    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 60 years old and from the Midwest USA.
    (From Feb 28, 2021) Starting weight: 207.0
    Goal: 202.0

    03/01 – 206.6 Off to a good start. Hoping for a good finish with no getting lost on the way! Good luck everyone!
    03/02 - 207.4 Nighttime snacks with milk during documentary. Ugg! Here goes the roller coaster ride!
    03/03 - 207.0 I am very happy with this. I traveled yesterday and managed still see some downward movement. The good dining choices paid off!
    03/04 - 208.4 A severe glucose drop last night. I kept my cool pretty good. A bowl of cereal with milk very late night did not help my scale this morning, but it did fix the symptoms. Aiming for a well-balanced day today. Tomorrow is travel out-of-town for my appointment with attorney. Time to update my will. I haven’t made changes since my husband died 5 years ago. My children are all grown since I originally made my will which changes things. Also, with the recent sale of my two businesses, it really needs to be done. I will try to keep any luncheon choices reasonable. Milk always seems to bloat me up. Perhaps I have become a bit lactose intolerant? Disappointed but not discouraged!
    03/05 - 208.4 Small quantities but bad choices. Another glucose drop last night. This one was the type that makes you feel drunk. Woozy, unsteady on feet. Strange foot to floor sensations. Clouded thinking and judgement. High fall risk, must hold on to things because of staggering. Not as fast coming on as the feeding frenzy kind but something that has to be dealt with. Very cloudy vision. Strange thinking. Drunk is the only way I can describe it. This shows how out of shape my diet is (when too low calorie or carb puts me in this state). My body doesn’t want the (healthy) change. I will take it slow. Traveling today to work on having my will & trust updated along with some other legal matters. Lunch will be out-of-town. Everything is challenging right now.
    03/06 - 208.4 Travel yesterday with restaurant did not show up on the scale. I am grateful but watchful as it sometimes sneaks on a few days later. I am going to try to eat lighter today without anything too drastic. Because of the diabetes episodes of late, I am easing in…..

    March starting weight: 226.8 lbs
    March goal: 211.8 lbs

    3/1 - 226.8 lbs
    3/2 - 225.6 lbs
    3/3 - 223.6 lbs
    3/4 - 220.6 lbs
    3/5 - 218.6 lbs
    3/6 - 217.4 lbs
    3/7 - 215.8 lbs

    It's looking like I'll reach my goal faster than I expected. It's possible it'll slow way down though. I've been waiting to see when it'll slow but I guess my body fat percent is a lot higher than I thought and I'm not close to my ideal weight yet.

    March starting weight: 187
    March goal: 184

    3/1 - 187.0 8min run w/ walk
    3/2 - 187.0 9min run w/ walk. Adding 1min run daily is working well; took off Saturday as a 'rest' day. Excited to hit the 1 mile mark this week!
    3/3 - 186.4 massage, 10min run w/ walk, and zumba tonight!
    3/4 - 185.2 yesterday I just ran 9min instead of the planned 10min...getting old and forgot the plan, but today I'm doing 11min to stay on schedule.
    3/5 - 185.0 yesterday I did a full 12min run instead of the planned 11, so yay, a solid mile! No run planned for today. Gotta hang on to my motivation and big girl panties and make good choices this weekend.
    3/6 - 183.0 what????? 13min run w/ walk is done, making quiche for dinner tonight (cheddar, smoked sausage, mushrooms, evap milk instead of cream) Happy weekend!!
    3/7 - 184.6 a rebound as expected. Still, I count this week as a success. Last night's quiche was too yummy...ate too much, and had wine. Last month I noticed a bump after wine, definitely need to watch to see if this is a pattern related to wine. Daily weigh-ins are interesting, helps me figure out how my body reacts to different things. Today's plan is 14min run w/ walk, get the dogs out for a walk, taxes for us and my mom. Hamburger (no bun) with a salad for me tonight, w/ bun and tater tots for my menfolk.

    03/07 - 207.6 Very happy with this. Tonight is a Pizza Takeout Dinner after the work crew leaves. I am holding a family meeting at about 5:30 in regards to my Will and Trust. It is part of my homework and will be a difficult evening. I hope the scale will understand and be kind.

    3/02 - 60.7 kg
    3/03 - 59.8 kg
    3/04 - 59.7 kg
    Yesterday I had my second COVID-19 shot and this morning I feel incredibly tired, feverish, can barely stand on my feet. This means I won't be able to workout today, which is sad, because I haven't skipped a day of workout since January 4th. I'm hoping I'll feel better in the evening and will be able to at least go for a walk.
    3/05 - 59.6 kg
    Still felt a little under the weather today, but overall a lot better. Glad with this little loss.
    3/06 - 59.2 kg
    It's cheat day tonight so I'm glad the scale is down now because it's going up tomorrow πŸ˜…

    3/7 162 ate out with friends last night

    Eating out is a killer for me. If I made homemade pizza or chinese the calories are reasonable 2 slices of takeaway pizza blows my calories. I understand that restaurants load food with salt, so that is part of it. Once I went out and ordered a salad with Grilled Chicken, 1 oz salad dressing and was up 2 pounds the next day!

    March 1 starting wt: 167 (final gw 145) -- I'm eating any type of food I want, to avoid restriction, but eating very small portions to hopefully make some progress. o:)

    I am with you on that, eat everything, but smaller portions or with some things (for me it is Ribs) cut it back to once per month instead of once per week.
    The idea is that this should be a sustainable way of eating/lifestyle for the long haul, not to lose weight and then go back to old habits and gain it all back.
    I think that our bodies need all food groups to be included. Deprivation messes with us.

    @nikkit321
    I will be interested to hear the results of your wine analysis.
    There is a theory out there that adding alcohol to the system stops the fat burning process while busy trying to digest the alcohol.
    I for one always gain 2-3 pounds the day after alcohol and for up to 3 days. Part of that is because I eat different foods once a sip of wine is in me. I still have it, but pay the consequences.
