Hello all! I am going to give this a try. I have been actively watching my CICO for almost 2 years. In the spring I started eating gluten free-ish (about 95%) to help alleviate symptoms from hashimoto's. I started Dec 1, 2019 at 231.0 lbs. I am a 38 year old mom of two who "loves" to run half marathons.
11/1: 203.4 lbs - 20 days out from my half marathon and no motivation to train.
11/2: 202.6 lbs - yesterday was a good day eating wise but not much exercise.
11/3: 202.4 lbs - I was able to get in a run yesterday and my husband made an awesome GF lasagna. good day all around!
11/4: 202.2 lbs - Not much activity yesterday but I kept my calories in line.
11/5: 201.6 lbs - I weighed in much later today which is probably most of the decrease. I ran 2 miles yesterday. I am 2 weeks out from my half marathon and couldn't do my last long run last weekend bc I was sick. So I broke my 12 miler over today and tomorrow. I ran 6 this afternoon and will run 6 tomorrow morning. I am eating gluten today bc Chick-fil-A chicken tenders sounded way too good after my run but I only ate half my fries bc I was full. Have a great weekend all!!
11/6: 202.0 lbs - I expected the increase due to the Chick-fil-A. I was only able to get in 3 miles this morning. I haven't eaten well today but stayed within my calories.
11/7: 201.8 lbs - not great for eating today. We will see what happens to the scale tomorrow.
11/8: DNW - I had to run out to the school bc my daughter forgot her glasses, so I did not weigh in. Happy Monday everyone!!
11/9: 202.8 lbs - I've been under calories everyday... frustrating but just the way it goes.
11/10: 202.0 lbs - I've been eating fairly well but not wanting to be active.
11/11: 202.0 lbs - happy thursday!
11/12: 200.6 lbs - I'm sure this loss will rebound a little. I weighed in late and did not eat much yesterday.
11/13: 200.6 lbs
11/14: 201.8 lbs
11/15: 202.2 lbs
11/16: 201.6 lbs - I ran a quick 2 miler yesterday. I am 5 days out from my half marathon and now it is time for the obsessive checking of the weather forecast. Ha!
11/17: 202.4 lbs - 4 days out current temps should be in the low 50s with 25% chance of rain.....
11/18: DNW
11/19: 201.0 lbs - 2 DAYS from half marathon!!! I'm now on to the hourly forecast. We are now up to mid 50s with 50% chance of rain.
11/20: 201.0 lbs. Picked up my packet for the race tomorrow. Super nervous!!!
11/21: 202.0 lbs - The half marathon went really well! I got a PR! My knees had been feeling a little twingy, so my husband helped me KT tape them and I had no pain!
11/22: 201.8 lbs - I think this weight is a lot of water weight form swelling after running yesterday. I'm going to have a donut this morning then back to normal eating!6 -
Height: 5'5"
Highest Weight: 174.0 lbs (6/7/21)
Challenge Starting Weight: 164.8 lbs
Challenge Goal: 147 lbs (healthy BMI)
Ultimate Goal: 130 lbs
November 1st Weight: 164.8 lbs
November Goal: 159 lbs
---November thoughts: Hi everyone! I lost about 10 lbs. in the last challenge, so while not a crazy amount, it definitely was motivational for me! I like the idea of a 3 month goal as it allows some room for flexibility and adjustments, but not so much that you feel like you can slack. And with it being the holidays, I'll need to stay balanced more than ever and remember that a holiday is a holiday, not a holiweek.---
I set my challenge goal for 147 lbs, which would put me at a healthy BMI again. I felt so fantastic in the 140s last year and can't wait to get back. But first, we gotta hit the 150s! So that's my goal for this month! Then I figured I'd give myself the other two months to lose the next 10 lbs, which I figure is more flexible with the holidays in case I have weeks where I only manage to maintain.
11/1: 164.8 lbs
11/8/21: 164.2 lbs
11/15/21: 164.6 lbs
11/22/21: 165.2 lbs
I really wanted a big push this week, but after going to a wedding this weekend and general bad eating last week, I'm grateful to be where I'm at. However, I joined a 10 day challenge and am pushing myself to track my calories every day and I think it will really help turn things around! I'm nervous for Thanksgiving, but I am keeping my mantra strong that it's just 1 day and that if I listen to and trust my body, I will be a-okay!8 -

Actual : 230.5 : 2.5 pounds in 3 weeks (0.8 lbs/week)
Last year, I set a goal of losing 100 pounds in a year. This past July, I had managed to lose 90+ pounds to get into the 230's. There, I've been... until this past week. I finally dipped below 230 last Thursday, when I weighed 229.5. Friday and Saturday, I weighed 230.4, then Sunday I weighed 229. This morning, I weighed 228.6! Knock on wood, but I think I've made it, and hopefully, I'll keep going. 😀
(230.5, my posted weight above is a 7-day average)14 -
November to January 31, 2022.
I'm continuing from the last challenge. I lost 6 pounds. My goal is to keep moving toward a plant-based eating plan and ultimately get my weight into a BMI of 22-23 or about 125-128 pounds. This Challenge Start Weight: 144.5 Challenge Goal: 135
11/1 - 144.5
11/8 -144 (- 0.5)
11/15 - 144 (same)
11/22 - 143.5 (snore... There’s a rock on my desk that says “Patience”!) I can tell the weight lifting is working. Clothes fit better. Realized last night that I am stronger at 70 than I was at 50. Focus on the wins!

Hello Everyone--This week was a bit more challenging with birthday parties, but I’m still happy with my choices. My son requested crab legs for his dinner, which I ate more than my share (but it’s low calorie, so I happily indulged). I also made his cake using six inch cake pans instead of my usual nine inch pans—I like the smaller size so much, I will use these for many birthdays to come! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Happy with the results…..worked hard & walked lots of KM. Had a couple of really high calories days as I bought Winegums and ate almost a KG of them in 24hrs!!
Old habits die hard….but awareness and a desire to change is key for me to succeed on my journey.
Way to go everyone👍😊
Have a wonderful week!

My name is Donna and I am 61 years old. I live in the Midwest of the USA. 5' 5" tall. My starting weight was 253. I have relapsed in the past year and need to get back on track. I am type 2 diabetic and in remission for breast cancer. Health is my #1 priority.
Thank you @RubyRed427 for starting another challenge.
Start Weight: 188.2 (Weight on Oct 31, 2021)
Goal Weight: 173.2
End Weight: xxxxx
Short term goal: To lose about 5 pounds per month.
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s
Nov 01…..189.4…..(Trend Weight: 187.7)…..What a horrid way to start the month. Pizza and Halloween candy were present but not to blame. It’s on me.
Nov 03…..189.0…..(Trend Weight: 187.9)….. Weight down a touch, but trending up. Good news on my surgery results. No sign of breast cancer in the surgical tissue lumpectomy. So it looks like I may be around awhile folks! Today is my daughter’s 27th birthday who lives with me. There will be festivities, food, cake, ice cream etc. So many reasons to double celebrate today for us! Tomorrow, back on track! Snow again here today. Outside too cold but I will try to get my steps in the house around the renovation men. The tile project should be done by tonight. Another week or two of men working and I will get a break until after New Years. I can’t wait!
Nov 10…..189.6…..(Trend Weight: 188.6)…..I’ve been eating horribly since I found out I needed the surgery. The surgery is over but the bingeing hasn’t stopped. It’s time to get myself back in control. This is counter-productive!
Nov 17…..189.8…..(Trend Weight: 189.4)….. I almost convinced myself that I’d made some extra positive changes to my diet. Then I weighed myself this morning and after some investigation and reflection….Not really. Not enough anyway. I’m going to work on a better upcoming week. I’m running out of options for better health. There’s no way around exercise and you can’t outrun the fork. Gotta do it the old fashioned way and stop thinking I can outsmart the experts!
Nov 24…..189.6…..(Trend Weight: 189.2)….. I am not doing well in every possible way. Mentally, physically, emotionally. I’ve got to get a grip. Losing site of my own health is not helping anyone else who needs me right now.

Nov 24…..…..189.6…..(Trend Weight: 189.2)….. I don’t know how I missed a week (above), yet I don’t know how I didn’t. I’ve recently been informed that my brother is dying with end stage cirrhosis of the Liver. He has been an alcoholic most of his life. He is 54. Me losing control helps no one. I’ve got to get myself, my emotions, my physical needs in order. Many people need me. I started injection diabetic medication today to go with my pills. Hopefully that helps my glucose numbers which are running over 400 right now. Please Pray for Jeff in Michigan.
Nov 30…..…..(Trend Weight: xxxxx)…..
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

I am in on this. Just have to do the conversion: Aus we use metric 15lbs = 6.8kg. This is a great idea Thank you 6

I'm Michelle, 50, 5'5. Currently 159, started 2021 at 185, looking to lose 5 pounds in this current challenge.
Nov 1 159
Nov 8 158.5
Nov 15 160.6
Nov 21 161
Nov 25 160
I upped my calories a couple weeks ago and saw the scale bounce around a ton but seems to be settling down around 160 again, phew.

My name is Donna and I am 61 years old. I live in the Midwest of the USA. 5' 5" tall. My starting weight was 253. I have relapsed in the past year and need to get back on track. I am type 2 diabetic and in remission for breast cancer. Health is my #1 priority.
Thank you @RubyRed427 for starting another challenge.
Start Weight: 188.2 (Weight on Oct 31, 2021)
Goal Weight: 173.2
End Weight: xxxxx
Short term goal: To lose about 5 pounds per month.
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)

Nov 01…..189.4…..(Trend Weight: 187.7)…..What a horrid way to start the month. Pizza and Halloween candy were present but not to blame. It’s on me.
Nov 03…..189.0…..(Trend Weight: 187.9)….. Weight down a touch, but trending up. Good news on my surgery results. No sign of breast cancer in the surgical tissue lumpectomy. So it looks like I may be around awhile folks! Today is my daughter’s 27th birthday who lives with me. There will be festivities, food, cake, ice cream etc. So many reasons to double celebrate today for us! Tomorrow, back on track! Snow again here today. Outside too cold but I will try to get my steps in the house around the renovation men. The tile project should be done by tonight. Another week or two of men working and I will get a break until after New Years. I can’t wait!
Nov 10…..189.6…..(Trend Weight: 188.6)…..I’ve been eating horribly since I found out I needed the surgery. The surgery is over but the bingeing hasn’t stopped. It’s time to get myself back in control. This is counter-productive!
Nov 17…..189.8…..(Trend Weight: 189.4)….. I almost convinced myself that I’d made some extra positive changes to my diet. Then I weighed myself this morning and after some investigation and reflection….Not really. Not enough anyway. I’m going to work on a better upcoming week. I’m running out of options for better health. There’s no way around exercise and you can’t outrun the fork. Gotta do it the old fashioned way and stop thinking I can outsmart the experts!
Nov 24…..189.6…..(Trend Weight: 189.2)….. I am not doing well in every possible way. Mentally, physically, emotionally. I’ve got to get a grip. Losing site of my own health is not helping anyone else who needs me right now.
Donna, it's hard to prioritize yourself when things get hard but you have to put on your own oxygen mask first so you can be there for others. Much support to you. If there's anything you need, or just to vent, we are here.

I checked my weight today and I'm still the same, I'm assuming there won't be a lot of changes tomorrow.
Nov 18 - 176
I'm losing hope and feeling disappointed with my progress. It's a vicious cycle. I haven't been doing very well lately and I really want to change that. I'm sick of this, but I don't want to give up, I will try to achieve the goal weight of 160 by Jan. I promise myself this.

There have been ups and downs past week. But this is what I weigh when I checked in the morning today. Let's see if I can get to 172 next week!!!
