    @39flavours - I love your emojis for your goals. I wonder if I have some of those on my computer or if they are only on my phone. Hmmmm...

    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. Logging instead of guesstimating is making a big difference.
    5/04: 188.1 - Hubby's meal tonight was waaaay salty. Expecting a bump tomorrow.

    @joans1976 Glad you're feeling a bit better. Stress can affect us physically a lot worse than we realize. Hoping your stressors can be eliminated or reduced and get you back to feeling good.

    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.

    05/02-193.6-(Trend Weight 192.3)-


    05/03-193.4-(Trend Weight 192.6)-


    05/04-193.6-(Trend Weight 192.7)- Well there is that sneaky little increase that was hiding from the scale! So glad it’s only 0.2 !!! I had a great food and exercise day yesterday. Stayed on track and watched all my p’s and q’s. This too shall pass.


    05/05-193.6-(Trend Weight 192.7)- I went over to the school yesterday and walked the track for about 90 minutes. We had a high of 57 yesterday and it felt so good to get out. Soon the track will be too hot with it’s blacktop walkway and, naturally, no trees or shade in sight. But for now it was really nice. My diet could have been better. I came back from walking very very hungry so it was a portion control issue.

    Watched King Charles & Queen Camille being formally crowned. Just love all things British. It brings me such JOY 🀩

    Today's plan is hanging with DH, shoping of a garden shed, watching Kentucky Derby and doing extra cardio & drinking extra water. πŸ‘

    Already completed 10 minutes of normal hand weight.
    Looking good for summer short sleeves πŸš£β€β™€οΈ

    05/06-193.0-(Trend Weight 192.7)- I woke up starving today probably because I had such a good food day yesterday. However, there was a severe lack of exercise except for all the stairs over & over as I babysat my DGS all day yesterday. He’s staying the whole weekend so I’ll be on my feet quite a lot. He’s 5 and needy lol.
