January-March 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 STARTING WEIGHT (FROM Dec 31, 2021): 199.8
CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 184.8
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.

01/15-NO SCALE-(Trend Weight: DNW)- Arrived back home from the overnight travel about 9:00 PM. Party was very well attended and a lot of fun. Too much food. I skipped much of it but what I ate didn’t exactly have zero calories or carbs. Travel again tomorrow morning for rehab. I’m going to try to get back home quickly. Ice storm starting tomorrow evening. I’ve been doing pretty good on the diet front (until the travel and party). Home now and back in the saddle again.

01/22-197.4-(Trend Weight: 197.8)- I am thrilled after so much travel of late that I have managed to drop so nicely on the scale. Watching both calories and carbs is really making a difference. I’m also feeling pretty strong and committed right now. I love when I feel this way. It’s when I make the most progress and stick to my guns most often. Hoping to keep up the momentum.

Hello all, I’m Amanda from Michigan. I belong to 2 other challenges on here but thought I would give this one a try! I will post my weight on Mondays.
I lost 45 pounds in 2022 and would like to lose at the very least 45 more in 2023. I have some scary medical procedures coming up in January and have no idea how they will affect my weight!
Good luck to everyone!

Target: lose 12 lbs / 12 weeks
Not going as fast as I hoped, but keeping at it and still going down. Lots of challenges ahead this week, so a long ride on the spinning bike to get in shape this afternoon!

No, I haven’t been picture perfect, but overall, I’ve been kicking some *kitten*! I’m really working on pre-planning my food, making better choices during my many travels and getting in 30 minutes or more of exercise daily NO MATTER WHAT, NO EXCUSES!!!! It’s paying off.

I hope the momentum keeps up. We all know how easy it is to start sliding backwards on this slippery slope! Good job to everyone who showed up this month. Onward to the next part of the challenge, February, the shortest month and amount of time to get things done. Let’s do this!
