    Weight loss contest

    Sherri from BC.

    Start weight 192 lbs
    3 month goal 175 lbs
    Feb holiday goal 170lbs.
    Final goal 150 lbs

    I think 10lbs loss is reasonable for me during this holiday season.

    Last weigh in Sept 25 183.4
    First weigh in Nov. 7 185.4

    November 14 185.4
    No loss but I'm ok with this as I ate way too much this week and thought for sure I would be up. Just finished all the leftover Halloween chocolates so should get back on track this week.

    My name is Donna. I am 63 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.


    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 12 pounds to land at 169.4
    CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM Oct 31): 181.4
    CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:



    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


    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.


    11/01-181.2-(Trend Weight: 184.5)-

    11/07-183.6-(Trend Weight: 184.3)- ) Scale weight is up from last week but trend weight is down. I guess that best shows how the week went, pretty up & down due to travel and a family birthday. I’m back on top of things now that I’m in my “safe space” – Home. Someday I hope to transfer all my good habits to everywhere I am, even when the choices are limited. I throw it all out the window way too easily.

    11/14-182.6-(Trend Weight: 184.1)- I was out of town for 2 days including an overnight and gained my usual travel weight from restaurants and sitting. I’m working it down now. I will be doing a ton of traveling from now until after Christmas. Especially with Christmas shopping since I am from a very very rural area. I really need to learn some travel manners! My goal was to lose 4 lbs this month and get myself firmly planted in the 170's. Instead, I am fighting tooth and nail just to get back to starting weight. And there's Thanksgiving, one of the biggest food holidays of the year looming just ahead. It is right there between me and my goal. No one said this would be easy but Sheesh!.......

    I've now been off Wegovy since August. I lost 22 lbs and gained back 3.4 since then so that is not terrible. I've been eating candy but been off all alcohol since mid October so at least not indulging in those empty calories.

    CW 152.2
    GW 150

    I feel like this is totally doable. I just need to continue to be mindful of portion control and evening snacking.

    @bduanemyfitness Hi! Sorry about your arthritis! I'm happy you are here. True, tracking is the key. Or at the very least weighing once a week.

    Giving up candy is the next goal. I have to if I want to maintain/lose a little more weight. Had a wine slip (I had been off all alcohol for 20 days) but back on track with that now. I know on Thanksgiving we all will probably eat more than we should but we should cut ourselves some slack and not be hard on ourselves.
