    Hello all, I'm backing out of this one because I overcommitted and I'm a little overwhelmed at work; so I'm forced to limit participation. Wishing you all best on the path ahead!💞🌻🦋

    Total loss for July Posting a day early; I will awake in the forest by a river, and my scale wouldn't work that well on the uneven surface... Looks like I'm down a pound for the month, and that's fab.

    My name is Donna. I am 63 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.

    Start Weight (from June 30, 2023 ): 198.2
    Goal Weight: (5 pound loss) 193.2

    End of Challenge Weight: xxxxx
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)

    Mini challenge: My monthly goal is always about 5 pounds per month. HOWEVER, I never seem to make that. I will continue to keep that goal because it Should Be achievable (even though it is not for me) but never say never, right? So, Between Independence Day Holiday (July 4th) and Labor Day Holiday (Sept 4th) I will weigh somewhere, ANYWHERE in the 180’s. I don’t care if it’s on the brim. I’ve got to start getting further away from the 200’s again! Starting Weight on 7/4 is 195.4.




    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.


    07/01-197.8-(Trend Weight: 197.4)- Today I am celebrating my son’s 27th birthday and my oldest grandson’s 17th birthday who were born on the same day. There will be food that is out-of-plan so the key will be portion control. A new month always feels so hopeful. I’m starting with a small drop on the scale which feels even better. Let’s make July a banner month, my friends! Good luck to everyone on your individual goals. Happy Canada Day to our Canadian friends.

    07/08-195.8-(Trend Weight: 196.7)- A nice drop since the start of July. I’ve already went through a holiday and two birthdays and some travel since the 1st of July so I’ll call myself proud so far…… Trend weight has been looking good too. I am on a new personal challenge for myself. It is listed at the top in red. On paper it is very do-able. In reality, um….well…..hmm…. Losing it is hard enough but keeping it, well…. That’s just a whole other ball of wax, now isn’t it? But I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it. For now, I’ve got to focus on inching that scale down in a healthy and sustainable way.

    07/15-196.8[/color=blue-(Trend Weight: 196.4)- The week’s weight has been up and down as is reflected in my lower trend weight. I don’t have a lot of plans this week for right now. If it stays quiet and there is not a lot of out-of-town traveling, I just might get somewhere healthier this week. My cravings for sweets has been rough and I’m failing A LOT of the time.

    07/22-195.6-(Trend Weight: 197.0)- It’s been a bit up & down all week (as reflected in my trend weight) but overall I am down from last week by 1.2 lbs. I haven’t had to travel for most of it and that always helps. However, I am still plagued by the incredible sweet cravings and I wonder if my artificial sweetners in my tea (monk fruit) is contributing to the cravings as they as so much sweeter than table sugar. I’m diabetic so it’s really a dilemma. I am really going to try and focus again this week on my meal times and food choices. I need continual progress with sustainable habits. I’ve delved back into a lot of research and its helping.


    07/29-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
    07/31-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-


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

    Not where I hoped I would be considering my higher start weight. I'm basically gaining and losing the same two pounds.
