I didn’t quite make it to my goal, but I knew my weight loss would slow down below 2 lbs a month at some point, and it looks like that time has come. Onward! See you all in November.

No exceptions. No excuses. 🥑

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 Sept 30th, 2023 ): 188.2
Goal Weight: 184.2 (4 pound loss)

End of Challenge Weight: 181.4
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)




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.


10/01-187.2-(Trend Weight: 189.2)-


10/08-186.2-(Trend Weight: 188.9)-

10/15-187.0-(Trend Weight: 186.6)-

10/22-185.6-(Trend Weight: 186.2)-

10/29-185.6-(Trend Weight: 185.6)- Well, as you can tell by the nice drop in my trend weight, I did pretty good this week, until I didn’t (last night). I ended up going out to dinner with my DD and ordered everything wrong and then cleaned my plate. In the olden days, that would have made me a good girl. Nowadays….yeah, not so much. Hopefully lots of water and TMI will help me before my final end-of-month weigh-in two days from now. Ugh, chasing my own tail, yet again.

10/31-181.4-(Trend Weight: 184.9)- I got a little sick last night. I think I pushed the exercise too much for my heart condition. I won’t do that again. It will either be less minutes or break it into a set of two and do it at different times of the day. Down 6.8 lbs this much but a pound extra of that last night when I couldn’t eat my dinner. Nice round everyone. Now, let’s go slay November!


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

Just a friendly reminder to you all because I care about you. Please don’t forget to schedule your mammograms and do your self-checks.

🏈🍁🍂I’m a 5’2”, soon to be eligible for Medicare girl from the Pacific Northwest. Took a “break” from weighing and logging over the last few months… always a mistake! Gained back 6 or 7 pounds. Time to get back on track, one jug of water at a time! One pound a week seems like a good goal for October!🍂🍁🏈

October 1: 168
October 8: 165.8 - had a slow start to the week but trusted the process and my whoosh yesterday and today. I’m controlled over my diet but have to work hard to get steps in.
October 15:164.6 - have had a weird week. Have been on point with my food, water and steps but not many bowel movements and my body has clung to the same weigh range all week!!! This is the least amount of weight I have lost over a week since I started 54 odd days ago. But aim is to get to 160 by the end of the month and have another two weeks to lose 4.6 lbs 🤓🤓🤓
October 22: 166 😭😭😭 I have been down with a flu and cold this week. I KNOW I have eaten within my calories this week so my body has been holding onto this weight. I know it will eventually drop it once it decides I’m feeling better. I have looked at my previous weight loss weigh ins and the 168-164 lb range was hard for me last year too. It took me a whole month to move past 164 lbs - maybe that’s a weight where my body is set to be comfortable? Regardless there are 10 more days left to move the scales. I doubt I will hot 160 by the end of the month but 162 is achievable. Wish me luck 🫣
October 30: 160.8
October 31: 160.8

Total lost for October: 7.2 lbs, slighter shorter than target of 8 lbs but am now 23 lbs down since mid August this year. Onto next month!!! Another 7 lbs to lose to meet my end of year target!
