    Good morning!
    I'm so happy to see so many people losing weight!
    And good attitudes from those who didn't.
    I had a bad week, struggled, but came out fine.

    Starting weight = 184.2
    Goal weight = 170
    Ultimate goal weight = to be determined

    Jan 1 - 184.2
    Jan 8 - 186.2

    Hi everyone!
    I am joining the challenge a little bit late, but am in need of some accountability. I've been off and on of MyFitnessPal for 10 years, and have some good success when I've been consistent.

    I am 43 years old, 5'2" with a starting weight of 146 lbs. With being petite, EVERY pound is a struggle. I have three little kids - ages 4, 6, and 8 -- and my hubby travels for work. So, cooking heathy meals the kids will actually eat, as well as trying to find time to exercise are struggles for
    me.

    Beginning weight: 146 lbs
    End of Challenge Goal: 139 lbs

    January 8: 146 lbs.

    Happy Wednesday!

    Weight had been trending slowly downward all week, but now is back up today. Might be sodium (Tuesday is always chick fil a night, because we both stay at work late and are hungry by the time we leave) or exercise (maybe I'm adding muscle??) Or maybe just random daily variations.
    I weigh daily and calculate a weekly average, which helps me to not fixate on the daily numbers as much. My overall goal is to lose .5 lb each week, and this week's average has me at -.35. Not quite where I want to be, but not bad either.

    I have been active at least a little bit each day and have gotten back to tracking food, so I expect to see more progress in the next week. But even aside from the weight, the mental health benefits of running and exercising have been nice. Had a really hard day in the classroom yesterday, but I still made myself do a short run before I left work. And by the time I was finished, I felt so much better.

    I lost a couple pounds this week. I have watched what I’m eating a bit and when I am eating. I also increased water consumption. Not quite as much as I should be drinking each day, but definitely more than I had been. This week, I want to try to get a little more active. I hate doing anything in the cold weather, buy will try to get in some walking.

    @abp1025 Onederland! How Onederful!

    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)- Okay, so this is not the greatest start for 2025 but I plan on having a great finish!  I certainly have plenty of time to turn it around so I’m starting TODAY. No time like the present, right? Wishing you all the very best in 2025. I am grateful for this challenge and for each and every one of you!

    01/08-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- I honestly forgot to weight this morning when my routine ended up out-of-order. I think my weight would have been about the same or a few ounces less that my weight on the 1st. However, tomorrow I will weigh in and repost my weight and comments in the place of this entry. I don’t want to go another whole week without some sort of weight being posted. Have a good Hump Day!

    I wanted to post earlier today for weigh in Wed. but the day was busy. I was so glad to see I’m still moving in the right direction! I think my goal weight may be unrealistic unless I start going back to the gym in addition to food tracking. In Dec. I was 206.6lbs which was my wake up call, so I’m progressing along! I’m getting creative with cooking healthy meals. I feel like my taste buds have awakened! 😋
