    MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 60 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5’ 5” TALL.

    Challenge Starting Weight: (From April 30th) 207.9
    Challenge Level: ✴✴✴
    Challenge Goal weight: 192.9



    05/01 – 207.7 Good luck everyone!
    05/06 – 204.9 Traveling today, which is never good in the food OR exercise category. I will try to maintain some degree of self-control and dignity however, being from a very very small town, entering the city is mind-blowing and temptation is on every corner. I’ve got to stay cool.
    05/09 – 204.8 Making progress but traveling today which will be a set-back in both diet and exercise. I’ll work hard to mitigate any damage all week. It’s my birthday on Mother’s Day so I am going to give myself the present of progress!
    05/13 - 205.1 Notsogood after travel this past week but I’m back and stronger than ever!
    05/20 - 204.3 Better, but still not up to my standards. Working harder is in my future.
    05/27 - 205.0 Better than my starting weight but higher than my previous weigh-in so my plan is to turn this ship back around! I guess I may have indulged a bit too much for the US holiday weekend? No excuses, time to make more changes!
    05/31 – 206.8 A bad weight following travel. More travel expected on the 1st. Ugg. All days in-between I am staying as mindful as my will allows. Most days good.


    06/01 – 206.8 Good Luck in June Everyone!
    06/03 – 208.8 After Travel weigh-in. I’ll work to move this in the right direction again Likity-Split!
    06/10 – 211.0 More travel this past week and more poor choices. Turning this train around!

    Increasing my daily steps by 1000 and sticking to my daily intake goals by tracking everything in MFP really helped me stay on track and hit my goal this week. Looking to use the same strategy for next week's check in!

    June 1: 136.6 lb (-7.6 lb)
    June 8: 135.6 lb (-8.6 lb)
    June 15: 135.6 lb (-8.6 lb) I ate around maintenance at least 4 days this week due to headaches. Hoping a bit of that is water retention but it makes sense I didn't lose much (any). But yay I didn't gain. This week should be better now that i have a pillow thats okay. I was down to 134.8 at one point. My average calories were 1700 for the week so I do strongly suspect water retention!

    I've been getting up early and walking for 60 minutes to make sure I hit my 10K step target each day BEFORE the heat sets in. It's supposed to be around 90°F for the next 2 weeks. I live in a small, but densely populated city, and I found this park that's about a mile away. So, I have been rolling out of bed, walking over to the park, and have really enjoyed just being in nature through there with a good audiobook. Plan is to keep it up. Feeling great and it's rewarding and encouraging to see results each week!
