October-December challenge!

My name is Donna. I am 62 years old, 5' 5" tall. I live in the Midwest of USA. I am in remission for breast cancer, have Type 2 Diabetes, an under active thyroid, high blood pressure and cholesterol, some osteoporosis and coronary heart disease with a stent in my heart. I am working to get healthier. I know losing weight and exercising more will help all of these issues.


CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 183.4
CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM Sept 30, 2022): 198.4
CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:


Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.



10/01-198.6-(Trend Weight: 198.8)-

10/02-199.0-(Trend Weight: 198.8)- Last night was full of cravings and hunger and the late-night snacks are embarrassing. Aiming for a much better day today. My trend weight is sticking and giving me the opportunity to turn this ship back around. I think I’ll take that opportunity! Feeling hopeful.


10/09-200.8-(Trend Weight: 199.5)- An overnight increase of almost 3 pounds this morning due to my heart condition. I couldn’t take my waterpill yesterday and am traveling today, so no pill again. My weight can fluctuate and go up to 5 pounds higher just from the fluids in my legs and abdomen. Ugh. So hard to track progress like this but I just have to trust that the changes I’m making will make a difference in the long run, even if it’s hard to track.

Hi. My goal by the end of December is to be firmly off this plateau I've resided on since Jan 1st. Wt has bounced same 4 lbs up and down. Am an active sr. but have to be mindful of how much I push myself to avoid flaring hip and knee issues.
Last nite was a huge win for me. Didn't eat anything after dinner. yeah! This'll be the key to my wt loss success.

Oct 1st: 164.2
Oct 8th: 163.8
Oct 13th: Was stuck on a plateau of 163, then up and down 1 lb. Now have shifted to a plateau of 165!
And it's midway thru October. Unfortunately this is a pattern.
Today / this evening, I HAVE to remember all the lessons, all the tools I have to get thru today as my first totally on plan day in ages.
Have decided I must check in here daily.
10th 166.4
11th 165.4
12th 166.2
13th 164.8.
14th: 164

I am going to try to be very mindful of what I poke in my pie hole today while away on the 300 mile round trip.

Last weekend we had events Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I'm really happy to say that I still went down some already this week after a few indulgences at the events. I'm trying to mostly stay on track during the week and just enjoy the festivities at the events. Another big weekend full of food and fun coming up plus a Family Costume Night with a treat path at Chick-Fil-A tonight.

I'm working off my lockdown weight.
