I am Dawn. 60, 5'2"
MFP Start weight Oct 28.18 - 191
UGW 115-ish
Daily weighing keeps me accountable and prevents me from a few extra snacks the night before.
Week 1:
3/1: 136.0 - Up from last month's end weight.
3/2: 135.0 - Going to use this as my month start weight, not yesterday's fluctuation.
3/3: 133.0 - Well, that is more like it!! Hit this number once before, very happy to see it.
3/4: 132.2 - New low : - )
3/5: 134.1 - That is a bit of a jump, but I'm okay with it. I indulged a little bit last night.
3/6: 134.9 - Ouch.
3/7: 133.8 - More reasonable. I will get in extra workouts today, day off.
Week 2:
3/8: 134.7 - Completely on track. I try not to get too upset with these jumps from day to day.
3/9: 134.7 - Had hoped for a slight decrease.
3/10: 133.3 - I like the fluctuations better when they go in this direction : - )
3/11: 133.4
3/12: 133.7
3/13: 134.1 - Ow, no reason for the gain. If I stay on track I know that it will come back down.

Height: 5'6.5"
Goal Weight: 135
Just started on MFP a week ago so this will be my first full month challenge. I prefer weekly weigh-ins over daily since weight fluctuates and I like doing it on Monday's to get some motivation for the rest of the week. My goal is to try and stay consistent on the WEEKENDS! This has been my biggest problem so hoping I can improve on it this month.

@KBB1997
Welcome!1 -
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 My children are all grown since I originally made my will which changes things.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…..
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.
03/08 - 208.2 Pizza last night during the family dinner. I kept the meal smaller than my usual but I still probably deserve this.
03/09 – 206.8 That makes me smile today finally! That is a smidgen over starting weight. Now……to lose some weight this month!
03/10 – 204.8 Wow! That was a nice drop. That may explain the severe glucose drop again last night. This time it actually woke me out of a deep sleep which is quite unusual. Middle of the night food and drink remedy I thought would really hurt the scale but so far so good. My body is fighting me tooth and nail but slow and steady will win the race. As my weight improves, my glucose will improve too. When I drop and sustain for a bit, I will seek a medication check-up. The doctor won’t change a thing when my weight loss is only temporary downs and ultimately sustaining the higher weights. Another goal to reach for!
03/11 – 206.2 The two pound overnight loss was a bit drastic so my body has adjusted. Still moving downward in my trends and still down 0.6 from day before yesterday. I am happy to be on track with food and movement. I hope today will be another good day. I don’t always trust myself on one side of my brain, but the other side is the babysitter and will try to keep that unruly child in me in check!
03/12 – 207.0 Out to dinner. This number will pass. Family emergency today.
03/13 - 207.2 My daughter and 3 yr old grandson decided to move in last night in an emergency. This will be a challenge within a challenge. Menus will be challenging. I don’t know how long this will be for but I am glad my daughter and grandson are safe and okay. This could be a minute or awhile. We shall see.

March starting weight: 187
March goal: 184, but really my weekly goal is for the high spikes to be lower, and the lows to drop lower
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.
3/8 - 186.4 sigh. sigh. Slightly below last Monday though. I really wish my scale was consistent but it reflects my choices so there you go. 15min run w/ walk, laundry, and work today; hope to get the dogs out too.
3/9 - 185.2 fluid retention and I are old frenemies. 16min run w/ walk, didn't get the dogs out yesterday so will do so today. Dinner is leftover quiche.
3/10 - 185.2 disappointing, I thought I'd see a little movement today. No run/walk today but will make it to zumba tonight. Still haven't gotten the dogs out despite temps in the low 60s.
3/11 - 184.4 I did manage my 17min run yesterday, along with zumba. Today may be a rest day but I may manage the 18min run anyway.
3/12 - 183.4 sure looks like I just repeated last week. My plan for this weekend is to plan extra exercise, like finally getting the dogs outside for a walk, and to prelog my food (even for a restaurant). I have to figure out how not to undo all my hard work every weekend. I did my run yesterday (yay me!) so today is 19min.
3/13 - 184.0 No exercise yesterday. Today was a 90min walk, leg cramps dictated no run today.
3/14 -
I know I react to gluten, even though not technically allergic or celiac; now I'm trying to determine if I react to wine as well. So, wine tracking:
3/7, 183.0 - wine = 3/8, 184.62 -

@171lake Being at a similar age, height, and weight at one point, I'm cheering you on!
Thank you so much! I’m really trying and, even if the weight loses is slow right now, it’s a commitment to myself and a healthier life. Even if it’s 2 lbs a month until I can get back to a gym, that’s 2 lbs that I don’t have anymore.3 -

I don’t always trust myself on one side of my brain, but the other side is the babysitter and will try to keep that unruly child in me in check!
03/12 – 207.0 Out to dinner. This number will pass. Family emergency today.
03/13 - 207.2 My daughter and 3 yr old grandson decided to move in last night in an emergency. This will be a challenge within a challenge. Menus will be challenging. I don’t know how long this will be for but I am glad my daughter and grandson are safe and okay. This could be a minute or awhile. We shall see.
03/14 - 207.2 Traveling today for renovation supplies. Lunch will be out.

I'm realizing currently not to pay attention to what my weight is doing every single day because things are going great. Just took a notch off my belt. 1-2 weeks is where I should be more worried although I like to log it daily regardless. I've decided to start eating a more reasonable amount of food and exercise more instead of eating less and doing less. I'm sure it'll mellow out soon. Patience is key.5 -

Total loss for March:4 -
March starting weight: 187
March goal: 184, but really my weekly goal is for the high spikes to be lower, and the lows to drop lower
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.
3/8 - 186.4 sigh. sigh. Slightly below last Monday though. I really wish my scale was consistent but it reflects my choices so there you go. 15min run w/ walk, laundry, and work today; hope to get the dogs out too.
3/9 - 185.2 fluid retention and I are old frenemies. 16min run w/ walk, didn't get the dogs out yesterday so will do so today. Dinner is leftover quiche.
3/10 - 185.2 disappointing, I thought I'd see a little movement today. No run/walk today but will make it to zumba tonight. Still haven't gotten the dogs out despite temps in the low 60s.
3/11 - 184.4 I did manage my 17min run yesterday, along with zumba. Today may be a rest day but I may manage the 18min run anyway.
3/12 - 183.4 sure looks like I just repeated last week. My plan for this weekend is to plan extra exercise, like finally getting the dogs outside for a walk, and to prelog my food (even for a restaurant). I have to figure out how not to undo all my hard work every weekend. I did my run yesterday (yay me!) so today is 19min.
3/13 - 184.0 No exercise yesterday. Today was a 90min walk, leg cramps dictated no run today.
3/14 - 184.8 wine last night and gluten, so surprised it's less than a pound jump. Had a hot bath last night, and my legs feel much better; am going to sit in hot water several times this week and hope to get my legs stretched out and not-so-tight. Today ran 20min + 23min walk (an episode of Hell's Kitchen). Dinner is baked salmon and shrimp, cauliflower.

I know I react to gluten, even though not technically allergic or celiac; now I'm trying to determine if I react to wine as well. So, wine tracking:
3/7, 183.0 - wine = 3/8, 184.6
3/13, 184.0 - wine+gluten = 3/14, 184.8 (not a fair data point as I had wine + gluten, and I'm really just trying to see how I react to wine)

I hope today I can have a much better day and move on from here and bring my weight back down. I recently started building up my home gym so been killing it in my basement 💪🏻❤️👍🏻.

Hi, I weight in daily so I will be updating daily :-)
starting late on march 13th at 87.55 kg. End of month goal - 86 kg.
Goal weight 80 kg
13.3 87.55 kg - logged on to mfp and downloaded the app, first time in a long long time. logged breakfast and excited to get started.
14.3 87.85 kg - yesterday was really good. logged everything, ate well and within calorie budget. got my 10k steps in. would have loved to see the scale go down but I know it doesn't always work like that. Logged breakfast today and will keep going.
15.3 87.55 kg - yesterday was good. I had an endless lunch and was hungry all of the second half of the day, but finished the day under my calories and with 10k steps.
Today I am pretty much out of fruits and vegetables, they will arrive with an order tomorrow but it would be smart to get some now too.
Kids need to get get tested for covid today (we are vaccinated...) so that's a bit stressful, and either way the eldest will be home for the next month because of being near a positive classmate and that will merge into a 2.5 week long spring break anyways, so not easy... but even more reason to keep going and not find excuses because it seems like every week or almost everyday I can find a reason for having a hard time so I should not care about what I eat. But, I do care, even more...

Daily weighing keeps me accountable and prevents me from a few extra snacks the night before.
Week 1:
3/1: 136.0 - Up from last month's end weight.
3/2: 135.0 - Going to use this as my month start weight, not yesterday's fluctuation.
3/3: 133.0 - Well, that is more like it!! Hit this number once before, very happy to see it.
3/4: 132.2 - New low : - )

3/6: 134.9 - Ouch.
3/7: 133.8 - More reasonable. I will get in extra workouts today, day off.
Week 2:
3/8: 134.7 - Completely on track. I try not to get too upset with these jumps from day to day.
3/9: 134.7 - Had hoped for a slight decrease.
3/10: 133.3 - I like the fluctuations better when they go in this direction : - )
3/11: 133.4
3/12: 133.7
3/13: 134.1 - Ow, no reason for the gain. If I stay on track I know that it will come back down.
