    @Cluelessmama1979 I personally count as a success the days that I'm over MFP's set goal but still in a deficit. MFP wants me at 1412 to lose a lb/week but anywhere under 1700 I'm happy with. I self-sabotage if I get too strict with calorie counting, though. It's definitely a personal choice!

    I switched my goal to maintenance on my second day on the app :D For my peronality, it's not good to see a glaring red number if I go even 1kcal over my goal (makes me feel like I need to punish myself or something). Now I just make sure that I have around 500kcal remaining from my maintenance calories by the of the day and I'm golden.

    For me personally, it's much more motivating to see that I'm still in, for example, a 250kcal deficit as opposed to a 250kcal surplus from my pound a week goal set by MFP :)

    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 April 30th): 203.2
    Goal: xxxxx (Five lb Loss) 198.2

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

    05/01…...204.6…..(Trend Weight 202.5)….. April was not good to me. Or maybe, I was not good to April. Yeah, I think that’s it.

    05/02.…..204.6…..(Trend Weight 202.7)….. I had my weight too low yesterday. Typo now fixed. I should have done better but I couldn’t get satiated yesterday. I think my bigger body is fighting for more food so I am going to have to plan more volume with less calories and carbs to get through this. According to Fitbit, I’ve had more sleep last night but I feel hungover. Is there such a thing as a food hangover?

    05/03.…..203.8…..(Trend Weight 202.8}….. I’m grateful for any progress but I know I can do better. I am not doing Keto at this time but I definitely should be watching the carbs a bit more. I need to better keep them in mind when making my choices. That would make a huge difference for my weight and my glucose levels. Now just doing it…….

    05/04.…..xxxxx…..(Trend Weight xxxxx)…..
    05/05.…..xxxxx…..(Trend Weight xxxxx)…..

    Hi! I’m excited to join in another challenge! I started back in October and was 163. I maintained 152 in April. I hope to see 150 this month. My main focus will be on my workouts. I’ve signed up for a Step Challenge.

    Heaviest weight: 165
    May 1st weight: 154
    Current weight: 150

    May weight lost so far: 4
    Weight lost this year: 7

    Goals:
    🌼 Weekday 45 min. base runs
    🌼 Weekend long runs / Zumba
    🌼 Track steps / weight & log daily
    🌼 Take rest days as needed
    🌼 Go out 3 times max weekly
    🌼 Eat half of restaurant food
    🌼 Drink 8 glasses of water daily

    May 01 - 154 (went out/ walk 2 hr)
    May 02 - 153 (leftovers/ walk 1 hr)
    May 03 - 150 (went out/ walk 45m)

    Ok, this is likely TMI. I’ve chosen to go through a divorce and move this month so the 5K goal in June is out for now and my weight is kinda all over the place. I’m still going to be active, but I may be fairly inconstant this month.
