    And it's easy too. Best wishes!

    Let's do it!
    I decide to start my new year by reading inspiring books (more like their summaries and videos) and I came across (again) "The Compound Effect".
    I loved the idea of adding small efforts to achieve big results. The 5% weight loss is also a part of a larger weight loss, over a longer period. It helped me understand that consistency is more important and if I'm consistent, then the results will be inevitable!
    Here is wishing everyone success in all their efforts in this New Year!

    My name is Donna. I am 62 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.


    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 182.8
    CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM Oct 31): 197.8
    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


    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.



    11/01-199.8-(Trend Weight: 200.2)-

    11/30-196.2-(Trend Weight: 197.8)- I am happy to have lost 1.6 lbs this month. Traditionally in the fall and winter I gain 14 – 16 pounds!!!! Not doing THAT this year. It’s a promise I am making to myself!

    Nov Actual: 196.2

    12/12-198.2-(Trend Weight: 197.9)-


    12/19-197.0-(Trend Weight: 198.1)- I’ve been up all week with bloat and travel weight but I am trying to reign it in so December doesn’t get away from me. Today is more travel with cardiac rehab. I’ll have lunch out but I’ve got to make good choices. I’ll be baking and making cookies and candies soon!


    12/26-200.6-(Trend Weight: 198.7)- Can you tell I finished my baking and candy making? While this also contains my expected bloat, ugh, it is higher than usual so the gain is obvious. Our big family dinner is today. Tomorrow will not be good on the scale, but I will begin the task of getting it back down this week. No excuses….there is some new fat in this weight!


    12/31-199.8-(Trend Weight: 199.2)- A little progress over the past couple of days, but a L…O…N…G way to go. Here’s to lots of successes this year for us all!

    5% for me equals about 9.5 pounds. I'd like to do this by Easter April 9th.

    I'm here, reading and cheering everyone along. 5 per cent for me is 8 pounds. I'm aiming to lose 2 in January.
