Don't think i'll make my goal of 153 by the end of the month but it was kind of a crazy goal anyway. So far down 5lbs 3 weeks in7 -
My name is Donna. I am 61 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.
Start Weight (from Nov 30 ): 189.2
Goal Weight: 184.2 (5 pound loss)
End of Challenge Weight: xxxxx
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)
Dec 01…..…..188.7…..(Trend Weight: 189.5)….. A horrible family loss today. This one will be hard to get past. Things are already spiraling out of control.
Dec 03…..…..189.8…..(Trend Weight: 189.5)…..
Dec 10…..…..189.8…..(Trend Weight: 189.4)….. It’s very difficult to be without my brother, especially this time of year. He was only 54. I just want him back. I am trying to get into the spirit for the sake of my children and grandchildren. I am decorating but haven’t even started shopping yet and shopping means a lot of far travel (I’m in a very rural area), or waiting on the mail to arrive. So I know I need to get my butt in gear but I just feel to weak. Dieting and counting my calories/carbs has been non-existent. Exercise other than normal housework has been ziltch. I know this doesn’t solve anything. I’m going to start over with one small change per day through December because I’ve been jolted enough. His health wasn’t good but the end came faster than expected and I already feel like the world has turned upside down. I am asking for your patience with me, my friends.
Dec 17…..…..189.6…..(Trend Weight: 190.2)….. I’m still eating my emotions and not planning like I should be. There have been some small changes that I’ve promised myself but I really need to plan for unexpected hunger better. Also that night time snacking has got to go! This week’s weigh-in shows a small decrease in actual weight but an increase in trend due to the ups & downs of the week. If I can keep the scale moving down, the trend will follow. Any plan is better than no plan!
Dec 24…..…..192.4…..(Trend Weight: 190.9)….. Another death this week. This time it was a dear friend age 55 from an asthma attack. A beautiful memorial service but so sad, she was too young. I’ve been eating in sporadic ways. Sometimes good, sometimes bad over this past week. I’m up a little over 3 pounds this month. The only thing I’ve lost is my brother and my friend. I will try to re-focus after the holidays.
Dec 31…..…..xxxxx…..(Trend Weight: xxxxx)…..
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Heaviest weight: 175.4 in early 2013.
Original MFP starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
November 30 (Starting Weight): - 149.2 (10-day average 150.6)
December goal - 148
Ultimate goal - Range between 145 - 150
I report scale weight and (ten day average weight), and I post on Saturdays. Normally. Since it's the last day of the year, I'm jumping in a day early.
Nov 30: 149.2 (10-day average 150.6)
Dec 4: 148.2 (10-day average 149.4)
Dec 11: 150.0 (10-day average 149.7)
Dec 18: 151.4 (10-day average 150.2)
Dec 25: 153.0 (10-day average 151.3)
Dec 31: 150.4 (10-day average 150.8)
Total loss for December Close enough to zero to be de minimis.
My ten-day average from January 1, 2021: 152.4. I ended the year a couple pounds down, which is better than a gain. I obviously did gain DURING the year, because my average weight for 2021 is 153.4. Not only did I end below where I started, I ended below average for the year. I'll call that a success.
I am ending the year about the top of my maintenance range; just a wee bit over. I will get back to where I was in 2020 during 2022. This past year has just been a shitshow for most everyone in some way or another or many ways.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
