I'm joining late but excited to have this group for support. I would like to lose 15lbs by May. 5'6"
My main focus is to stop snacking at night and to have 3 balanced, healthy meals throughout the day. I have historically restricted myself throughout the day to allow for large amounts of snacks in the evening. Trying a new approach.....

I arrived a month late. Never mind. My goal, motivation willing is to lose 100 grams a day (slightly more than 15 lb in 3 months) for as long as possible.

Nov - Jan: 203.4 - 195.6 - 7.8 lbs lost
Happy new challenge!!
2/1: 195.8 lbs - I walked 1.5 miles yesterday and was so out of breath. This covid recovery is no joke. I need to reset my half marathon training schedule to get back to somewhat one track. 33 days til race day.
2/2: 195.6 lbs
2/3: 196.0 lbs - super tired and cranky today. should be a fun day.
2/4: 197.8 lbs -
2/7: 200.4 lbs -
I'm not super sure what caused such a large gain. I wasn't as restrictive as normal Thurs - Sat last week but still was within 500 calories of my limit each day. I was back to normal eating yesterday. I feel super bloated so hopefully after a couple normal eating days this will go back down.
2/8: 199.6 lbs - I was able to walk 3 miles yesterday. I fell hard on my lower back in the ice last week. I am still afraid to try and run.
2/9: 199.0 lbs - 3 miles walked yesterday.
2/10: 199.0 lbs
2/11: 1992. lbs - I'm going to try to run today for the first time after my fall. fingers crossed!
2/12: 198.0 lbs
2/13: 199.2 lbs
2/14: 199.2 lbs - I was able to run 5 miles Friday and 5 miles today. I am 20 days out from my half marathon. i would like to drop another couple of pounds before then and get in one more long run before then.
2/15: 198.8 lbs
2/16: 198.6 lbs - short run done yesterday!
2/17: 197.4 lbs
2/18: 197.8 lbs
2/19: 198.2 lba
2/20: 197.6 lbs
2/21: 197.4 lbs - 7 miles ran yesterday for my last "longish" run before my half.
2/22: 198.4 lbs -
3 miles walked yesterday 12 days til half.
2/23: 198.0 lbs - 2 miles ran this morning!8 -
New member, but have been losing weight since last April. I probably want to lose around another 20 lbs to account for a bit of regained weight once maintenance starts. My rate of loss is not super fast anymore, and I am joining you late so losing 10 lbs by end of May would be great.

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 Ruby Red 427 for starting another challenge.
Start Weight: 197.0 (Weight on January 31, 2022)
Goal Weight: 182.0
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
Feb 01…..197.0…..(Trend Weight: 195.1)….. No change except the trend weight going up and that matters to me. Only 28 days this month to change that and many other things!
Feb 03…..195.8…..(Trend Weight: 195.4)….. Working on some changes. One’s I’ve made before. Running after that wagon I fell off!
Feb 10…..196.0…..(Trend Weight: 195.2)….. I’ve actually done much better this week and was down lower than today’s weight but last night my daughter decided to buy pizza for us and the handyman that worked all day. 3 slices later I’m up 2 ½ pounds overnight! Boy, did it ever taste salty! I’ll push water today. The rest of the meals or snacks were on point yesterday. One meal sure can do a LOT of damage! Hopefully, a better weigh-in next week.
Feb 17…..196.0…..(Trend Weight: 195.7)….. I have been gaining and losing the same 1 ½ pounds all week. Very annoying because I’m not always sure why. I haven’t been perfect for sure, but I have increased movement. Diet good, snacks meh….so that’s probably the answer.
Feb 24….. 198.0…..(Trend Weight: 196.0)….. We lost our water pump to the well last Thursday which nearly caused a fire. After clearing out the smoke we began the difficult task of finding a well company that would finally show up. After a week of waiting and several companies that made appointments then didn’t come, we finally found a company that came and quickly fixed it. Nearly $3000.00 and a report that it is only a matter of time before we need a new well drilled ($11,000.00) because what I have is insufficient for the house size, we finally had WATER! I burned a lot of calories yesterday with all the cleaning I could finally do but the scale was still bad. We’ll see what the next few days bring!

No weight loss
My problem the last 2 weeks was I wasn't logging my food. I find that if I don't log I gain weight. I need to log at least for 3 months to see what weights and measurements look like. I have a hard time judging them so am using way under or way over ( over more then under). I will be away this weekend so will see how thing go as I always eat more when away from home.6 -
Can i join now even though I'm late to the party4

Trend weight would be her average weight over a period of time (likely a week).
It's a way to monitor your progress when you weigh daily so you focus less on the day-to-day fluctuations which can be full of variation... smoothing it out so you can see if you're truly gaining or losing over time.4 -
Jumping back in here because had a little reward on the scale yesterday- lost all the weight I gained over the weekend (I went off the rails) PLUS .2 pounds! Not much, but it’s progress!

Feb 15 157.4
Feb 20 159.8
Feb 22 158.4

Goal for February was 155. Not going to make it without a miracle- but maybe by the end of the first week of March? Trying to stay on track9 -

@Sinisterbarbie @ashleycarole86 Thanks Ashley for explaining trend weight. I use trendweight.com . It automatically links to my fitbit info that I imput. You can also just add your own info if you don't have fitbit (or any of the other apps that it can link to. )2
