    My name is Donna. I am 5โ€™ 5โ€ tall, 63 years old and from the Michigan 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!
    250โ€™s; 240โ€™s; 230โ€™s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180โ€™s; 170's; 160's; 150โ€™s



    Starting Weight (from July 31st): 193.8
    Goal: 189.8 (Four lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx

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


    Weight in blue makes me blue because itโ€™s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because itโ€™s a loss. Weight in black means no change.


    08/01-193.6-(Trend Weight 195.2)-

    08/02-194.6-(Trend Weight 195.2)-


    08/03-196.8-(Trend Weight 195.3)-


    08/04-195.4-(Trend Weight 195.3)- Babysitting last night and today. Being with Owen always warms my heart. In regards to weight: TMI helped because otherwise, it was not the greatest of days. The meals were pre-planned and fine. The snacks were through the roof. However, I did some quick swaps and it helped. Gotta stay focused today. It will be easy and fine all day, it is when the moon comes out that the monsters awake.


    08/05-196.6-(Trend Weight 195.4)- I went to a local festival and ate some baked goods that I know I had no business eating but the freshness really lured me in. Good music, auctions, crafts and more. It was nice to get out and walk around a bit.

    @deepwoodslady I do tend to avoid a lot of higher fat foods...but lately I've noticed that I am also having problems with sugar...I don't tend to eat much sugar but it's the only thing that makes sense from the other night...๐Ÿ˜ข

    Forgive me if I'm doing it wrong but I thought maybe it is a matter of cutting and pasting previous post to keep logging weight etc.

    I started with this group in July. I am Mary, 69 years old, CW 170 lbs, GW 150, or maybe UGW 140. It would be great if my blood pressure improved with weight loss. I've lost 15 lbs this year, and lost another 6 but gained it back after a trip and haven't been able to get back down to 164. Logging and weighing might help me see how to make more progress. MFP isn't easy for me to work with but I'm starting to get used to it -- I'll be putting in my daily weight and checking for any change in my measurements. Still trying EF 16/8 with Keto but not married to it, if I don't make progress. I am coming to believe exercise is the missing component for me, and I'm working on regaining strength from long-lasting leg and ankle problems resulting from Guillain-Barre syndrome so I can get more steps.

    I'm trying to eat way more vegetables! I know, I'm boring, but don't blame the veggies; they are so tasty.

    @joans1976 I started knitting a new sweater - which will take me a while. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
    @jm216 Just keep plugging; each "Boing" downward will go a little farther until 200s will be long gone.
