    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.

    Hi there! I’m Athena, I’ve been doing Jill’s challenges since October and have lost 10 pounds so far. What works for me is mindfully eating for my diet and working out for my mental health. I got to 153 last month a few times and would cycle to 156 on the weekends, planning to focus in managing my eating more when going out. I hope to see 151 by the end of this month.

    Heaviest weight: 165
    Current weight: 153
    March weight lost so far: 0

    Daily Goals:

    ☘️ 45 min workout on weekdays
    ☘️ Restrict eating out to weekends
    ☘️ Restrict restaurant meals to half
    ☘️ Eat out earlier in the day
    ☘️ Track weight daily
    ☘️ Drink 8 glasses of water daily
    ☘️ Calorie count/ mindfully eat daily
    ☘️ (Optional) Take workout classes
    ☘️ (Optional) Do long runs on Saturdays

    March 01 - 153 (home cooked/ran)
    March 02 - 153 (went out/walked)
    March 03 - 152 (leftovers)
    March 04 - 153 (home cooked)
    March 05 - 153 (went out/ long run)

    Ok! Off to a good start today. The long run went really well. Now it’s time to mindfully eat.

    Heaviest weight: 293 (1/28/21)
    Current weight: 174
    March weight lost so far: 2.4

    Daily Goals:

    🌱64 oz water
    🌱At least 7.5 hours sleep
    🌱Intentional exercise of at least 20 minutes daily
    🌱Eat at or under my calorie goal and track every single bite

    March 01 - 176.4 (The first day of March is here with the sun shining bright. Looking forward to a lunchtime walk and an after work Peloton ride.)
    March 02 - 176.2 (And we're off! The Peloton ride yesterday was fantastic as I redid my FTP test and saw big improvements. I am dragging a bit to get on the bike after work but I'm just going to go down there and get it done!)
    March 03 - 176.4 (Snow and cold is back. Instead of my lunchtime walk I did my shoveling. I rode the Peloton before work... my new zones after my FTP test will take some getting used to! Felt like great exercise. Hockey game out tonight will consist of unknown food + drink.)
    March 04 - 173.4 (Fun time at the hockey game and only went 68 calories over my plan which was great considering the opportunity that was on the table to go way overboard. My dad gets in today for 10 day visit so my normal routine will be slightly disrupted.)
    March 05 - 174 (Woke up early and PR'd on the Peloton for my 60 minute time. Off to see The Batman this afternoon.)

    March 05 - 142.6 - 1436 Cal, decent walk this afternoon, busy day! Managed to stay on track eating- even with eating out - chose chicken power bowl at Qdoba.

    Thanks to this group- inspired me to "stick with it" today!

    I'm Beth, I'm back, I'm fat and I'm tired of myself. So... I've been doing challenges for awhile but for the last 5 months I've totally lost my way, even with that. As of last week, I'm now closer to 64 than 63. I'm mom to adult twingles. I enjoy riding my bike, used to enjoy "running" until I got lonely. I'm not a super-extrovert, but I like to have someone to talk to sometimes and nobody I know is as slow as I am. Same kind of goes with biking. My bike and I are outclassed in every way. And I've turned into a whiny little *kitten* the past few days. So, two of my new goals are to get out of my funk and to stop using food as a crutch for everything that doesn't seem to be going my way (like cars, emotions, rent, etc).

    My regular 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 more
    📔 Tracking every meal
    ⚖️ Weighing daily is a given for me, so this will be the easiest one for me. My primary goal right now is just go DOWN again.

    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
    Lowest weight since I started in June 2020 = 177.4 (9/19/21) - been climbing ever since...
    Final weight from last month's challenge (February 28, 2022) = 200.2
    Starting weight for this challenge (March 1, 2022) = 199.8

    March 01- ⚖️ 199.8 (-0.4 from yesterday) - 🚶‍♀️📚 - didn't track dinner. I know what I ate, and it put me way over. Starting the month off with a bang.
    March 02- ⚖️ 200.8 (+1.0) - 🚶‍♀️📚📔
    March 03 - ⚖️ 200.8 (+0.0) - 🚶‍♀️📚📔
    March 04 - ⚖️ 200.6 (+0.0) - 🚶‍♀️📚 - I met Cary Elwes tonight. *swoon* and *squeeeee* (Yes, I'm old... but I'm still a fangirl of certain movies/shows. The Princess Bride is one of them. Hahaha). He is handsome, charming, funny, kind, and came across as a genuinely nice and likeable man. I also watched The Princess Bride in the 92 year old theater where I saw my first movie ever ("That Darn Cat!") in 1965. It was a wonderful end to a generally s****y day.
    March 05 - ⚖️ 200.2 (+0.0) - 📚 - Yeah, today was another generally s****y day... without the wonderful ending.

    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.

    Hi there! I’m Athena, I’ve been doing Jill’s challenges since October and have lost 10 pounds so far. What works for me is mindfully eating for my diet and working out for my mental health. I got to 153 last month a few times and would cycle to 156 on the weekends, planning to focus in managing my eating more when going out. I hope to see 151 by the end of this month.

    Heaviest weight: 165
    Current weight: 153
    March weight lost so far: 0

    Daily Goals:

    ☘️ 45 min workout on weekdays
    ☘️ Restrict eating out to weekends
    ☘️ Restrict restaurant meals to half
    ☘️ Eat out earlier in the day
    ☘️ Track weight daily
    ☘️ Drink 8 glasses of water daily
    ☘️ Calorie count/ mindfully eat daily
    ☘️ (Optional) Take workout classes
    ☘️ (Optional) Do long runs on Saturdays

    March 01 - 153 (home cooked/ran)
    March 02 - 153 (went out/walked)
    March 03 - 152 (leftovers)
    March 04 - 153 (home cooked)
    March 05 - 153 (went out/ long run)
    March 06 - 153 (went out/ walked 2hrs)

    Weather was awesome so took a long walk. Burned about as many calories as running for 45 minutes! Happy I could catch up with the activity.

    I'm Beth, I'm back, I'm fat and I'm tired of myself. So... I've been doing challenges for awhile but for the last 5 months I've totally lost my way, even with that. As of last week, I'm now closer to 64 than 63. I'm mom to adult twingles. I enjoy riding my bike, used to enjoy "running" until I got lonely. I'm not a super-extrovert, but I like to have someone to talk to sometimes and nobody I know is as slow as I am. Same kind of goes with biking. My bike and I are outclassed in every way. And I've turned into a whiny little *kitten* the past few days. So, two of my new goals are to get out of my funk and to stop using food as a crutch for everything that doesn't seem to be going my way (like cars, emotions, rent, etc).

    My regular 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 more
    📔 Tracking every meal
    ⚖️ Weighing daily is a given for me, so this will be the easiest one for me. My primary goal right now is just go DOWN again.

    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
    Lowest weight since I started in June 2020 = 177.4 (9/19/21) - been climbing ever since...
    Final weight from last month's challenge (February 28, 2022) = 200.2
    Starting weight for this challenge (March 1, 2022) = 199.8

    March 01- ⚖️ 199.8 (-0.4 from yesterday) - 🚶‍♀️📚 - didn't track dinner. I know what I ate, and it put me way over. Starting the month off with a bang.
    March 02- ⚖️ 200.8 (+1.0) - 🚶‍♀️📚📔
    March 03 - ⚖️ 200.8 (+0.0) - 🚶‍♀️📚📔
    March 04 - ⚖️ 200.6 (+0.0) - 🚶‍♀️📚 - I met Cary Elwes tonight. *swoon* and *squeeeee* (Yes, I'm old... but I'm still a fangirl of certain movies/shows. The Princess Bride is one of them. Hahaha). He is handsome, charming, funny, kind, and came across as a genuinely nice and likeable man. I also watched The Princess Bride in the 92 year old theater where I saw my first movie ever ("That Darn Cat!") in 1965. It was a wonderful end to a generally s****y day.
    March 05 - ⚖️ 200.2 (+0.0) - 📚 - Yeah, today was another generally s****y day... without the wonderful ending.
    March 06 - ⚖️ 200.4 (+0.2) - 🚶‍♀️📚 - blah.

    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.

    Heaviest weight: 293 (1/28/21)
    Current weight: 173.2
    March weight lost so far: 3.2

    Daily Goals:

    🌱64 oz water
    🌱At least 7.5 hours sleep
    🌱Intentional exercise of at least 20 minutes daily
    🌱Eat at or under my calorie goal and track every single bite

    March 01 - 176.4 (The first day of March is here with the sun shining bright. Looking forward to a lunchtime walk and an after work Peloton ride.)
    March 02 - 176.2 (And we're off! The Peloton ride yesterday was fantastic as I redid my FTP test and saw big improvements. I am dragging a bit to get on the bike after work but I'm just going to go down there and get it done!)
    March 03 - 176.4 (Snow and cold is back. Instead of my lunchtime walk I did my shoveling. I rode the Peloton before work... my new zones after my FTP test will take some getting used to! Felt like great exercise. Hockey game out tonight will consist of unknown food + drink.)
    March 04 - 173.4 (Fun time at the hockey game and only went 68 calories over my plan which was great considering the opportunity that was on the table to go way overboard. My dad gets in today for 10 day visit so my normal routine will be slightly disrupted.)
    March 05 - 174 (Woke up early and PR'd on the Peloton for my 60 minute time. Off to see The Batman this afternoon.)
    March 06 - 174 (Sun is shining. Looking to walk today and ride my Peloton. Also going to my friend's kid's 3rd birthday party.)
    March 07 - 173.2 (Peloton ride and walk are done. My husband is making a few delicious proteins on the BBQ. Life is good.)
