    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 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 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)- Yesterday everything was on point—diet, exercise, water, Potty. I wish everyday fell in line like that but that is not typical of my normal day. I had no handymen, no babysitting, no kids stop buy (with treats), no invitations from friends to go have lunch or dinner, it was a care-free day of self focus. Yesterday was one of the lower calorie/carb days on the zig-zagging I am doing so I’m not surprised to see the scale a bit more down because of that. It certainly likes to tip up a bit on the scheduled higher days so fair enough!

    Hi everyone! (Thanks for starting this up for October, Jill!) I'm IN and plan to log, weigh and check in daily.

    My name is Carole and I live and work in metro Boston (MA). I’m 65, 5’3” and I live alone. I still work full-time (in Cambridge).

    My goals for October:
    -Weigh-in daily; lose 5 lbs.
    -Log daily and consistently.
    -Housework: Cleaning, decluttering, downsizing for potential move (after 40 years).
    -Avoid any and all consumption of alcoholic beverages (Will note this as "NO ETOH").
    -Limit calories to 1,500/day (or less).
    -Exercise at least 30 minutes, at least five days per week.

    Best wishes to all for a healthier Fall!

    10/01: 152.4 lbs.

    Good morning everyone. It is getting cooler here in Eastern WA state and my outdoor sports are coming to an end. I'm going to an indoor batting cage today for some softball fun Also, this is pine needle pick-up month for me. I took 340 pounds of pine needles to our waste-to-energy plant yesterday. That is just the beginning. I will have lots more of what I call FUNctional fitness to do before the pine trees finish shedding.

    I love this supportive group. I'm a 46 year-old, 5'4" 2-time cancer survivor mom of four who always has some new ailment each month. Lol. I will check in when I can, but life has been really challenging these past few weeks. Struggling financially means extra mental stress and lots to manage and struggling physically creates lots of appointments and PT to manage as well. I am not focusing on weight loss this month, but on maintaining what I have lost by not caving in to emotional eating by walking everyday and finding a Zen moment everyday as well.

    10/01: 182.5 - coached Girls Rugby, so lots of walking and running.
    10/02: 182.3 - I have a second round job interview today. Trying to stay calm.

    @BittersweetVita One step closer to getting that position. Good luck to you today. I hope the outcome is everything that is meant to be for a wonderfully happy and healthy you!

    Starting weight September 1: 141

    Goal weight for October: 132.8


    October 1: 136.2
    October 2: 137.0 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!
