My name is Donna. I am 62 years old, 5' 5" tall. I live in the Midwest of USA. I am in remission for breast cancer, have Type 2 Diabetes, an under active thyroid, a touch of high blood pressure, some osteoporosis and am working to get healthier. I know losing weight and exercising more will help all of these issues.
CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 187.8
CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM June 30th): 202.8
CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:
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
I TRY TO WEIGH ON THE 1ST AND LAST DAY OF EACH MONTH ALSO. I HAVE MADE THE GOAL OF LOSING A LITTLE MORE IN SEPT AND OCT AND KEEPING IT A LITTLE LESS THROUGH THE NOV AND DEC HOLIDAYS (AND BAKING SEASON.) I THINK THAT 15 POUNDS OVERALL IS A MORE REALISTIC GOAL FOR ME ESPECIALLY SINCE I LIVE IN A VERY SNOWY AND ICY AREA AND OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES AND EXERCISE ARE DIFFICULT AFTER OCTOBER 1ST. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT I GET AND STAY AT A HEALTHY WEIGHT DUE TO HEALTH REASONS I WILL SHARE ALONG THE WAY. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! I AM ROOTING FOR YOU AND SUPPORTING YOU ALL 100% WE CAN DO THIS!
07/01-202.8-(Trend Weight: 203.0)-Good luck everyone! May all our dreams come true!
07/07-202.0-(Trend Weight: 203.4)-Have Covid. Ugh.
07/14-197.4-(Trend Weight: 200.5)-Scale going wonkers even with the new (cheap) batteries. It’s only a year old but I’m thinking maybe I need a new one. Any recommendations? I went with the number that makes the most sense. Frustrating. Feeling a bit better yesterday and today.

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

07/07-202.0-(Trend Weight: 203.4)-I have Covid. Ugh!

07/21- 199.0-(Trend Weight: 200.1)-My weight has went wonky since getting over Covid. It drifted back up daily over this past week even though I was following plan and getting some regular movement in. I’m now working my way back down from the increase that took me to about 201.0 My son and I danced for 23 minutes last night. I also rode on the stationary bike for 16 minutes. My blood pressure is staying really low after the Covid recovery. I called the cardiologist office yesterday for advice on taking/not taking my meds but no call back. I have not taken them in 2 nights now. Even without the meds the numbers are running around 95/52. Sometimes a bit lower even with the bottom number dropping into the high 40’s at times. My BPM’s remain good at 88-92. Naturally, I am afraid to take BP meds for fear it will get even lower. If anyone has any knowledge or ideas on the blood pressure thing or medication I would love to hear from you. Anyhoo, I am back to babysitting my DGS on weekends starting in the morning. I can’t wait to see him tonight!

I hate things hanging over my head so I’m glad this is happening quickly. I will try to keep up with the posts and will keep you updated as I can.

08/12-197.8-(Trend Weight: 200.4)- I have been pretty careful most days as I heal from the surgery. I have not been allowed to get in much movement however, but I still managed to drop a bit. My daughter is getting married on Sept 3rd. Lots of planning going on. I am working hard to look my current best (or better). I am very happy, especially, to see my trend weight going down.
