April goal: be more intentional so I can end the month lighter than where I start:
- more intentional movement throughout the day
- plan meals ahead
4/1 - 190.8 Going to try a run today after some yoga stretches; haven't ran for a week so fingers crossed my calf muscles have improved. Dinner: beef roast and veg. Update: ran 10min, legs started cramping so walked 5, ran 5, walked 5, ran 5. Total 20m run, and I'm ok with that.
4/2 - 190.8 Updated with yesterday's run info. Today planning on a walk, will run again tomorrow.
4/3 - 190.6 ran 10, walked 5, ran 10, walked 5, ran 5; total 25m run. Feeling much better in the calves since I'm not running two days straight. Sometimes I forget my age...

My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 60 years old and from the Midwest USA.
Starting Weight (from March 31st): 208.2
Goal: 203.2 (Five lb Loss)
04/01 – 207.6 Off to a better start! Good luck this round everyone! Remember to have some fun too!
04/02 - 207.6 I definitely made some extra sacrifices yesterday so I’m a little disappointed to see no change. I guess I will just have to trust the process.
04/03 - 208.6 I am beginning to feel that I may be lactose intolerant based on how bloated I feel after eating cheese or drinking a glass of milk. I will be watching this. Up one full pound after a grilled cheese for dinner that made me feel miserable and pregnant.
04/04 - 207.6 That is better. No milk yesterday and no cheese.
04/05 - 206.6 Watching the dairy by weaning down.

Daily weighing keeps me accountable, prevents me from a few extra snacks the night before, and shows trends of perhaps what to avoid or limit in order to succeed at weight loss.
WEEK ONE:
Thursday 4/1: 132.3 - It would be great to touch the 120s this month
Friday 4/2: 133.8 - wrong direction
Saturday 4/3: 133.7 - Expecting a woosh, feeling lean today, I had thought that the scale would have been kinder today : - )
WEEK TWO:
4/4: 133.1 - Not exactly the woosh back to the 131s that I was getting last month, but I will stay at it.

04/07 - 205.6 Down 3 pounds in 3 days. Of course I am getting over 20,000 steps per day with the yardwork which is very helpful but weaning down on the dairy may really be making a difference. I’m going to double-down on those efforts!

@deepwoodslady
Somebody said that our bodies burn our fat in our sleep. 3.5 hours does not seem like enough. And no more milk I guess.
Do you like Almond Milk or Oat Milk? They have more nutrients.
I just began having 1/4 cup of Granola with 1/4 cup of Vanilla no sugar Oat milk. Quite filling and healthy. I know that 1/4 cup does not sound like much, but it actually is very satisfying. Not too many calories.1 -

- run 3x/week and walk the other days
4/1 T - 190.8 Going to try a run today after some yoga stretches; haven't ran for a week so fingers crossed my calf muscles have improved. Dinner: beef roast and veg. Update: ran 10min, legs started cramping so walked 5, ran 5, walked 5, ran 5. Total 20m run, and I'm ok with that.
4/2 F - 190.8 Updated with yesterday's run info. Today planning on a walk, will run again tomorrow.
4/3 S - 190.6 ran 10, walked 5, ran 10, walked 5, ran 5; total 25m run. Feeling much better in the calves since I'm not running two days straight. Sometimes I forget my age...
4/4 S - 193.8 ugh Chinese from Friday hit
4/5 M - 190.6 3 rounds of 10min runs, felt good. Egg & avocado for dinner.
4/6 T - 188.2 walk today, planning to run again Thursday. Beef roast & broccoli salad.
4/7 W - 188.2 walking with the dogs today, loving the beautiful weather! dinner is egg/avo/salsa
4/8 T - 186.4 surprised at this number but not holding my breath that it'll stick around tomorrow. I really pushed water yesterday, made good food choices; will do the same today. Planning a run today of 3 rounds of 10m along with walking the dogs in between rain spells. Dinner is beef roast and veg.

Daily weighing keeps me accountable, prevents me from a few extra snacks the night before, and shows trends of perhaps what to avoid or limit in order to succeed at weight loss.
WEEK ONE:
Thursday 4/1: 132.3 - It would be great to touch the 120s this month
Friday 4/2: 133.8 - wrong direction
Saturday 4/3: 133.7 - Expecting a woosh, feeling lean today, I had thought that the scale would have been kinder today : - )
WEEK TWO:
4/4: 133.1 - Not exactly the woosh back to the 131s that I was getting last month, but I will stay at it.
4/5:
4/6: 134.3 - No reason for this gain.
4/7: 133.7 - I have been steadfast, but my schedule is going to be turned upside down today so I will need a new strategy.
4/8: 132.6 - Almost back to my start weight for the month.
