    My Name is Donna. I am 60 years old and I live in the Midwest USA. I am 5’ 5” tall. My relapse in my weight loss journey started last November (2019) so I am here to make sure my situation does not get worse as we enter another season that is laden with many food-filled holidays. Most challenges weigh daily or weekly. I will experiment with weighing intermittently during this challenge.

    My highest weight: 253
    Highest weight on MFP: 235
    Weight on Aug 20, 2020 (Challenge start): 209.5
    Goal: 194.5 by January 1st 2020


    I am starting this challenge late.


    October 18: 208.2 My weight went up overnight. Too much bread.
    October 21: 206.2 Wow! Proud of my changes but it will likely level off soon on my scale.

    October 27: 210.4 Travel Yesterday. I wasn’t going to post today but I just want to face my truth. I also want to share that the struggle is real. We are in this together folks! Today I will try for a great healthy day!

    November 3: 207.6 Better than last time but I am still not making the best choices.

    November 5: 206.6 Happy with the downward trend. Let’s hope I can keep my fat trap shut and only open it for healthy food!

    Original Start Weight: 234 pounds
    Challenge Start Weight (August 21): 198.2 pounds
    Revised Challenge Goal Weight: 184 pounds
    Weight Today: 188.4 pounds

    I'm glad to be out of the 190s. It took me three months to lose ten pounds. That's not bad, but I was growing tired of seeing 19x on the scale. Woohoo!!!

    Pizza is the worst and by the worst I mean delicious, ha ha, though I can walk by one and gain 4 pounds, no joke.

    Earlier: This is still very exciting to be in 154’s!
    OMG 153’s!!!
    2 weeks ago yep- always get hungry in the 153’s.
    Working to turn it around...

    1 week ago It should start coming down soon - always a delay in both directions :)

    11/15/2020 Nope it’s trending up - time for me to trim calories regardless of exercise calories to 2000-2099 per day.

    11/19/20. Got serous in calories, it’s moving in the right direction. Basically without planning g it, I slashed carbs & appetite went away & my calories dropped. Crazy.


    Intrigued to see where this 2nd journey will take me 💐
