5000 - 2836 ⬇
    • Hit active minutes goal of 20 minutes daily - 32 ⬆
    • Hit strength training goal of 3 days on & 1 rest day

    Strength Training:
    Squats, lunges, push-ups (elevated), arm circles, side bends, & tricep lifts. Adding planks and transitioning regular push-ups to scapula push-ups.
    • 10/1-4 - 50, 50, 50, Rest
    • 10/5-8 - 50, 50, 50, Rest
    • 10/9-12 - 50, 50, 50, Rest
    • 10/13-16 - 50, 50, 50, Rest
    • 10/17-20 - 50, 50, 50, Rest
    • 10/21-24 - 50, 50, 50, Rest
    • 10/25-28 - 50, 50, 50, Rest
    • 10/29-31 - 50, 50, 50, Rest 11/1

    Typically weigh in when I'm in the mood, but am going to try to stick to Tues and Fri. Seems like twice a week makes me stay more accountable!
