February starting weight: 188.2 (sodium retention)
February goal: 180
Non-scale goals:
- keep health in balance with work
- deliberate exercise minimum 4x/week
- plan meals
2/1 - 188.2 January was a struggle for me and I ended the month higher than where I started. My work commitments got in the way of exercise and meal planning/logging. Today I've planned & pre-logged my meals and I commit to a long walk. (Walk - check!)
2/2 - 185.6 yup, yesterday's weight was inflated due to sodium. Adjusted my Feb goal for where I feel my actual start for the month is. Meals planned & logged, will walk later, attitude adjusted.
2/3 - 185.0 good day yesterday reflected on this morning's scale. Zumba restarts tonight so looking forward to that. Today's meals planned and logged.
2/4 - 184.6 Zumba was fun last night, happy to post another drop. Food planned and logged; exercise planned.
2/5 - 184.8 no walk yesterday but food was good. Planning good exercise for the weekend as I think it'll make me more mindful with food choices. TGIF!!
2/6 - 184.2 good day yesterday but no exercise. Today I am going to exercise, meal plan, and grocery shop
2/7 - 186.6 gluten spike. I did get everything done yesterday, including exercise.
2/8 - 187.2 love weekends but need to control weekends
2/9 - 184.2
2/10 - 184.4 shared a bottle of wine with my hubby last night, that's the only reason I can think of that I'm up slightly this morning. Will have to pay attention and see if that's a typical reaction with my body.

02/10 - 134.4
02/11 - 134.2
02/12 - 134.3 - We are in a cold snap here for a few more days, so workouts have to be indoors. Yay Youtube!
02/13 - 135.5 - No reason for this gain except maybe that I drank way more water yesterday.
02/14 - 135.6 - Lots of water/liquid again, plus it has been too cold to get on the trails for a week.
Week 3
02/15 - 136.3 - I had Ribs yesterday. I expect this weight to go up further before I can try to get it back down. It was a choice that I made, but these choices have consequences of course. I used to have Ribs once per week, but I have cut it way back to once per month or less. I know that certain foods are detrimental to weight loss and try to limit them.
02/16 - 135.3 - Worked out like crazy yesterday, pretty happy to see a drop.

@angelslifek ONEDERLAND FOR YOU!!!! THAT IS ONDERFUL!!!!! CONGRATS. GREAT PROGRESS IN FEBRUARY. SUCH AN INSPIRATION!4 -
My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 60 years old and from the Midwest USA.
February starting weight: 207.6
February goal: 202.6
2/01 – 207.6
2/02 - 207.6
2/03 - 208.8 I am a train wreck right now.
2/04 - I woke up running and forgot to weigh
2/05 - 208.6
2/06 - 207.2 Not much time for eating yesterday. It ended with late-night dinner of unhealthy frozen food. However, the calories must have been low for the day overall. Surprised to see this lower number.
2/07 - 207.7 Pizza yesterday with DD and DGS . A rare treat. Back on plan today.
2/08 - 207.4 Pleased that its going back down.
2/09 – 206.6 I am happy to see this. I am expecting a high-sodium social dinner tonight so I will watch my p’s and q’s today and drink plenty of water.
2/10 – 207.2 There’s that sodium bloat rearing its ugly head. Travel today will probably not help!
2/11 - 206.8 I am shocked to see it down nearly ½ pound the day after travel. I will be watching the scale closely over the next couple of days. Sometimes I hide after sodium and/or travel, but it usually finds me.
2/12 - 206.0 Very pleased after a couple of off-days in my schedule.
2/13 - 206.0 After the horrid BINGE last night on my snacks, I will take this and be grateful for it. Tightening the belt today and getting down to business so the weekend does not derail me.
2/14 - 206.4 A had a glucose drop last night that was swift and severe so there were extra calories at the end of the night. On another note, I felt like I was losing the same pounds over and over so I did a little experiment. Starting with Jan 1st , 2020 weight, I went back and counted every single drop of weight I had lost from day to day based on my records. I have lost 103.8 pounds in total! Yay!!!! Well, NOT SO FACT FOLKS. I got on the scale to calculate the difference overall from the starting weight on 1/1/2020 to today and I have gained 12.4 lbs.
I think it’s pretty sad that I worked so hard to lose over 100 pounds with so much sacrifice, hard work, exercise, research and so much more, only to be heavier. I will mark this up to self-sabotage and try to be kinder to myself in 2021. I will try to keep and take care of what I have worked for. So, if you feel like you are losing the same pounds over and over, it could be true. I am going to try to stop this madness!
2/15 - 208.8 One Meal yesterday. This is about as unfair as it gets! Pushing water today.
2/16 - 207.2 On my way back down. Thank you to the extra water and its effects. Pushing more water again today.
2/17 - 204.6 I finally flushed out the sodium. Making good choices is key. Yesterday was a good day.
2/18 - 204.4 I was extra hungry last night and ate very late. I will try to space out my meals and do better planning today. Only slept 4 hours which is more like my typical but I do believe that it affects the scale. If nothing else, my eating window is 20 hours! Perhaps I will sleep better tonight since I am tired. In any case, I am happy for the small drop on the scale.

2/06 - 207.2 Not much time for eating yesterday. It ended with late-night dinner of unhealthy frozen food. However, the calories must have been low for the day overall. Surprised to see this lower number.
2/07 - 207.7 Pizza yesterday with DD and DGS . A rare treat. Back on plan today.
2/08 - 207.4 Pleased that its going back down.
2/09 – 206.6 I am happy to see this. I am expecting a high-sodium social dinner tonight so I will watch my p’s and q’s today and drink plenty of water.
2/10 – 207.2 There’s that sodium bloat rearing its ugly head. Travel today will probably not help!
2/11 - 206.8 I am shocked to see it down nearly ½ pound the day after travel. I will be watching the scale closely over the next couple of days. Sometimes I hide after sodium and/or travel, but it usually finds me.
2/12 - 206.0 Very pleased after a couple of off-days in my schedule.
2/13 - 206.0 After the horrid BINGE last night on my snacks, I will take this and be grateful for it. Tightening the belt today and getting down to business so the weekend does not derail me.
2/14 - 206.4 A had a glucose drop last night that was swift and severe so there were extra calories at the end of the night. On another note, I felt like I was losing the same pounds over and over so I did a little experiment. Starting with Jan 1st , 2020 weight, I went back and counted every single drop of weight I had lost from day to day based on my records. I have lost 103.8 pounds in total! Yay!!!! Well, NOT SO FACT FOLKS. I got on the scale to calculate the difference overall from the starting weight on 1/1/2020 to today and I have gained 12.4 lbs.
I think it’s pretty sad that I worked so hard to lose over 100 pounds with so much sacrifice, hard work, exercise, research and so much more, only to be heavier. I will mark this up to self-sabotage and try to be kinder to myself in 2021. I will try to keep and take care of what I have worked for. So, if you feel like you are losing the same pounds over and over, it could be true. I am going to try to stop this madness!
2/15 - 208.8 One Meal yesterday. This is about as unfair as it gets! Pushing water today.
2/16 - 207.2 On my way back down. Thank you to the extra water and its effects. Pushing more water again today.
2/17 - 204.6 I finally flushed out the sodium. Making good choices is key. Yesterday was a good day.
2/18 - 204.4 I was extra hungry last night and ate very late. I will try to space out my meals and do better planning today. Only slept 4 hours which is more like my typical but I do believe that it affects the scale. If nothing else, my eating window is 20 hours! Perhaps I will sleep better tonight since I am tired. In any case, I am happy for the small drop on the scale.
02/19 – 204.8 Lack of movement perhaps. Diet had a bit more sodium than usual but was right on in terms of healthy and the portions were very good.

Week 1
02/01 - 137.5
02/02 - 137.1
02/03 - 135.9 - Closer to what I felt like I should be weighing.
02/04 - 136.3
02/05 - 134.8 - I have felt pretty lean all week. I need to not let the weekend get away with me.
02/06 - 135.8
02/07 - 136.1 - All over the place this first week.
Week 2
02/08 - 137.5 - Superbowl aftermath. I will work hard to get this back down.
02/09 - 137.2 - Worked out extra yesterday to try to mitigate Superbowl. Hoping to see a good drop this week.
02/10 - 134.4
02/11 - 134.2
02/12 - 134.3 - We are in a cold snap here for a few more days, so workouts have to be indoors. Yay Youtube!
02/13 - 135.5 - No reason for this gain except maybe that I drank way more water yesterday.
02/14 - 135.6 - Lots of water/liquid again, plus it has been too cold to get on the trails for a week.
Week 3
02/15 - 136.3 - I had Ribs yesterday. I expect this weight to go up further before I can try to get it back down. It was a choice that I made, but these choices have consequences of course. I used to have Ribs once per week, but I have cut it way back to once per month or less. I know that certain foods are detrimental to weight loss and try to limit them.
02/16 - 135.3 - Worked out like crazy yesterday, pretty happy to see a drop.
02/17 - 134.8 - Slept in today, so got a better number
02/18 - 134.4 - Closer. I was 134.1 in January
02/19 - 133.3 - New low for me to aspire to now that I have touched it once.
02/20 - 133.5 - Planning Pizza today, so will try to work out lots before that.

Non-scale goals:
- keep health in balance with work
- deliberate exercise minimum 4x/week
- plan meals
2/1 - 188.2 January was a struggle for me and I ended the month higher than where I started. My work commitments got in the way of exercise and meal planning/logging. Today I've planned & pre-logged my meals and I commit to a long walk. (Walk - check!)
2/2 - 185.6 yup, yesterday's weight was inflated due to sodium. Adjusted my Feb goal for where I feel my actual start for the month is. Meals planned & logged, will walk later, attitude adjusted.
2/3 - 185.0 good day yesterday reflected on this morning's scale. Zumba restarts tonight so looking forward to that. Today's meals planned and logged.
2/4 - 184.6 Zumba was fun last night, happy to post another drop. Food planned and logged; exercise planned.
2/5 - 184.8 no walk yesterday but food was good. Planning good exercise for the weekend as I think it'll make me more mindful with food choices. TGIF!!
2/6 - 184.2 good day yesterday but no exercise. Today I am going to exercise, meal plan, and grocery shop
2/7 - 186.6 gluten spike. I did get everything done yesterday, including exercise.
2/8 - 187.2 love weekends but need to control weekends
2/9 - 184.2
2/10 - 184.4 shared a bottle of wine with my hubby last night, that's the only reason I can think of that I'm up slightly this morning. Will have to pay attention and see if that's a typical reaction with my body.
2/11 - 184.4
2/15 - 187.6 yikes. sodium/gluten bloat, will drop back off in a few days.
