❤️⭐️2024 Weekly Weigh-in Challenge⭐️❤️

Yay! A year long challenge! I need this to stay engaged and accountable. I like the weekly check in and the year long plan to be able to set realistic goals. I am a 58 year old NP with a pretty crazy work schedule. I work 24 hour shifts, so you can imagine I can be up and trying to manage eating schedules at all weird hours of the day and night.
Goals for 2024: log food daily, weigh in daily as possible, get to the gym at least 2-3 times a week and drink more water instead of diet soda!
I am going on vacation at the end of Jan-early Feb so I want to at least get a head start and start walking more comfortably. I injured my knee last month and am still working that out.
Looking forward to watching everyone's progress!

Hi everyone, doing my second check in.
8/01: 70.4 kg (155 lb)
15/01: 68.7 kg (151 lb)
Nice to see some movement as I wasn't sure I would but I did try really hard this week. I was able to have the space and time to do so, I am having some final reconstructive surgery this week after breast cancer so who knows, but I will keep trying.5 -
Morning, I've had a decent week, but I have made some bad snack choices at times. My meal prep is definitely helping.
My Goals for 2024:

🏊♀️ Swim 3x per week ✅
🏋🏻♀️ Strength train 2x per week ❌ (Unless I count the decorating I did climbing up and down a ladder)

Total weight lost in 2024: 8.9lbs4 -
Hello! I'm in my early 40s, and I live in the Northeastern USA. I've gained quite a bit of weight over the past few years, and I'd like to turn that trend around before it causes me any serious health problems. My primary goals for 2024 are to recover from a chronic injury and get back to a healthy (or at least healthier) weight by losing an average of 1-2 pounds per week.
Jan 1: 216.7
Jan 8: 212.3 (-4.4)
Jan 15: 209.2 (-3.1)
Jan 22:
Jan 29:
Total change for year: -7.5
Average change per week: -3.75
Week 1 reflection: I was pretty flexible in week 1, with calorie deficits ranging from 295 to 865 per day, and averaging 670 per day. Math/science suggests that's enough to result in about 1.34 pounds of fat loss, so I'm sure most of my loss this week was just my body flushing out water. I expect the progress on the scale to slow down considerably from here.
Week 2 reflection: I stayed flexible in week 2, with daily calorie deficits ranging from 395 to 816 and an average daily deficit of 648. This should equate to about a 1.3 pound loss, so I must still be losing water weight too. I have a few foodie friends visiting from out of town this coming Friday-Sunday, and I plan to eat at or above maintenance level with them before getting back on plan next Monday. So, I'm expecting the number on the scale to be higher next time I check in.4 -

179.
My name is Donna. I am 63 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall. My highest weight was 253 in 2016. My MFP start weight was 235 in 2018.
Start Weight (from Dec 31st, 2023 ): 183.8
Goal Weight: 179.8 (4 pound loss)
End of Challenge Weight: xxxxx
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)
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.
01/01-181.6-(Trend Weight: 180.3)-
01/08-179.8-(Trend Weight: 181.2)- I had quite the overnight whoosh. I shed a lot of water most of the day yesterday (for whatever unknown reason) and I finally had TMI (in the middle of the night) last night, all of which graced the scale this morning. It’s encouraging and just goes to show that we must be patient with our bodies and our results. If we keep up our good habits, it will show up on the scale and on the tape measure in due time.
01/15-183.4-(Trend Weight: 181.3)- I had to get a new scale this past week so I don’t even know how accurate the “whoosh” was at the last weigh-in. I started on the new scale at a much higher weight than I’d been seeing of late. A little may have been the unaccountability and self-sabotage as I waited for the new scale, but some of it surely was the difference in scales. My fat % is also MUCH MUCH higher on the new scales, consistently over the past couple of days since I received it from UPS. However, my visceral fat is MUCH lower. I’m confused but can only begin tracking my data now, where I’m at, and take it from here.
01/22-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
01/29-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
01/31-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

2024 Weekly Weigh-in Challenge
Hi, this is my first time in this challenge and I'm very happy to be here! I'm 66 YO, 5' 2" and officially overweight (again). I've been through the yo-yo weight gain and loss too many times and it's not healthy. I gained 15 lbs in the last year and a half, and if I don't change my habits I'm headed for worse.
My goal for 2024: to gradually lose the weight by changing the habits that hurt me and to learn how to integrate and maintain healthy eating habits for good.
My goals for this month:
* continue my exercise routine- which has been pretty good
* eliminate evening snacking- which is my downfall
* weigh every day- which I avoid and then gain
* log in here every week on Monday so I can't pretend the weekend is "free"! Starting weight: 146.5 Goal
weight: around/under 142

Hey everyone!! My name is Crystal. I just turned 40 last month. I started my journey again in October last year (2023) and lost around 13 lbs by Christmas. Got a little off track with the holidays, but I'm back on track now. Goals for me right now are to consume 1200 calories/day, watch my sugar intake and stick with around 70 carbs/day. It's so hard for me to do extremely low carb, but around 70 has been fairly easy for me. I feel so much better since I started this journey. A year long challenge sounds awesome! I'm a couple weeks late but I'll go ahead and post yesterday's weight (Jan 17th) since I did weigh and that will be my starting point. Good luck everyone! It's definitely inspiring to read your stories!

I've been through the yo-yo weight gain and loss too many times and it's not healthy. I gained 15 lbs in the last year and a half, and if I don't change my habits I'm headed for worse.

Needing some accountability so here I am! 42F/5.5"/149 lbs.
My lowest weight was 136.6 in July and my first goal is to get back to that weight.
Ultimate goal is 130 lbs.
I don't have the healthiest relationship with food and get obsessed over what I eat and tracking makes it worse so I've decided to be kinder to myself by just eating more mindfully and getting in some form of daily exersise. I've also been doing IF (18:6) and it's really helping with some of the "food noise".
I would like to weigh in weekly (Fridays) with everyone to keep track of results.
Jan 5 - 149.2 Weight hasn't budged but definetly feel better, sleeping better and less bloating from IF
Jan 12 - Too afraid to step on the scale. Signed up with a local weight loss center for help.
Jan 19 - 147 Still IF, AF and sticking to my eating plan. Feeling good

Start of challenge weight: 248lb
Week 3 was rough! I am preparing for an upcoming vacation so my work schedule was crazy. Worked a ton of hours since I will be gone for a week at the end of this month. I tried to weigh everyday but my posting just didn’t happen. I keep a log of my weigh in on my phone though to try and keep me accountable. Weight fluctuated up and down all week, but at least I ended on an even keel from last week. Hopefully I can make a little more progress before vacation starts at the end of this week. There is no way I won’t add a pound or two while I am gone (just keeping it real!) so at this point I am hoping to minimize the damage!
