I was extremely surprised by the scale this morning, I even rechecked three times. Last weeks gain must have just been water weight or something.
Keep up the good work everyone! We are almost halfway through this challenge. Stay strong and resist that pumpkin spice

Not to seem ungrateful for any amount of weight loss, but I was really hoping to be out of the 180's today. I kept stepping off and back onto the scale hoping it would drop by just 1/10th of a pound. Oh well, I'm still thrilled to hit the 50 lbs lost threshold.

Have a wonderful week!

Challenge Goal: 15 lbs (171.7)

Good Monday Morning:-)

Another write off week for me! Didn’t log food or do any scheduled exercise.
Just in a funk and not committed lately but Mondays are always re-set days for me.

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, high blood pressure and cholesterol, some osteoporosis and coronary heart disease with a stent in my heart. I am working to get healthier. I know losing weight and exercising more will help all of these issues.



CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM July 31, 2021): 201.6
CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 186.6
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



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.

09/12-200.4-(Trend Weight: 199.2)- All the travel this week, the sitting and restaurant food, has really impacted my progress. It’s always my downfall. More travel this week but not as much. Gotta keep my home a safe zone! Sugar cravings are bad after I eat it and there was that wedding cake!

09/19-197.8-(Trend Weight: 198.5)-I worked so hard this week to see a drop and to take advantage of our extended nice weather. Last night was my first hike this year due to my heart problems. I had to turn around halfway at the biggest hill due to breathing, but it felt great to hike along the river in the woods and enjoy nature and become one with it. I am feeling very hopeful that I will keep improving my weight. Some days I feel so negative, but lately, I’ve felt positive about it.
