    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 STARTING WEIGHT (FROM July 31, 2021): 201.6
    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 186.6
    CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:


    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



    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.



    08/01-201.1-(Trend Weight: 201.4)-.
    08/08-196.4-(Trend Weight: 200.3)-

    Aug Start: 201.6
    Aug Actual: 200.0
    Aug Goal: 196.6
    Aug Loss: 1.6 lbs.

    Sept Loss: 1.6 lbs.

    Cumulative Weight Loss so Far: 3.2 lb LOSS



    10/01-198.6-(Trend Weight: 198.8)- 198.6 ….hmmm….A much better temperature than a weight! Hoping for some continued progress but bigger this time! Not greed, just goal.

    10/03-199.2-(Trend Weight: 198.8)- I’m not going to sabotage the progress I’ve made so far. I know it isn’t much, but it’s in the right direction and so desperately needed for my overall heart health and diabetes. Come on Donna! Who’s the boss here?

    10/10-199.8-(Trend Weight: 199.5)- It’s been a bad week full of travel and cravings. They seem to go hand-in-hand.

    10/17-200.6-(Trend Weight: 200.2)- I hope everyone will do their self breast check and schedule your mammogram. It saves lives and yours really matters! On the weight front, mine really went up due to much travel this past week, but I am making better choices when I’m on the road. Missing the movement and calorie burn though.

    10/24-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- I can’t believe I completely forgot to weigh this morning due to a small change in routine. Wow! Anyway, yesterday was so-so. My choices weren’t the greatest, but no big binge and no large meals. Not enough water or sleep so I’ll work on that today and tonight. It has not been a good week for my diet and I am up from last week, I just don’t have the current weight. It is, however, somewhere in the 2 pound range.

    10/31-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-



    Oct Start: 198.4
    Oct Actual: xxxxx
    Oct Goal: 193.4
    Oct Loss: xxxxx

    I've decided not to buy candy this year. Every year we have fewer trick or treaters so we will just go hand out candy at our daughter's house and see the grandchildren. If I were at home I would buy 6 bags and give out maybe 10 candy bars and eat all the rest.
