    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 63 years old and from 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


    This Challenge Starting Weight (from Feb 29th): 177.0
    Goal: 173.0 (Four lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx
    Total Lost/Gained this month: 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.

    03/24-182.6-(Trend Weight 180.5)- I enjoyed the birthday party yesterday, perhaps a little too much. I’m honestly surprised my numbers are not higher today. Plan-wise, March has been a bad month for me. I would love to turn it back around a bit before the month ends but I have several upcoming out-of-town trips coming up and that is never good. I’ll do what I can, when I can, where I can but my eyes are more on April.

    I have a chronic back injury limiting how I exercise and am recovering from a sprained ankle. So I have to be creative with exercise.
    My main problem is pain and emotional eating, because food fixes everything (if only)
    I have made this journey many times in my life, and hope to someday make it a permanent lifestyle change. My longest run maintaining a healthy weight was 9 yrs and then my world fell apart in 2015 leading to my highest weight of 203, and I have yo yo'd the same 30-50 lbs over and over again since then.
    Im tried of feeling sick and tired, my health is now being effected so it's time for a serious change.
    I know what I have to do, I just need to do it and stick to it!!!!

    I'm struggling with the scale. I know I'm building muscle and still having trouble with my bowels. And I'm still seeing positive changes in my body, the way my clothes fit and how good I'm feeling. But the stupid scale, trying not to pay it any attention, but boy is it hard, some mornings I just want to give up, but I won't!!!!! πŸ™

    Hey friends! My name is B - I live with my husband and two kids and work in community mental health. I've never not struggled with my weight, so I'm focusing on long term habits so I can live a longer and more active life with my family.

    Hi All,

    This is my 7th month with this group! I'm 5'2" and I've just hit my target weight of around 124 lbs. One of my goals at this point is to lose maybe 2 more pounds or so and figure out what my maintenance weight range should be. Another goal is to start running again.

    Original starting weight: 160 lbs
    Goal for March: 122.0 lbs ?

    March 1: DNW. I'm sick! I feel terrible. I am not going to weigh or log until I feel better.
    March 2: 122.6 ☘️ I logged. I was very sick yesterday and the previous day, and didn't eat very much. Today I am feeling a little bit better.
    March 3: 121.8 ☘️ I logged. Well I think my weight loss is because of my sickness, and I would like to stop losing at this point. I logged yesterday and my calorie intake was a little under goal but not super low. I'm going to increase my calories a bit. I am getting better but still sick. I am looking forward to getting better and getting back to routine, getting to my March goal of exercising, and also eating more than just chicken noodle soup and juice!

    March 4: 123.2 ☘️ I logged. Feeling better and I definitely have my appetite back.
    March 5: 123.4
    March 6: 123.2 ☘️ I logged
    March 7: 123.2
    March 8: 125.0
    March 9: 123.8 ☘️ I logged
    March 10: 124.2
    March 11: 125.2
    March 12: 125.8 ☘️ I logged. This is a very tough week for me to be trying to log and maintain my weight... But I'm going to have to commit to logging & hitting my calorie goal daily for the rest of the week because the number on the scale sure is gong up fast. I haven't yet decided what the lower end of my maintenance range should be, but I have decided the upper end is 124.8.
    March 13: 125.6
    March 14: 126.4
    March 15: 127.8
    March 16: 127.2
    March 17: 127.0
    March 18: 127.8
    March 19: 126.8 ☘️ I logged
    March 20: 126.4
    March 21: 127.0 ☘️ I logged
    March 22: 126.6 ☘️ I logged. I've been MIA, but I have been keeping up with my daily weights. The last couple weeks have been unusual for many reasons; now I'm ready to get back to it and get back to my goal weight. Logging was skimpy and my weight's been all over the place; so my goal for the rest of March is to just log daily. Forget the original goal of 122; I just need to log daily and get back to the goal zone.
    March 23: 125.0 ☘️ I logged

    I'm so excited to be back for March- hello to everyone! 😊 I'm Kat, 32, 5'1". I have 5 cats and live in the country. I think March will be cold and windy here, but I'm happy to be moving towards warmer days.
    Start Weight: 122.6 | Feb. Loss: 5.4lbs | Goal Weight: 100-110 (I'll know when I get closer and may switch to measurements)

    3/24: 115.4 A little bump, but I did have some soup last night and finish the last of my takeout. My knee was hurting yesterday so I might do one more day of no squats/lunges to make sure it's all better.
    3/25: 115.8 I hit my calorie goal yesterday so this must be the other days catching up with me. I started tracking protein and added more to my weekday meal plan.

    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx
    Total Lost/Gained this month: xxxxx

    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.

Plan-wise, March has been a bad month for me. I would love to turn it back around a bit before the month ends but I have several upcoming out-of-town trips coming up and that is never good. I’ll do what I can, when I can, where I can but my eyes are more on April.

    03/25-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- Early and all day/evening travel today. I’ll catch up on reading the posts tomorrow.

    Hello I'm Darlene. 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 found MFP in March and this group in April. Almost a year with some of these amazing people. πŸ’–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. πŸ’–

    πŸƒπŸͺ MARCH πŸͺπŸƒ
    March 01: 156.4 😁 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦ Busy day yesterday. For Christmas my husband makes a Daddy-Do list for Allyson. This year she wanted to convert her coat closet into a pantry. We got that done yesterday. I spent the day handing tools (kind of felt like a dental hygenist- LOL). In the down time, I helped her with her taxes. Spent most of the day there, had take-out for lunch. I did get my walk in before we went, and did a strength train session when we got home. I am tracking differently this month, so I went over my calorie limit a little if I don't count my exercise. Was happy with the scale today.
    March 2: 156.8 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ«€πŸ’¦Quiet day yesterday. Made some chili for dinner, the uptick is probably sodium. Figuring out this new tracking, it is really hard to stay under without my exercise. But I'll give it a try for a week to see how things go. I was very hungry, and had a protein bar late in the day which put me over.
    March 3: 156.8 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺπŸ’¦ Nice Saturday. Started the day with a 3 mile walk at our favorite trail. Started to sprinkle a little as we finished. It was kind of refreshing. Make a wonderful pot of chicken soup (I just love soup), and homemade bread for dinner. Cut back on the salt - it was delicious. I watched an episode of Skin Tight last night - don't ask me why - but I couldn't change the channel. It was so scary. Loose skin was/is a really big fear for me. I guess I came away feeling pretty good - as mine is NOWHERE near what they are experiencing and my hubby was wonderful - telling me I look fabulous!
    March 4: 156.8 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€πŸ’¦ It was a beautiful weekend in Connecticut, warm and sunny. Spent a lot of time outside enjoying the sunshine. It had a very busy week - of doing nothing! Don't know where the time goes - but life is just flying by.
    March 5: 156 😁 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦Another nice day in Connecticut, got in a 4-mile walk in the morning instead of our usual 3-miles. Bingo night with Mom - and didn't munch on any of the NUMEROUS snacks that they put on the table. Didn't win (I rarely do), but a good night. Mom was in good spirits - although gets quite frustrated when she doesn't win.
    March 6: 155.6 😁 πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ πŸ«€πŸ’¦ I gave myself a smile for the weight loss, but it was a sad day. A colleague from my old work place passed away. Heart attack at 50; he was one of those that you just had to love. Quirky, a wonderful sense of humor, treated everyone with respect, hardworking, and was so appreciative of anything you did for him. He will be missed on this earth by all who knew him.
    March 7: 155.4 😁 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦ Don't know where the day went yesterday - just flew by. We got our outside walk in before the raindrops, which was nice. Then before I knew it the day was over. Life is just "March"ing by and I'm try to catch up. Today I will focus on what I am doing instead of letting life just plass me buy.
    March 8: 154.8 πŸ˜πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€πŸ’¦ I'm doing the hard 75 challenge, in the challenge you are supposed to take a selfie every day. I just wanted to point out how important it is to take these on throughout your weight loss journey. I NEVER took pictures of myself. It was really hard to find a before picture. In the beginning of my journey I also didn't take any. Those around me (and myself) didn't see much difference because I've been taking it off real slow and they (and I) saw me every day. It wasn't until 50 pounds lost that l did an after picture. Please take pictures of yourself as you go through this process (you only have to share them with yourself) - It was so nice to see the difference and to know that all this hard work was actually working and noticable.
    Mar 9: 154.8 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦
    Mar 10: 154.2 πŸ˜πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€πŸ’¦Yesterday was our monthly visit to see Greg's 90+ year old cousin. Gone most of the day - but couldn't sleep the night before so got up at 3AM and jumped on the treadmill - at least I go my steps in. We eat out - so expected a up-tick today due to the sodium and lack of water while there - but I drank it all when we got home, so think that worked. I ate a very small dinner and made it under my calorie goal.
    Mar 11: 154.2πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦ Missed my step goal, got up in the middle of the night, couldn't sleep and had a snack. It has been logged - determined to work it off today (or eat light). I don't want to jeopardize my success the past week. I can do it!
    Mar 12: 154.2 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€πŸ’¦ I'm ok with hanging out at this number - but three days is enough. Time to make it move today (in the right direction) I didn't make it to Bingo with Mom last night - started out and then about 10 miles in there was a tree that fell across the road - couldn't get past it. I live on the other side of the Connecticut River from my Mom, and there not too many bridges that cross it. The tree fell on my side of the river - so would add another 40 minutes to my already hour drive to get there. I went home!
    Mar 13: 154.4 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦ Should have kept my mouth quiet. But I kind of figured it would go up a little. Made this delicious beef vegetable soup - and the sodium gets me every time. But I live soup and needed to clean out all the veggies in the fridge. It's temporary!
    Mar 14: 154.2 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€πŸ’¦ There is that number again! πŸ˜† Got our seedlings planted yesterday. Beautiful weather - hope it stays for a long time!
    Mar 15: 154.2 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺπŸ’¦ Tough day yesterday - hit the chips in the afternoon - but pulled myself together and ended the day strong. Had a light dinner instead of what I had planned to make it under - but nutritionally not the best day.
    Mar 16: 154.2 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€ πŸ’¦ And there it is again!
    Mar 17: πŸ€πŸ˜153.2 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺπŸ’¦ Happy Saint Patrick's Day! And there was the woosh I was looking for. I didn't do anything different - so I guess the persistance just finally paid off. Did take a hike in a new place. We have done the lower part of this trail when I first started walking - but it get's real steep and climbs up a small mountain (ok a hill) so we turned around. Yesterday we decided to do it. According to my garmin we ascented 432 feet! Here's Monty and me at the covered bridge at the bottom of the trail - it crosses the Salmon River. I'm beat as this is as we completed the 3 miles.

    Mar 18: 153😁 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ πŸ«€πŸ’¦ Just another quiet day at home - took a walk in AM and hung around the house the rest of the day. I have been on a motivation roll lately and it shows on the scale. I have tracked and stayed under my calorie range every day in March. I wondered why - then it hit me. I haven't had any social situations in March. No out to dinner, no parties, no trips, even missed Bingo a couple weeks. Just plain day to day life - kind of boring - but I'll take it this month. I got in a yoga workout yesterday (not my favorite) and a 10 minute cardio.
    This was a fun one that someone on my Biggest Loser Team suggested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vTTXIqUbJM
    Mar 19: 154.2 πŸ‘£ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦ Salty day, over on my calorie goal, brownie at Bingo put me back to that number again. Today will be a hard day - going to a funeral this morning; my best friend's sister passed away so will be away all day. Going to jump on the treadmill before we go, but getting my step goal may be a stretch today.
    Mar 20: 153.4 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€πŸ’¦ Got home earlier than we thought, so we took a nice 3 mile walk down the Airline Trail - Monty was happy. Had lunch at the funeral and made some good and some not so good choices. The dinner side was the good - a small piece of chicken, a small piece of roast beef (they were swimming in sauce), about a 1/4 cup of rice and the salad. BUT the dessert - I did take a half slice of carrot cake. Drank a lot of water - and had a light dinner at home. Was happy to see a decrease today.
    Mar 21: 154 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ’ͺ πŸ’¦Tough day yesterday. Even though I met my step goal, it was all inside. Monty went for a grooming so was away all morning - we thought we would go when he got home. But, he was so nervous from the grooming that he had diarrhea so we didn't go. Then we got subway for dinner, not a bad thing - just salty. But then I guess that wasn't as satifying as a good piece of protein and some veggies because when I went to be I was hungry. Couldn't sleep because my tummy was grumbling. Got up and ate, and not good things. I'm still on track for my weekly calorie goal - but need to rail it in to meet it.
    Mar 22: 153πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ«€πŸ’¦ Got back on track today. In my Biggest Loser Challenge someone shared an article on Intermittent Fasting (which I have kind of been doing). It was kind of scary. Then another suggested a protein snack later at night. I am going to start doing that. I often wake up hungry and usually just suffer through it. Giving up that eight hour window and adding a healthy snack before bedtime might help. The key will be to remember to save room in the calories during the day. Didn't get my outside walk in, the wind was just crazy yesterday - combined with the cold make for a yucky day. Spent my exercise on the treadmill - binge watching Call the Midwife. Here is the article if anyone wants to read. Mar 23: 153.4 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯—πŸ«€πŸ’¦ A little scare yesterday. On Wednesday Monty got his hair-cut. At the very end of the cut he had diarrhea and they couldn't finish his grooming (he goes back tomorrow). We started out on our walk, and Monty went to do his business and there was blood in his stool. Took the sample and stopped at the vet on the way home. Luckily they could get him in right away - nothing appeared abnormal - but they put him on antibotics and probiotics. On a Chicken and Rice diet for the next few days. If things don't improve we'll need to bring him back for more testing - hoping it is just another case of upset tummy.
    Mar 24: 153.8 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ«€πŸ’¦ A yucky rainy day yesterday. Cleaned the house, spent time on the treadmill, made a salty soup.

    Mar 25: DNW πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ’ͺπŸ’¦ I didn't weigh this morning. Didn't want to see it. Although I met my calorie limit - very salty day - WAY over my sodium goal. Will give it one more day to get on the scale to adjust back to normal. The only reason I made my calorie goal was that worked my behind off to make up for the extra that I ate. Back to normal today - leaving the extra space for the goodies tonight on the Bingo table.

    Mar 26: 154.2 πŸ‘£ πŸ“ πŸ₯— πŸ«€πŸ’¦ Got on the scale - as I suspected; need to pull it together this week if I even have a shot at my 4 pound goal. But I have done it before, so I am going to try! I was very close to that 4 pounds a few days ago so hoping that I'll get a woosh and get there. Yesterday was a nice day - got a great walk in the AM, and then did some grocery shopping, watched a little tv, read some of my book. Greg joined me for a HOUR long cardio session (YestoNext - so low impact and a little slower than some) - which got me step count done. Didn't even need to jump on the treadmill. Bingo night with Mom and sisters - didn't win (I usually don't), but my older sister won $250 and mom won the $10 doorprize. I had a couple jelly beans (tracked them), but overall not a huge junk food night.

    @stormywxs288 Fantastic job holing steady after your holiday celebrations. I love your attitude - we have to enjoy time with our families - but then just hop back into it when the day is over. You got this. We have our Easter a week late because my daughter has to work Easter Weekend (she works in Healthcare - has to work every third holiday).

    @lisalisa123 Just wanted to say welcome to the group! Fantastic start!

    3/25: 115.8 I hit my calorie goal yesterday so this must be the other days catching up with me. I started tracking protein and added more to my weekday meal plan.
    3/26: 116.2 I try not to be bitter, but it feels like a punch in the gut when you end the day way well under calories and exercised and *gain* the next morning. I can only keep going, but I might reserve the right to be a little melancholy today. πŸ˜”

    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 63 years old and from 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


    This Challenge Starting Weight (from Feb 29th): 177.0
    Goal: 173.0 (Four lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx
    Total Lost/Gained this month: 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.

    @nwsocal Looking good! I'll be joining you in April! 😁

    @lifechanges2day - Wow, I have been watching your journey this month. You must be a happy camper!
