    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 weigh on Wednesdays but also on the 1st and last day of every month for an end-of-month full tally.


    CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM Dec 31st): 192.6
    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 10 pounds to land at 182.6
    CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT: xxxxx
    TOTAL LOST IN THIS CHALLENGE: xxxxx

    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.


    01/01-193.4-(Trend Weight: 192.9)-

    01/08-194.0-(Trend Weight: 193.1)-

    01/15-190.6-(Trend Weight: 192.2)- I’ve worked very hard this week for the most part but exercise is still non-existent due to nothing but pure unadulterated laziness. Bathroom results (TMI) and my fluid retention (as a heart patient taking Lasix most days) really factor in. Today I am at what I would call a true weight and this is the jumping off point that I need to reduce from. I’ve got a long way to go but slow and steady usually wins the race so I’ll keep a positive attitude and try not to focus on what’s against me, but rather what I have going for me. And part of that is having all of you. Thanks for the inspiration!

    01/22-191.4-(Trend Weight: 192.8)- Meals were good again but sneaking into the night time snacks is still happening and needs to stop. I have identified it as intense sugar cravings and emotional self-sabotage eating. I’m still going round & round with the old contractor. My only relief is that the new contractors are moving along very well though they do have many prior commitments that sometimes brings things to a stall. Weather is ridiculously cold here and they are dealing with helping multiple people or small companies with frozen pipes etc. Day 3 of no school here due to below zero temps. I have not been sleeping well or sleeping enough as the emotions affects that too. I feel like I’m just a mess. However, TMI cooperated. Stay warm folks! And for those in warm temps, stay cool. Stay cool…..Hmmmm……That sounds like something I would have written in the 1970’s in a high school year book! I hope you older folks got a chuckle there!

    Good morning all! I didn't actually expect to see a loss this week, so I'm happy with the tiny 0.3 difference on the scale. I live in South Louisiana and this cold snap is intense! Everything is shut down and I've not been very disciplined with regard to food and movement. On a positive note, I have unearthed my infinity hoop and have been using it a few times a day. Carry on and stay warm!

    @alwixon, good morning! With regard to your DNA testing, meeting with a genetic counselor might help you process the information. I don't know about your particular situation, but I learned for myself, that our environment plays a huge role in whether the gene mutation is expressed. What foods we eat is a major component of environment. It also helps pinpoint what screenings might be appropriate, scheduling those screenings, and smoothing the way for insurance coverage. The counselor also gave me the information to pass on to family members so that they could receive free testing if they chose. I hope this helps!
