    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 April 30th): 192.6
    Goal: 187.6 (Five lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight:

    **************************************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.


    05/01-193.0-(Trend Weight 192.2)- I’m just not in a good space right now. The whole round has been bad for me but the last couple of days has been no willpower whatsoever. Pretty depressed and gotta get out of this funk. Gotta pull it together. See you next round where it will hopefully be better for me! Congrats to all of you who had scale, fitness and NSV’s.

    05/02-193.6-(Trend Weight 192.3)- The madness must stop! When I saw the scale I just wanted to crawl back into bed and put my head under the covers. I would love to get outside but it’s just too cold. Snow yesterday and today. It wouldn’t be northern Michigan without snow in May, right? I’ve got to cut the snacks and do some inside workouts. Maybe a little dancing will lift my spirits while burning some calories.

    Hello! I am Amanda, I am back in for the month of May! This is an inspiring group!
    My goal for May is to get moving! I am such a procrastinator when it comes to this and I set it as a goal every month and NEVER do it. The weather should cooperate now.

    May goals:
    💥Walk 3x/week
    💥Lose 4 or 5 pounds

    OSW: 250
    OGW: 150
    5/1/23: 199.7
    5/31/23 goal: 195

    5/1: 199.7
    5/2: 199.7
    It’s okay. Not going to get frustrated. Need to get moving. Despite the 6 days straight of rain and the 12 hour a day desk job. Must get moving.
    5/3: 199.7 🤨

    @ddainiak Darlene-Im curious (and this has nothing to do with your posts or weight or anything, just curious) what we’re the other challenges you tried? Or ones you liked if you don’t want to say?
    I belong to the Less Alcohol thread (I think that’s support not a challenge) and it has made such a difference in my life. I used to love the 10 day challenges and would like to get back to it but for now this one is just my speed.

    @joans1976 I am a huge Harry Potter fan, and am in the Hogwarts challenge. I'm really loving it. It keeps me accountable and motivated. You are put in teams and the teams compete to win the "house" cup. You get points for completing tasks, some mandatory, some optional. Since I don't like to let the team down, I do them all. The tasks aren't all weight related - some exercising, some nutrition, some relaxing. I'm starting the Biggest Loser Challenge today. It looks like it will be similar to the Hogwarts challenge, and there will be some overlap; but think it's doable for me. It's just me at home everyday and it gives me something to do instead of sitting on the couch. The last one is similar to this one (Spring 2023 weight loss challenge), but you weigh in weekly instead of daily. I like this one better.

    Where do you find those other challenges? Are they all in this Challenges forum? Or their own forums?

    Cheers!

    @mkksemail Yes, I found them in the myfitness pal challenges. Search Hogwarts and BLC. The Hogwarts one is already started (Hogwarts Weight Loss Challenge Term 44); you would have to wait for the next round. The BLC one actually started today, but I think they have a late entry team? Might be able to still participate, its the BLC52 SPRING/SUMMER ROUND.

    Thank you! 🩷

    I posted on the White Rabbits Team sign up thread. I guess we'll see 🙂.

    I tried to join the Hogwarts group, so I could watch and see what it's all about, but no luck. Looks like you can't watch if you're too late to join 🙂

    The past few months have been emotionally and physically draining, but I'm not giving up. May is a new month and "may" it bring us all health and happiness!

    I am a 5'4", 45 year-old married female with four kids. I am a two-time cancer survivor, which put me into Early Menopause, and also have Hypothyroidism.

    Starting weight:
    January-189.4
    February-187.3
    March-192.1
    April-194.6
    May-189.3

    May Goals:
    🌷1. Log food everyday
    🌷2. Take thyroid med everyday
    🌷3. Increase water intake
    🌷4. Stretch daily
    🌷5. C25K training 5x week
    🌷6. Weight training 4x week

    5/01: 189.3 - Hit goals 1-5.
    5/02: 188.1 - Hit goals 1-4.
    5/03: 187.8 - Hit goals1-5. Accurate logging instead of my guesstimating is making a big difference. Getting used to a lower amount of calories is tricky. Very tricky.

    @mkksemail If that doesn't work out for you, I found one more while searching. After these two are done, might give that a try to see which I like best. It looks like it's a monthly thing- FAT 2 FIT WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE AND SUPPORT GROUP. Good luck!
