    My name is Donna. I am 5โ€™ 5โ€ tall, 63 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.

    My mini-challenge is to lose 6 pounds between My birthday and July 4th. My birthday morning weigh-in (May 10th) was 195.1. I hope to be at 189.1 by the morning of July 4th, 2023.

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    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 itโ€™s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because itโ€™s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

    05/12-195.3-(Trend Weight 193.9)- Not a lot of activity yesterday. Beauty shop and then visited my elderly friend who just got out of the hospital. I got her out sitting on her porch for awhile to lift her spirits. My diet yesterday was so-so. Healthy, but the portions were uncalled for.

    I met this goal today (fitbit miles, not running). Trying to get 2,023 fitbit miles in 2,023; 1,223 to go.
    43abjfoudcgz.png

    According to my tracker "WHOA! You're crushing this challenge! Keep it up, you're on pace to finish on November 30th, 2023 and not a day later!" Yeah me. :p

    Wow! that's amazing! That's a goal I haven't ever considered but I love it. I don't do Fitbit anymore but with my Apple Watch I could do something like it. Thanks for sharing and inspiring me.

    Hello, I'm Darlene. I'm 62. I Married, and have one kid (28) and one pup (Monty), no grandkids. I have been retired since 2020. My husband was retired, but returned to work in January. I vowed to take this year to lose weight, get healthy, give up some bad habits, exercise, read more, etc. I started a few challenges last month to see which ones I liked, this is one that kept me accountable so I am back! Looking forward to see what May brings!

    Start Weight: 227
    Goal Weight: 160

    January weight Lost: 9 Pounds
    February weight Lost: 5 Pounds
    March weight Lost: 5 Pounds
    April weight Lost: 8 Pounds

    My goals for May:
    Lose 4 Pounds โš–๏ธ
    Log 50 Fit Bit Miles Per Week ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ
    Read 1/2 Hour each Day (at least 5 days/week) ๐Ÿ“–
    Knit 1/2 Hour each Day (at least 5 days/week) ๐Ÿงถ

    ๐ŸŒปMay ๐ŸŒป

    1 - 200.2 - Very close to Onederland - hoping to get there this week! ๐Ÿคž
    2 - 199.8 - ๐Ÿ˜Made it! Now to keep it there!
    3 - 200.0 - :s
    4 - 200.0 :s
    5 - 199.6 - :) Well let's try this again!
    6 - 199.6 :|
    7 - 199 - ๐Ÿ˜ Woo Hoo! Don't know how that happend, but I'll take it.
    8 - 199.4 - :s
    9 - 198.6 - ๐Ÿ˜
    10 - 197.2 - ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ That one deserves a double Woo Hoo! Probably be up tomorrow! LOL
    11 - 198.2 - :s Called it! But I still like the May trend. Have a couple of challenging days ahead. My daughter is coming over tomorrow night. We are celebrating her birthday and Mother's day. She is spending then night, and then we all will go to my Mom's to take her out for breakfast for Mother's day. Hoping to make some good choices.
    12 - 197.6 :| Thinking that scale was wrong on Wed; but getting back there.
    13 - 197.8 :s What I expected. Went out with the family last night for dinner. Didn't really think I overdid it, tried to estimate the calories for MFP, and was under calorie range, but think that it was probably salty. Have breakfast with Mom this morning, then I hope to eat light the rest of the day, and get in my excercise, walk Monty. Hoping it's down tomorrow.

    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:
    ๐Ÿ’ฅWalk 3x/week
    ๐Ÿ’ฅLose 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
    5/3: 199.7 ๐Ÿคจ
    5/4: 199.7
    5/5: 199.0
    5/6: 199.0
    5/7: 198.7 *walked*

    5/8: 197.8 (!)
    Itโ€™s a new week. Iโ€™m going to try really hard to go for a walk or at least get my steps in 3 days this week. Iโ€™ve been feeling really tired so itโ€™s a delicate balance.

    5/9: 197.8
    I am feeling much more lively and promised myself I would only work 10 hours yesterday and go for a walk after. That did not happen. I ended up working 13 hours and it was raining and dark by the time I got done. Mondays are always crazy at work but I need to work on firmer boundaries. Set my work status to โ€œNo.โ€ ๐Ÿคจ

    5/10: 197.8 *walked*
    Well that work boundary thing didnโ€™t work out great yesterday but I wonโ€™t bore you with details.
    I did great with calories and steps (for me) yesterday and the weather is supposed to be nice today too, so hopefully a repeat.

    5/11: 197.8

    5/12: 197.8
    I seem to be โ€œstuckโ€ at this number. I think itโ€™s because I donโ€™t get enough movement in. The work week is over for me, so hopefully a walk today and planning the menu for Mothers Day. I am still very very fatigued like I was last week and I think one of my medications is the culprit.
    Have a lovely day lovely ladies!

    5/13: 197.8
    Can I get a woosh? The scale keeps settling at 194 for a few seconds then jumps up to the 197.8, kind of frustrating! No walk yesterday, the fatigue took my day over. I have a note into my doctor.

    @ddainiak I think eating out is hidden salt, almost no matter what you choose.
    Thatโ€™s quite a 2023 goal but I love it! I have a FitBit but I really only use it as a reminder to get up and move every hour while Iโ€™m working, otherwise I would just zone in on my work and not get up. I used it last summer for swimming but I no longer have access to that pool โ˜น๏ธ I am a bit of a germaphobe so I canโ€™t see myself joining a community pool.
    Youโ€™re an inspiration!

    I am catching up with everyone's progress and enjoying all the puppy pics! From Monty to Nova and then Brutus and Woody - it gave me the warm fuzzies. We are hopeful to add some cuddle muffins to our house this summer, once we manage to switch up some rooms in our rental. We cannot afford to rent a larger home, so we are trying to create a bedroom in the basement for my oldest.

    I loved the zoo pic of the grandkids! And the quotes that have been shared are great too!

    The stress this past week has been my job. I am grateful that they gave me two days off for my grandmother's funeral, but since then, I am constantly getting, "Where is this?" and "Why isn't this done?" I've been putting in 60 hours a week to catch up on projects and hit deadlines that I realize now, are not realistic if they want me to produce quality work.

I can even binge on โ€œdiet foodsโ€ so I really need to watch my portions. Iโ€™ve been slowly moving my dinner later and later so I donโ€™t get so hungry later (I stay up very late). But I just donโ€™t feel like cooking at 9:00 pm so Iโ€™m in a pickle. I do have some prep cooked foods but donโ€™t want those every night. Gotta figure it out.

    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:
    ๐Ÿ’ฅWalk 3x/week
    ๐Ÿ’ฅLose 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
    5/3: 199.7 ๐Ÿคจ
    5/4: 199.7
    5/5: 199.0
    5/6: 199.0
    5/7: 198.7 *walked*

    5/8: 197.8 (!)
    Itโ€™s a new week. Iโ€™m going to try really hard to go for a walk or at least get my steps in 3 days this week. Iโ€™ve been feeling really tired so itโ€™s a delicate balance.

    5/9: 197.8
    I am feeling much more lively and promised myself I would only work 10 hours yesterday and go for a walk after. That did not happen. I ended up working 13 hours and it was raining and dark by the time I got done. Mondays are always crazy at work but I need to work on firmer boundaries. Set my work status to โ€œNo.โ€ ๐Ÿคจ

    5/10: 197.8 *walked*
    Well that work boundary thing didnโ€™t work out great yesterday but I wonโ€™t bore you with details.
    I did great with calories and steps (for me) yesterday and the weather is supposed to be nice today too, so hopefully a repeat.

    5/11: 197.8

    5/12: 197.8
    I seem to be โ€œstuckโ€ at this number. I think itโ€™s because I donโ€™t get enough movement in. The work week is over for me, so hopefully a walk today and planning the menu for Mothers Day. I am still very very fatigued like I was last week and I think one of my medications is the culprit.
    Have a lovely day lovely ladies!

    5/13: 197.8
    Can I get a woosh? The scale keeps settling at 194 for a few seconds then jumps up to the 197.8, kind of frustrating! No walk yesterday, the fatigue took my day over. I have a note into my doctor.

    5/14: 197.0
    Happy Motherโ€™s Day to all you moms out there! Dog, cat, human or otherwise! Hope your day is special! ๐ŸŒธ

I vowed to take this year to lose weight, get healthy, give up some bad habits, exercise, read more, etc. I started a few challenges last month to see which ones I liked, this is one that kept me accountable so I am back! Looking forward to see what May brings!

    Start Weight: 227
    Goal Weight: 160

    January weight Lost: 9 Pounds
    February weight Lost: 5 Pounds
    March weight Lost: 5 Pounds
    April weight Lost: 8 Pounds

    My goals for May:
    Lose 4 Pounds โš–๏ธ
    Log 50 Fit Bit Miles Per Week ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ
    Read 1/2 Hour each Day (at least 5 days/week) ๐Ÿ“–
    Knit 1/2 Hour each Day (at least 5 days/week) ๐Ÿงถ

    ๐ŸŒปMay ๐ŸŒป

    1 - 200.2 - Very close to Onederland - hoping to get there this week! ๐Ÿคž
    2 - 199.8 - ๐Ÿ˜Made it! Now to keep it there!
    3 - 200.0 - :s
    4 - 200.0 :s
    5 - 199.6 - :) Well let's try this again!
    6 - 199.6 :|
    7 - 199 - ๐Ÿ˜ Woo Hoo! Don't know how that happend, but I'll take it.
    8 - 199.4 - :s
    9 - 198.6 - ๐Ÿ˜
    10 - 197.2 - ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ That one deserves a double Woo Hoo! Probably be up tomorrow! LOL
    11 - 198.2 - :s Called it! But I still like the May trend. Have a couple of challenging days ahead. My daughter is coming over tomorrow night. We are celebrating her birthday and Mother's day. She is spending then night, and then we all will go to my Mom's to take her out for breakfast for Mother's day. Hoping to make some good choices.
    12 - 197.6 :| Thinking that scale was wrong on Wed; but getting back there.
    13 - 197.8 :s What I expected. Went out with the family last night for dinner. Didn't really think I overdid it, tried to estimate the calories for MFP, and was under calorie range, but think that it was probably salty. Have breakfast with Mom this morning, then I hope to eat light the rest of the day, and get in my excercise, walk Monty. Hoping it's down tomorrow.
    14 - 196.6 ๐Ÿ˜

    @39flavours How long have you been on this weight loss adventury. Did you start in January, or before? What is your ultimate goal? Where you are is where I hope to be someday, just wondered what your journey was.
