Hi everyone,
Happy Sunday!
True confessions, here's the truth about Wednesday's weigh-in:
I think I finally got rid of this temporary regain due to a late meal (including alcohol) on Tuesday evening, but we'll find out this Wednesday.
Boston is back in a heat wave, but I think this round will be less humid; so it probably won't be that bad.
My plantar fasciitis is almost gone - yay! I got these insoles from Amazon called "Walk Hero" that seem to have helped.
Enjoythe rest of your weekend!

My name is Donna. I am 65 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5β 5β tall. My highest weight was 253. I would like to lose a total of about 100 pounds and have been working on it for too many years (since 2018).
I will weigh on Wednesdays, but also on the 1st and last day of every month in order to get an account for the entire month. I will adjust my goals each week (need to lose more or need to lose less) in order for the math to add up to the 30 pound loss by the end. Iβm being optimistic at this point as we are just starting.

hi everyone, I hope it isnβt too late to join you in this challenge.
I am trying to lose the next 25-30 pounds and this feels like a great group for motivation.
I am 55 and started at 218 now 170. I have went low to no sugar due to diabetes which I am trying to reverse. My goal is to be under 25 bmi and be more active.
Happy birthday Carole!! I love reading yours and everyoneβs posts.2 -

Honestly, it felt like the all or nothing mentality since Iβd already eaten out of plan while away from home. My weight has fluctuated by 4.8 lbs this week.

Hi everyone,
Thanks again to all who sent birthday wishes! My gift to me (slightly belated) is to quit drinking alcoholic beverages forever. I had a recent bout with pancreatitis and it's no fun. Now on my 4th alcohol-free day, it is subsiding more and more each day.
My weight is finally below 160 again. (It had crept back up to 162 and I put on the brakes and reversed direction.) We'll see how Wednesday's weigh-in goes...
Have a great day!

All I can do is keep on keeping on and do what is right as often as I can and know that my body will eventually catch up. Today was a bit of a drop. It goes up much faster than it comes down, even with unexplained increases. Just keep moving forward Donna. Itβs bound to level off!

My name is Donna. I am 65 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5β 5β tall. My highest weight was 253. I would like to lose a total of about 100 pounds and have been working on it for too many years (since 2018).
I will weigh on Wednesdays, but also on the 1st and last day of every month in order to get an account for the entire month. I will adjust my goals each week (need to lose more or need to lose less) in order for the math to add up to the 30 pound loss by the end. Iβm being optimistic at this point as we are just starting.

Iβve been experiencing several unexpected and unfair jump upβs on the scale lately off & on. I canβt explain what always happens on our journeyβs. All I can do is keep on keeping on and do what is right as often as I can and know that my body will eventually catch up. Today was a bit of a drop. It goes up much faster than it comes down, even with unexplained increases. Just keep moving forward Donna. Itβs bound to level off!
βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈ08/31 β 181.8 β (Trend Weight β 184.5) I exceeded my goal by 1.0 lb in August, losing a total of 7 lbs this month which will really help me in my little experiment if I can just hang on to it. It was a hefty goal, much larger than my usual 4 lbs per month so Iβm really proud that I managed to pull it off by the end of the month. I really kept each individual weekβs goal in mind while doing this, though I had some bad days and some weeks I had to make up for. I have the U.S. Holiday of Labor Day (a food holiday) in September, a family memberβs birthday, and at least one travel day every week looming for the month. I will be battling every week as I usually gain several pounds per travel day so I will have to work hard all week, every week, to get it back down. That is like a challenge within a challenge for me! It wonβt be easy but I am committed to this feat, this challenge, this experiment and to myself and my health. I am going forward with hope in my heart!

Hey Walela617, this challenge sounds fantastic β 31 weeks is a great timeframe to aim for sustainable weight loss, and the connection with βThe Path to Lifestyle Changeβ program is a big plus! Losing 20-30 lbs. with a steady 1-2 lbs. per week goal is very realistic and healthy.
I love the supportive vibe youβre creating with kindness and positivity as key rules. Are you tracking certain habits or focusing on any particular strategies within the program? Also, how are you planning to stay motivated over these months?

CURRENT MONTH:
09/01-185.0 β (Trend Weight: 184.6) This is what it looks like when I fill with water. I stuck to my meals well yesterday but did have dessert at a friendβs house with DD and DGS. I was unable to take my prescribed water pill the past couple of days. This week will be hit & miss. Iβm not even sure if itβs fair to weigh and if the numbers will do more harm mentally than good. Especially when it continues that I canβt take the medication. Tomorrowβs weight would be after the holiday BBQ today away from home. Wednesday I travel several hours each wayfor a medical appointment on my eyes so Thursday will be skewed. Friday is βno weigh dayβ, especially with school back in session for DGS. So Saturday would be first day that weight has a chance to slightly level though it could still possibly be somewhat elevated if one day of recovery is not enough. I will play it by ear and see how my curiosity gets to me. This much back-to-back-to-back-to-back change is definitely cramping my style and my routine. It feels like such a wasted week and opportunity to see where Iβm really at. Iβve no choice but to push through and do What I can, When I can. Right now from this angle it looks like another month of chasing my tail. Last month I finally caught it in the very last week, only to start on that low for this month. Ugh!
ππππ 09/03 β185.2 β (Trend Weight: 184.9) I gained 6 pounds in two days so I know a lot of it was fluid. I am traveling today so that will not help. Restaurant food and so much sitting during travel will likely result in yet another gain. Iβll have to be diligent for the rest of the week to get these unfortunate numbers back down. Not a good start to September as I will likely be playing catch up all month!

Septemberβs schedule has been unrelenting. I just have to stick to it as often as I possibly can. I do expect that I will slide up & down the 180βs for awhile, just as I did the 190βs and the 200βs. It doesnβt come off and stay off that easily at my age! Persistence does eventually pay off though.

Hi everyone,
I went up little bit 156.4 this past Wednesday, but I should fix it by this Wednesday.
Enjoy your day,

Hi everyone,
Happy last day of Summer!
I have not yet "course-corrected" for last week and the week before, but I haven't given up and I hope to do better for the last days in September.
I will report again on Wednesday, September 24th.
Enjoy your day!

Everyone, YES we CAN!π Today was a good start for me. Below was average speed 4.06mph. LOOK at this calorie burn:
Better TOGETHER! For me, I'd like to (at least) wrap up September weighing less than August!
I will try to check in at least once per day.
Have a nice night and a great Tuesday!

My name is Donna. I am 65 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5β 5β tall. My highest weight was 253. I would like to lose a total of about 100 pounds and have been working on it for too many years (since 2018).
I will weigh on Wednesdays, but also on the 1st and last day of every month in order to get an account for the entire month. I will adjust my goals each week (need to lose more or need to lose less) in order for the math to add up to the 30 pound loss by the end. Iβm being optimistic at this point as we are just starting.

Iβm managing to go down a teeny bit but itβs just not enough to come anywhere near my goals. Disappointed for sure but glad to see it is at least moving back in the right direction.
09/30 β xxxxx (Trend Weight β xxxxx) I will probably come back a day or two late to record my weight for September end. After travel, giving it a day or two will allow the most accurate true numbers to reveal themselves.
