    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 Oct 31st): 188.2
    Goal: 183.2 (Five lb Loss)
    Actual Loss for November: xxxxx

    **************************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME************************************

    11/01…...189.4…..(Trend Weight 187.7)….. Pizza, Candy and all things Halloween. Not good.

    11/02.…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 187.8)….. Scale down, trend up and that is something to work on! With all the medical travel and surgery behind me, I hope to start seeing more willpower and weight loss in my November.

    11/03.…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 187.9}….. Good news from the University Hospital. No sign of any cancer in the lumpectomy. Yay! Feeling wonderful today and filled with hope for the future. Today is my daughter’s birthday who lives with me again. There will be cake, ice cream and a special dinner. The calories and carbs will be out the window, but I will still practice portion control and look brightly to my days ahead and my future overall. God is Good.


    11/04.…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.1)….. Okay. The celebrations are all over. Today I will pawn the leftovers off on my workers and make a good dietary plan regardless of what the others in the house do. Today I take my grandsons to their hair appointments. I always get them lunch or dinner afterward (dinner today because it’s a school day). I will not be ordering for myself. Getting serious here . I need a good streak!

    11/05.…..188.8…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. I was much more mindful of my diet yesterday, as planned. Not a lot of exercise or water due to being extra busy. However, my trend weight is still going up due to my choices over the past two weeks. Time to turn that around too. Mini-goal, get that trend weight turning in the opposite direction!

    11/06.…..188.0…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. Progress!

    11/07.…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. A day very similar to yesterday but with no TMI, I am showing the expected gain. It’s disheartening but all part of the journey. Raking today should bring in more steps and calorie burn. I want to focus on a very healthy dinner tonight again too even though it is daughter’s day off and she is a foodie.

    11/08.…..189.2…..(Trend Weight 188.2)…..I burned over 700 calories just on yard raking yesterday but clearly, you can’t outrun the fork!

    11/09.…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.4)….. No TMI again. Very early weigh-in after, essentially, no sleep and all those other excuses. Yesterday it was not on my daughter. It was on me. I know what good habits are. I know what low calorie is and what low carb can do to help me. I recognize the right foods. It’s time to stop glancing at it all and start staring at what I need to do. It has been out of control since just before my surgery.

    11/10-.…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.6)….. bingeing is not the way to lose weight. I’ve got to get control here!

    Testing out the changes. I saw mentioned that they are no longer supporting BBCodes. I was using color to highlight. No more color. No more bold or italics. No more hiding some of the history in spoilers to make the current messages more visible. 

    Looks like copy and paste spaces out my lines because it is using new paragraph. hmmmm 

    NOT A FAN!


    If you know how to use a new spoiler please let me know!

    Yeah I hate the changes. Way too much harsh white space all over the page. Font is too big. When I do a line return it puts two empty lines. I see some people only get one line. I'm not sure why that is. Maybe app vs web? Plus for me some of the buttons overlay the verbiage. Everything takes twice as long to scroll through and I have set it to 80% otherwise it's even worse. It makes it difficult to see when one post ends and another one starts. I hope they can fix this.
