January Joy!

Starting Weight – 219.8
January 31st Goal Weight – 211.8 = 2lb loss per week for January
End Of Year Goal – 150.1

Daily Plan:
Daily Calories = 1600
Exercise + Daily Activity Calories = avg 500
Control Night Eating – be diligent, aware and self-respecting


Jan 1 – 219.8
Jan 2 – 216.4 (because of “control night eating” )
Jan 3 – 216.4
Jan 4 – 216.4 – again. My body will do this – I will be very exact on my plan so to “reward” me, it hangs on to the same weight for a few days...just to make sure I’m sick enough of being this weight I guess...the next day or two should be a good difference.
Jan 5 – 216.4 – ….I’m cutting calories from 1600 to 1400.

Hello Everyone from before and Newbies!
I'm Mary 64, 5'4" from Pennsylvania. My goal is to get back down AGAIN to 122 lbs. Kept it off for about 5 years and then got lazy. My body just stores Carbs too easily. I work long hours and exercise on my 3 off days/week, making up for my 4 work days. I started this challenge in November and will continue through December and January. Great group of motivating members! Thank you Jill! My goal is 5 lbs for January. My other goal is 15 lbs for Nov, Dec and Jan. Welcome back everyone! JOIN US!

January goals: minimize processed food and lose 1 pound a week. I weighed in at 1.6 pounds over yesterday's weight, but I'm pretty sure it's water weight from too much salty popcorn last night.

Highest weight: 185
Current weight: 155
January weight lost so far:

January 01: 156.0
January 02: 155.6
January 03: 155.6
January 04: 156.4 While I was under my calorie goal yesterday, I ate too much processed food in an attempt to get it out of my house as fast as possible and was way over on my sodium intake. I hate to just throw it all away, but maybe that is what I need to do.
January 05: 156.0
January 06:156.0
January 07: 156.8 Arthritis flared so badly yesterday that I got in 0 minutes of exercise and just sat on the couch all evening eating homemade vegan pizza and suffering. Shame, shame, shame......it's a little better today.

Highest Weight: 172
Most of adult life I was between 145-150. Went back to school 6 years ago to change jobs. Weight crept on then. It has been a yo-yo cycle since going from 157-170. This time I’m focusing more on it being about healthy living with the perk of weight lose instead of being all about the number on the scale. My diet can be horrible, tons of unhealthy junk (chips and candy) and processed foods I’m trying to eliminate as many processed foods as possible.

January 1: 167.2
January 2: 166
January 3:164.4
January 4:163.6 Number is good but I’m more impressed and proud that I have had no junk food and minimal processed foods 😁

January 5: 162.4 a pound a day is ridiculous 😳 but I am eating my calories and I don’t feel hungry. I guess this is what happens when you don’t eat chips and pop every night. I have also been staying away from rice, pasta and bread. Feeling good and energized so I will carry on.

January 6: 162.6 Ate within calories, my cardio has been minimal the past couple of days. Going to do a big workout today.

January 7:161.8 wasn’t a “big” workout but it did the trick 8km treadmill jog and hill climb 58 min

January 3—214.5 - well - that's a number I never want to see again. Let's do this!
January 4—213
January 5— 213.4 - had sushi last night. Hit my exercise goal, plus 10,000 steps and only 1 glass of wine - so I think it's the sodium.
January 6—212.7 workout done
January 7— 213.4 - hmm - I see some tweaks I need to make

Happy new year everyone! I’m Athena. I am loving these challenges, they are helping me stay motivated!

My goal for this month is to start to focus on my physical activity, this is where I struggle the most. I plan to wake up and go to the gym on weekdays every morning for 45 minutes and occasionally do classes in the afternoon. I’ll also continue to push to only eat out on weekends/on holidays. I am going to try to lose 4 pounds each month.

Highest weight: 165
End of month goal: 155
Current weight: 159

January 1 - 159 (went out)
January 2 - 159 (went out)
January 3 - Whoops! (home cooked/ walked 45 minutes)
January 4 - 157 (went out/ walked, jogged 45 minutes)
January 5 - 156 (home cooked/ walked 45 min.)
January 6 - 157 (home cooked/ walked, jogged 45 min.)
January 7 - 157 (home cooked/ walked 45 min.)

Completed my exercise goal for the week! I ate out one extra day than I was supposed to, but portion controlled it. I’ll be eating out tomorrow and plan to eat a lot so will likely undo my progress, but plan to bounce back quickly. Considering working out on the weekend too. Also got some really cute workout outfits which is making me more exited to keep at it.

January Goals: Log Daily, Move More, Lower BMI Out of Obese Range

January 1 - 185.4
January 2 - 184.3 (Down 1.1)
Today is day 1 of the YWA January "Move" practice, looking forward to the next 30 days of yoga!
January 3 - 183.2 (Down 1.1)
Happy to see the loss after making cheese fondue last night...just kept my portion small-ish but was still able to enjoy the treat with my family. That's my current way of eating plan...anything but in moderation. I've been very restrictive with my eating in the past and for me it is not sustainable.
January 4 - 181.4 (Down 1.8)
Yesterday's yoga was called "Open" and I definitely felt more open after it, especially in my neck and shoulders which hold a lot of tension. Will definitely bookmark this one to do again as needed.
January 5 - 181.1 (Down .3)
Feeling a little sore today, but it's a good sore. Happy to be more active again after having to take a workout break since November due to a running injury. Not going to focus on all the fitness that has been lost in the last 2 months but instead focus on being grateful that my body has healed, and I can start to rebuild
January 6 - 180.8 (Down.3)
Cooking family dinner tonight (my husband is only home for dinner 1-2 nights per week, the other nights I cook much simpler when it is just for my daughter and me), making a variation on the Sweets by Melissa Green Goddess Salad recipe...going to turn it into tostadas. Time to pre-log and see what else I can fit in my day's allotted calories. Have a great one!
January 7 - 180.4 (Down .4)
Snow day today & school canceled, so I got to sleep in instead of getting up super early to get my daughter on the bus. Got almost 8 hrs of sleep compared to my usual weekday 5 1/2 hrs, Yay! About to make some chili and get it going in the slow cooker for a cozy supper tonight.

My goals include (from most difficult to the easiest)
🚦Getting started
🥤Drinking more water than diet soda
🥅 Staying within my calorie limits
📚☕Making sure I get some “me time”
😅🚶🏃🏻‍♀️🚴🏻‍♀️ Exercising daily (at least 20 minutes total - not always an accurate time since I don't have a fitness watch, use my phone, and I'm not allowed to have my phone with me during the day at work, but it won't get a thumbs up unless I'm sure I've hit that 20-minute mark)
📔 Tracking every meal
⚖️ Weighing myself daily is a given for me, so this will be the easiest one for me to accomplish.

Highest Weight: Somewhere between 227-230... I don't know. I avoided the scale.
Return to MFP after ~ 5-6 year absence (June 11, 2020) = 216.9
Starting weight for this challenge (January 1, 2022) = 191.6
Goal weight loss for January - just back into the 180s somewhere would make me happy at this point.

🚦
01/01/2022 – ⚖️191.6 - 😅🚶📚☕📔
01/02/2022 – ⚖️192.0 (+0.4) - 😅🚶📚☕📔
01/03/2022 - ⚖️191.8 (-0.2 / +0.2) - 😅🚶📔📚
01/04/2022 - ⚖️ 192.6 (+0.8 / +1.0) - hello chocolate and KFC - 😅🚶📚☕📔
01/05/2022 - ⚖️ 192.4 (-0.2 / +0.8) - 😅🚶📚☕📔 - wasn't feeling well tonight, so went hunting for a Covid Home Test after work - took a few stops to find one and by then I just wanted quick and easy for dinner, so... drive-thru burritos and horchata - I know... I know... yet, still, I'm somehow *always* taken aback by the numbers. The Covid test was negative, btw. )
01/06/2022 - ⚖️ 191.4 (-1.0 / -0.2 - believe me, I'm as surprised as anybody by this... will be up tomorrow, I'm sure) - 😅🚶📚☕📔 - Meg and I did GWD tonight and instead of ordering a salad, which was my original plan, I went for a fish sandwich & sweet potato fries, which turned out to be not very good (the sandwich, not the fries)... and I had a Wet Snout (Peanut Butter Stout).
01/07/2022 - ⚖️ 192.6 (+1.2 / +1.0) - like I said....

My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 61 years old and from the Midwest USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.
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



Starting Weight (from December 31st): 191.6
Goal: 186.6 (Five lb Loss)

**************************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME************************************

01/01…...190.0…..(Trend Weight 191.5)….. Happy New Year everyone. I’ve been slipping, sliding and teetering back and forth since October (just prior to needing cancer scare breast surgery). I’m ready to stop eating all my emotions and grief and get back on track to the business of heath and well-being. Recommitting today!

01/02.…..189.8…..(Trend Weight 191.4)….. I am happy to see my weight trending down. It feels like faith in me. I’ve been doing better on my meals but little to no movement for two reasons. First, I am still sick and too weak and unsteady. Second, I am having a “temporary floor put down in about 1000 throughout most of my main floor to rid myself of horrible carpet that was in the kitchen and dining room! I don’t know what the old owners were thinking but the kitchen carpet was actually RED so this new vinyl with suffice until the rooms are fully remodeled and my click flooring can be installed. Everything throught the 900 sq ft area is now piled up in my livingroom. I have no stove or fridge, they are in living room too. Food in cold garage. Exercise is out of the question at this point so it’s a good time to be sick. I’m wearing mask while workers are here to keep my germs to myself.

01/03.…..191.0…..(Trend Weight 191.3}….. No clue why except for restricted movement during a floor remodel project that’s not going so well. Keeping the faith.

01/04.…..192.6…..(Trend Weight 191.4)….. Besides lack of movement while still trapped in my packed livingroom during floor reno in multiple rooms, I think it is the 2% milk bloating me up because my meals honestly have been pretty good. I’ll have to go back to drinking my Fairlife now that the holidays are over. It’s lactose free and not bad tasting once you get used to the unusual smell.

01/05.…..193.2…..(Trend Weight 191.6)….. Obviously I need to start logging my food again. Without snacks it seems like I’m not doing badly on the dietary side. I know my movement is little due to the renovation, but this is crazy. Keeping the faith!

01/06.…..194.0…..(Trend Weight 191.8)….. Sadly, I know this is not water weight. It’s lack of movement and calorie burn from the floor reno. It’s make-shift meals that I am trying to be reasonable on since there is no stove or fridge. It’s too easy to grab cereal for a meal with milk from the coolor and other such things that I normally stay away from. Sandwiches which add up to too much bread overall for the day etc. Flooring man left at 10:30 so another late dinner. I am hoping the work will be completed today so I’m not trapped in my livingroom for much longer! Making plans for a comeback my friends!

They will be done today for sure and I will be free to roam the house again and put my appliances back into place. Yay!
