@haswlrs Good for you passing on the dessert! I saw that you were also the Gryffindor biggest loser - Woo Hoo!
@lauramavity7293 Very interesting concept. Do you eat as if sedentary, or did you adjust for exercise?
Thanks, Darlene! It's easy to be the biggest loser when it is your first week of starting again. Four pounds give or take of mostly water that first week will do it!2 -
Hi, I am Lisa. I am 57 years old, 5'5" tall and I live in Tillsonburg, Ontario. I am married with two grown sons.
It's time to get this weight off for good! My first goal is Onederland....again
30: 207.8, 31: 205.8, 1: 205.2, 2: 206.0, 3: 207.2, 4: 205.2, 5: 205.8, 6: 203.8, 7: 203.6, 8: 204.8, 9: 203.8, 10: 203.4
11: 202.8
I feel like I am in the zone... three pounds from my first goal.3 -
Although we just log our weight on this forum it does help encourage me to monitor other health markers. I have a Tanita scale that measures visceral fat, BMI, muscle mass, body fat and some other measurements. Although I don't have great faith in the accuracy of these measurements, they do serve as a baseline to access progress.
I've been showing progress in all of the above measurements including my blood pressure I've been logging daily since the end of September. The bottom line is all of the health markers I'm monitoring are trending in the healthy direction. I attribute that mainly to weight loss.
Week 1: 2.0 Lb Loss
Nov 8: 187.0
Nov 9: 187.0
Nov 10: 186.6

Hi, I'm a 50+ yo married female, 5'6", and tired of looking and feeling like I do. I’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
Nov 1: 208.3
Nov 2: 209.3
Nov 3: 207.8
Nov 4: 207.0

Nov 6: 207.8
Nov 7: 208.3
Nov 8: 206.1
Nov 9: 204.5
Nov 10: 204.6
Nov 11: 204.7 -- I biked for 15 min, and danced for 40 minutes at 120 bpm, which I think I want to continue with. It was good movement and it was fun.3 -
Hi All, I am a busy mother of five slowly working my way to my goal weight. During September I entered my "Normal" BMI category and am now about 10 pounds from my ultimate goal. This will be my 3rd month in this challenge. I had never weighed myself daily before this challenge, and I am finding it to be so helpful and informative to weigh and check in daily.
My goal for November is to NOT GET DERAILED BY THANKSGIVING. 🦃 🥧 😊 Let me tell you, I can really get derailed by a holiday. I may or may not log on Thanksgiving or the day after, and that's OK. But my Thanksgiving goal is to log daily from Saturday the 25th through the end of the month.
Starting weight September 1: 141.0
Starting weight November 1: 132.8
Goal for November: 130.4 Considering Thanksgiving, I'm setting my goal a tad on the conservative side.
November 1: 132.8 I logged 🍁
November 2: 132.8 I logged 🍁
November 3: 131.4 I logged 🍁 Very happy with today's weight. Over the past week there have been several days that I ate at maintenance, and a couple days I ate well over maintenance. It was hard to tell if I was needlessly eating more, or if I really needed the additional calories. I've already got my activity level set to almost the highest one, and I haven't even gone running or done any exercise for over a week. I guess I walk constantly around the house, dealing with the children and doing housework, always on my feet, and I frequently have to do up and down the stairs to deal with something or put something away, so maybe that burns a lot sometimes. For a while there I thought I was "failing" because I could not hit my calorie goal.
November 4: 131.0 I logged 🍁
November 5: 130.8
November 6: 132.2 I logged 🍁
November 7: 131.8 I logged 🍁
November 8: 131.4 I logged 🍁
November 9: 131.2
November 10: 131.2 I logged 🍁 Had a really bad day yesterday. Ended up overeating and eating too much chocolate. Hopefully it won't cause my weight to spike up. Today is a new day.

@lauramavity7293 Very interesting concept. Do you eat as if sedentary, or did you adjust for exercise?
I eat as if sedentary or even sometimes aim for BMR because some weeks I can only really get to the gym once…I aim for that calorie intake but it I do “ miss the mark” by a few hundred calories, it usually puts me at 1800ish which is still daily “right on” for someone at my weight (225ish) to have a calorie deficit. So going “over” 1290 (BMR) or even 1550 (sedentary) for 140lbs once or twice during the week doesn’t set me back much... What is that quote about aiming for the stars and you might just land on the moon?!?! It’s encouraging to see the weight coming off and for me…even when I’ve lost weight at a slower weight of 1-2lbs a week…it still has crept back up sometimes and hasn’t been a long term loss. I’m not really sure anymore how true that advice really is. (Just doing a lot of research and experimenting with trying to eat as if I would if I were already at my goal weight…my lifestyle and eating habits at 140lbs).4 -
@jm216 Your trick or treaters let you down if you still have leftover candy!
@zukppi75 Way to navigate the chaotic family visit yesterday with no real damage!
@ManifestingToday Way to add some fun dance moves to your fitness routine. If it's fun, you'll keep doing it!!
@stormywxs288 Very interesting about your other health markers showing improvement with your weight loss. More reasons to keep going!
@andreajlnhe Yes today is a new day. Hope it is going well for you!

Nov 1 ✔️ it is black walnut season so after work I spent over an hour picking them up. This morning I did treadmill and upper body.
Nov 2 ✔️ today I did a MFP workout video. It was the kettlebell lower body day 1. So many squats!!! I had to modify some but I pushed through.
Nov 3 ✔️- really proud of myself today. I didn’t want to get up and workout. My legs hurt from all the squats I did yesterday. I got on treadmill for 30 minutes
Nov 4 ✔️ weight- 193- my plan today is to clean out my garden and flower beds. My legs have hurt so bad today.
Nov 5 ✔️-weight- 192.6-I am glad for the loss but for having over 1700 steps yesterday and working so hard in the yard, I was sure I would have lost more. But I am learning the scale is just a tool it is not a definition of me
Nov 9✔️-193.6
Nov 10✔️-195- I am so discouraged. I tried the OMO app program. It is a cheaper version of Noom. So I have not been logging a lot with MFP. One thing I notice right away is MFP has this support system. I am so frustrated though as why my weight is going up again. Normally I would give up. But I am choosing to press forward.
Nov 11✔️- 195-I had a great day! Spent the morning with my daughter in law. And then in the evening my husband and I celebrated our 14th anniversary. I had a few extra treats today. I am focused and planning for the week.4 -

Hello I'm Darlene and have been with this group for a few months now. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). Been with this group since the spring - my favorite group for support!
My goals for 🦃November🦃 - simplifying them this month - too hard to keep track of everything last month
⚖️ Lose 4 pounds (always my goal) - bringing me out of the obese category and into overweight
👣 17K steps daily with one day of rest
📝 Log Daily
🥗 Stay under my calorie range
⚖️👣📝🥗
Highest Weight: 228
October Ending Weight: 169.6
Nov 1: 171 - 👣 📝 🥗 17K Steps Not off to a good start - but it's temporary!
Nov 2: DNW - 📝 4K Steps Tough day for eating and exercise yesterday. It was our monthly visit to my husband's 91 year old cousin who lives about 2 hours away. Leave at 5:30 AM - have breakfast and lunch with her (not good choices) and then a long drive back home later in the afternoon. We got back home at 6:00. Lovely visit, but it makes for a long day and I am exhausted when I get home. I hit the left over Halloween candy for dinner, no exercise at all, couldn't sleep (probably too much sugar). It's just a temporary situation (didn't I say that yesterday?)! Will get back to it today!
Nov 3: 170.4 👣 📝🥗 23K Steps Good day yesterday; everything on track and on my way back. As a reward for making my 2,023 goal hubby said to get the new Garmin Fitness tracker that I have been eyeing. It came a couple of days ago and I've been trying to figure it out; wearing both the Fitbit and Garmin. Today will switch to totally Garmin. Hubby is getting the Fitbit.
Nov 4: 170.2 👣📝🥗 20K Steps A slow creep in the right direction. Girls day at the casino today - my sisters and aunt are going. Wish me luck! I should still be ok. I'm eating my breakfast before I go, will bring a protein bar and fruit for my lunch and will be home for dinner. And I won't be drinking (I have to drive home).
Nov 5: 170.4 👣📝🥗 20K Steps
Nov 6: 170.6 👣📝🥗 21K Steps Ugh - I've been struggling to see a decrease this week. The only thing I can think of is that I haven't been reaching my water goal. Will concentrate on that today and hope for a whoosh!
Nov 7: 169.6 👣📝🥗 20K Steps Finally back to my October ending weight. Now to keep it below the 170s for good.
Nov 8: 168.4 😁 👣📝🥗 23K Steps My first smile this month! Woo Hoo! Guess who is no longer "obese"! 😉
Nov 9: 169.8 👣📝🥗 21K Steps Expected an uptick, and am actually glad that it is not more. Trivia Night last night (took 2nd place) - over my sodium goal and used all my calories from exercise.
Nov 10: 169.6 👣 📝 🥗 20K Steps
Nov 11: 169.8 👣 📝 🥗 22K Steps A slow creep in the wrong directiion. Went out to dinner, self sabatoge. Time to get back to it!
Nov 12: 169.4 👣📝🥗 20K Steps A beautiful day in Connecticut yesterday. After my morning walk, spent the day cleaning up the yard - harvested the last of the herbs (froze for later), cleaned up the garden, put away the summer yard stuff. Then relaxed the rest of the day. I'm reading Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes again before I go see the movie next week.4 -
