    Started Couch to 5K yesterday (had to get some running in for another challenge I am in). It was fun - hoping that my knees will allow me to go forward! A little over 300 active minutes so far - 200 more to go this week. I've been logging consistently, under calorie limits each day. Am going out to dinner tonight, hoping to make some good choices. I am reading two books at the moment Harry Potter - Order of Phoenix (for the umteenth time) and Shadow and Bone. @39flavours - I like those cute little things you put after your weigh ins! I'm stealing the ones I can figure out how to make!

    My goals for April: 4 pound loss
    Log Consistently
    Log 500 active minutes on fitbit per week
    Read 1/2 hour a day

    January weight lost: 9 pounds
    February weight lost: 5 pounds
    March weight lost: 5 pounds to date

    April
    1- 207.6
    2- 207.7 :s - New to weighing in everyday - hope this is just temporary
    3 - 207.6 :)
    4 - 207.4 :)
    5 - 206.8 :)

    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 62 years old and from the Michigan 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 March 1st): 191.6 (I am re-doing my March starting weight and goals due to health issues in March.
    Goal: 186.6 (Five lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx

    **************************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME************************************


    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.

    04/04-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- Oh my Goodness, I wanted to weigh so badly today! But then, why would I weight the day after travel when the restaurant food usually adds 2-3 extra pounds to the scale? So I am drinking lots of water to offset the high sodium meal, hoping for a TMI to rid myself of the evidence and going to try to close all my fitbit circles today while carefully watching the bp. Fasting glucose this morning was pretty good so that is a good sign of the times I hope. Enjoy your day everyone!



    04/05-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- Bad Rain storm across Michigan today. Some areas (like mine) will also see a wintery mix of rain & snow, large hail, and in some areas the possibility of tornados. So it’s gloomy but active. Had thunder and lightning all night which I hate since I am so terrified of lightning because my house was struck when I was a child. I pray we don’t lose power because then there is no water when you have a well. On the diet front: Yesterday was a very good day. I cooked some new meals which was within plan and exciting. I did a little mild dancing even though I’ve been told not to exercise quite yet. Today my blood pressure is down too low again. It seems to be going back & forth. I travel tomorrow for cardiac rehab (education only at this point, no exercise because of bp) and it is located in the same town as the Heart Failure Clinic so Dr. says to bring in bp machine so they can download my recent readings. They will probably call later to direct me. Sticking to my guns today. I’ve already pre-logged my meals. I can feel that my clothes are a bit tighter mainly due to lack of burning those calories I’m eating. My daily calorie expenditure overall has been in the 1800 range. THAT gets me nowhere!

    Hello, I am Amanda, I’m a crazy cat lady from Michigan. I stopped logging and weighing mid February because of health issues and I ended up gaining back about 4 pounds. I worked hard to lose weight last year and don’t want to gain it all back!

    My goal for April is to lose those 4 pounds and walking 3 days a week.

    OSW: 250 lbs
    April 1: 205.1 lbs
    April goal: 201 lbs

    4/1: 205.1
    4/2: 205.7
    Went out to eat last night which I rarely do. The food seemed really salty.
    4/3: 204.8
    4/4: 204.8
    It’s been raining here for a few days and supposed to rain until Thursday. Makes it hard to walk outside but I’ve got to make myself do it!
    4/5: 206.7
    A 2 pound gain overnight. Lovely.
    4/6: 204.8 phew!

    04/06-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- I ate dinner way way too late, around 10:30 PM. I’ve got to find a way to eat earlier! My tummy feels like a ton of bricks. It was a good day though. I stayed within calorie, got a good bp reading late last night after dinner and (therefore) jumped on my exercise bike for about 25 minutes. Travel today. I must be strategic.
