Don’t fret. Sometimes it takes a day or so for the scale to get it right. ⭐️1 -
My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 61 years old and from the Midwest USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s
Starting Weight (from August 23, 2021): 187.4
Goal: xxxxx (Six lb Loss): 181.4
08/24 – …..187.4…..(Trend Weight: 188.6) Thanks to Jill for offering this challenge! I am hoping to lose about 5 pounds per month but I added an extra pound (total 6) because I am starting in August. I, too, lose more weight when I log my food and exercise so I am hoping that doing so daily will keep me accountable. Good luck to all!
08/25 – …..187.0…..(Trend Weight: 188.5) Down a bit today. I know yesterday could have been filled with better choices and no last minute snacks. I will be traveling today so I will be eating dinner out which usually causes an uptick. I will push water and make up for any overages in the coming days. I am 100% committed to enjoying life, but getting healthy too!
08/26 – …..188.4…..(Trend Weight: 188.5) Thank Goodness for trends because the scale really jumped after the travel yesterday. I feel very sluggish today-no energy. A result of my bad eating and my sugar ingestion yesterday. As a T2D, I knew this was bound to happen and I didn’t listen to my own reasoning. Today I pay the price. Pushing water, walking and all healthy low cal and lower carb choices today. Part of my new lifestyle is to treat my body well after I’ve screwed up. Today is “be good to Donna day”. I will be eating right.
08/27 – DNW. Forgot to step on the scale before I started drinking cups of coffee. Early travel today to take a friend for a medical procedure. I’ll be eating at the hospital cafeteria. Hopefully something on the healthy side…..
08/28 – …..188.4…..(Trend Weight: 188.4) Scale weight the same but trend weight down slightly. I didn’t do to bad considering the huge amount of sitting during the travel and the food away from home. Today I hope to be back on track with my carefully planned meals at home. Thunderstorms are raging and expected rain all day. Renovation workers will be here all day and evening so there is a serious lack of inside privacy. My house has stairs so I will focus on go up and down all day just for steps and exercise.
08/29 – …..188.4…..(Trend Weight: 188.4) Stuck on this weight apparently. 3 hours sleep last night probably didn’t help. Otherwise, yesterday was a very good day. I easily closed all my circles on fitbit and was in the green on MFP. Hopefully I will see a change show up tomorrow. Sometimes it takes a couple of day either way.
08/30 – …..189.2…..(Trend Weight: 189.2) A couple of small snacks last night put me over the calorie limit, otherwise it was a very disciplined day (but a lazy movement day). Staying on track today and keeping some of my calories in the balance today in case it happens again tonight. Preparation is key!
08/31 – …..186.8…..(Trend Weight: 188.3) A better food day yesterday and some consistent movement. However, I visited a friend yesterday and there was some sitting. No food, just black coffee. I declined her offer of Danish. That is my NSV. Aiming for another accountable day today. One day, one step, one decision at a time!
09/01 – …..182.8…..(Trend Weight 187.8) I find this weight hard to believe today. 4 pound loss overnight??? (After a 2.4 loss the day before???) My scale is reliable and I stepped on it 3 times but I don’t trust this and consider it a fluctuation. I did everything right. I had TM. I finally slept over 4 and ½ hours which is good for me> But that is a bit much. Traveling today and tomorrow. Plenty of sitting and restaurant food. I’ll be home each night and will keep up with the posts. Friday morning my scale reading will not be pretty but that is how I roll.
09/02 - …..185.2…..(Trend Weight 187.5) This weight is more realistic (I didn’t trust yesterday’s as stated in yesterday’s post). More travel, sitting in car and doctors offices, and more restaurant food out-of-town today. Tomorrow will be the worst scale reading after 2 days in a row of travel. I will give myself 24-48 hours of shedding water and getting in normal movement over the weekend and I will consider whatever shows up on Sunday morning to be accurate. I won’t post any weight changes to MFP charts until then (although I will post them on the challenges). Lots more travel in the upcoming 2 weeks due to the cancer rechecks and scans. I am happy it is not snowy or icy yet. Many of these trips are quite long ones!

Current goal weight - 168
September start weight -214.6
September goal weight - 208.6
9/1 - 214.6
9/2 - 214.82 -
September weigh ins:
September 1: 190.4 took a walk for 34 minutes (1.8 miles) very tired today in bed before 7:30 pm.
September 2: 190.0- slept almost 14 hours. I needed it for sure and I didn’t do much in the way of intentions exercise. I did do lots of house work and had to go to a couple of stores to get some goodies for family this coming weekend. So I did not couch sit today and got in over 6k steps in. {down .4}4 -
Thank you Jill for offering this challenge! I am hoping to lose the 30+ pounds gained during pregnancy and the first couple hectic years after baby. I, too, lose more weight when I log my intake and do it in a group setting! I’m in!
8/31/2021: 147.7 lb
Can’t wait to officially start tomorrow!
9/1/2021: 147.4 lb. calories around 1400; took a walk; feel good and excited to get this started with all of you!
9/2/2021: 145.7 lb. The difference here mostly because of the different scales I used at another place today. Total calories around 1600 today. Had a busy day & had a couple sweet treats >_<… but overall feel good and didn’t let myself go out of control with sweet treats (I have a sweet tooth). Sleep much needed today.
