    Checking in! (One day late…)

    Good this week: I’ve managed to mostly keep up with my meal prep, I forgot my lunch last Friday but I went to salad and go so that was a healthy choice. I also had meetings across town Friday and Saturday so a bit more dining out those days too, but I was thoughtful about my choices. I stayed in my calorie range Friday and my chipotle bowl took me a few hundred over on Saturday. Oh well! I’ve decided dining out for one or 2 meals per week is ok. It couldn’t really be helped with my meetings. I met my activity goal with roller derby on Sunday. My everything hurt for a few days! I’ve been bringing lunch for my work husband and that has really helped me remember. It’s starting to feel like a habit!

    Areas for refinement: my meal prep game is moving in the right direction, but I’d like to build consistency and remember my meals, limiting dining out to once or twice a week, pre-planned. I had 4 in the last week (the ones mentioned above plus Starbucks one morning when breakfast wasn’t readily available). Need to increase my water intake too. I’ve been stuck between 279-281 for the last week. I’m not going to worry about the number right now and just focus on maintaining this lifestyle change.

    Goals for the coming week: keep up with meal prep, bringing lunch, only dine out 1 or 2 times this week, one activity day for derby.
    Rehearsals for the school musical start Monday (auditions were today and tomorrow) so I just want to keep doing what I’m doing while this extra work ramps up.

    Hi everyone, the "dropout" is BACK! looks like I need to "turn the page" (yet again)!

    For the remainder of this year, I plan to weigh in on Wednesdays, because as of this Wednesday, there will be only 19 weeks left until 2025! Can you believe it? I can hardly believe that September is just two weeks from today!

    Today is my 66th birthday. The scale showed about 162 lbs. this morning, which is about 22 lbs. Higher than what I hoped to weigh by now. Can I lose it by the end of this year? Yes I can! But I need to stay focused on my goals.

    Here I go again! I will report my stats on Wednesday.

    Have a great week! 💞 Carole

    My name is Donna. I am 64 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.
    I will be weighing on the 1st and last day of each month as well as weekly on Tuesdays.

    TOTAL LOST IN THIS CHALLENGE:


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    08/08-188.8-(Trend Weight: 189.4)-

    08/15-190.8-(Trend Weight: 190.3)- It’s been a bad week filled with too much travel and not enough movement/exercise or diet control. So much sodium filled restaurant food and too many snacks along the way. I’ve got to get my head back into the game! I always hope to lose 1 lb per week and instead I gained 2! I can do better!

    08/22-189.8-(Trend Weight: 190.5)- I was doing a bit better earlier in the week but the travel always bites me in the butt. Restaurant food and lots of sitting during the driving trips. It’s a way of life for me as I live in a very rural area. The good news is that all my medical tests and appointments came out with very nice results this time. So, at least my diabetic feet are okay for now, even though symptoms persist. It’s key that I keep my glucose numbers down for overall health and less issues related to Type 2 diabetes. Incentive! Have a great weekend everyone!

    It’s been a busy couple of weeks but I’m back! I think I’m going to switch to Friday updates because I am more likely to have time to do it. 😂

    Good: I finally broke through my plateau! I’ve been holding right around 280 give or take for about three weeks and yesterday finally had a significant dip on the scale. Even with being on the plateau, I was 10 pounds down at my doctors visit (First thing in the morning weigh in was closer to 14 pounds down). i’ve managed to bring lunch consistently for the last two weeks, I’ve decided not to beat myself up over Starbucks and dining out for dinner a couple times a week. Starbucks for breakfast really isn’t that bad since I get egg bites and iced coffee with coconut milk. I thought it was very calorie loaded for a couple weeks because I was logging 2 Venti iced coffees instead of one! I’ve been making thoughtful choices for the most part when I have gone out for dinner. I’ve had musical rehearsals after school, meet the teacher night, and weekend choreography rehearsal for my show choir over the last two weeks, so I haven’t had as much time to food prep. I’m just glad that I’m doing as well as I am given my hectic schedule!

    Not so good: had my follow up visit with my doctor, got the diabetes diagnosis 😕 oh well! It’s definitely more incentive to stay on track! Blood pressure was fine though so I’m glad I don’t have to worry about that too. Some hormone imbalance things, but we’re gonna see how things go with keeping the diabetes in check and see if it resolves itself. I have had fast food for two meals, one of those after getting my glucose monitor and holy blood sugar spike Batman! Definitely need to stay away from that stuff! Unfortunately, I had to miss Derby two weeks ago due to lesson planning that needed to get done and Derby day was the only day I had available to do it so I didn’t meet my activity goal that week.

    Goals for this week: continue bringing lunch every day. More meal prep so there’s no more than two Starbucks and one dinner out this week. Fix my bike this weekend so I can have an additional option for activity since there’s no Roller Derby this weekend. No blood sugar spikes beyond normal range.

    Starting weight (7/16): 293.8
    7/24: 286.4
    7/31: 278
    8/7: 279.8
    8/15: 280
    8/22: 275.6
    Total loss: 18.2

    To Bullieholiday, Congratulations on busting through your plateau! That's a great feeling! About the diabetes, you can reverse it. My brother gave up soda and started daily walking over one summer and was able to get off his meds! My sister's daughter-in-law changed her eating habits and worked with a personal trainer for several months. Her latest A1C was 5.0! You can do this! 💞🌻🫶

    @Walela617 thanks for the words of encouragement! I think the changes I’ve made since that first appointment last month have already helped already, I’ve stayed in range except for that one big spike after my fast food indulgence and a small short lived spike when I had a Clif bar after roller derby practice. When my blood work was done my fasting blood glucose was 175! I hate to think what my daily average must have been given how much fast food I had been eating. My meds should be ready Wednesday so we’ll see how that goes!
