Hi. I am Dawn. 60, 5'2"
MFP Starting Weight: 191
November ending weight: 139.0

December goal: To get and stay firmly into the 130s.


Week 1
12/01 - 139.5 - Major calorie burn.
12/02 - 138.2 - Ice skated yesterday which burns a ton of calories.
12/03 - 137.0 - Calorie burn from 2 days ago caught up : - )
12/04 - 137.1 - Hoping to keep this up and get my body to a new set point.
12/05 - 138.3 - No reason for a gain, well within my numbers.
12/06 - 139.2 - Ouch. I will get on top of that.
12/07 - 139.9 - Hoping for a woosh, I have been on track

Week 2
12/08 - 139.5 - Keeping it in the 130s at least. I will feel more confident about that when I hit 135
12/09 - 138.5 - That's better. Working at it.
12/10 - 137.4 - Nice to see this number
12/11 - 136.9 - Sometimes I am "good" and lose nothing or even gain. I haven't been "bad" but surprised at this number. I will take it of course.
12/12 - 136.3 - Wow. This motivates me to keep working hard at weight loss.
12/13 - 138.1 - Had a cheat meal. Back on the horse.
12/14 - 137.4 - Better.

Week 3
12/15 - 136.9 - Happy to see this number again.
12/16 - 137.5 - Working hard to be staying in the 130s this month
12/17 - 136.9 - I ate more than usual yesterday, I was very hungry. I guess that I needed it.
12/18 - 137.0 - Sticking with the plan
12/19 - 135.9 - New low for me. Sometimes I touch a new weight and it takes me quite a while to get back to it, but I am getting used to that. Still very happy to see this number.
12/20 - 136.2 - Went off a bit yesterday, that could come back to bite me. I will be extra diligent today.
12/21 - 137.2 - This is Saturday still catching up to me. I am working on it.

Week 4
12/22 - 137.1 - I was expecting/hoping to be a little less this morning, but all good.
12/23 - 136.9 - Lots of activity yesterday.
12/24 - 136.2 - Definitely will be indulging, but will also try to get in lots of activity to mitigate that
12/25 - 137.1 - Merry Christmas all
12/26 - 137.7 - I hope I topped out at that, but sometimes my body takes a few days to show. Worth it, great Christmas dinner.
12/27 - 137.1 - Glad to still be in the 130s
12/28 - 137.7

Final Week
12/29 - 137.2
12/30 - 137.5 - My December goal was to stay in the 130s. One more day and then Champagne and stuff. Going to try to be very "good" today.
12/31 - 138.3 - No reason whatsoever for the gain, but glad to have finished this month and year out in the 130s. Happy New Year everyone!

I wouldn't know how.
Maybe @cachoey will make a new one for us?
