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 October🍂 :
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. ⚖️
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. 🏃♂️

🎃👻🍂Happy October!🎃👻🍂
Oct 1: 😁 173.8 A good start 👣💦📝 🥗 🎮
Oct 2: 😁 173.4 👣💦💪📝🥗 📖 🖍️ 🎮
Oct 3: 173.4 👣💦📝🥗 📖 🖍️ 🎮 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 👣💦💪📝🥗 📖 🖍️ 🎮
Oct 5: 173.4 👣💦 📝🥗 📖 🧶 🖍️🎮
Oct 6: 😁173👣💦🧘 📝🥗 📖 🖍️ 🎮
Oct 7: 😁172.6 👣💦 📝🥗 📖🖍️🎮
Oct 8: 172.6 👣💦💪 📝🥗 🎮 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: 😁 172 👣💦📝🥗 📖 🧶 🖍️🎮 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 👣💦 📝📖 🎮 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: 😠 173.2 👣💦💪📝🥗 🧶 🖍️🎮 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 👣💦🧘 📝🥗 🎮
Oct 13: 172.8 👣💦💪 📝🥗 🖍️
Oct 14: 😁171.6 👣💦🧘 📝🥗 🖍️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 👣📝📖 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.
Oct 16: 173.6 👣💪📝🥗 📖 🧶 🖍️🎮 Ok, now I need to get motivated - been over my sodium goal three days in a row AND two days in a row not drinking the water - gets me every time.
Oct 17: 172.4 👣💦 📝🥗 🧶 🖍️🎮
Oct 18: 172.6 👣💦💪 📝🥗 📖 🧶 🖍️🎮
Oct 19: 172.6 👣💪 📝🥗 📖 🎮
Oct 20: 171.4 😁 Finally! 👣💦📝🥗 📖 🖍️🎮
Oct 21: 170.6 😁 👣📝🥗 📖 🧶 🖍️🎮
Oct 22: 171.2 👣📝 Started feeling crappy in the afternoon, got progressively worse - took a covid test - postive. ☹️ Might be out of commission for a few days.
Oct 23: 171
Oct 24: 173.4 Sat on the couch all day again yesterday. Feeling crummy - ate all the wrong things. It's just temporary.
Oct 25: 172.2 🏃♂️📝🥗🧶 🖍️🎮 Feeling a little better - got a small walk in yesterday. Thank you all for your kind well wishes.
Oct 26: 171.4 🏃♂️👣💦🧘 📝🥗 📖 🧶 🖍️🎮
Oct 27: 😁 170.4 🏃♂️👣💦🧘 📝🥗 🧶 🖍️🎮 Got in almost 11 miles yesterday on my fitbit; and my highest step date yet (26,830). I've only been over 25K a couple times this year. it felt wonderful this morning seeing the results on the scale. I've also been way under on my sodium goal which of course helps tremendously.
Oct 28: 171.4 🏃♂️👣💦💪🧘 📝📖 🧶 🖍️🎮 Went over on my calorie goal, hit the cookies last night after I woke up in the middle of the night. Today will be a tough one too, but fun. My daughter and I are going to see Potted Potter - a parady on Harry Potter. As many of you know, I am a huge Harry Potter fan, so this will be a big treat. Going out for dinner afterwards. Expect an uptick tomorrow.
Oct 29: 170.4 🏃♂️👣💦📝📖 🎭 That's a pleasant surprise. I had a simple breakfast and lunch, both small calories, but high in protein so I could save room for dinner. Still went over the calories, it might show up tomorrow. I need to resist all temptation between today and Tuesday to try to get those last .2 pounds to reach my monthly 4 pound goal. I can do it! The play was really cute and funny. Very silly; is it something you would see more than once - absolutely not. Should you pay more than $40 a ticket, nope (we got them for free - my sister got them as a casino compensation to lure her into the casino). But, that being said I thoughly enjoyed myself. I realized I didn't take credit for getting to 1,960 miles that was in my monthly goals. Met that challenge on October 25! 😉 I'm currently at 1,994 with a little over 28 miles to go.
Oct 30: 170.4 🏃♂️👣💦💪📝🥗 🧶 🖍️🎮 Bingo night with mom tonight, many will dress up for halloween, and they have fun activities tonight. I'm going to be a doctor, mom will wrap her head up in gauze and be my patient!
Oct 31: 169.6 😁 Woo Hoo! ⚖️ 🏃♂️👣📝🥗 🧶 🖍️🎮 Made my 4 pound goal by the skin of me teeth. Happy Halloween everyone. Resist those temptations! For the Hogwarts challenge that I am in we had to figure out the calories in our favorite candy or snack and then do a workout that burned more calories than that. It took an hour to work off a Baby Ruth. No, I didn't really eat it, but a hour work of exercise for 2 minutes of eating a candy bar - I'll think about that if I get the urge to get into the candy today.3 -

Our November challenge will be posted later this morning. 🦃2 -
🎃👻🍂October Reflection🎃👻🍂
Down 4.6 pounds this month, got my monthly 4-pound loss by the skin of my teeth, on the last day of the month AND entered a new decade. Hoping to keep in in the 60’s which was a wonderful decade (the decade I was born in). I was wishing to lose just .6 more pounds so that I could get into the “overweight” category, but alas that will need to be an accomplishment for November. I am down 58.4 pounds to date. ⚖️
I logged 209 miles on my Fitbit, 2,007 year to date. I should make my goal on Thursday. When I first started this quest, my goal was to get to 1,960 (a good year). When I realized that I would actually be able to meet that goal and then some, I changed it to 2,023. I met the 1960 milestone on October 25. Hubby said as a reward for completing he challenge I should get the new fitness tracker that I have been eyeing. I ordered a Garmin Venue SQ. I got it a couple days ago and I am still trying to figure it all out. Wearing both trackers at the moment until I feel comfortable letting the Fitbit go (and I actually meet my goal). Greg will get the Fitbit. 🏃♂️👣
I started the couch to 5K program again. This time my knees are cooperating, I just started week 4 of the program (I actually do two weeks of each round instead of one).
I read the second book of the Percy Jackson series; which was on my daughters shelf of favorites. Can’t really get into them, so haven’t started a new book. I decided to go ahead with the sweater anyway – and use it as a at-home sweater. That being said, I haven’t been as motivated to get it done. Thinking maybe I’ll find a pattern for a dog sweater and put my sweater aside for a bit! The "me time" is an easy one - I can easily find a few minutes to play a game on my phone, or to color a picture - to be honest, I do it too much and am actually going to take that off my goals for next month! 📖🧶 🖍️🎮
I logged and stayed under my calorie range most days in October, but covid stopped me mid-month. Luckily it was a mild version, and I was only out of commission for about 5 days. Met my water goal most days as well (something I really have to focus on to get done). 📝🥗💦
November should be a very proud month for me. When I first started this journey, I didn’t know how successful I would be. I had tried numerous times to lose weight without success. My goals were small. First to get to one-derland, then to get to “overweight” – I should meet that in November (my new goal to get to 140!) First to walk the Airline Trail (62 miles), then to get 1,960 miles, then to get to 2,023. I should meet that in November (my new goal 2,400). I am hosting Thanksgiving this year, but that should be my only obstacle in November - so, I am very much looking forward to November and all it should bring! 🦃

I just got back from Switzerland. My husband and I were there visiting our son for five days. I am feeling re-energized to tackle my health. We didn't see any obese people there. We did see many people jogging and riding their bikes and walking, of course. Going to jump back in so that I can hit the ground running for the November challenge.

@ddainiak I am so inspired by your story. Thank you for sharing. I do hope I am inspired enough to actually follow your lead!! I found out yesterday that I do indeed have a small tear in my meniscus. Physio is being recommended, possibly surgery, but really, losing weight will be the more effective course in the long run.

Starting weight September 1: 141
Goal weight for October: 132.8
October 1: 136.2
October 2: 137.0 I logged 👍 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 👍
October 4: 136.8 I logged 👍
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 👍
October 11: 134.6 I logged 👍
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.
October 15: 137.0
October 16: 136.4
October 17: 136.4
October 18: 135.6 I logged 👍. Could be worse, considering I haven't been logging and I keep eating too much. I keep getting hungry and eating over my calorie goal, and then I just throw in the towel. My goal for the rest of the month is to stop with that perfectionism and to keep logging even if I'm going to be way over on calories. Also, more protein in the early afternoon might help with my afternoon cravings.
October 19: 134.6 I logged 👍
October 20: 135.0 I logged 👍
October 21: 134.8 I logged 👍
October 22: 134.0
October 23: 135.8 I logged 👍
October 24: 134.4 I logged 👍
October 25: 134.2 I logged 👍
October 26: 134.2 Today and Sunday will be my challenges for the end of the month. MIL is serving us one of her big delicious dinners today, and Sunday we have a potluck plus a party. My goal for today is to enjoy MIL's dinner without going over my calorie goal, just logging with educated guesses from the database.
October 27: 134.2 I logged 👍 Yesterday I logged until dinner and saved as many calories as possible for dinner. Then at dinner I just tried not to overdo it.
October 28: 133.8 Yes! I did a little dance by the scale this morning.
October 29: 133.0 I logged 👍
October 30: 133.0 I logged 👍 Yesterday was a very nice day with a potluck plus a party. Logging was mostly educated guesses. I know I went over on calories and probably ate close to maintenance. Today my goal is to eat kind of light and drink lots of water.
I will share something I made that was a huge huge hit yesterday: Bacon Wrapped Smokies. They are so easy and really good. They are great for parties or special occasions. https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/69919/bacon-wrapped-smokies/ They are about 65 calories per smokie.

I’m a grandma from Ontario. 7 months ago my health really took a hit: diabetes, hbp, hardened arteries , arthritis, etc. Everything came on at once. I was heading for a stroke. Scared me into action.
I love this challenge, and the support and inspiration it brings.

Oct. 10- DNW. Went nuts last night with leftovers and sweets
Oct. 11 DNW leftovers
Oct. 12 DNW leftovers
Oct. 13 DNW leftovers
Oct. 14 187.4 damage is done, Holidays are tough. I hope I
handle Christmas better than I did Thanksgiving. I was good with the dinner, but not with the leftovers.
Oct. 15-30 DNW. (Took a break, difficulty with diet)
Oct. 31- 188 lbs. I can’t believe that I didn’t gain more weight this month. Even though I only lost .4 of a pound this month, I feel happy that I didn’t gain. I’ll weigh in tomorrow and see what happens. Kind of shocked considering my healthy eating habits went out the window since Thanksgiving. I went a little crazy. Also, I’m diabetic and have been dealing with some drug issues.
Sorry ladies that I didn’t check in the last 2 weeks. I’ll try harder for the next challenge. Congratulations to all of you that lost and did well. You’re an inspiration.🙂
Yesterday I attended my first, real, low impact aerobics class with a real teacher. (Not virtual). She’s an older lady that moved into my condo, but she has years of experience, and is very motivating. I’m thrilled she is teaching me. I’m the biggest one, stand in the last row, but I went even though I was nervous. A lot of the other women in the class are fit, tennis players, and a bit intimidating. However, I enjoyed the class immensely. I’ll go once a week from now on.

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.
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!

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.

10/30-183.0-(Trend Weight 185.2)- I started my journey weighing 253 lbs after quitting smoking in 2007. It is very difficult to admit that I have been horribly overweight for 16 years! After losing around 35 pounds on my own, I joined MFP in 2018. Today marks my lowest weight since 2018….183. lbs. And I have hit that number twice this month. During 2018 I also hit my lowest of 174.0 on October 4, 2018. I was so proud of that though I struggled to keep the weight in the 170’s and early 180’s. The covid shut-down really got me and up I ballooned, back to around 211/212. So back to the battlefield I have come to fight my obesity, my diabetes and all my weight related health issues. My next longer term goal is to get to 173 point anything to beat my lowest number in 2018. It will still be a long way off from my ultimate goal of the 140’s which, for most of my life (until I quit smoking), has been my normal weight. One stop on this train ride at a time, right? Next stop…..182’s. Today I will open the bags of little candy bars, mini rice krispy treats and yummy raspberry cereal bars to make the special bags of candy for my grandchildren. Everyone else coming to the door will be getting a Capris Sun drink pouch to help them along their thirsty little ways. I must focus on not eating any of those miniature candy bars, no matter how small and innocent they seem to me.
10/31-181.4-(Trend Weight 184.9)- I became pretty ill yesterday and I think it was from my exercise. I couldn’t eat much after that. For the last two days I have bumped my exercise bike up to 40-46 minutes instead of my normal 30. I do it in one sitting. Both days I’ve felt sick afterward and have ended up removing food from my pre-logging that I couldn’t eat. The one thing I learned from my cardiac rehab is to listen to my body. If it tells me something is wrong, then it is. Especially when exercising. So I am going to back down to 30 min or break longer amounts per day into 2 sets instead of one. I decided not to open the candy yesterday and make up the bags for the grandchildren. I was afraid it would be too tempting, so I will need to do that today. Even sick, I would eat chocolate. Even if it made me throw up later. I’m an addict. I checked my BMI this morning on a calculator that also takes age into consideration. I am at 30.3 which is still obese, but so very close to overweight. I need to be below 30. I’m excited to get there, hopefully soon! I’m down 6.8 lbs this month. My goal was 4 lbs but getting sick the last two days really pushed it much higher. Lots of progress for so many and I’m proud of us all. See you next round.

Donna, can you share the link to your BMI calculator? Mine doesn't seem to take age into consideration - and I think that would be a very important piece of the puzzle. Many thanks!0 -

@ddainiak Calculator.net They have a lot of calculators. The one I used was called the BMI calculator. In case you have trouble finding the exact one, here's the link to it with my info inserted. Just change it to your info.

There is also another calculator in calculator. net that is interesting. It's called the Ideal Weight Calculator. Here is a link to that, again with my info inserted.
