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 Nov 30): 181.4
Goal: 177.4 (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.

12/03-182.0-(Trend Weight 181.9)-
12/04-181.0-(Trend Weight 180.8)- I am so incredibly sick right now. But it’s not affecting my stomach so I am still having to be very careful of what I eat. I’m trying hard not to eat comfort foods (which are all primarily bad carbs) because I feel sorry for myself. My chest is so full of phlegm. I can barely get off the couch. Yesterday I got a total of 911 steps and did not hit my 250 steps in any hour of the 13 rings. If December catches me, it’s going to swallow me whole. Trying to stay ahead of it but it’s so hard when I’m feeling this weak. It’s the Last Thing I Needed In The Month Of December. I can watch what I eat but I can’t burn anything off so it’s all in but nothing out in the form of expenditure.
12/05-180.6-(Trend Weight 181.7)- My goal today is to not self-sabotage. I will be home all day due to this horrible chest cold that just isn’t giving me any breaks. There is no excuse for me not to stick to my eating plan. My appetite is not being affected whatsoever so the battle rages on! Exercise, however, is still tough because I’m so weak. I have tested Covid Negative twice now. Yesterday I was finally able to at least get on the exercise bike for a leisurely stroll. I’ve pre-logged my food so I think I’ll be okay. I really need to dip back down into the 170’s so that all progress is not lost. I’m very close……

I’m a grandma of 8 from Ontario. I’ve been trying this challenge for awhile now. The last couple of months have been hard, however, I won’t give up.
My goal this month is pretty simple, to weigh myself everyday and to count calories. If I get some exercise it will be a bonus.
Starting weight in March 2023: 230 lbs.
Goal weight: 120 lbs.
Height: 5’2”
Total loss: 44.5 lbs.
End of Sept. weight: 187.8 lbs.
End of October weight: 188
End of Nov. weight: 186
Monthly Weight Loss:
March-10 lbs. (2023)
April- 8 lbs.
May- 5 lbs.
June- 4.4 lbs. (trip to Europe)
July- 5.6
August-7 lbs. joined a ‘challenge’
September- 2.6 lbs. ( sick)
October- (gained) .2 lbs.
November- loss 1.2 lbs.
December-
Dec. 1- 185.6 lbs. I was happily surprised that I lost weight in November, even a small loss. I basically kind of took a break from most exercise activities, stopped logging in my food diary, and ate unhealthy, fast food fairly often. It was a stressful time for me with family. I didn’t really make myself a priority which I know is important to do sometimes. I must learn to deal better with stress. I can feel my body missing the exercise, and hope to change that.
Dec. 2- 185.6 lbs. went for an early swim
Dec. 3- 185.6 swim
Dec. 4- 185 dance class- I’m desperate to lose and break this two month plateau. It’s a tough time of year to try and lose weight, but I’m very focused. I’m sick of seeing the same numbers on the scale.
Dec. 5- DNW

Hello I'm Darlene and have been with this group for a while now. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2023. 💖I wouldn't be where I am today without this group (along with a couple other challenges I am in); I am so thankful for their support and accountability. 💖
🤶🎄My Goals for December🎄🤶
⚖️ Lose 4 pounds (always my goal) - Will be tough this month, but am keeping it anyway
17K steps daily with one day of rest
📝 Log Daily
🥗 Stay under my calorie range
💪 Strength Train 3 days per week
🧘♀️ Tai Chi or Yoga 1 day per week
💦 6+ glasses of water
👣 📝 🥗 💪 🧘♀️ 💦
Highest Weight 228
November Ending Weight 164.6
Dec 1: 164.8 📝 🥗 💪 🧘♀️ Hello December!
Dec 2: 165 👣 📝 🥗 🧘♀️ 💦 My first holiday event this weekend. Greg and I are off to Newport, RI. We go every year this time of year. It is a city set on an island in Rhode Island. Really cute shops, great restaurants. They decorte the city for Christmas. We go and see the lights, do some shopping and our annual "Taste of Newport". We usually go to 5 different restaurants (Lunch, Appetizer, Dinner, Dessert and BF the following morning), and plenty of drinks with that. This will be the first year that I'm going since I started this weight loss journey. I am going to enjoy myself, but also going to try to curb that this year. We are thinking - just small plates for each and and/or sharing. I won't be weighing tomorrow, but will be back Monday AM to catch up.
Dec 3: DNW 👣
Dec 4: 167.2 👣 It could have been a lot worse. We had a wonderful time - back at it today. Hoping it comes off as quickly as the Thanksgiving gain did. Here is a picture of us on the balcony of our room - sunset and harbor in background. It was a beautiful day - almost 50 degrees.
Dec 5: 166.8 👣 📝 Bingo night with Mom, got home and was ravinous. Don't know why but the late night binge took place and I ate over my calorie range. It will probably show up on the scale tomorrow.
Dec 6: 166.8 👣 📝 🥗 🧘♀️ 💦7 -

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
December Goals: Bike 5+ miles/day Mon-Fri | 3,000 steps/day | Aim for 7 hours sleep/day
Dec 1: 205.6 Bike | Steps
Dec 2: 205.1 Bike | Steps
Dec 3: 205.9 Bike | Sleep
Dec 4: 207.1 Bike | Steps | Sleep
Dec 5: 207.0 Bike | Sleep
Dec 6: 207.8 - We ate a very late dinner last night, and it was a salty soup. Hoping this is much lower tomorrow. My conference call ran extra long last night so I didn't get to do my 1 hour of dance -- I missed it so much! So I'll be back to that tonight. It's very meditative and I feel so much better after.6 -

🎄December:
1: 203.4– Time to get all gears going. I’ve been really good getting on the scale everyday, but I have a hard time with consistent logging.
I’ve noticed that it’s easier on the computer than the phone, so my goal for December is to log every day.
2: 203.5– logged for breakfast… it’s the very beginning of getting back into logging, so I’ll take that as a win. Baby steps.
3: 201.6 not sure what happened… but I’ll take it. I weigh myself 4x then take the average… so we’ll see what happens tomorrow.
4: 203.6–there is the bounce back. It’s all good though. Taking carrots to work as my crunchy snack today, along with soup and salad. My goal is to log everything today. Happy Monday!
5: 201.3 I logged everything and it felt great!
Let go for 2 in a row.
6: 202.3 Day 2 of logging is complete! Let’s do 3!

Hello, I'm a busy mom and this is my 4th month with this group. I am slowly working my way to my goal weight.
My goal for December is to not get derailed by Christmas! This will be a challenge, because I love to eat ALL the Christmas cookies from December 25-early January. My goal will be to log from December 27-31, in addition to checking in daily.
Start weight September 1: 141.0 lbs
December start weight: 128.2 lbs
December goal: 126.6 lbs Considering Christmas, I want to be conservative with my goal, but I want to still have an overall loss for the month.
December 1: 128.2 I logged 🎄
December 2: 129.2
December 3: 128.8
December 4: 129.4 I logged 🎄 Had extremely busy days on the 1st & 2nd; went out to dinner at a restaurant; and have had some hormonal issues with my cycle starting. Hopefully this is the worst of the gain. Now I can get back to my calorie goal & logging.
December 5: 129.4 I logged 🎄

12/06-179.4-(Trend Weight 181.4)- So FINALLY, after multiple travels, a large food-infested birthday party and a Thanksgiving Feast, CRAWLING, Scratching, HISSING, begging, SNARLING, fighting, I am back into the 170’s. However, I need to see my 177 to feel firmly planted so that one meal, one social event, one travel doesn’t put me back over. Plenty of those are coming! I wish I felt better so I could get in a bit more exercise but I’m still full of phlegm and coughing badly. I’m doing my best to get up some of my Christmas Décor so at least I’m getting in more steps with more time on my feet and less time on the couch. Fa-la-la-la-la.

Thanks to all of you lovely people for your well wishes during my illness. While it hasn't "soothed" my rough throat from all the coughing, it has soothed my heart and that is always the best medicine and what heals the most! Thanks so much!5

@deepwoodslady - I see you've been ill too. Hope you're on the mend.
It's nice to catch up with everyone and see what activities you've been up to. I'm starting back up slowly. The fam and I took a walk to look at all the lights in our neighborhood. We're gonna print a map and mark a new route each night possible. 🎄5 -
@ManifestingToday I’m sorry you missed your dance class. I do a dance class once a week and understand how good you feel afterwards.
@deepwoodslady I’m glad you sound like you’re on the mend. Also, congratulations on getting into the 170’s👍. I hope to follow in your footsteps soon. Your weight loss is very inspiring.4 -
