    Hi all, great inspiration...although i gained a little this week. My youngest son graduated this weekend with a Doctorate in Law, so we went to Washington, DC to be with him and celebrate, next weekend he'll be home and we will celebrate again...

    Also, while we all welcome things back to normalcy, i'm finding that with social and business functions back, it's hard to stick with my diet and exercise plan....I really have to think about it, and try stay within it, but it's so easy to go with the flow. However, my motto is, "We are exactly where we want to be in life, if not we would do something about it", which is why we are all here, doing something about it, at least this part of our lives.

    Have a great week everyone!

    My name is Donna and I am turning 61 in May. I live in the Midwest of the USA. 5' 5" tall. My starting weight was 253. I have relapsed in the past year and need to get back on track. I am type 2 diabetic and in remission for breast cancer. Health is my #1 priority.

    My goal in this challenge is to lose 15 pounds and land firmly in Onederland.
    I would love to join! Here are my weights so far:


    Apr 01: 207.6
    Apr 05: 206.6
    Apr 12: 207.4
    Apr 19: 206.0
    Apr 26: 204.0
    Apr 30: 206.2

    May 01: 206.6
    May 03: 207.4
    May 10: My Birthday! 208.8 I am celebrating this upcoming Sunday with family. This new higher weight is from travel and bad choices. The buck stops here!

    ...I let myself give in to the sense of being overwhelmed and "treated" myself too much convenience and junk. Back to focus today.

    I like to take it one food choice at a time and think about it as an individual experience and make a conscious choice to eat something on the healthier side. Kind of like taking life one day at a time. It’s hard and this method may not be for you because different things work for different people. It is just forcing yourself to take the time to think about the choice you are making. Doing it enough though makes it a habit.

    Wishing you the best and less stress in the future.
