Lose 5lbs + in July 2020

MFP start weight Oct 28.18 - 191

June goal was 146.7 - Actual end weight 148.1
July goal was 143.4 - Actual EW 145.0
August goal was 142.9 - Actual EW 145.2 - Ouch
September goal 141.9
Ultimate goal: 112-115 - Age 60, height 5'2"

Wednesday July 01 - 148.4 - Up just a titch from June EW, but really pleased to be starting the month in the 140s for the first time.
Friday July 31 - 145.0 - The long weekend has started here, going to try my best to not derail.
July - Lost 3.4 pounds

Monday August 31 - 145.2
August Kind of a bust of a month, gained 0.2 from last month.



Okay, parking here on the July thread again.

Tuesday September 01 - 144.9 - Staying the course and trying to be patient
Wednesday September 02 - 143.8 - 18 days until my 60th birthday - my goal was to be 130 which obviously won't be happening. MFP has been saying "137 in 5 weeks" since January of this year. Yesterday it said "133 in 5 weeks". 2 pounds in 18 days might be realistic, I am a very slow weight loser. Yes, I do plan to be indulgent over my birthday getaway, but not out of control indulgent after all of this hard work.
Thursday September 03 - 143.7
Friday September 04 - 142.3 - Wow, super happy to see this number after all of my diligence.
Saturday September 05 - 143.1
Sunday September 06 - 142.5 - 1.5 pounds away now from a 50 pound weight loss. It could take awhile, but I am definitely going to work at it.
Monday September 07 - 143.1 - Hit those 142s twice, so hoping to return there tomorrow.
Tuesday September 08 - 143.2 - On track, and sticking with it.
Wednesday September 09 - 143.6 - Went off track a tiny bit last night, dusting off and will work out extra today.
Thursday September 10 - 143.9 - Maybe I will see a drop tomorrow. Hope so.
Friday September 11 - 142.0 - Yahoo for the scale reading, but a terrible day historically. I was probably around 165 pounds back then before I started packing on the menopause pounds. I couldn't carry 165 these days as my body weight shifted around with age.
Saturday September 12 - 142.0 - I usually get more workouts/activity over the weekends, hoping to be able to sustain this number.
Sunday September 13 - 142.9 - I will get back to that number from the last couple of days. Hard work and determination : - )
Monday September 14 - 142.7 - I was heavier than that at 5am when I got up, so...I went back to bed until 7 lol.
Tuesday September 15 - 142.4 - Halfway through the month now. going to try to lose a couple of more ounces before going away on holiday.
Wednesday September 16 - 142.3 - Going to indulge on my birthday vacation for a week, but not go crazy. Not much of a cushion, hope to bring it down another ounce before leaving tomorrow.
Thursday September 17 - 141.7 - Good number before leaving for my trip. I will get a work out in before sitting in my car.
Friday September 18 - 142.3 - Happy with this number. Yup, I brought my scale with me. Very beautiful here.
Saturday September 19 - 141.6 - Ah, less stress more hiking I guess. I don't have cooking facilities in my motel, so I am not eating my usual chicken with fresh veggies from my garden. I do have a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. Most importantly, I have a Jacuzzi in the living room overlooking the mountains : - )
Sunday September 20 - 141.0 - Yippee Yahoo!!! Hit my 50 pound weight loss milestone right on the morning of my milestone 60th birthday :):):)
Monday September 21 - 142.3 - I kind of expect for it to go up higher still. Hiking lots, but also no kitchen while away so food choices are not the best.
Tuesday September 22 - 142.9 - Burned way too many calories yesterday when I got lost on mountain trails. My body might have been gripping on to fat in fear lol. I expect my weight to go back down when that catches up in a few days. 8 days left in the month, wanting to finish strong. This weight number would have me at a 2 pound loss for the month, which I am always pleased with if I can attain it.
Wednesday September 23 - 142.4 - I will be eating at home starting today, so maybe I can bring this number down a little more before the end of the month in 7 days. However, I won't be burning off nearly as many calories - maybe those will still catch up : - )
Thursday September 24 - 144.0 - Not happy with that number! Feeling lean, so hopefully just a blip.
Friday September 25 - 141.8 - Whew.
Saturday September 26 - 141.6 - Going to have my overdue birthday meal tonight, Rib Eye with prawns. I will have to work out extra before that : - )
Sunday September 26 - 143.6 - Kind of worth the 2 lb gain, it was delicious. If I ate that way every day I would quickly be back up 50 pounds, so keeping it occasional only.
Monday September 27 - 143.1 - Only 2 more weight days left for the month. Back to my routine, so hoping to get a loss over the next few days.
Tuesday September 28 - 143.9

Not exactly how I wanted to end the round, but still ended up with a bit of a loss considering that I started the month out on a high number.
I hit my 50 pound weight loss, but climbed back up after getting back from stress-free vacation with lots of hiking.

1.9 pound loss for the month overall.

My name is Donna and I am 60 years old. I am from the Midwest USA. 5’ 5
I will be keeping the Tuesday weigh-in (in addition to the 1st and last day of the month for the full tally)
