    2024 Goal: 166 lb
    SW 6/1/24 179.3
    Seven months to lose 13.3 pounds.

    June 3, 2024 179.1
    June 10 goal 178.6 actual 179.1 “Patience, Lil Grasshopper!” Maintenance is better than a gain.
    June 17 goal 178.1 actual 180.2 Eegads!! Wrong direction. Up 0.9 in 17 days

    Exercise is going great, but as @itladyee …the food matters. Need to get my food locked down now that exercise and sleep are excellent.

    Was gone at camp all week for summer staff training and didn't track well - Back up to 188.6 this morning. I will be done again in the next three weeks though!

    186.8 today.

    36.8 lbs to go, 26 weeks left in the year.

    I'm the opposite from you @MadisonMolly2017
    Food is easier for me to lock in, it's the exercise and especially the sleep routine that I can't quite seem to get down. But baby steps! I'll get there.

    Hello everyone! I'm jumping back in here with a new Day ONE because I need a fresh start. We have six months remaining for this year and I'd like to get my weight down to 140 (BMI 25) or less by then.

    My all-time highest weight was 217.0 lbs. on February 29th, 2008. My height is 5'3" and I will be turning 66 on August 18th of this year.

    I will post my scale app stats weekly, beginning Monday, July 1st.

    Following my first weigh-in tomorrow morning, each Sunday I will report lbs. lost for the week and lbs. lost since my restart weight on July 1st, 2024.

    I will check back in tomorrow morning.

    Very best wishes for a wonderful summer!

    Let's DO this!

    Welcome everyone!

    I'm so glad we are sharing this journey! I will be copying and posting my postings from other boards to save time, but modifying to suit each. Like many, I have closed and reopened my MFP account more than once, but I remember my all-time highest weight.

    HIGHEST WEIGHT AND DATE: 217.0 lbs. on 2/29/2008
    MY CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT FOR THIS CHALLENGE: 157.0
    MY WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: 17-25 lbs. (WT: 132-140 lbs. by 12/31/2024
    JUL 01: 157.0

    I will post each week's Sunday weigh-in (with new stats) on the following day, until the final weigh in for the challenge, Tuesday, 12/31/2024.

    Today's steps: 11,684 (6.12 miles). My commute pace (to and from work) averages >4mph.

    Have a great evening,
    💗 Carole

    Hi everyone,

    I got "sticker shock" when I stepped on the scale this morning! I was "good" until the 4th, but then: "Blame it on the barbecue!" (Plus, I had trouble "reining it in" on Friday and Saturday.) On the plus side. I had no alcoholic beverages at all.

    I will hold off reporting until tomorrow, Monday, July 8th. Hopefully, the scale will then show that I at least maintained, once I get rid of all the excess fluid and sodium. (I will report my stats regardless.)

    Enjoy your day and have a great week!
    💗 Carole

    My Mantra(s):
    Things I need to remember daily!

    🏋🏾‍♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
    Eat well 🥗to Live Well 🚢✈️🧳
    H2O - Make it Flow 💦💦💦
    Lose weight in the kitchen ⚖️, get fit in the gym🏋🏾‍♀️

    Note to Self: Alcohol kills weight loss as the focus is burning alcohol calories and not fat calories!

    Closed on my home: 6/25 with intermittent moving through 6/27
    Big Move on 6/29
    Unpacking: Indefinitely!!! :)

    I'm all over the place right now. Usually, ending the day with wine, not tracking food, and not intentionally exercising. I've given myself grace through the weekend to regroup with everything and then buckle down on all accounts until the end of the month. Then it's vacation time :)

    @MadisonMolly2017 A little bit of an artist. A poet and an amateur photographer. Not by trade though; I work in financials for nonprofits :blush:

    Today I'm back down to 187.2 after hitting 188.8 over the holiday week. Sigh. But I'm resuming my diet and exercise plan that I know works for me tomorrow and that I know makes me feel better. This time it's going to need to be less of a "diet" mindset and more of a "this is my lifestyle" mindset, because I know it works for my body and my mental health!

    Hi everyone,

    Below are my initial, "Do-Over" stats:
    3ehaka9si46x.png
    It's a bit disappointing, but at least I didn't go back up into the 160's. Today is three weeks until my birthday. I hope to lose at least five pounds by then.

    Have a great week!
    💗 Carole

    For reference, I use a Renpho scale and the original app it used (not the Renpho Health app) which I don't like as well. I got it on Amazon and now it's only $23.99 with a 10% discount! It's the best selling body composition scale, I believe:
    RENPHO Smart Scale for Body Weight, FSA HSA Eligible, Digital Bathroom Scale BMI Weighing Bluetooth Body Fat Scale, Body Composition Monitor Health Analyzer with Smartphone App, 400 lbs - Elis 1 https://a.co/d/aud0Hu4
