Hi. I am Dawn. 61, 5'2"
I joined MFP in October of 2018 and have lost over 50 pounds.
My ideal healthy body weight is 110-118, so I have quite a long way to go yet.
I have gained 10 pounds over the past year, so I first have to undo that.
3/01 - 138.2 - Day 2 of a cleanse/reset
3/02 - 137.0 - Eliminating: dairy, wheat, grapes, fungus (mushrooms etc.), sugar, and anything fermented like vinegar. Mostly missing my morning cream in my coffee, but I am way less bloated after my coffee than previously.
3/03 - 137.2 - Getting slowly used to the copious amounts of brown rice.
3/04 - 136.8 - Ended up having to work an unexpected split shift yesterday, so dinner was late. Not sick of brown rice just yet, jazzing it up as best that I can. I realize that I haven't eaten any meat this week! I will add some to my rice concoction for tonight. Honestly, cream of mushroom soup would have been so good in it, but sugar, mushrooms, and dairy are not on plan.
3/05 - 135.8 - Day 6 of the 7? day cleanse, but on days off so no stress, and lots more time to eat nicely. Forgot to add meat to my brown rice yesterday, but there were so many other things in it. Maybe today.
3/06 - 135.6 - Day 7 of the cleanse. I put unsweetened almond milk in my cinnamon infused coffee this morning. Yeah, still missing my coffee cream.
3/07 - 136.0 - Not happy to see a rise. No change to my eating except for 10 calories worth of sugar free jello that I made 2 nights in a row. Out of herbs for the cleanse for 2 days, so maybe that? Tomorrow I will be going back to cream in my morning coffee, otherwise going to keep the eating plan for a few days longer, I have lots prepped.
3/08 - 136.8 - Officially having some cream in my coffee this morning. However, it is 6% instead of my usual 10% (half and half). It tastes good, better than black coffee for sure, but considering I gave it up for 8 days I should have went with the 10 or 18%. 6% it will be for a week, 500ml, and I put 2 tablespoons in each of my 2 cups of coffee. I won't be adding wheat back in just yet.

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 February 28th): 198.2
Goal: 193.2 (Five lb Loss)
**************************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME************************************
03/01…...196.6…..(Trend Weight 196.5)….. Good luck to everyone this round.
03/02.…..197.4…..(Trend Weight 196.6)….. Late night snacks were over the top and just too much at once and at all.
03/03.…..196.2…..(Trend Weight 196.6}….. The well company made an adjustment and we’re hoping the bladder is okay. So I didn’t have to put out the extra $900 yesterday. Let’s hope this works! An average day yesterday with food and exercise/movement yet there is a drop. I just keep bouncing back & forth and my inconsistencies are showing up on the scale with inconsistent weights. Perhaps that will speak to me loud enough.
03/04.…..196.0…..(Trend Weight 196.5)….. I stress ate a little last night due to trouble with the 4 year old DGS. I’ve raised 4 children and have never seen anything like this. It’s no wonder my daughter is in the depressed, anxious and fragile state that she is in. Things have got to get easier for us in this house!
03/05.…..198.2…..(Trend Weight 196.7)….. A whole new level of stupid. Yes, I am talking about me! Meals were very good. Snacks were over-the-top and likely related to boredom as I finally had a bit of time to myself.
03/06.…..197.0…..(Trend Weight 196.7)….. My weight was sorta bouncing up & down on the scale from 197.0 to 197.4 but finally timed out on 197.0. It will be interesting to see what tomorrow brings. Clearly I am still going up & down so regularly that even my scale is confused (and that never happens!) Very low calorie burn yesterday due to online shopping all day. I’ll have to make an extra effort today to somehow get moving! Have a good Sunday everyone.
03/07.…..198.0…..(Trend Weight 196.8)….. Very good quantities yesterday but the choices weren’t the greatest. Lots of housecleaning movement. I turned a lazy day into something productive. I will make better choices today because obviously that and no TMI affected me.
03/08.…..197.8…..(Trend Weight 196.9)….. I don’t think I’m eating enough or well enough at dinner. My snacks are reasonable (in most cases) but too many. Also, I’ve been staying up a bit later for time to myself (read, catch up on TV etc) so more time for snacks. I will have to plan better.

3/07 - 198.0 Today, I will be more deliberate with my choices, place myself on my priority list, log my food choices, and run/walk on the treadmill. Apologies for being MIA for so long! Work has settled so I'm officially getting back on track today. If you don't hear from me, send me a note and yell at me!
3/08 - 197.0 ok, so none of what I wrote yesterday actually happened. Today is a new day though, and new choices to be made.

3/09 - 136.0 - Still basically eating the same as I was on the cleanse except for dairy. I had so much food prepped that was within the guidelines, and it is delicious. I am the opposite of most, I have been trying to add carbs albeit brown rice mainly. My fibre was dismally low and the numbers are better on my MFP tracker.

3/07 - 198.0 Today, I will be more deliberate with my choices, place myself on my priority list, log my food choices, and run/walk on the treadmill. Apologies for being MIA for so long! Work has settled so I'm officially getting back on track today. If you don't hear from me, send me a note and yell at me!
3/08 - 197.0 ok, so none of what I wrote yesterday actually happened. Today is a new day though, and new choices to be made.
3/09 - 196.2 I managed to log food choices, but no exercise yesterday. Logging food now, and still have hope for exercise!
