    Hello I'm Darlene and have been with this group for a few months now; my favorite support group on MFP. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty).

    My goals for October๐Ÿ‚ :
    Lose 4 pounds (always my goal) - BUT I am only 6 pounds away from getting out of the obese category - so setting a stretch goal to get there by the end of the month. Usually if I announce something I do it so . . . .. fingers crossed. โš–๏ธ
    Hit my orignal 1,960 mile goal. I am on a mission to get 2,023 miles in 2023, when I first started my goal was 1,960 - a good year. When I realized that I would achieve this early changed it to 2,023. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ
    17K Steps daily ๐Ÿ‘ฃ
    Drink 6-8 Glasses of Water Daily ๐Ÿ’ฆ
    Strength Train 3 days a week ๐Ÿ’ช
    Tai Chi or Some Stretching exercise 1 day a week ๐Ÿง˜
    Log daily ๐Ÿ“
    Stay under my calorie range ๐Ÿฅ—
    Read daily ๐Ÿ“–
    Do something creative or fun daily ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ

    Weight Loss to Date: 53.8 Pounds
    September Ending Weight: 174.2

    ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ‚Happy October!๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ‚

    Oct 1: ๐Ÿ˜ 173.8 A good start ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ“ ๐Ÿฅ— ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 2: ๐Ÿ˜ 173.4 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 3: 173.4 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ The Hogwarts challenge that I am in has an assignment this week to run/jog for 20 minutes. It doesn't have to be in one session. Years ago, I did the Couch to 5K and jogged a 5k on my 50th birthday (a time when I was almost at my goal weight). I thought about doing that again, but when I tried earlier this year my knees couldn't take it. I thought I would try again when I lost 60 pounds - I'm not quite at 60, but close - I guess this was a sign that I should try again. Yesterday I did day one, and it was fun. Keeping my fingers crossed because I really did love it.
    Oct 4: 173.6 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ

    Oct 8: 172.6 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐ŸŽฎ Happy with that - went out for a nice lunch, had a couple beers - it might be a day lag for the uptick - but happy that it stayed the same today.
    Oct 9: ๐Ÿ˜ 172 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŽฎ Not a very good night sleep - couldn't fall asleep so go back up - read, knitted, played games on my phone - finally went to bed at 3:00AM, and back up 6:00AM. It's bingo night with Mom tonight so up later than usual - thinking I'll need to take a nap today - we'll see how that plays out on the scale tomorrow.
    Oct 10: 172 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ“– ๐ŸŽฎ First day in forever I missed my calorie goal. Just a couple 100 over, but over just the same. It is my sister's birthday today - so had cake last night at bingo which put me over the top.
    Oct 11: ๐Ÿ˜  173.2 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŽฎ I guess Monday's overage, lack of sleep, and the fact that I was over on my sodium goal yesterday got me.
    Oct 12: 172.8 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿง˜ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 13: 172.8 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ–๏ธ
    Oct 14: ๐Ÿ˜171.6 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿง˜ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ–๏ธWell that was a nice surprise. It will probably be short lived. Going out to dinner tonight with the whole family. My sister was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in the spring. She has finished her treatment and after surgery and three rounds of chemo - they think they got it all. Going out to celebrate. Going to Japenese Hibachi - am going to figure out this morning how to count it so that I can determine what I can eat for breakfast and lunch. Hoping to still stay under the calorie goal - but am sure the sodium will be over the top.

    Starting weight September 1: 141

    Goal weight for October: 132.8

    October 1: 136.2
    October 2: 137.0 I logged ๐Ÿ‘ Wow, my weight can really spike up quickly. On Sept 30 I was 134.8. Now 2.2 lbs higher. But this is not a surprise. On Sept 30 my mom took me out to lunch; and the mac & cheese was sooooo bad. I just had to go home and make mac & cheese to go with dinner, the proper way, with all the butter and flour and cream cheese and buttery bread crumb topping. And I ate too much of that mac & cheese. And then yesterday we had a long party with friends, and there was a ton of great food & wine. So I overdid it there. So, now back to the plan. My goal is to get back at daily logging & daily meeting my calorie goal, AND to drink lots of water. Cycle day 1 should be right about now too, so the weight could stay here or go up again. Just going to get back to the plan and try to stick with it from here!
    October 3: 137.0 I logged ๐Ÿ‘
    October 4: 136.8 I logged ๐Ÿ‘
    October 5: 135.2
    October 6: DNW
    October 7: 135.2 Had crazy crazy days both Thursday and Friday...
    October 8: 134.8
    October 9: 135.0 I've been super slack with logging. But I am signed up for my very first 5K tomorrow, so that's exciting. This will be a run/walk for me. For about a month I've been working on it and now I can run up to about 3-4 minutes intermittently with about 1-2 minutes walking, for about 25 minutes. I never believed I could run for 3 minutes straight, so this is a huge improvement. Hopefully I won't wake up sick or something (there is sickness going through the house.)
    October 10: 134.4 I logged ๐Ÿ‘
    October 11: 134.6 I logged ๐Ÿ‘
    October 12: 135.2 Awwww, I'm kinda disappointed.
    October 13: 136.0 -Sigh.-
    October 14: 135.8 Looks like today or tomorrow will by Cycle day 1... that seems to explain some things with my hunger and eating the last couple days and, uh, some moodiness, LOL! Perimenopause is interesting... I never know what's going on.

    Hi, I'm a 50 yo married female, 5'6", and tired of looking and feeling like I do. Iโ€™m making changes to get out of the Obese category, to look good in my clothing, and to have confidence in public again.

    Heaviest Weight: 221 | Ultimate Goal Weight: 165
    Starting Weight Aug 2023: 212.7 | Sep 2023: 207.1 |

    October Goals:
    Lose 2 lbs. | Consistently log food | Bike &/or Treadmill 4 days a week | Aim for 7 hours sleep/day

    Oct 1: 205.5
    Oct 2: 206.4 - A bit more sodium yesterday, and a piece of Naan. It was good, I'm just paying for it.
    Oct 3: 205.4 - Going to try a different workout, and focus on me today.
    Oct 4: 204.9
    Oct 5: 204.6
    Oct 6: 205.4 - Sodium up last night, but this will go down again. Feeling good overall.
    Oct 7: 204.9
    Oct 8: 204.0 - I expected 2 lbs up this morning, so that might hit tomorrow. We splurged a bit yesterday.
    Oct 9: 205.4 - Yup.
    Oct 10: 206.1 - Ugh. I have been off my exercise game lately. Definitely time to get moving.
    Oct 11: 205.4
    Oct 12: 205.1 - I am prioritizing the workouts this week. I want this number to go down.
    Oct 13: 205.6
    Oct 14: 207.1 - I even waited a couple more hours before coffee/meds to weigh myself, hoping sleep would trim this down. But no. Salty yummy food, I love you, and I hate you.

    Just a friendly reminder to you all because I care about you. Please donโ€™t forget to schedule your mammograms and do your self-checks.

    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.
    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250โ€™s; 240โ€™s; 230โ€™s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180โ€™s; 170's; 160's; 150โ€™s

    Starting Weight (from Sept 30th): 188.2
    Goal: 184.2 (Four lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx

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

    10/12-185.0-(Trend Weight 186.6)-

    10/13-185.4-(Trend Weight 186.4)- Iโ€™ll attribute my uptick to no TMI now x 3. Took some stool softeners yesterday but they have not helped produce. Lower tummy still hurting in spurts. I donโ€™t really feel that I ate anything differently prior to the onset. I know I was low on water so I will try to drink that down today again. Itโ€™s another cold fall day here. Gloomy with some rain expected again. Iโ€™ll have to fit in some indoor exercising again. Babysitting my DGS so I guess how much exercise I get in will be up to him.

    10/14-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- My DGS got me up very early. He was already full of energy and hungry for his pumpkin pancakes so I forgot to weigh before drinking my coffee. Yesterday I was over on calories and carbs due to foodie DD bringing fall treats so Iโ€™m sure there has been no progress. I did jump on the exercise bike late last night for 32 minutes even though it was a very busy evening and it was very late when I did it. I also canceled all my own planned snacks because of it. Today is scheduled to be a normal calorie & carb day on zig-zag so while there should not be a dramatic drop, especially after the goodies yesterday, Iโ€™m hoping it will keep any collateral damage at bay. I was polite yesterday but today I will not be eating any of her kind, thoughtful, generous junk.

    Hi! Hope its OK to jump in halfway through!

    Hope its OK to jump in half way through..

    I am Pam :) I have used MFP before and decided to jump back in. Joined the gym yesterday not to get back on track. Recently injured my knee and I can really feel these pounds on it for sure. I am 58 years old and work a busy job that is made up of 24hr shifts. One of my biggest challenges is structured eating plans since I am often awake at all hours of the day and night. It is motivating to watch everyone else smashing their goals :)

    Heaviest weight: 335
    Goal weight: 150

    October goals: Lose at least 2 pounds. Get back to the gym at least twice a week

    Hello I'm Darlene and have been with this group for a few months now; my favorite support group on MFP. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty).

    My goals for October๐Ÿ‚ :
    Lose 4 pounds (always my goal) - BUT I am only 6 pounds away from getting out of the obese category - so setting a stretch goal to get there by the end of the month. Usually if I announce something I do it so . . . .. fingers crossed. โš–๏ธ
    Hit my orignal 1,960 mile goal. I am on a mission to get 2,023 miles in 2023, when I first started my goal was 1,960 - a good year. When I realized that I would achieve this early changed it to 2,023. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ
    17K Steps daily ๐Ÿ‘ฃ
    Drink 6-8 Glasses of Water Daily ๐Ÿ’ฆ
    Strength Train 3 days a week ๐Ÿ’ช
    Tai Chi or Some Stretching exercise 1 day a week ๐Ÿง˜
    Log daily ๐Ÿ“
    Stay under my calorie range ๐Ÿฅ—
    Read daily ๐Ÿ“–
    Do something creative or fun daily ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ
    โš–๏ธ ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿง˜ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŽฎ

    Weight Loss to Date: 53.8 Pounds
    September Ending Weight: 174.2

    ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ‚Happy October!๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ‚

    Oct 1: ๐Ÿ˜ 173.8 A good start ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ“ ๐Ÿฅ— ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 2: ๐Ÿ˜ 173.4 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 3: 173.4 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ The Hogwarts challenge that I am in has an assignment this week to run/jog for 20 minutes. It doesn't have to be in one session. Years ago, I did the Couch to 5K and jogged a 5k on my 50th birthday (a time when I was almost at my goal weight). I thought about doing that again, but when I tried earlier this year my knees couldn't take it. I thought I would try again when I lost 60 pounds - I'm not quite at 60, but close - I guess this was a sign that I should try again. Yesterday I did day one, and it was fun. Keeping my fingers crossed because I really did love it.
    Oct 4: 173.6 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ–๏ธ ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 5: 173.4 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŽฎ

    Oct 7: ๐Ÿ˜172.6 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 8: 172.6 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐ŸŽฎ Happy with that - went out for a nice lunch, had a couple beers - it might be a day lag for the uptick - but happy that it stayed the same today.
    Oct 9: ๐Ÿ˜ 172 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŽฎ Not a very good night sleep - couldn't fall asleep so go back up - read, knitted, played games on my phone - finally went to bed at 3:00AM, and back up 6:00AM. It's bingo night with Mom tonight so up later than usual - thinking I'll need to take a nap today - we'll see how that plays out on the scale tomorrow.
    Oct 10: 172 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ“– ๐ŸŽฎ First day in forever I missed my calorie goal. Just a couple 100 over, but over just the same. It is my sister's birthday today - so had cake last night at bingo which put me over the top.
    Oct 11: ๐Ÿ˜  173.2 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿงถ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŽฎ I guess Monday's overage, lack of sleep, and the fact that I was over on my sodium goal yesterday got me.
    Oct 12: 172.8 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿง˜ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐ŸŽฎ
    Oct 13: 172.8 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ช ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ–๏ธ
    Oct 14: ๐Ÿ˜171.6 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿง˜ ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ–๏ธWell that was a nice surprise. It will probably be short lived. Going out to dinner tonight with the whole family. My sister was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in the spring. She has finished her treatment and after surgery and three rounds of chemo - they think they got it all. Going out to celebrate. Going to Japenese Hibachi - am going to figure out this morning how to count it so that I can determine what I can eat for breakfast and lunch. Hoping to still stay under the calorie goal - but am sure the sodium will be over the top.
    Oct 15: 173.4 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ“– Won't give myself a sad face - fully expected, but was a great night celebrating. Here is a picture of the family - Unfortunately missing Allyson, we were supposed to go last wekend but my nephew and hubby were still covid positive, so couldn't go. She had a wedding this weekend, so we missed her.

    Hi, I'm a 50 yo married female, 5'6", and tired of looking and feeling like I do. Iโ€™m making changes to get out of the Obese category, to look good in my clothing, and to have confidence in public again.

    Heaviest Weight: 221 | Ultimate Goal Weight: 165
    Starting Weight Aug 2023: 212.7 | Sep 2023: 207.1 |

    October Goals:
    Lose 2 lbs. | Consistently log food | Bike &/or Treadmill 4 days a week | Aim for 7 hours sleep/day

    Oct 1: 205.5
    Oct 2: 206.4 - A bit more sodium yesterday, and a piece of Naan. It was good, I'm just paying for it.
    Oct 3: 205.4 - Going to try a different workout, and focus on me today.
    Oct 4: 204.9
    Oct 5: 204.6
    Oct 6: 205.4 - Sodium up last night, but this will go down again. Feeling good overall.
    Oct 7: 204.9
    Oct 8: 204.0 - I expected 2 lbs up this morning, so that might hit tomorrow. We splurged a bit yesterday.
    Oct 9: 205.4 - Yup.
    Oct 10: 206.1 - Ugh. I have been off my exercise game lately. Definitely time to get moving.
    Oct 11: 205.4
    Oct 12: 205.1 - I am prioritizing the workouts this week. I want this number to go down.
    Oct 13: 205.6
    Oct 14: 207.1 - I even waited a couple more hours before coffee/meds to weigh myself, hoping sleep would trim this down. But no. Salty yummy food, I love you, and I hate you.
    Oct 15: 207.8 - This morning I definitely about threw the scale. Some of this is week-before-cycle bloat (clothes are tight when they were great 2 days ago). Some I assume is still sodium related. The rest is that I dared stray from eating salad and chicken and the 10 foods I eat all the time. Tomorrow I will 100% be back on plan. Today I'm giving myself a damn break. I'm grumpy. I'm tired.

    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.

    10/14-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- My DGS got me up very early. He was already full of energy and hungry for his pumpkin pancakes so I forgot to weigh before drinking my coffee. Yesterday I was over on calories and carbs due to foodie DD bringing fall treats so Iโ€™m sure there has been no progress. I did jump on the exercise bike late last night for 32 minutes even though it was a very busy evening and it was very late when I did it. I also canceled all my own planned snacks because of it. Today is scheduled to be a normal calorie & carb day on zig-zag so while there should not be a dramatic drop, especially after the goodies yesterday, Iโ€™m hoping it will keep any collateral damage at bay. I was polite yesterday but today I will not be eating any of her kind, thoughtful, generous junk.

    10/15-187.0-(Trend Weight 186.6)- One perfect day with just a couple of evening gifted goodies can do so much more damage that I ever imaged. Iโ€™m sure the glycogen has refilled in my liver and I am experiencing that water increase in my body, among other things. Yesterday was picture perfect. I just need to remember that the body has itโ€™s processes and this too shall pass. I am also still having some TMI issues that Iโ€™m sure is not helping. It will all work itself out. I just have to stay diligent and committed.
