    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!

But I am feeling like I’m wallowing around in the same mud hole lately. I’ve got to break this 198 thing and get going! I’ll be so happy this coming summer that I did! Come on Donna. You can do this!

    Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
    A pound a week seems reasonable. Why is it so hard?

    Disappointed in myself for letting the pounds slip back on and now have to tackle the same old numbers on the scale. Getting back into focus … can I get back down to 201 by August 2022 to get back to where I was in August 2021? Hopefully but it will not be from wishful thinking but lots of hard work and focus on doing what is best for me.

    WK10 Mar 07: 198.0…..(Trend Weight: 196.8)….. A really need to get on the ball. Before you know it, it will be spring and none of my capris will fit.

    WK11 Mar 14: 198.2…..(Trend Weight: 197.6)….. I don’t want to seem ungrateful. A drop on the scale is always welcomed and nice. But I am feeling like I’m wallowing around in the same mud hole lately. I’ve got to break this 198 thing and get going! I’ll be so happy this coming summer that I did! Come on Donna. You can do this!

    WK12 Mar 21: 198.0…..(Trend Weight: 198.3)….. Trend weight up big-time due to a week of ups & downs. Kind of swimming in place and not really getting much accomplished. Travel day today won’t help but I will be thoughtful the rest of the week. At least, that is the plan.

    WK13 Mar 28: 199.6…..(Trend Weight: 199.1)….. A bad week which included some travel and a birthday party. Clearly my willpower is non-existent.
