    My name is Donna. I am 64 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.


    CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM June 30th): 187.0
    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 12 pounds to land at 175.0
    CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT: xxxxx
    TOTAL LOST IN THIS CHALLENGE:

    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

    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.


    07/01-187.0-(Trend Weight: 186.6)-

    07/08-189.2-(Trend Weight: 187.2)-

    07/15-189.4-(Trend Weight: 188.6)-

    07/22-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- Yesterday was out-of-control with the snacking. I really paid attention and portion control does seem to be the biggest issue. I continue to eat “approved” and healthy foods, but one thing right after another. I don’t need one each of ALL the snacks. Just pick one Donna and be satisfied!!!! I am hungry at meal times but do well at home for my meals. At snack time, it’s nothing short of ridiculous and I’m usually not even very hungry. Just cravings!!! I mean, I’m glad I LOVE my healthy choices but why so many, why so much? No wonder Dr. Nowzaradan makes his patients see a psychologist. Too bad we don’t have one within 100 miles of my home. I’ll just keep reading my health and weight loss books and being thankful for all of you, my support group!

    07/29-189.4-(Trend Weight: 189.7)- My weight is the same as my last actual weigh-in but my trend weight has went way up due to the wild swings and fluctuations in my weight over the past couple of weeks. I attribute most of that to my binge eating disorder. I’ve got to come up with something that will help. Due to July’s increases, I feel like I’ll just be chasing my own tail in August. I just want to hang my head and cry. All my clothes feel tight. I weighed 12 pounds less in March.
