    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.

    April starting weight: 190.8 oh dear Lord:#:(
    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...
    4/4 - 193.8 ugh Chinese from Friday hit
    4/5 - 190.6 3 rounds of 10min runs, felt good. Egg & avocado for dinner.
    4/6 - 188.2 walk today, planning to run again Thursday. Egg/avo/salsa for dinner to keep working on water bloat from Chinese last week.

    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!
    04/08 - 207.6 Two pounds overnight means something else is affecting my weight. I ate healthy but a little too late and close to bedtime. Fell asleep early and woke up after 3.5 hours completely done with sleeping. An early weigh-in. One glass of milk, no cheese.

    Thanks @nikkit321
    :):)

    I am Dawn. 60, 5'2"
    MFP Start weight Oct 28.18 - 191
    UGW 110-115-ish
    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
    4/9
    4/10

    WEEK THREE:
    4/11
    4/12
    4/13
    4/14
    4/15
    4/16
    4/17

    WEEK FOUR:

    4/19
    4/20
    4/21
    4/22
    4/23
    4/24

    WEEK FIVE:

    @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.
