My name is Mary. Hopeful this month. April 1st I was 180lbs and now I have creeped up to 188lbs. My thoughts are I haven't been diligent in my calorie intake. So this month my focus is keeping my calories in a zone to lose 1lb a week.
Starting weight 188 lbs
Goal weight 184 lbs
Wednesday weekly trend weight 187, 186, 185 & 184 lbs.
Oct 1. 188lbs
Oct 5. 185lbs Wednesday my old regular weigh in. So lost some pounds and now to keep them off. My trend weight this past week was 185.7lbs. So by watching my calories this week my aim will be 184.7 lbs. I trying to set more realistic goals for myself.
Oct 8. 193 lbs Again with the huge weight gain in a short period of time. This sucks.😫
Oct 9. 188 lbs. This is too drastic for me.
Oct 12. 186 lbs ⬇️⬇️My Wednesday check in. My weekly trend weight is 188.3 lbs so I did not achieve my week 2 goal. But I am down 2 lbs from the start of the month. Feeling pretty good. Attitude is positive.
Oct 13. 186lbs
Oct 14. 186lbs
Oct 15. 187lbs
Oct 16. 187lbs
Oct 17. 190lbs
Oct 18. 189lbs
Oct 19. 187lbs Well another Wednesday weigh in. My trend weight is 187.3. So I did not reach my trend weight goal. Down 1 lb.
Oct 20. 187lbs
Oct 21. 189lbs
Oct 22. 189lbs
Oct 23. 189lbs I haven't been so dedicated in reporting in. Been weighing myself but not tracking my food. So many doctor appointments last week and they weren't mine. I feel grateful that I am there for my family. But I really need to get my act together and start taking the steps to a more healthy lifestyle.
Oct 24. 187lbs Pleasant surprise

I’m glad to have this inspiring group of people to share this journey with!
My October goals are the same as my September goals because those didn’t get met at all. September went sideways on me. I would like to get more movement in, especially on work days and more self care, 3 out of 7 days per week.

I weighed myself 3 times. The body is a weird thing.

Trying to catch up from all of last month’s drama. I could sleep for three days and still be tired!
10/5: 205.3
10/6: 205.1
So far this months goals have not been being met unless you count an hour nap on Sunday as self care. I guess it is because I needed for my “self.” I’m actually not sure how to meet these goals. They are harder to do than expected.
10/7: 204.0
10/8: 204.3
A manicure and shopping today after work.
10/9: 205.3
Salty takeout for dinner. It will come off. Self care yesterday, nails and shopping. Went to my usual plus sized store and am happy to report the last time I was there I was choosing between a 3x/4x (22-24) and yesterday I walked out of there with size 0 (Size 16) and likely will not need to shop there again (hopefully) ever. Definite NSV!

10/15: 204.0
Ticked some more health markers off the list for my path to wellness yesterday, mammogram✅recheck bloodwork ✅. I’m left with an eye appointment and a spine appointment for the year. The rest of yesterday was spent doing self care aka shopping and laying on the couch. I’ll take it!
10/16: 205.3
Ugh! Not happy to see this but I know it’s just a bump in the road.
10/17: 204.6
My recheck bloodwork came back with a normal A1C but still elevated cholesterol. I’ve also got my blood pressure back to normal. I still have about 60 pounds to lose but my doctor and I talked extensively about my diet and she doesn’t think that’s what’s causing the cholesterol issue. It is likely genetic and something I can’t get away from. I really did not want to have to take a pill though. Ugh.

October
Initial Starting Weight: 225.2
October Starting Weight: 205.5
October Goal Weight: 200.6
Ultimate Goal Weight: 180.0
Me again, I weigh every day due to heart failure and fluid issues. I am finally making a daily weight check part of my morning routine (It had been doctors advice for a couple of years now but I just could not get in the routine of it)
For reference, I am 55f, 5'11" tall, and August 1st got back to a low carb menu in my house after losing a bunch and gaining it back 2 years ago.
OCTOBER GOALS (DAILY):
⚖️ Weigh in
👟 Walk 5,500+ steps (Starting September 15th- nice to add something to the daily goal)
1-205.5 Welcome October! Bought dance tickets for the 27th of October, so I will be looking for a costume for the first time in a couple of years, and I would like to meet my Oct goal by then.
2-204.8 👟 1.1 km
3-203.6 👟 1.5km
4-202.8 👟 1.0 km
5-203.0
6-204.2 I slipped a little yesterday, skipping that tiny treadmill 1km and being sloppy with my eating, and didn't log my food. It is probably good that there is a bit of a gain to snap me back in line, even if it is maybe just a natural fluctuation lol
7-203.2
8-204.4 Losing the same couple of pounds repeatedly takes some of the rah-rah sis boom bah out of the :....has lost 1.4 pounds since her last weigh in..." I am going to stick to it though.
9- 203.4 It is Thanksgiving Sunday here in Canada. I am up before 7am to get things started cooking. Have a great day everyone!
10-203.4
11-202.4 Not feeling great this morning. Maybe a bit of a cold coming on. -1C this morning outside
12-203.0
13-201.4 Unexpected. I will take it though lol
14-203.8 Also unexpected lol. By the way I feel it is quite possible that the entire 2.4 pound gain is sitting in my sinuses. Blaaaah I feel awful.
15-202.4
16-203.0 Dear body. You are toying with my emotions. To show me that 201 3 days ago then just bounce around is cruel and unusual punishment. Stop it. I am logging my food, I am sticking to the plan. Just show it on the scale for goodness sakes. Grr.
17-201.4 Begging works?!? lol
18-200.8
19-202.4
20-203.8 So yesterday I got up and did something I haven't done in forever. I got up and had a giant bowl of Special K with a banana cut up in it. 80 grams of carbohydrates before the day even started. stayed pretty good the rest of the day but did a little mindless eating just before bed. Rice cakes. Salty and crunchy but not potato chips. I expect this gain is fluid retention and will be mostly gone in less than a week. Back with the program today after this little wake up call lol
21-203.4
22-203.4
23-202.4
24-202.8 Crunch time. 7 days until the end of October. 2.2 pounds to lose. Doable.
25-202.43 -
My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 62 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.

@joans1976 Actually both. I always need Alka Seltzer when my belly is this big. Acid reflux. But honestly, I was just relieved the scale went down when I missed that day of weighing. Back up a bit today, but that's the water weight from my heart. The every other day (approx) water pill will relieve that.3 -

👟 Walk 5,500+ steps (Starting September 15th- nice to add something to the daily goal)
1-205.5 Welcome October! Bought dance tickets for the 27th of October, so I will be looking for a costume for the first time in a couple of years, and I would like to meet my Oct goal by then.

I did some emotional eating yesterday. Biopsies are done, now I wait.4 -
My name is Mary. Hopeful this month. April 1st I was 180lbs and now I have creeped up to 188lbs. My thoughts are I haven't been diligent in my calorie intake. So this month my focus is keeping my calories in a zone to lose 1lb a week.
Starting weight 188 lbs
Goal weight 184 lbs
Wednesday weekly trend weight 187, 186, 185 & 184 lbs.
Oct 1. 188lbs
Oct 5. 185lbs Wednesday my old regular weigh in. So lost some pounds and now to keep them off. My trend weight this past week was 185.7lbs. So by watching my calories this week my aim will be 184.7 lbs. I trying to set more realistic goals for myself.
Oct 8. 193 lbs Again with the huge weight gain in a short period of time. This sucks.😫
Oct 9. 188 lbs. This is too drastic for me.
Oct 12. 186 lbs ⬇️⬇️My Wednesday check in. My weekly trend weight is 188.3 lbs so I did not achieve my week 2 goal. But I am down 2 lbs from the start of the month. Feeling pretty good. Attitude is positive.
Oct 19. 187lbs Well another Wednesday weigh in. My trend weight is 187.3. So I did not reach my trend weight goal. Down 1 lb.
Oct 20. 187lbs
Oct 21. 189lbs
Oct 22. 189lbs
Oct 23. 189lbs I haven't been so dedicated in reporting in. Been weighing myself but not tracking my food. So many doctor appointments last week and they weren't mine. I feel grateful that I am there for my family. But I really need to get my act together and start taking the steps to a more healthy lifestyle.
Oct 24. 187lbs Pleasant surprise
Oct 25. 188lbs
Oct 26. 192lbs Yep that's me again. Nothing different but I am guessing retaining water. ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ My October goal is lose 4lbs not gain 4lbs. My 7 day trend weight is 188.4lbs.
Oct 27. 189.5lbs

10/25-199.8-(Trend Weight 200.5)-
10/26-200.4-(Trend Weight 200.5)- Frustrating but expected water weight. Yesterday was a good day filled with yard work, some exercise biking and lots of steps. Diet was on point.
10/27-200.0-(Trend Weight 200.5)- Still bloated due to lack of meds. I had a local business appt yesterday so I couldn’t take it or I pee (literally) every 10 minutes all day until late evening when I’m drained. So I am surprised to see a drop today. It may be from the raking and yard work the day before finally showing up. Last night was movie night with my son. First one in a long time. We ordered Pizza which we only do less than a handful of times a year. I don’t eat it often because I have it stuck in my head that it could be raw in the center. Just part of my disorder with food. But last night I braved it and it was good. But it will be a long time before I get brave enough again. This issue often causes me to grab “safe” easy foods. It makes dieting tough, but I am managing. Anyway, those of you that have been here for awhile know that I do not have a good relationship with food. There is so much more to it than I’ve shared today. All the newbies will get to know me and my issues better as time goes on. Know this, I am ALWAYS a work in progress but most of us are in one way or another. I hope this declaration helps others today.

I’m glad to have this inspiring group of people to share this journey with!
My October goals are the same as my September goals because those didn’t get met at all. September went sideways on me. I would like to get more movement in, especially on work days and more self care, 3 out of 7 days per week.

Trying to catch up from all of last month’s drama. I could sleep for three days and still be tired!
10/5: 205.3
10/6: 205.1
So far this months goals have not been being met unless you count an hour nap on Sunday as self care. I guess it is because I needed for my “self.” I’m actually not sure how to meet these goals. They are harder to do than expected.
10/7: 204.0
10/8: 204.3
A manicure and shopping today after work.
10/9: 205.3
Salty takeout for dinner. It will come off. Self care yesterday, nails and shopping. Went to my usual plus sized store and am happy to report the last time I was there I was choosing between a 3x/4x (22-24) and yesterday I walked out of there with size 0 (Size 16) and likely will not need to shop there again (hopefully) ever.

Ticked some more health markers off the list for my path to wellness yesterday, mammogram✅recheck bloodwork ✅. I’m left with an eye appointment and a spine appointment for the year. The rest of yesterday was spent doing self care aka shopping and laying on the couch. I’ll take it!
10/16: 205.3
Ugh! Not happy to see this but I know it’s just a bump in the road.
10/17: 204.6
My recheck bloodwork came back with a normal A1C but still elevated cholesterol. I’ve also got my blood pressure back to normal. I still have about 60 pounds to lose but my doctor and I talked extensively about my diet and she doesn’t think that’s what’s causing the cholesterol issue. It is likely genetic and something I can’t get away from. I really did not want to have to take a pill though. Ugh.

October
Initial Starting Weight: 225.2
October Starting Weight: 205.5
October Goal Weight: 200.6
Ultimate Goal Weight: 180.0
Me again, I weigh every day due to heart failure and fluid issues. I am finally making a daily weight check part of my morning routine (It had been doctors advice for a couple of years now but I just could not get in the routine of it)
For reference, I am 55f, 5'11" tall, and August 1st got back to a low carb menu in my house after losing a bunch and gaining it back 2 years ago.
OCTOBER GOALS (DAILY):
⚖️ Weigh in
👟 Walk 5,500+ steps (Starting September 15th- nice to add something to the daily goal)
1-205.5 Welcome October! Bought dance tickets for the 27th of October, so I will be looking for a costume for the first time in a couple of years, and I would like to meet my Oct goal by then.
2-204.8 👟 1.1 km
3-203.6 👟 1.5km
4-202.8 👟 1.0 km
5-203.0
6-204.2 I slipped a little yesterday, skipping that tiny treadmill 1km and being sloppy with my eating, and didn't log my food. It is probably good that there is a bit of a gain to snap me back in line, even if it is maybe just a natural fluctuation lol
7-203.2
8-204.4 Losing the same couple of pounds repeatedly takes some of the rah-rah sis boom bah out of the :....has lost 1.4 pounds since her last weigh in..." I am going to stick to it though.
9- 203.4 It is Thanksgiving Sunday here in Canada. I am up before 7am to get things started cooking. Have a great day everyone!
10-203.4
11-202.4 Not feeling great this morning. Maybe a bit of a cold coming on. -1C this morning outside
12-203.0
13-201.4 Unexpected. I will take it though lol
14-203.8 Also unexpected lol. By the way I feel it is quite possible that the entire 2.4 pound gain is sitting in my sinuses. Blaaaah I feel awful.
15-202.4
16-203.0 Dear body. You are toying with my emotions. To show me that 201 3 days ago then just bounce around is cruel and unusual punishment. Stop it. I am logging my food, I am sticking to the plan. Just show it on the scale for goodness sakes. Grr.
17-201.4 Begging works?!? lol
18-200.8
19-202.4
20-203.8 So yesterday I got up and did something I haven't done in forever. I got up and had a giant bowl of Special K with a banana cut up in it. 80 grams of carbohydrates before the day even started. stayed pretty good the rest of the day but did a little mindless eating just before bed. Rice cakes. Salty and crunchy but not potato chips. I expect this gain is fluid retention and will be mostly gone in less than a week. Back with the program today after this little wake up call lol
21-203.4
22-203.4
23-202.4
24-202.8 Crunch time. 7 days until the end of October. 2.2 pounds to lose. Doable.
25-202.4
26-201.8
27-200.2 I weighed and checked in but did not put it in here. Stress is not my friend at this time.
28-198.6 Huh. I didnt know it would be possible to be so disappointed hitting one-derland. and 1.6 pound loss 2 days in a row can only mean I have a bit of a bounce coming. The good news is my feet are not swollen today. So I will say woohoo tentatively, and I will be okay with whatever bounce comes lol
