    G'day all. I'm Adam from Tasmania. I started around 142kg late last year and made good progress.
    Lately, I've been stuck in a bit of a holding pattern. I got lazy with logging my food.
    Time to get back under control.

    I dropped my phone a few weeks ago so June logging ground to a halt. I finally bought myself a new phone last weekend.

    01/08/2022 - 142.2 kg (Starting Point)
    17/06/2023 - 122.6 kg (Lowest Point)
    ...
    01/07/2023 - 122.5 kg
    02/07/2023 - 123.8 kg
    03/07/2023 - 123.5 kg
    04/07/2023 - 123.3 kg
    05/07/2023 - did not weigh
    06/07/2023 - did not weigh
    07/07/2023 - 125.5 kg (eek)
    08/08/2023 - 124.4 kg
    09/07/2023 - 124.6 kg
    10/07/2023 - 124 kg
    11/07/2023 - 123.7 kg

    Hi, Everyone! 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. I am currently dealing with sciatica and muscle deconditioning, which means I need to focus on calories in and out while I am recovering by building flexibility and strength through physical therapy. I have had a rough couple of months with my current muscle issues, losing my grandmother, losing my job, and my husband trying to recover from cervical fusion surgery, but I am grateful to have a new month to start again and keep the hope alive!

    Goals for July:
    1. Find a great new job and enjoy this extra time with my kids.
    2. Create a meal plan for myself and my family.
    3. Daily PT and walking.
    4. Organize and minimize my house and belongings.

    Weight Tracking for July:
    7/01: 190.7
    7/02: 188.5 - Surprise there.
    7/03: DNW
    7/04: 185.7 - Weight loss due to sickness.
    7/05: 188.1 - Rehydrating and eating solid food again.
    7/06: DNW
    7/07: DNW
    7/08: DNW
    7/09: 189.6
    7/10: DNW - sick last night
    7/11: 187.8 - Dehydration I believe and not weight loss.

    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” 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.
    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 June 30th): 198.2
    Goal: (Five lb Loss) 193.2
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx


    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.


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

    07/08-195.8-(Trend Weight 196.7)-

    07/09-195.6-(Trend Weight 196.6)-

    07/10-194.4-(Trend Weight 196.4)- Whoop, there it is! Was looking for it yesterday but it was nowhere to be found! Today is travel. That is always dangerous with the diet and activity and I wish it was on a different day since I’ve hit a weight that I haven’t been at (or maintained more than 24 hours) since late May. Ugh. Today I need to focus on BOTH choices and portion control. My mini-goal is to make it back into the 180’s by the end of summer (Labor Day). I did not succeed in my last mini-challenge. I’d like to make this goal. I really want to show my endocrinologist that I can control my blood sugars without insulin. In the 180’s my glucose levels and A1C will be much improved. In the low 170’s or high 160’s I’ll probably go into remission and not need treatment at all (no more diabetes!) I really have a pot of gold at the end of this rainbow. I just need to reach for the stars. I’m down 3.8 lbs so far this round. That is remarkable for me. Gotta keep going! I am enjoying and appreciating all the inspirations I am getting from this group.

    07/11-197.8-(Trend Weight 196.5)- Traveled yesterday and actually did pretty good while out of town. I watched my portions. I also found a walking park located at the hospital and walked the path ( 1.5 miles) after lunch. However, when I got home I got into my all-or-nothing mode and my self-sabotage mode all rolled up into one. Is it even POSSIBLE to gain 3 ½ lbs overnight? It can’t be all fat! I’ll drink plenty of water, hope for TMI and watch every bite today. I am worth it, I am worth it, I am worth it.

    I'm home. Had a wonderful time but am glad to be home. Too much food, too much alcohol. I didn't weigh today but have to do it tomorrow for another challenge I am in. Hopig it isn't too bad, but am back to the grindstone today.

    I have a lot of reading and catching up to do - but wanted to give a shout out to @jm216 Looking good! 😁

    @jm216 - Wonderful progress! Congrats!
    @ddainiak - Glad to hear you had a wonderful trip!
    @deepwoodslady - Hang in there. There has to be something that caused such an uptick that will even itself back out. Pushing fluids sounds like a good idea.

    Hi! I’m a grandma of 8 from Canada. I live near my kids and help out babysitting a fair bit. I was never overweight when I was young, but have probably been obese off an on for the past 20 years. Something changed in my mental outlook about 4 months ago when my doctor told me I was now diabetic. She had previously warned me, but I just didn’t pay attention. I listened this time and am taking it seriously. I’m determined to get healthy.
    My goal is to be able to stop taking several prescribed drugs, and lower blood sugar levels. I believe it will take me over a year to do this, but I’m going to do it. I was always healthy before I got fat. I have over 100 lbs. to lose. I’ve already lost 30 in the last 4 months, decreased my bp medication, and my blood sugar level has decreased significantly.
    I’ve made lifestyle changes, and I’m counting calories most days. I’ve started swimming more. Recently, I even travelled for the first time in years.

    Starting weight: 230
    Goal weight: 130 (maybe less)
    Height: 5’2”

    July 3: 202 lbs.
    July 4: 201

    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.


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

    07/11-197.8-(Trend Weight 196.5)- Traveled yesterday and actually did pretty good while out of town. I watched my portions. I also found a walking park located at the hospital and walked the path ( 1.5 miles) after lunch. However, when I got home I got into my all-or-nothing mode and my self-sabotage mode all rolled up into one. Is it even POSSIBLE to gain 3 ½ lbs overnight? It can’t be all fat! I’ll drink plenty of water, hope for TMI and watch every bite today. I am worth it, I am worth it, I am worth it.

    07/12-196.4-(Trend Weight 196.5)- Well, that weight just rushes right in but dilly dally’s off, now doesn’t it? Down 1.4 lbs today. Normally that would be good but with an overnight gain {yesterday weigh-in} of 3 ½ pounds, I’m a little pi$$ed. But I guess that’s what happens when you eat pasta for dinner and cereal for a late night snack. I earned it fair-n-square. On my way back down though. Just trying to stay positive here.

    I’m a cruncher by nature, so on the way to work I’ll pick up a veg tray as my chip substitution for the next few days.

    Plus, swimming makes me ravenous! I need these easy healthy snacks to conquer the munchies!

    Hi, Everyone! 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. I am currently dealing with sciatica and muscle deconditioning, which means I need to focus on calories in and out while I am recovering by building flexibility and strength through physical therapy. I have had a rough couple of months with my current muscle issues, losing my grandmother, losing my job, and my husband trying to recover from cervical fusion surgery, but I am grateful to have a new month to start again and keep the hope alive!

    Goals for July:
    1. Find a great new job and enjoy this extra time with my kids.
    2. Create a meal plan for myself and my family.
    3. Daily PT and walking.
    4. Organize and minimize my house and belongings.

    Weight Tracking for July:
    7/01: 190.7
    7/02: 188.5 - Surprise there.
    7/03: DNW
    7/04: 185.7 - Weight loss due to sickness.
    7/05: 188.1 - Rehydrating and eating solid food again.
    7/06: DNW
    7/07: DNW
    7/08: DNW
    7/09: 189.6
    7/10: DNW - sick last night
    7/11: 187.8 - Dehydration I believe and not weight loss.
    7/12: 186.7 - Still thinking dehydration, but will keep my eyes on this.
    7/13: 186.5

    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” 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.
    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

    07/13-195.2-(Trend Weight 196.4)- I’m still chasing my tail trying to get back down to my day 26 weight before the travel and nighttime binge. Making good progress though. Today is my son’s haircut appointment at my salon. I will take him to lunch afterward. This is a custom we have been doing since he was a kid. Be good at the hairdressers and you get to go out to lunch/dinner. With his autism, he is a child at heart and still expects these practices. Eating locally is usually a bit boring as it’s the same old tired menu they’ve had for the 24 years I’ve been here. I’ll either skip it or order what I know works for me. I really want to undo the damage that has already been done. Yesterday I danced for the first time in awhile. The first two songs left me a bit breathless as my heart tried to keep up, but then it stabilized. I also biked and did my strength training. I can still make my goal for July if I stay focused.
